I haven’t read too many books by Jennifer Ryan, but I have read a few of her romance books in the past. THE ONE YOU WANT is a Women’s Fiction novel, and I was curious to see the difference in writing style for this one, so I gave it a shot.
I was pleasantly surprised to find this book to be a fast read. I enjoyed the characters and the writing style, and the wedding backdrop was also great. It’s books like these that make me want to read more of this genre.
THE ONE YOU WANT is an enjoyable read that will make you want more! I know I’ll look into Ryan’s backlist titles to see what other gems I can discover.
One week, two friends, secrets revealed, and a wedding gone wrong.With the drama of Colleen Hoover, the romantic tension of Lori Foster, and the page-turning power of Jill Shalvis, New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Ryan returns in this deliciously unforgettable novel.
Sometimes weddings bring the worst surprises...Growing up, Rose fled her family home—and a dangerous father—vowing never to return. But Rose is back in Carmel, California, with two goals: to joyfully act as maid of honor for her best-friend-forever Maggie and to reunite and rebuild her relationships with her mother and sister. And she can’t wait to finally meet the groom-to-be.
But when Maggie excitedly introduces her to Marc, Rose is horrified. He’s the man Rose spent one lust-fueled but disastrous night with a year ago. Rose and Maggie have shared every secret…but Rose isn’t sure she can reveal this one. To complicate the situation, Rose makes an instant connection with Gray, Marc’s best man and cousin.
And as the big day approaches, the secret weighs heavy upon Rose. It was a whirlwind courtship, but Maggie seems so sure she’s found the one she wants. Now Rose faces the biggest dilemma of her life: Should she tell Maggie and Gray the truth and risk losing them? What if it’s best to leave things alone? Then again, what if her friend is making the biggest mistake of her life?
