The frighteningly prolific Roberts (see also Black Hills
, reviewed on page 42) kicks off a frothy series about four friends who form an all-inclusive wedding service called Vows. Mackensie “Mac” Elliot loves capturing happy and playful moments with her camera, but her own life is all about work—until she meets English teacher Carter Maguire. He’s escorting his bride-to-be sister to a meeting with the Vows team and recognizes Mac as the girl he crushed out on in high school. Funny sparks fly: he’s a geeky guy who quotes Shakespeare, she’s a trendy workaholic who loves shoes. He’s crazy about her, which makes him verbally clumsy and, to Mac, charming, though she’s saddled with a needy mother, an absent father and difficulties with both that make falling in love complicated. Roberts pulls off a nice switch in making the woman afraid of saying “I do,” and her gentle humor and likable cast will immediately endear this series to readers. (May)
