| The first time I met Hudson Rothschild was at a wedding. I’d received an unexpected invitation to one of the swankiest venues in the city.
Hudson was a groomsman and quite possibly the most gorgeous man I’d ever laid eyes on. He asked me to dance, and our chemistry was off the charts. I knew it wasn’t a good idea to get involved with him, considering the wedding I was at. But our connection was intense, and I was having a great time. Though the fun came to a screeching halt when Hudson figured out I wasn’t who I’d said I was. You see, that unexpected invitation I received? Well, it hadn’t actually been addressed to me—it was sent to my ex-roommate who’d bounced a check for two months’ rent and moved out in the middle of the night. I figured she owed me an expensive night out, but I guess, technically, I was crashing the wedding. Once caught, I couldn’t get out of there fast enough. As I bolted for the door, I might’ve plucked a few bottles of expensive champagne off the tables I passed, all while the gorgeous, angry groomsman was hot on my tail. Outside, I jumped into a taxi. My heart ricocheted against my ribs as we drove down the block—but at least I’d escaped unscathed. Or so I thought. Until I realized I’d left my cell phone behind at the table. Take one guess who found it? This is the crazy story of how Hudson Rothschild and I met. But trust me, it’s only the tip of the iceberg. A new, sexy standalone from #1 New York Times Bestseller, Vi Keeland. |

Books are my escape from reality and except trying to be safe that is pretty much the most important thing to me just now. Any minute that you can spend with books is precious – always has been and always will be. And I have a bunch of authors in my “go-to” circle that actually keep me sane. Vi Keeland is one of them. No matter if she writes alone or together with Penelope Ward. I am wondering what I could tell you about Vi’s books that has not been said before in any of my other reviews. The plot is actually simple on the surface. “Woman crashes wedding and gets caught” But with a good plotter like Vi nothing is ever as simple as it seems. Her writing is flawless and just what you will want to have in your hands when you sit down on a rainy and cold Sunday afternoon. You will start reading and you will be sucked into the story within minutes. And even though in case of ” The Invitation” – I pretty much had figured things out early – it did not bother me at all. It might not be the edgiest story Vi has ever written but it sure was the right one for me at this moment. I also suggest keeping chocolate close when reading … |
