From Sariah Wilson, the bestselling author of Roommaid, comes a captivating romantic comedy about what happens when a wedding party mixes business with romance.

Rachel Vinson is a bridesmaid for hire: part confidante, part wedding planner, and one hundred percent pretend BFF. Discretion guaranteed. Her next gig is a destination wedding—livestreamed and sponsored—for an Instagram influencer. That means a paradise of new contacts, which could be a boon to her already booming business. If Rachel can keep the very handsome and slightly too interested best man at bay, that is.

High-tech entrepreneur Camden Lewis must know: Who is this gorgeous, intelligent, and mysterious woman? Too good to be real. Convinced she’s a corporate spy out to tank his company, Camden’s not letting her out of his sight. But the constant surveillance is also opening his eyes to things about Rachel that he likes. If she’s a spy, she’s certainly the cutest one he’s ever seen.

As the week’s worth of wedding events march along, Rachel and Camden are learning almost everything there is to know about each other. Rachel’s made a career out of always a bridesmaid…but perhaps there’s a chance for her own trip down the aisle?

Review

An Amazon Best Book of the Month: Romance

“Combining a fast-paced plot with a slow-burning romance, this is sure to give readers butterflies.” —Publishers Weekly

“Wilson’s (Roommaid) funny, sweet stand-alone about marriage, friendships, and mistaken identities is full of witty dialogue, endearing characters, and fast-paced narrative. Will appeal to fans of feel-good romances, rom-coms, and plots about weddings and social media.” —Library Journal

From the Publisher

Sariah Wilson knows how to make me laugh. Her lively, charming romances are the perfect reads for when I’m in the mood to be carried away—and The Paid Bridesmaid in particular whisked me off to a lavish destination wedding in Hawaii where professional bridesmaid Rachel Vinson is about to meet the man of her dreams.

At a wedding she’s supposed to be working, of course. And her job requires organization, a high capacity for calmness in the face of chaos, and, above all, discretion. Now is not the time to get warm and fuzzy feelings for the devastatingly dashing groomsman. The focus should be on the bride—a hugely popular Instagram influencer who is sharing every lovingly curated detail of her happily-ever-after with her followers.

Which means that if Rachel messes up, it’ll be broadcast for everyone to see.

But is it possible to be a perfect paid bridesmaid, wrangling an unruly mother of the bride, a week’s worth of elaborate wedding activities, and dozens of cranky peacocks, all while falling in love?

Dear readers, I suspect you know the answer to that question. And I hope you’ll enjoy this sweet romantic romp as much as I did. I know I’ll be quoting this one for years to come. (The peacocks are for AMBIENCE, Rachel!)

—Alison Dasho, Editor

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

USA Today bestselling author Sariah Wilson has never jumped out of an airplane, never climbed Mt. Everest, and is not a former CIA operative. She has, however, been madly, passionately in love with her soulmate and is a fervent believer in happily ever afters—which is why she writes romance. She grew up in southern California, graduated from Brigham Young University (go Cougars!) with a semi-useless degree in history, and is the oldest of nine (yes, nine) children. She currently lives with the aforementioned soulmate and their four children in Utah, along with her cats Pixel, Callie, and Belle, who do not get along. (The cats, not the children. Although the children sometimes have their issues, too.)

This was an okay read for me

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 January 2022

This was an okay read for me but nothing really grabbed me enough for me to love it.

I feel Rachel, our MC, had no growth or arc, her role was simply to obsess over a man that she supposedly couldn't have, though the reason she couldn't have him was weak.

When she realised why she was an over achieving, over working perfectionist, we glossed straight over it and returned to obsessing over the man.

I know this is a Romantic Comedy, and rightly so the relationship should take the lead, but there was nothing else. In my opinion, a good rom com provides good side dishes to go along with the main meal, and this just didn't.

It was a cute slow burn, but there wasn't enough angst at the beginning. They started to banter and rip into each other and play with each other. But then we took a 160 and immediately became full force attraction and love. I just wanted more of them iritating each other.

