With nothing on her mind but R & R\, she’s enjoying the warm weather of Bora Bora when in saunters Brody McFadden\, her brother’s best friend and also her sworn enemy. Thanks to years of tension between the two—kicked off by a make-out session at her brother’s wedding that ended horribly—Maggie has sworn to stay away from the man. That is\, until she finds out he’s in Bora Bora for his boss’s daughter’s wedding\, hoping to use the trip to win a real future at the company. \nMaggie promised herself she wouldn’t even think of work on the island\, but as word spreads about the “wedding of the century” taking place in the midst of her vacation\, she realizes offering her services as a bridesmaid and planner could bring her business to the next level. The only catch? She needs to pose as Brody’s girlfriend to get the job…while letting him stay in her peaceful bungalow. \nTensions rise\, irritation flairs\, and despite years’ worth of bickering behind closed doors\, Maggie can’t quite squash the sparks building between her and her new fake boyfriend\, especially when she learns the real reason their first kiss was cut short. But as the wedding day draws closer and everything starts to go wrong\, it just might be Brody who sends Maggie’s business crashing down—and her heart along with it.
