Aurora, who is named after a Disney princess, is one of the most selfless individuals alive. After tragically losing her husband, five years ago, and then having her entire life fall apart, she answers the instagram post of a bride who's wedding dress was stolen. Aurora has wonderful memories from her wedding day in her dress and hopes this bride can create her wonderful own memories in the dress.
Ridge and his brothers purchased the land adjacent to their cousins resort in order to start their own distillery. All four of the Wilder cousins are fighting demons and Ridge is no exception. He has been keeping a secret from his family for the past two years. A secret that has been tearing him apart, the death of his girlfriend and unborn child.
Even though Aurora has kept mostly to herself since the death of her husband she has never let herself become bitter and hateful. I fell madly and deeply in love with Aurora and rooted for her success. I adore that once she was given an opportunity as pastry chef at Wilder Resort her focus was set on bettering herself, Ridge was a fortunate bonus in her new life. Don't get me wrong, she was attracted to him and wanted to be with him but if he moved on from her she was set on moving forward with her new job and friends. Her happiness was not dependent on a man. Having a mother who was widowed at the young age of 24 I find that on some level this story was completely relatable to me.
I really enjoyed the first introduction to the Wilder cousins and am excited for the next installment.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
