"This is the sweet, funny, and romantic story about Kate Marlow, who’s a wedding consultant, and Barrett Fox, a divorce lawyer. 5 STARS!" Mindy - Goodreads


Whoever said opposites attract must have been talking about Kate Marlow and Barrett Fox. Her life's work was bringing people together, and his was tearing them apart. The pretty wedding consultant and the sexy divorce lawyer should have hated each other on sight, and—well, they did. But from that first moment, when Cupid's arrow struck the unsuspecting Barrett—literally—there was something between them that just wouldn't go away.


There was no way it would work, of course. They both knew that. She was as romantic as they come, born to wear white lace and to carry a bouquet of roses with baby's breath, while he'd learned the hard way not to believe in love—or much of anything else.


It was impossible, completely impossible…wasn't it?


Falling in love has never been so much fun! From #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Barbara Freethy comes the latest novel in her series of sweet, humorous romances about a group of friends who start out as bridesmaids and end up as brides.

What The Readers Are Saying...


"Dreaming of You is a feel good story wrapped in an emotional whirlwind. Barrett and Kate are the best and worst of what love has to offer. She's a dreamer, who wears her heart on her sleeve. He's a realist, haunted by the heartaches of his past. They shouldn't make sense, but are a perfect fit of the heart. For stories packed with emotion and imaginatively stunning, turn to Barbara Freethy." Isha - Goodreads


"I absolutely loved this book and it was a great end to a fantastic series. Kate and Barrett, opposites on paper, and after their first disastrous meeting, it seemed they were too dissimilar to even like each other. But Cupid works in mysterious ways....in this case literally hitting Barrett with an arrow...and they begin to fall for each other...fighting it every step of the way. What makes Ms Freethy such an amazing author is that she writes such great characters, you really come to care for them." Claire - Goodreads


"A really sweet story with likable, truly decent main characters. All nicely tied up in the end. The good and bad of family dynamics and underlying everlasting friendship made for an enjoyable read." Carol - Goodreads


"If you’re looking for a sweet romance, a quick read and delightful characters you wish were part of your own life, grab DREAMING OF YOU — and check out the rest of Bachelors and Bridesmaids." Gwen - Goodreads


"This was a delight to read, funny, I loved the plot. You got caught up in the magic of weddings." Ellen - Goodreads
