Book Review: Don’t Kiss The Bride

Don’t Kiss the Bride

Book synopsis:

I guess you could say I was a damsel in distress, and he was my knight in shining armor.

But more accurately, I was a girl with a lot of bad luck, and he was a guy with a lot of muscles and tattoos.

Jude “Lucky” Lucketti wasn’t just a sexy, brooding construction worker. He was my own personal hero who seemed to be in all the right places at the right times. Like when my car broke down and I needed a ride home, and when I face planted on the sidewalk right in front of him and had to be taken to the emergency room.

Those weren’t exactly my best moments, but they were his. 

We became friends, and it didn’t matter that he was sixteen years older than me. We had a lot in common—like our love of old rock music and vintage fast cars, and our aversion to relationships.

When he approached me with a crazy idea to help me out, I couldn’t say no.

The arrangement was supposed to be temporary. A marriage on paper and nothing else.

It should’ve been easy, but it wasn’t.

Because here I am, eighteen years-old, still in high school, and married to a man I was never supposed to fall in love with.

We had just one rule—no kissing the bride.

But we broke that rule, and it sealed our fate forever.

My Review:

I read this book in just 2 sittings and I haven’t done this in so long. This book is amazing and I just couldn’t put it down.

Skylar is a senior in high school and her life is just a big mess and her mother doesn’t care about her at all. and there is Jude a 34 years old man who has a dark past and a lot of guilt, one day they crossed passes and it’s all started from there.


I loved every second of this book, it was amazing in every way. Jude is an amazing and caring character, the way he helped Skylar get better mentally and physically was beautiful.
The slow burn in this book was amazing, I felt every emotion reading this book. At first, I thought that I’m not into age gap romances but this book changed all of that.


Skylar and Jude helped each other through tough times and didn’t give up on each other and It was a beautiful story of two people who need each other.
I’m so ready to binge all of Cariana Cole books now.

✨✨✨✨
