The Wedding Crasher: A Novel

Written by Mia Sosa

Narrated by Rebecca Mozo and Alastair Haynesbridge

Named one of the most anticipated books of 2022 by EW, Oprah Daily, Marie Claire, Goodreads and Bookpage!

The USA Today bestselling author of The Worst Best Man is back with a hilarious rom-com about two strangers who get trapped in a lie and have to fake date their way out of it...

Just weeks away from ditching DC for greener pastures, Solange Pereira is roped into helping her wedding planner cousin on a random couple’s big day. It’s an easy gig... until Solange stumbles upon a situation that convinces her the pair isn’t meant to be. What’s a true-blue romantic to do? Crash the wedding, of course. And ensure the unsuspecting groom doesn’t make the biggest mistake of his life.

Dean Chapman had his future all mapped out. He was about to check off “start a family” and on track to “make partner” when his modern day marriage of convenience went up in smoke. Then he learns he might not land an assignment that could be his ticket to a promotion unless he has a significant other and, in a moment of panic, Dean claims to be in love with the woman who crashed his wedding. Oops.

Now Dean has a whole new item on his to-do list: beg Solange to be his pretend girlfriend. Solange feels a tiny bit bad about ruining Dean’s wedding, so she agrees to play along. Yet as they fake-date their way around town, what started as a performance for Dean’s colleagues turns into a connection that neither he nor Solange can deny. Their entire romance is a sham... there’s no way these polar opposites could fall in love for real, right?

Great character and plot development! Solange and Dean’s love story feels effortless and organic.

Mia Sosa is THE AUTHOR!! Anybody sleeping on this lady had best wake up. In 2 days, I’ve listened to her last two audiobooks and I’m quite upset that I hadn’t heard of her sooner.

[Anita George · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Really fun love story ❤️ I was rooting for both characters the whole time.

[Nicole Iserman · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I loved these characters. I thought their relationship was so sweet and their banter was hilarious. Thoroughly enjoyed this one.

[Tanya Murray · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

Cute premise but got very dull very quickly. Became boring (both characters themselves and the storyline) and really dragged for me.

[Karla Petrova · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This was incredibly enjoyable and I liked it even more than The Worst Best Man!!

[Caroline Foster · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Lovely story ❤️ builds up to steamy xxx. I loved them as a couple

[luiza · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

So, I started this because of a rec, and I really liked the beginning. But it got a little slow. I liked the romance, but I think they figured their feelings out too late. However it is a funny read. And there are a lot of steamy scenes.

[Stephanie M · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I liked this take on fake dating. Solange and Dean were great together. I understood their issues and felt they were similar even if different (not sure that makes sense). The side characters in this series are amazing. They add so much humor to the book that I love them.

[Sharese · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I loved this novel! I feel like I liked this one better compared to the worst best man!

[Kizza Racheal · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

The beginning was great but the middle got slow and I lost the connection. I thought some parts dragged on while others that needed the attention didn't get enough.
Still glad that Solange and Dean got their happily ever after. I love Solange's family. They add warmth and fun to the book.

What a great book! Great plot and an interesting story. Love the ending! Can’t wait to read more of her books.

[elle · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

Anyone who uses the offensive ‘latinx’ needs a reality check. This author also seems to be racist towards black people who she believes need to be infantilised and treated as though they’re too stupid to be normal, functional people.

This book is like if a robot wrote a book mindlessly spouting every nonsensical social justice warrior point of view.

[Ana Salgado · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Love Mia Sosa. These books are just brilliant and amazing.

[Books Bea · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

cute, but they could have gotten narrators that are more familiar with Portuguese.

[sharon dean · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I really enjoy this author funny story with lots of enjoyable characters. Had me in fits of laughter at times. I often think there doesn’t need to be so much detail in the bedroom screens. My imagination works fine. Well worth the read

[Andrea Author · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

When his marriage of convenience falls through, Dean asks Solange to be his fake date for a series of meetings with a potential new colleague. The law firm is eager to lure the new recruit and her business contacts into their fold. Dean needs this win if he wants to make partner.

Solange, feeling guilty for her role in his wedding fiasco, agrees. As they get to know each other, an irresistible attraction grows between them. But the two are completely incompatible—and besides, Solange is taking an out-of-state job in a few months. This fling can't lead anywhere…can it?

This is a funny, over-the-top rom com with well-developed characters and an entertaining yet emotional plot. I was immersed in the story from the beginning, and the fun never stops. Family plays an important role, and I loved the descriptions of Brazilian food. I'm looking forward to more from this author!

Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.
