Synopsis
Famed wedding gown designer Jax Braden has dressed countless brides for the happiest day of their lives, yet he never expects to lose his heart to one of them. When passion ignites between Jax and Jordan Lawler, a soon-to-be bride already promised to another man, both are blindsided by a connection too powerful to explain away. Honesty means everything to each of them, and neither is willing to cross the lines that a commitment, and a wedding already in motion, have drawn. Still, the pull between them refuses to fade. As Jax and Jordan are drawn deeper into feelings they never went looking for, loyalties are tested and hearts are frayed, and they face an impossible question: what do you do when you finally meet your soul mate, only to discover she belongs to someone else? Set among the close-knit Braden and Montgomery families, this is an emotional, slow-burning romance about integrity, longing, and the ache of wanting someone you believe you have no right to want. There is no cheating and no easy way through, only two good people caught in the wrong moment and hoping for the right ending.
