Rosie’s older sister, Katie, is also dreading the wedding. Worried that impulsive, sweet-hearted Rosie is making a mistake, Katie is determined to save her sister from herself! If only the irritatingly good-looking best man, Jordan, would stop interfering with her plans…

Excerpt
“I wouldn’t miss the wedding for anything.” Katie needed to meet Dan in
person and figure out a way to save her sister from herself. And if she managed
it early on in the week, then they might still all be home in time to spend
Christmas in Honeysuckle Cottage.
With luck, her mother would be too focused on Rosie to notice that
anything was wrong with Katie. “I can’t wait to be Bridesmaid of Honor, or
whatever the correct title is. Don’t dress me in purple polyester, that’s all I
ask. I don’t want static shock. And don’t spend too much money.” Because
this wedding isn’t happening. She turned as the door opened and Mike walked
into the room. “I need to go. I’m at work.”
“I’m proud of you. Katie. I tell everyone my big sister is a doctor.”
Big sister is falling apart.
She was a fraud. “Go. Have fun, but not so much fun you forget your
inhalers.”
“Katie—”
“I know. I’m the inhaler police. Party. Live life. I’ll call you
tomorrow.” She ended the call and slid her feet back into her shoes.
Mike raised an eyebrow. “Nothing like giving out advice you don’t take
yourself. When did you last party and live life?”
“I’m partying in my mind. I’m at a virtual party right now.”
“Does that come with a virtual hangover? Who is getting married?”
“My sister. In less than four weeks.”
“This is the sister who is studying fairy tales?”
Katie winced. “I might have overdone that joke. She’s studying Celtic
languages, myth and folklore at a certain Ivy League college. She would claim
it contributes to the understanding of the culture and beliefs of society. It
has been the subject of many lively arguments round the dinner table. She
really is super smart, but I still think of her as my little sister and I
overdo the teasing.” She rubbed her forehead with her fingers. “It feels like
yesterday I was reading her board books.”
“Big age difference?”
“Ten years. I think my parents had given up on having another child, and
then Rosie arrived.”
“And you were hit by a massive dose of sibling jealousy?”
“What?” Katie stared at him. “No. I adored her. Right from the first
moment I saw her funny little hairless head.” She thought about Rosie, an
adorable toddler, following her everywhere. Rosie in her favorite dinosaur
pajamas. Rosie turning blue with an asthma attack. “I confess I might be
a tad overprotective, which is why I’m flying to Colorado to meet this guy.”
“You haven’t met him?”
“No. And don’t look at me that way. I’m already freaked out. They’ve
known each other a couple of months. What can you know about someone in a few
months? What if he’s a gambler, or a narcissist? He could be a psychopath.
Maybe a serial killer.”
He leaned against the door and folded his arms. “Dr. Doom. Always the
optimist.”
“I am not Dr. Doom. I am Dr. Reality, thanks to the years I’ve spent
working here. Having the realities of life under your nose tends to cure
optimism. There are no certainties in this life, we both know that.”
“All the more reason to grab the happy moments that come your way. Maybe
a couple of weeks enjoying outdoor living and breathing in mountain air will
be good for you.”
“Maybe.” Blocking out his concerned look, she let the door swing closed
behind her.
She didn’t care about outdoor living. She didn’t care about mountain air.
She didn’t even care about a white Christmas.
She was flying to Colorado for one reason, and one reason only.
She was going to stop her sister’s wedding.
