Social worker LUCIE KELLERMAN is five days away from the wedding of her dreams. Well, the wedding of her mother’s dreams. Lucie’s just happy that she’s finally doing something her parents approve of, and she’s thrilled that her relationship with her mother has never been better. There’s only one problem. Ever since she met bartender Daniel Martinez, she’s started questioning whether or not the life – and the man – she’s about to commit to are the ones she really wants.

DANIEL MARTINEZ has spent the two decades since his father died doing the right thing and looking out for his siblings. With such a big, involved family, alone-time is a thing of myth, and he’s used to putting himself last. But that’s all about to change. For the first time in his life, he’s about to embark on an adventure all by himself. Eight weeks in Mexico – volunteering with a children’s literacy organization.  At least that was the plan, until fate gives him a birthday gift in the form of Lucie Kellerman. Now he has a choice to make. Will he give in to temptation and tell Lucie how he really feels, or stay silent and watch the woman of his dreams walk down the aisle and into the arms of a man he knows in his heart isn’t right for her.
