Love is the worst complication…

After a failed marriage and quitting her high-pressure job, Carrie Steinhem is ready for uncomplicated fun. Love? Not what she’s looking for. She’d rather crash a wedding with her friends and find a hot hookup. The bride’s father is onto her, though. But just as her night out veers toward public embarrassment, a sizzling stranger sweeps in and claims Carrie as his date.

Potential hookup? Check. If she doesn’t get cold feet first.

Ryan Burton is on the fast track to a promotion…assuming he can avoid distractions and nail this new account. Except the woman he rescued at a friend’s wedding ends up not only being his new neighbor—she’s his client’s ex-wife. And his client has every intention of winning her back.

Carrie and Ryan would love to leave complicated alone, but when two people share a duplex and irresistible chemistry, temptation—and love—is right around the corner…

I received Going All the Way for free. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

There are three elements I can’t resist in a romance novel. A wedding, showing up an ex, and a dog! Going All the Way has all three.

Carrie is ready to find her bliss after two years of insurmountable stress in the professional and private arena of her life. Ryan is floating from town to town as a new assignment comes up for the family consulting business. These two have no business beginning a relationship, yet their instant chemistry can’t keep them away from each other. Carrie is a wedding crasher and Ryan is her knight in shinning armor when the father of the bride questions her. Their heat leads to a hot make out session in a broom closet! Wow-wee!

The fun times don’t stop there, but business and Carrie’s ex get in the way. Thank God for the dog, Riley! He’s a a feisty furball ready to help his out of practice people find romance.

I love how both Ryan and Carrie make a journey to the versions of themselves they are needing to be without the story getting too emotional. The flow was consistent, keeping me happy and hoping throughout the entire read.

Going All the Way is a fun, energetic love story with the right amount twists and turns I needed to keep me engaged. I can’t wait to read more from Cynthia Cooke and the Kiss the Bride series soon!
