Meg Koranda is only doing what's best for her friend, Lucy, when she convinces her not to marry Wynette, Texas's golden boy Ted Beaudine. Unfortunately, the town along with the families of both the bride and groom don't quite see it that way. She'd like to be out of town fast, but a promise to Lucy keeps her around for a few days... not to mention the fact that she's completely broke and out of options.
Phillips is always great with the romantic comedy. Meg is about at rock bottom, and it's amusing to watch her struggle to pick herself up and make a life for herself. She doesn't let the hatred of the entire town get her down, and she's not cowed by an angry Ted Beaudine. Phillips is fond of bringing back characters from previous novels, and in this one, her fictional name dropping gets a bit distracting, but the core story is worth a read.
