Tish Gallagher is a wedding videographer. More accurately
she is an out-of-work wedding videographer who is deep in
debt and has just purchased a pair of non-returnable
designer shoes with the little bit of money left in her
account. She has come to the end of her rope and desperate
times call for desperate measures, so Tish decides to take
out the wedding veil. The legend states that this wedding
veil will bestow the wearer their heart's desire. Tish
wishes to be out of debt; however, when she puts the veil
on, she sees her ex-husband, Shane. She soon receives a
call from the president's daughter asking her to be the
videographer for her wedding. It seems too good to be
true, but Tish is not going to question her luck. Not even
when she finds out that Shane is the groom. How can she
film a wedding when she is still in love with the groom?
Will this help her to finally get over him?
Shane Tremont is a Secret Service agent charged with the
protection of the president's daughter, Elysee Benedict.
While at a public ceremony, he pushes her out of harm's way
and is gravely injured himself. He recuperates at the
president's ranch with Elysee constantly at his side. He
likes that she is there for him while at the same time she
needs him to be there for her. Shane's injuries are severe
enough that he will not be able to return to his previous
position, but he feels a certain connection with Elysee.
When he proposes, Elysee accepts and thus begins the
wedding preparations. He is completely shocked when he is
introduced to the videographer to see his ex-wife, Tish.
Just seeing her reminds him of the times they shared with
one another. How can Elysee hire his ex-wife to film their
wedding? How is he supposed to marry Elysee with Tish
there reminding him of his failure?
Lori Wilde has written a very entertaining romance. She
takes us on an exhilarating ride filled with twists and
unexpected dips. Not only does she have the expected
romance, but also she includes comedy, intrigue,
kidnapping, and possible murder. It is definitely a very
diverse, but funny story line. Her characters add to the
charm of the tale. Tish is the independent woman
determined to make the most out of any circumstance. Shane
is the essential male needing to maintain control and take
care of everyone else. Elysee is the dependent female who
is certain that she has found Mr. Right after numerous
failed attempts. ONCE SMITTEN, TWICE SHY is a thrilling
romantic comedy and a guaranteed fun read. I enjoyed it
and I am looking forward to the next Wedding Veil adventure.
