Starred review from December 15, 2018
Gia Gallo promised her best friend, Wendy Liu, a hitch-free wedding. Now, six days before the ceremony, an unexpected snowstorm shuts down the airport and leaves Gia stuck in New York City with Wendy's irreplaceable wedding dress. Getting herself and the dress to Wendy in Florida in six days seems impossible until the equally grounded Bennett Buchanan, the best man for the wedding, proposes a solution. If the two of them rent a car and drive, they can just make it. This raises an urgent question, however, given the considerable number of sparks igniting between them. Will Gia and Bennett survive the road trip without giving into either the temptation to indulge in a fling or the equally strong temptation to leave their respective travel partner by the side of the road? In the latest irresistible addition to her Bridesmaids Behaving Badly series, Holiday (It Takes Two, 2018) adroitly combines all the requisite elements of a great romcom?scintillating, witty banter and incendiary sexual chemistry?and a pair of protagonists whose emotional complexity and realistic flaws lend a welcome measure of gravitas to this brilliantly executed romance.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2018, American Library Association.)
