Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars
Slow-burn perfection! Runaway Groomsman is full of laughs and lots of heart, the yummy kind of story that you can just envision watching on “Lifemark” or “Movieflix.” (IYKYK!!)
Sawyer is a screenwriter who makes his living writing feel-good romcoms, but his life is more like a Greek tragedy lately. And when his ex-girlfriend (an actress) marries his ex-best friend (an actor), the dude has a meltdown of epic proportions. During the ceremony. At the altar. As his double-finger kiss-off becomes a viral gif, Sawyer ends up hiding out in the quirky mountain town of Canoodle to bury his head in the sand as he’s become a bit of a laughingstock back in Hollywood.
One of the first people Sawyer meets in Canoodle is Fallon — a former nurse with whom he had one horrible blind date a year ago. At the time, Sawyer was drowning in sadness and anger because his girlfriend cheated on him with his best friend, but all Fallon remembers from that date was what a jerk the guy was. And to make matters worse, Sawyer has zero recollection of who Fallon is when they first cross paths. Still, she takes pity on the drunk fool and lets him stay in one of the cabins at her grandfather’s crumbling resort.
But Fallon has a lot more to worry about than a guy she had one date with not remembering her. She’s the caretaker for her grandfather, Sully, who has Alzheimer’s, and she’s desperately trying to renovate the resort so she can continue her grandparents’ legacy. While Sawyer is hiding out and trying to come up with a new movie concept to save his career, he begins spending lots of time with Sully and unbeknownst to Fallon, begins doing renovations at the resort under her grandfather’s watchful eye. And the more time he spends “not being friends” with Fallon, the more Sawyer realizes he blew his chance with a fabulous girl… because she now has a boyfriend, Peter.
As Fallon and Sawyer become more than “not friends,” it’s clear that there is so much electricity between them. Fallon is broken up with Peter before anything happens between her and Sawyer, but you have to read through more than half of the book to get there! And because Sawyer doesn’t want to ruin the second chance he’s been given, he becomes the swooniest of book boyfriends as he courts Fallon. Along the way, Sawyer finds his muse again and discovers that the best thing that ever could have happened to him was running away from Hollywood.
There are so many wonderful Easter eggs sprinkled throughout this book that I loved as a long-time reader of Meghan Quinn’s. I loved all of the side characters, especially Fallon’s sarcastic BFF, Jazlyn. I know there is a story coming for Jaz and Sawyer’s brother, and I can’t wait to see how their romance unfolds! This book is a Montlake release and definitely does not have the spice level that MQ’s indie books like Royally Not Ready has, but it is a super sweet and heartfelt story about love, inner peace, acceptance, and family.
I received a complimentary copy from the publisher via NetGalley and voluntarily left a review.
