The Stand-Up Groomsman
The Stand-Up Groomsman | Jackie Lau
2 posts | 4 read | 1 to read
A bridesmaid and groomsman put their differences aside to get their friends down the aisle in this opposites-attract steamy romantic comedy. They say to never meet your heroes, but when Vivian Liao's roommate gets engaged to her favorite actor's costar, she has no choice but to come face-to-face with Melvin Lee again. He's just as funny and handsome as he is on-screen...but thinks she is a snob and a sellout. It's none of his business how she chooses to live her life, no matter how charismatic he is. Mel is used to charming audiences as an actor and stand-up comedian but can't connect to Vivian. She's a smart, talented artist--which is why he thinks she's wasting her life as a corporate finance drone. The only thing uniting them is their goal for the wedding to go off without a hitch. As they collaborate on wedding cake and karaoke parties, Mel realizes he might have seriously misjudged this bridesmaid, while Vivian discovers the best man might just be as dazzling off-screen as he is on. With the wedding underway, maybe more than one happily ever after is in the future.

My book nook‘s all but finished—just gotta wait for the case to dry—so there‘s nothing between me and Jackie Lau‘s recent bisexual enemies-to-lovers romance! I‘m excited to sink right into it tonight.

I really enjoyed this sequel to Donut Fall in Love. So much intersectionality here. I love Lau's novels which explore deeper themes than her shorter works.
