Summary: Frankie and George have been best friends since they were eight years old. Both passionate, impulsive, and headstrong—they’ve always clashed . . . and come back together. Until now. It’s the eve of Frankie’s wedding weekend, and she doesn’t know where they stand or even if George will show up as her best man.
Then, at the start of the festivities, in walks George. For one glorious evening, surrounded by her loved ones, Frankie’s life is finally perfect. But it all comes crashing down when her fiancé dumps her the next morning, leaving only a note as an explanation.
Crushed and confused, Frankie returns to her family’s home to wallow. But George has a different idea and a plan for healing Frankie’s broken heart. He wants her to go on her honeymoon. With him. For one week, to the lush rainforests and misty beaches of Tofino.
Review: I am trying to work my way through my Book of the Month books and this one seemed to fit my mood. We all should have a best friend like George--devoted and loyal to us, fun, funny, interesting, smart, and handsome. Sigh.
I was totally along for the ride of having George and Frankie be together. They are best friends, and both are interested in one another after decades of swearing to themselves that they should be just friends. Friendship is such a wonderful place to start a relationship! I believed their friendship and their romance.
I also enjoyed the nature bits that were throughout the novel, especially the whales, which are significant to the story. They really are amazing creatures. I now want to go to Tofino on the western Canadian coast; it sounds magical and so beautiful.
