About the book (from Goodreads)

I’m a huge fan of love and marriage and all that gushy stuff. Just for other people. Not me.

Avery: I’m a simple woman. All I want is for my wedding planning business to thrive. That’s it. I don’t want some annoying photographer (Okay, I'll admit it. He's attractive. In a guy-you-want-to-hate kinda way) that tries with moderate success to get under my skin. I don’t need some adorable stray puppy that’s just dying to make me a dog mom. I don’t want any of it. All right?

Tyler: I mean, am I attracted to Avery? Sure. If you're into the big brown eyes and full soft lips kinda thing. She may or may not have sneaked her way into my film roll more times than I can count this week. But as enticing as Avery is, she has a bite to go with it. Like a tiger, just waiting for you to come close and count its stripes so it can attack. But what if there's more to her than the human checklist vibe she gives off? And what if I'm drawn to that part?

A laugh-out-loud, clean romance that is full of all the sarcasm and swoons! ♥♥♥

My Review of On Schedule

I'm trying to read as many romance novels as possible in February, and I was beyond thrilled when given access to this arc. To get a feel for the series and the author, I decided to read the first two (standalone) books in Dowell's The Wedding Business Series. I've had fun reading the series because the main characters in each book are all close friends who work in the wedding industry. I am happy to say that I've enjoyed them all, but this was was by far my favorite, which is probably because I'm a sucker for an enemy-to-lover trope.

The Good Things

1. Just like the first two books in the series, the cover and title fit the genre and the book perfectly!

2. Avery, the main character, is a level-headed perfectionist who has inherited her parent's workaholic tendencies. She is by far my favorite of the main characters in this series, and I love how she is woven into the other two books AND is still a strong leading character in her own book!

3. Tyler pushes Avery's buttons at every chance he can get, and I absolutely LOVE it. As I said, I'm a sucker for enemy-to-lover tropes.

4. Elvis. That's all I'm going to say to avoid spoilers. Elvis owns my heart.

The Bad Things

1. I'm having a really hard time finding anything BAD to say about this book.

2. It's a CORNY rom-com, so if that doesn't fit your style, move along, my friend!
