Love Me Like You Do by Aimee Brown

From Goodreads

A runaway bride. A handsome stranger. Two pasts to put behind them.

Parker is ready to marry the man of her dreams. But he isn't ready to marry her. It would be helpful if he didn't choose their wedding day to tell her this. But as she flees from the travesty behind her, she literally runs into the arms of a handsome stranger. The southern drawl, the dreamy eyes, she can't fall for another man after being left at the altar – can she?

When Liam agreed to go to go on a date he didn't expect to leave with the bride. Nor did he expect to take her the emergency room. Immediately he's drawn to her fiery spirit, her kind heart and beautiful smile. Liam's got a whole host of problems and a past that keeps coming back, now can't be the time to fall in love, but Parker might just be the one to break down his barriers and let him live a little – if she'll let him in.

Will these two strangers allow serendipity to put them together, or will their fears keep them apart?

From the bestselling author of The Lucky Dress comes a story about love, finding yourself and living your dreams.

My thoughts

My thanks to Victoria Joss from Head of Zeus publishers for a copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review in order to take part of the Blog Tour for it.

I gave this a 4 stars or 8/10.

As the life that Parker knew implodes around her on her Wedding Day, finding someone new to fall for is the last thing on her mind. Meet Liam a guest at her Wedding, that becomes more involved in events than he intended.

As Parker comes to terms with what has happened to her, she finds herself drawn to Liam against her better judgement. She shouldn't be falling for someone so soon after the non Wedding to end all non Weddings or should she?

This was a lovely story that is the perfect antidote to take us away from all that is happening around us at the moment, it is pure escapism. Aimee Brown has woven a gentle romance around a chance meeting at a Wedding. It is not every day that the Bride ends up falling for one of the guests.

This was the first story that I have read by this Author and I will look forward to reading others by her in due course. It's well written and I found it an engaging premise, that kept me hooked and wanting to know what happened to Parker and Liam.
