Sylvie Fontaine planned weddings for a living. She was good at it. So good that she didn't notice her own fiancé falling for her assistant until she walked in on them "reviewing seating charts" in a way that definitely wasn't professional.

Now she's hiding out on Moontide Island, working a summer gig at the Bellweather Hotel and pretending she's fine. She doesn't need romance. She needs to remember how to be herself without a plus-one.

Enter Cormac Calloway—the hotel owner's infuriatingly handsome nephew who's been voluntold to host his sister's engagement party and needs a planner. He's grumpy about the whole "destination wedding industrial complex," suspicious of her cheerful competence, and for some reason keeps bringing her coffee exactly when she needs it.

She's sworn off love. He doesn't believe in fairy-tale weddings. Planning someone else's happily-ever-after shouldn't make them want one of their own... right?
