Always a Bridesmaid by Cindi Myers She's sworn off weddings... After two failed relationships and six stints as a bridesmaid, Stephanie Ludlow is convinced she's man-poison. So when her hormones point due south to her sexy—but not so charming—new landlord, she can't help the sparks that fly. It's a good thing she's declared a strict "no sex" policy, because Mike Brubaker might as well have "it's not happening" tattooed across his delectable chest. He's sworn off love... Spurned single dad Mike has learned the hard way women are the source of all evil and should be avoided at any cost. And that definitely includes his gorgeous new tenant. But when they're thrown together in the wedding party from hell, both will stop at nothing to fight the heat building between them. Giving in is not an option for either of them. May the best man—or woman—win.

Beautiful blondes are dying in Squirrel Hollow, Connecticut, and everyone in town thinks they can solve the mystery in two words: Dakotah Jones. Accused of offing the homecoming queen a decade earlier, Kody reluctantly returns to Squirrel Hollow to serve as Maid of Honor at her best friend’s wedding. The ink on the invitations is barely dry before bridesmaids start dropping and rumors start flying. Again. Time has done nothing to soften the heart of newspaper editor Justin Melrose, either, as he leads the charge to arrest Kody. Again. Someone is playing a psychotic game of déjà vu and Kody's ''it.'' Again. But now, armed only with indignation, intuition and an aunt who is a retired spy (well, that’s the word around town at any rate), Kody tries to clear her name, bring a killer to justice, figure out if she should date—or hate—the police detective on the case, and pull off the wedding of the decade ... all before the last bridesmaid dies.

In the tradition of Sloane Crosley, Mindy Kaling, and Katie Heaney, a hilarious and insightful memoir about one New York City millennial’s journey to find herself, her dream career, and true love, all while juggling a truly unique job as the world’s only professional bridesmaid. After moving to New York City in her mid-twenties to pursue her dream of writing—and not living on the “Upper East Side” of her parents’ house anymore—Jen Glantz looked forward to a future of happy hours and Sunday brunches with her besties. What she got instead were a string of phone calls that began with, “Jen, I have something exciting to tell you!” and ended with, “I’d be honored if you would be my bridesmaid.” At first she was delighted, but it wasn’t long before she realized two things: all of her assets were tied up in bridesmaid dresses, and she herself was no closer to finding The One. She couldn't do much about the second thing (though her mother would beg to differ), but she could about the first. One (slightly tipsy) night, Jen posted an ad on Craigslist advertising her services as a professional bridesmaid. When she woke up the next morning, it had gone viral. What began as a half-joke suddenly turned into a lifetime of adventure for Jen–and more insight into the meaning of love than she was getting from OKCupid—as she walked down the aisle at stranger after stranger’s wedding. Fresh, funny, and surprisingly sweet, Always a Bridesmaid (For Hire) is an entertaining reminder that even if you don’t have everything together, you can still be a total boss—or, at the very least, a BFF to another girl in need.

This wedding season, she’ll meet her match. As a bridesmaid-for-hire, Anna Dyer lives and breathes weddings. She’s not only the wedding planner, but she’s also the bride’s BFF, her confidante, and sometimes even her therapist. Yet all of Anna’s experience is useless when she’s forced to work with the dreamy grump Rowan Caldwell. Sure, Rowan might be a scrumptious hunk of manliness. But this handsome grump loathes weddings. Even worse? Rowan concocts a crazy scheme for them to be each other’s plus-ones for wedding season. He says it’ll make things more convenient. (How romantic!) Anna isn’t worried, though. She can play Rowan’s fake girlfriend without catching feelings. But love? It has other plans…

What do you do after you walk down the aisle in four weddings in a few months-none of them your own? What's left after you've donned the must-have-not dresses of the season, forked over your cash, and fake-smiled your way through countless photos? After you've dealt with the smashed guest, the smooshed cake, the dashed hopes, and the missed bouquets? That's what Cate Padgett is starting to wonder, as she embarks on stint after stint on the sidelines, watching friends swap bar-hopping for baby-naming...while her own love life goes nowhere fast. But is Cate unwilling to settle down-or just unwilling to settle? And can anyone really judge her if they haven't walked in her dyed-to-match shoes? Wild, witty, and full of weddings to cry over, Always the Bridesmaid is an endearingly romantic comedy about standing out in the crowd even when everyone's wearing the same celery-green dress...and daring to make every day The Happiest Day of Your Life.
