Summary:

This contemporary romance is Groundhog Day meets My Best Friend’s Wedding. Readers who like women’s fiction by Meg Cabot, Emily Giffin and Allison Winn Scotch will enjoy this romantic comedy.

Kate is alarmed to find out that her best friend Amy is getting married after dating for only six months. Her alarm turns to shock when she learns that the groom-to-be is Kate’s old college ex. As the big day approaches, Kate’s inability to hide her feelings is threatening to ruin her friendship with Amy.

Kate’s last minute, vodka-fueled wedding toast has her wishing she could turn back the clock and make things right. Imagine her surprise when she wakes up the next day and finds out she can.

Forced to relive one of the most painful weeks of her life, Kate slowly works to repair the damage she has done. In the process, she learns a lot about herself and the cynically charming best man, Ben.

Review:

From the beginning I knew I was going to enjoy this book. A wonderful mixture of romance and comedy, plus the life-on-repeat plot line was super intriguing to read. I highly enjoyed following Kate as she kept having to repeat the same week. I couldn’t figure it out with her why that particular week was getting repeated, or what was the master plan so she could begin to move on with her life. The romance was sweet, there is one pretty heinous minor character that I loved to hate, and this book was fast-paced and a blast to read.

4.5 stars
