Eleven months
ago, Evelyn Harper went undercover to investigate Tate Reynolds as a viable
love interest and potential boyfriend for a wealthy client. What began as a
temporary job transformed into an exciting new career and more significantly,
the love of her life.
Now the two are
planning their own walk down the aisle. Except their path is crowded with a few
bumps along the way. The urgent investigation of a family matter. A sexy new
client. Pregnant bridesmaids, an ex, and a sprinkle of cold feet leaves the
couple stumbling toward their big day.
Forever is a
long time, but Evie and Tate are determined to get hitched no matter what life
throws their way. Will they make it to the wedding or uncover more challenges
than a young couple in love can handle?
This novella is
the forth book in the Uncovering Love series, and while it can be read as a
standalone, it contains major spoilers.
“So,
want to confide in your best friend why the most relaxed bride in all of
history has suddenly developed a case of jitters?”
“What?”
Am I that obvious? Kate’s glare tells me I am. “Fine. I’m nervous.
That’s normal.”
“But
you’re not an average bride. What gives?”
“I just
had this picture in my mind of how the day would go, you know? And it’s not
about good weather, though that would be nice, or how extravagant my dress is,
even though it’s really the most beautiful thing I’ve ever worn, or if my hair
looks perfect, though a good hair day gives a girl confidence to take on the
world—”
“Evie.”
“It’s .
. . I didn’t expect my sister to be sad on my wedding day. But now, with
everything going on with Drew, I don’t see how this ends any differently.”
“Oh,
Evie.” Kate frowns.
“I
know. It’s completely selfish. But it’s an important day, and I wanted those
celebrating around us to be happy. You have Jon. Carly has Derek. I’ve always
thought my sister and Drew had the perfect marriage. They’re the example of
what I’ve always wanted. And now . . .”
“See.
This is why weddings are stupid,” Kate offers helpfully.
“What?”
I straighten my spine.
“Evie.
Your wedding day is just another day.”
It’s
all I can do to not roll my eyes. “Tell me how you really feel.”
“I
will. It’s a day. It’s an important moment, yes, but it’s only a moment. You
and Tate have your entire lives ahead of you. Enjoy your wedding, sure, but
don’t stack expectations all around it, because life is out of your control.
What’s happening with your sister sucks, but we don’t know the entire story.
And even if we never do, it’s out of your control.”
I pick
at the edge of my paper napkin. “God, this is so stressful. We should’ve
eloped.”
“Don’t
you dare!” Kate glares. “I won’t miss my best friend’s wedding. Also, I have to
witness you voluntarily wearing heels.”
“About
that . . . I’m not.” I cringe because I know her too well.
“What?”
she almost screams.
“I
bought white Chucks. I’m good.” I shrug, hoping she’ll let my choice of
footwear go.
She
shakes her head but holds her tongue as Joe returns with a plate of fried
appetizers and two giant glasses of soda. As soon as he leaves she pins me with
a hard glare. “Now that’s the most upsetting thing you’ve said all
night.”
I push
the mozzarella closer to her, fried cheese a balm for all things upsetting.
“Kate,
it’ll be fine.” I take a bite, chew, and swallow with a grin. “It’s out of your
control.”
She
picks up a fried zucchini slice and dips it in ranch dressing. “Remember that
at your bachelorette party next week. You know what they say about payback.”
Her eyes dance with amusement as she fills her mouth with food.
I smile sweetly and pull the plate of food closer to my side of
the table. “Is it too late to pick a new maid of honor?” I joke, but I’m
thankful to have a friend like Kate. Someone I’ve known more than half my life,
and who gets me enough to know a night like this is just what I need. We spend
the rest of dinner going through my to-do list. She puts most of my fears to
rest, and volunteers to help assemble wedding favors the next day. But even her
ever positive, no shit attitude can’t shake the ominous feeling toward my
impending nuptials. I don’t have control over what happens with Melissa and
Drew, but hell if I won’t do everything I can to uncover the mess of it all.

others joy!
