Madison Kenedy feels like her world is in chaos. Her mother is a total shrew and hates Madi’s boyfriend, Lucas Daniels. Luke is Madi's rock and one of the best people she’s ever known. His family has practically adopted her, but Luke has been distant of late, always working, and she’s starting to think he’s lost interest in their plans to marry. Should she end things before he dumps her? Despite financial setbacks, Luke has been working for ages to buy wedding rings for Madi. He’s planning to propose at Christmas -- then Madi breaks up with him. But now the Vegas-style wedding venue at the city park gazebo, part of the second phase of Sweetwater Springs’s Holiday Extravaganza designed to save the town from financial ruin, offers Luke new hope. Suddenly Luke has a way to give Madi her dream wedding, but can he convince her that marrying her was his intent all along, not a desperate gesture brought about because of her ultimatum? He may end up looking like an idiot in front of the whole town, but with the help of friends and community, he’s willing to risk it all for Madi. Warning: Be aware that the holiday cheer in this book is invasive. You may experience the urge to buy gifts, put up a Christmas tree or sing carols. Those possible side effects are wholly the responsibility of the author. You’re welcome. You may also experience the urge to smack the characters upside the head but remember they’re young adults and still unused to adulting. This book is the fifth in the Sweetwater Springs series. Each book is a standalone title and can be read out of order. However, a better reading experience is had when the books are read in order as characters from previous books appear in this and future books.
