Chose the Wrong Guy, Gave Him the Wrong Finger by Beth Harbison
Ten years ago, Quinn Barton was on her way to the altar to marry Burke Morrison, her high school sweetheart, when something derailed her. Rather, someone derailed her—the Best Man who at the last minute begged her to reconsider the marriage. He told her that Burke had been cheating on her. For a long time. Quinn, stunned, hurt, and confused, struggled with the obligation of fulfilling her guests’ expectations—providing a wedding—and running for her life.
She chose running. With the Best Man. Who happened to be Burke’s brother, Frank.
That relationship didn't work either. How could it, when Quinn had been engaged to, in love with, Frank’s brother? Quinn opted for neither, and, instead, spends the next seventeen years working in her family’s Middleburg, Virginia, bridal shop, Talk of the Gown, where she subconsciously does penance for the disservice she did to marriage.
But when the two men return to town for another wedding, old anger, hurt, and passion resurface. Just because you've traded the good guy for the bad guy for no guy doesn't mean you have to stay away from love for the rest of your life, does it?**
I received this book as a ARC from netgalley.
I really tried to like Quinn, she made a decision and stuck by it when she left Burke at the alter. Choosing to trust Frank, best man and brother of the groom, Quinn left with him and went to California. She had a relationship with Frank and that ended on a not so great note either. Fast forward 10 years and Quinn is still living in the same town and she owns the a dress shop where she designs beautiful dresses. One day the brother's grandmother, Dottie, comes in the dress shop looking for a wedding dress. Dottie is getting married, and selling the farm that Quinn loves so much. Guess who's coming home to help grandma pack up? Yup, the two brothers. When Quinn sees Burke she is just as attracted to him today as she was ten years ago but she can't get it out of her head that he cheated on her, and she can't get over how handsome Frank is either.
You gotta read this to find out who she picks, who she loves and who she agrees to marry. I had a hard time liking this book, while I did read it relatively fast it was more to get through it then because I loved it. I was also fine with who she chose, but I thought the ending was rushed and it ended abruptly. All in all I was meh about the book. Didn't hate it and didn't love it.
