Never the Bride

Don't miss this hilarious rom-com from million copy bestseller Portia MacIntosh! Mia thought she had it all figured out. After a whirlwind romance with her charming boyfriend Leo, she’s ready to take the plunge into marriage … until wedding planning turns her world upside down. With family expectations looming and doubts creeping in, she questions everything she thought she wanted.

When she lands a gig ghostwriting the autobiography of pop sensation Dylan King, Mia is pulled back into the glitzy life she left behind in LA. As she navigates the chaotic world of celebrity, Mia finds herself drawn to Dylan’s magnetic charm and carefree attitude.
