Close Friends, a Secret Crush It was his sister's wedding, but Max Trevetti's eyes weren't focused on the bride. Growing up in small-town Tobias, Wisconsin, Max helped raise his little sister Annette, and was a surrogate big brother to her best friend, Suzanna Grant. Suz always had a secret crush on her best friend's brother, but she would never have thought Max actually saw her as more than a friend. Except now Max can't keep his eyes off of her. That stunning red dress. Her smile. When the wedding celebration leads to unexpected passion, neither knows what happens next … especially when they're constantly thrown together trying to save historic Bliss House for eccentric, meddling Miss Trudi. Was it just a fling, or will this wedding plant the seed for their own? * * * * * * * * The Unexpected Wedding Guest, Book 2 of USA Today bestselling author Patricia McLinn's Marry Me series, is a moving, passionate contemporary romance that will captivate fans of Bella Andre, Roxanne St. Clair, and Jill Shalvis.
