Not that kind of proposal
First published 2026
"Gracie Holland can plan the perfect Happily Ever After--unless it's her own. After a soul-flattening breakup, she's rebuilt her life planning weddings at Larkwood--an ivy-covered Rhode Island estate where she lives in the staff cottage (and only occasionally cries herself into a blanket burrito). But when her beloved boss passes away and leaves the estate to her grandson, Gracie suddenly finds herself pitted against a love-allergic divorce lawyer determined to sell Larkwood by summer's end--even if it means crushing his grandmother's legacy and everyone's jobs beneath his polished wingtips. As someone who cleans up romantic disasters for a living, Jude Larkwood has no intention of keeping the estate as a wedding venue, no matter how much he loved his Nana. Selling it is critical for reasons he can't discuss, but there's just one problem: his Nana inexplicably left the guest cottage to the estate's maddeningly romantic wedding planner, who has somehow turned his mind into her permanent residence. So, when Gracie proposes that he help her plan her ex's shotgun wedding to prove Larkwood is worth saving, he agrees--on one condition.
