But event planning is like crafting a sphere out of iridescent glass and gifting it to someone forever. Events are momentous.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Kate Sweet may be known as the Queen of Happily Ever Afters, but she&#8217;s looking at branching out from weddings into more events in hopes of winning a coveted award. When she gets the chance to help out with a famous horror author&#8217;s Halloween book launch party, she hightails it off to his small hometown in western NY with visions of coffins and skeletons in her eyes. Until an epic meet-disaster derails her chances of ever working on anything but weddings ever again.\u00a0While Drake is known as the Knight of Nightmares, he&#8217;s found himself stuck with writer&#8217;s block on his latest horror novel, so instead he\u2019s secretly been working on a romance novel loosely based on his grandparents\u2019 own romance. And strangely enough, Kate seems to be his muse &#8211; for the romance novel, that is. Drake agrees to let her continue planning the party as long as she\u2019ll also help with his book research, just completely normal things like getting locked into a crypt with him. But as the event planning &#8211; and the romance novel writing &#8211; proceed, both find themselves drawn to the other. Can nightmares and happily ever afters fit together?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThings <em>always<\/em> go according to my plans. Normally.\u201d<br \/>\nDrake shrugged, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a smile blooming on his lightly whiskered face. \u201cIf you say so. From what I\u2019ve seen chaos seems to follow you around like a lap dog.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Between having basically no social life (all her weekends are swamped with events) and still feeling the pressure from her parents to change careers, Kate&#8217;s having some angst over her life. She loves event planning and she&#8217;s amazing at it, but at times she wonders if it&#8217;s compatible with, well, having her own life. So she sees the opportunity to get away from NYC and slow down &#8211; even if it&#8217;s while planning another event &#8211; as a good time to reevaluate. While Kate initially goes over-the-top (Drake emerging from a coffin wreathed in fog! Gallons of fake blood!), it doesn&#8217;t take long before she realizes that Drake&#8217;s not the stereotypical creepy horror writer. He&#8217;s actually a regular person and not really into big to-dos (or blood). Kate&#8217;s able to walk the line between promoting his new book while respecting who he is. Drake, like his brothers, went into the military and fell into horror writing after he got out, especially once he realized he could support his family with his writing. And in many ways, Drake&#8217;s house is just like him &#8211; an imposing facade with cinnamon roll insides. Most people think his\u00a0Victorian is gothic and creepy, but once Kate gets inside she realizes it&#8217;s cozy and full of his grandma&#8217;s furniture. As for their relationship, it&#8217;s pretty slow-burn, and part of that is that Drake is wary of betrayal after a previous girlfriend&#8217;s actions.<\/p>\n<p>As for cons, I didn&#8217;t feel like there was a lot of character growth for either character beyond the obvious bleak moment. I also felt a little squicky about how Drake initially mined some of his interactions with Kate for writing material. He did eventually get her agreement for using her as his writing muse, but it felt a bit transactional at first. I also was confused that the bleak moment didn&#8217;t involve the characters who, up until that point, had been the big villains of the story, and thought their come-uppance was out of nowhere and lackluster.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, 3.5 stars from me. Delightfully fun fluff, and I&#8217;ll be keeping an eye on what the author writes next (I&#8217;m guessing it will involve the other Matthews brothers!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Content notes: This book is adorable and hilarious, full of over-the-top rom-com hijinx and basically cute as heck.
