Two love sceptics agree to work together as professional wedding disruptors. But fate has more romantic plans in mind for them . . .

When they’re hired by a man who’s marrying the girl that once broke Max’s heart, Sophie expects Max to revel in the job. But instead, he seems to be wrestling with his feelings for his ex. And worse than that, Sophie is jealous . . .
