Southern Bombshell (North Carolina Highlands, #5)
Jessica Peterson
The Wedding Planner’s Rulebook: Keep the bride happy. Keep the wedding party out of trouble. Never let anyone know you’ve been in love with the groom for years. I lived by these rules. Until Nate Kingsley. The Capulets and Montagues have nothing on the Beauregards and Kingsleys. Our families have feuded for centuries, and Nate was always forbidden—which made fooling around with him that much more delicious. But then I fell for him, and he fell off the face of the earth, ghosting me without so much as a goodbye. Fast-forward two years: as an expert in romance, I’m a wedding planner to the rich and famous. I never expected Nate to show up at my office, least of all with a shiny new fiancée on his arm. She’s got money to burn, and she wants me to plan the most extravagant wedding of my career. It’s a make-or-break moment for my business. I convince myself I can do Nate’s wedding and keep my feelings for him in check, even if he does look good. Really, really good. But when the secrets we buried years ago come to light, what kept us apart suddenly binds us together. Even if my heart belongs to Nate, and his belongs to me, he belongs to someone else. And that’s a rule we absolutely cannot break. SOUTHERN BOMBSHELL is a full length, standalone romance coming to KindleUnlimited January 25, 2021! Amazon Pre-order is NOW LIVE!

I was rolling and cartwheeling with pure joy. I also do believe that this was the best way to wrap up the series. I've been longing for this couple to have their own story ever since I read the first book, and I'm quite satisfied with this book.
This book exceeded my expectations in every way! Milly's utter badass character combined with Nate's broody yet hopeless romantic character's makes their second-chance romance genuinely remarkable. I couldn't stop swooning as their narrative continued to pull at my emotions. I was beyond delighted for Milly to finally have her moment—to find a once-in-a-lifetime love with Nate. At first, their journey was devastating, but destiny stepped in and gave them the opportunity to restore what had been lost. Their sizzling chemistry was more intense than ever as they rediscovered mutual trust. I was completely immersed in Milly and Nate's journey, from the anguish to the drama, the agony, and the exquisitely written love story. The theme of family runs deep in this series, and this book was no exception. And I genuinely love all of the Beauregards.
I feel like I'm still not ready to say goodbye to this series. I had a great time watching those passionate characters' endeavors. The significant appearances of the previous couples (and their children) in the epilogue struck me as being quite poignant. It was enough to make my heart explode and burn with genuine joy, especially when we got to witness things from June's (their mother) point of view. Additionally, I wanted to acknowledge Jason Clarke and Virginia Rose for narrating the series; without them, the book—or rather, the series—would seem dull and uninteresting. They did a excellent job of giving the characters a sense of life, and I genuinely love that.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed gobbling up this series. I thought the relationships, the banter, and the connections between each pair were interesting, intriguing, and fascinating. The trope of the found family that characterizes this interwoven series is incredibly charming and endearing, and so much well-written perfectly. I heartily recommend reading this series if you're seeking for a fancy small-town romance with scorching banter and heart-stopping scenes between each couple!!!!❤️
