What Was I Thinking by @donna_simonetta is a Celebrate Weddings pick #romance #weddings #giveaway



Title: What Was I Thinking


Author: Donna Simonetta


Genre: Contemporary Romance


Book Blurb:


A wild Vegas fling isn't the traditional Thanksgiving celebration, and Lily and Jason have been like oil and water since they met. Blaming their steamy hook-up on too many shots at the bar, they head home.


Back in the real world, Jason wonders if he's ready to give up his crown as the Playboy King of Rivers Bend to be with just one woman. And Lily has enough on her plate right now without adding Jason Braden to the mix, even if their attraction is crazy-strong.


But life is good at throwing curveballs, and a lot can happen between Thanksgiving and Valentine's Day. Maybe even enough to lead these two polar opposites home to each other in Rivers Bend.


Excerpt:


“I think about a lot of things.”


She felt him stiffen up behind her, and Jason’s tone of voice was defensive. She hadn’t meant to hurt his feelings. “I know you do; I didn’t mean anything by it. We poke at each other”––she shrugged––“it’s kind of our thing.”


His grip on her hand loosened, and then he took control of the dance, by twirling her until her back was pressed to his front, and he began to move sinuously in time to the rhythm. His breath tickled her ear, as he spoke right in it to be heard over the music. “We’ve got a thing, Moonbeam?”


Jason had ditched the tie and suit jacket after the wedding, and his body heat scorched her through his crisp white dress shirt. And man-oh-Maneschewitz, his lean, hard body felt good. Really good. The Marine might be bulked up, but Jason’s body felt like it had been made for hers, which given their mutual antagonism, seemed like proof Fate was enjoying a good laugh at her expense right about now. Against Lily’s better judgment, her body melted into his warmth and began to move with his.


“Sure we’ve got a thing,” she said over her shoulder, and was irritated to hear a trace of breathlessness in her voice. She cleared her throat and continued, “Like that––you calling me Moonbeam, because you know it bugs me.”

What makes your featured book a must-read?


If you love a little wedding with your romance, then What Was I Thinking is the book for you! It begins with two, very different, weddings. The first is an elopement to Las Vegas, and the second is a lovely, traditional ceremony in the chapel at Rivers Bend. In between these two events, Jason and Lily find their way to an unlikely happy-ever-after, in this enemies-to-lovers romance. Like all of my Rivers Bend books, it has a little humor, a little steaminess, and a lot of heart.
