Romance Contemporary

Addie’s always been one of the guys. So when one of her best guy friends gets engaged, she thrilled to learn that she’ll be a "groomsman." So what if she has to wear a dress? Addison’s even happier to learn that her best friend Tucker is moving back home. Maybe things will become normal between them again. Their friendship took a nosedive after missed phone calls and canceled visits. Soon after Tucker moves back, Addie realizes that she might have more than just feelings of friendship for Tucker. But she’s not sure if she should say anything; she doesn’t want to risk their friendship. The two of them dance around their feelings before finally kissing. Tucker’s spent the last two years living in the city working his life away. He hates his job and hates that he has no free time. Moving back home was the best thing that ever happened to him – until he kissed Addie. One kiss is all it takes to know this could be the start of something magical.

JUST ONE OF THE GROOMSMEN is the start of a new contemporary romance series centered on weddings. Cindi Madsen pens a novel with the classic romance trope of falling for your best friend. Addie’s the girl next door, loves football, has a competitive streak a mile wide and teases her friends mercilessly. Most of her childhood memories involve getting into trouble with Tucker. Tucker’s the steady friend who always has your back and willing to take part in crazy schemes. The secondary characters, including Addie’s grandmother, will make readers laugh. The loyalty between the friends makes this series one to watch as other friends make it to the altar.

SUMMARY

Addison Murphy is the funny friend, the girl you grab a beer withβ€”the girl voted most likely to start her own sweatshirt line. And now that one of her best guy friends is getting married, she’ll add β€œgroomsman” to that list, too. She’ll get through this wedding if it’s the last thing she does. Just don’t ask her to dive for any bouquet. When Tucker Crawford returns to his small hometown, he expects to see the same old people, feel comfort in the same old things. He certainly doesn’t expect to see the nice pair of bare legs sticking out from under the hood of a broken-down car. Certainly doesn’t expect to feel his heart beat faster when he realizes they belong to one of his best friends. If he convinces Addie to give him a chance, they could be electric…or their break-up could split their tight-knit group in two. Hiding the way he feels from the guys through bachelor parties, cake tastings, and rehearsals is one thing. But just asTucker realizes that Addie truly could be the perfect woman for himβ€”he was just too stupid to realize itβ€”now she’s leaving to follow her own dreams. He’s going to need to do a lot of compromising if he’s going to convince her to take a shot at forever with himβ€”on her terms this time.
