When a wedding goes spectacularly wrong, Addison Potts finds herself reluctant getaway driver for Elijah Montgomery Du Pont—Charleston's golden boy and soon-to-be mayor—and she really wasn't planning on liking him. But somewhere between the chaos and the escape, these two unlikely friends discover an undeniable spark that's equal parts exhilarating and terrifying. Tessa Bailey gives us the swoon-worthy small-town romance we didn't know we needed, complete with a brooding southern charmer, a delightfully chaotic heroine, and the kind of slow-burn chemistry that'll have you rooting for them despite the odds stacked against them. This is feel-good, heartfelt romance with all the tension and longing you crave.
