What Am I reading Wednesday (11/03/2021)
Look at that, it's a new What Am I Reading Wednesday post!
Title: The Wedding Planners
Author: Erin Thomson
First Reading: Yes! Erin is one of the lovely writers I've met through the Lemon Friday crowd.
Initial Impression: I got a behind-the-scenes peek of the development of this book via Erin's Instagram page and had a feeling this was going to be a story I'd enjoy.
Final Thoughts: It's been a long time since a contemporary romance (I tend to lean more towards historical and fantasy romance) has not only held my attention, but completely pulled me in! The chemistry between the two main characters was consistent without derailing the story and the steam level was just right.
[CW: Mentions of past partner abuse, workplace power imbalance, anxiety and panic attacks]

Official Synopsis:
One explosive night. No Names. No numbers. No strings. And Jemma and
Nash were never supposed to see each other again. Which is why being
thrown together to plan a wedding together is probably a recipe for
disaster.
Meet Jemma. Her growing catering business is toast
thanks to one Facebook post. With her reputation in tatters and all her
clients gone, she’s stuck cooking hipsters brunch at a local cafe. When
she’s offered the opportunity to plan a social media darling’s wedding,
it’s the answer to all her prayers. There is one small snag, the new gig
also comes with an assistant, the bride-to-be’s brother. Who just so
happens to be the sexy as hell nameless guy she hasn’t been able to stop
thinking about since he left her bed.
Enter Nash. Hotshot chef
whose life has spiraled out of control. His wife of 6 years walked out
with some guy named Trent and he hasn’t cooked a single thing since.
He’s back in New York for a fresh start and to try and make sense of his
life. That started well with a night tangled around an anonymous
magnetic blonde. But the very last thing he expected was to see her
again, or that they’d have to work together to plan his sister's
wedding.
Will these two headstrong chefs be able to maintain
their professional distance to get the job done or will the simmering
chemistry be too much to resist?
