Only For The Week

You are cordially invited to the wedding of Amerie Cross and Arnold Hightower.


And now a toast from the maid of honor, Janelle Cross!


Hi everyone, thank you for being here.


Some of you may know me as the sister of the bride.


Some of you may know me as the ex-girlfriend of the groom.


But I'm willing to bet none of you know me as the woman secretly sleeping with the best man.


I am.


I know, I'm just as surprised as you.


It was only supposed to be for the week; but every kiss, adventure, and stolen moment with Rome Martin feels like it could last forever.


Oh well. What happens in Tulum stays in Tulum.


Right?

Rome stole my heart. It was such a great welcome to read about romance without infidelity. I loved how the characters were so real. Janelle’s issues with her family are everyday issues. I loved all the success. I loved seeing Rome as a true hero. He didn’t put Janelle through drama then circle back. It was the best two weeks for me!

Definitely cute but the characters pissed me off so bad. Rome and Javier were the heroes of this book!

It was a cute story! My only critique is that everything seemed to move too fast with not enough tension building, but that's just my preference!
