Prologue
Auggie stood at the front of the church and watched her walk down the aisle. The bridesmaidsā dresses Lottie chose were very Lottie. Sleek. Sexy. Baring.
All the women looked great in them, but none of them looked better than Pepper.
And he thought that even before Pepper, as she strutted down the aisle, caught sight of her daughter, Juno, and shot her girl a huge smile.
Pepper Hannigan was gorgeous.
Anytime she was with her daughter?
Knockout.
They were the next in the line of Lottieās matches. Auggie and Pepper.
Mo and Lottie were the obvious firsts (Mo was one of Augās four best buds), and Lottie earning the love of Mo had been all Lottieās idea.
Mo never thought heād find anyone as fantastic as Lots, would never go for it, until Lottie talked him around.
Now Mo was standing at the front of their line, waiting to make her his wife.
Once Lottie got her happy ending, she set about giving the same thing to Moās friends…fixing them up with her own crew.
And so far, sheād done a bang-up job.
Mag and Evie, the second couple, were living together and getting married.
Boone and Ryn, the third, were tight, and further, they were in business together.
Axl and Hattie, the fourth, were as good as living together, and practically inseparable. It was him and Pepper who were the holdouts.
This was not for lack of trying on Auggieās part.
Once heād met her, Auggie saw no reason not to go for it.
She was gorgeous. She was funny. She spoke her mind. She was laid back. Together. She didnāt seem to have any hang-ups.
But Pepper saw reason not to give it a shot because she had a kid.
He got it. She was being careful. Whatever had torn her and Junoās dad apart had made her skittish.
So yeah.
He got it.
That didnāt mean it wasnāt torture.
Like right now, when her eyes caught his, the smile that she gave her kid still in them,
and Auggie felt that. He felt it.
Damn.
It wasnāt even aimed at him in any real way, and that residual love sheād targeted at her daughter was so big, it took forever to fade away.
Heād never felt that kind of love.
Not once in his life.
And he wanted it so bad, the backs of his teeth hurt with the need to taste it.
He lost her attention when she shifted to take her place at the front of the church and
Auggie tore his gaze away from her to watch the next woman, Hattie, march down the aisle. On its way, his gaze snagged on Juno.
Dark hair to her momās blonde, she was all dressed up, her hair curled āher mom was a bridesmaid in a big wedding with all the prep that entailed, but it was clear Juno had not been forgotten.
She was staring at her mother, beaming with pride.
Seeing that beam made Auggie want even more of what heād never had. From the both of them.
eaming with pride.

šReviewš
Pepper is determined to be the best mother she can be for her daughter Juno and she believes the best way to do that is to remain single. Based on her romantic history it is not a big sacrifice, but she wasnāt prepared for Auggie to break through the walls she had built around her help with the help of her matchmaking daughter.
Auggie wants to be part of Pepper and Junoās life and he is willing to be patient and understanding as he proves it to her. He has a difficult past of his own that only makes you respect him more and he will do whatever is necessary to keep his new family safe.
After every thing that Pepper and Auggie have been through there are no two people who are more deserving of a happy ever after. It was wonderful to learn more about Pepper and Auggie and see the relationship unfold between them as well as catch up with the characters we know and love.