Rachel is a bridesmaid for hire. Her newest client is a big social media influencer and, it's an opportunity that Rachel can't miss as she'll be able to network and expand her business. However, Camden, the best man, is suspicious of her behaviour and considers her a spy to get insights into his and the groom's company. Rachel can't tell him the truth although she's falling for him. But when her lies come to light, both Rachel and Camden need to realise what they want with each other.

It's been quite a while since I read a rom-com and I'm so glad I decided to go with this book. I had so much fun reading it, and the chemistry between Rachel and Camden was really good.

Such a fantastic read, I bought it twice

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 January 2022

Such a fantastic read, I bought it twice. I adore this author, I have really enjoyed everything by them that I have read so far, but this one I enjoyed so much that after I finished the kindle book, I immediately ordered the paperback. Rachel Vinson is so strong, she will face everything and still come up checking on everyone else and smiling. But for me the stand out was Sadie, I don’t know if it was because as the child who has grown up with an alcoholic parent I understood everything she did, and why she did it. I also understood Rachels passion for her role, not all of us are lucky enough to have reliable female friends who we would want to stand up next to us, for some its that they don’t feel pretty enough, for others its that the are the organised one, the one who steps up and does it al for everyone, they don’t have someone to do that for them, so this service would be a godsend for many. This is cheesy at times, and its also really good at just being what you want, a romance with heart.

So I picked this up as part of the Amazon First Reads Program for 99p. It sounded like something I'd enjoy but I'd never read a book by this author. Here goes...

This starts with Rachel at her latest wedding where she's acting as best/oldest friend of the bride who is having a fully-paid-for-by-her-sponsors destination wedding in Hawaii. Only Rachel has only known Sadie for a few weeks and when she's introduced to the Groom's best friend and best man sparks fly between them. As much as she tries to keep things professional Rachel is finding it hard to resist Camden and it seems Camden is becoming more smitten with her every day.

I was pulled into this from the start. That initial meeting between Rachel and Camden! Sparks were flying between them then and then it just intensified with every encounter. I absolutely loved it! I would have happily read this in one sitting if not for that thing called work.

I loved the characters although I think Camden wins slightly over Rachel for my favourite. Camden was very much like an open book about his feelings and what he wanted to happen between them. Rachel tried to fight it with everything she had - for work reasons - but I have no idea how she resisted him! I did love their journey while taking part in the crazy wedding events for the social media darling that was Sadie. I even grew to like her, too.

If every book by this author is like this, then give me more!

A Healthy romance novel, I really liked it

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 January 2022

Verified Purchase

It's really nice to have a main character that's nice, regular and down to earth...she is like many of us, an everyday person. It's refreshing because books seem to focus on the outliers, the ones that are edgy and/or unbalanced. I loved that the ordinariness of her, because in that way she was extraordinary. I liked the guy, and most importantly I loved the healthy romance portrayed. It didn't lack chemistry, didn't loose 'readability', there were no sex scenes, yet you felt their connection. Bravo on the author, I've not been able to read romance books lately because they feel sort of nauseating. Thanks for a lovely read.

Downloaded the book yesterday and unfortunately got sick overnight. Head sore. Back aches. Coughing. While drinking mint tea and eating homemade chicken noodle soup decided to read this book. The perfect balm for feeling poorly. Well written. Engaging. Great characters. A joy to read. Thank you author for helping me feel better!!!

Fun read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 December 2021

A fun read (who knew that bridesmaid rental was a real thing?!). Grabbed my attention from the first page. My only issue was that a few lines felt *very familiar*. Eg I’d previously heard the sentence about getting nose bleeds from dry weather or being kicked in the face in the tv series Community. Maybe it’s a commonly used expression? It’s not the only one, though. Anyway, still a great read.

Disappointing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 January 2022

Verified Purchase

The whole book was about two rather flat characters getting together. The end was obvious from the first page but how I longed for a twist and for them not to get together. They were both perfect to look at and such wonderfully good and righteous people. I was speed reading from early on, just hoping for something unexpected to happen - it didn't!
