Estranged exes must stick close together to save their best friend’s wedding after a string of disasters in this swoony and steamy second-chance romance from the USA Today bestselling author of You, with a View.
Georgia Woodward lives by her lists, none more so than the one about her ex, Eli Mora. It’s full of the ironclad dos and don’ts they’ve been following since she returned to the Bay Area after their cataclysmic breakup five years ago.
With the wedding of their mutual best friend, Adam, looming, and them about to step into their roles as best woman and man, Georgia’s never needed it more. She refuses to threaten their tight-knit friend group with her messy—and still very present—feelings. The rules on that list will keep her cool, calm, and compartmentalized.
What’s not on her list? Eli arriving from New York with a new rule-breaking attitude or the all-inclusive venue burning to the ground, leaving the bride and groom in dire straits. Nor does she anticipate Adam asking her and Eli to help him make a miracle happen. Together.
As Georgia and Eli rush up to Napa Valley to pull off the perfect wedding, their old chemistry comes back in technicolor. Somewhere between cake tastings gone wrong, disastrous DJ auditions, and Eli’s heated attention, Georgia starts recognizing the man she fell in love with before. And if she lets herself break her rules, she might find what they’re building isn’t the something old that ruined them—it’s a chance at something new.

Starred review from December 1, 2024
An unrelenting series of disasters leading up to her best friend's wedding in Napa is no match for Georgia Woodward's list-making skills, even if she has to work closely with the wedding's other "best person," her ex-boyfriend Eli Mora. Georgia is expecting Eli to continue following the list of rules they set up five years ago to keep their best friend trio from crumbling, but Eli appears to have gone rogue. He no longer seems to be the workaholic, absent boyfriend Georgia had to rescue her heart from, but the open, tender man she first fell in love with. As they attend cake tastings and turn the Napa Valley vineyard they both worked at as teens into the wedding venue Adam and his bride-to-be only dreamed of, Georgia and Eli find their present chemistry colliding with their past feelings. Soon they begin to wonder if it's time to toss away their rules and lists just like a bridal bouquet. VERDICT Kyla Garcia gorgeously narrates Joyce's (You, with a View) single-POV romance, bringing lush emotion to Georgia and Eli's second-chance relationship. A must-listen for those who enjoy Tarah DeWitt and Kate Clayborn.--Elizabeth Gabriel
