on in horror as Amelia threw up her veil. “What?” she snapped.

Luka glanced back at his parents and his grandmother, who all looked like they’d seen the same ghost. “I’m sorry,” he told them, his skin ashen. “I got wrapped up in it all. I—” His gaze fell to Amelia’s. “I’m sorry. I can’t go through with this. I don’t love you anymore.”

Luka stumbled and turned to run away, only he didn’t get far.

Beckett leapt up from his seat and punched Luka dead center in the face, sending him soaring backward to land hard on the ground.

Maisie sighed, leaning over to Clara, and said, “Now this, this I expected.”

Clara’s heart broke for Amelia, who began crying. Her dream wedding, her perfect life, crashing around her as she took off running out the side door.

Sullivan was there a second later. “Go. I’ve got Mason. Go.”

He did have Mason, and they had each other. “I know you have us both,” she said, and his warm smile hit her right in the heart. She gave him a quick kiss then ran after Amelia, with Maisie in tow. With each and every click of her heels against the cement floor, she knew the exact advice she was going to give Amelia—life can be messy. It can be scary. It never goes how you want it to. But somehow, in all of it, there is love. All you need to do is look in the right place to find it.

From USA Today bestselling author Stacey Kennedy comes a sexy and sweet romance about a jilted bride who is done with men, a down-on-his-luck cowboy who can’t catch a break, and a game of spin the beer bottle that leaves them both a little love drunk.

Everyone at Three Chicks Brewery knows that Amelia Carter has the magic touch when it comes to creating the perfect beer. Her ales have customers singing her praises and begging for more. Unfortunately, when it comes to love, the only magic she seems to have is the cursed kind. After being left at the altar by her ex-fiancé, Amelia gives up on the idea of happily ever after to focus on making the Carter family brewery a national success.

Beckett Stone starts to believe in happily ever after the day Amelia’s worthless ex bails on their wedding, finally giving Beckett another chance with his high school sweetheart—the only woman he’s ever loved. Unfortunately, Amelia’s broken heart is just one of the obstacles Beckett needs to overcome if he wants to win her for good. He knows he’s not the man Amelia deserves, particularly with his money-pit of a house, a 1975 truck that barely runs, an alcoholic father, and a universe that seems to have a twisted sense of humor when it comes to giving Beckett a break.

But when pressure mounts to make the Three Chicks Brewery’s top beer, Foxy Diva, into a huge success, Amelia starts to fall apart, and Beckett swoops in with his gentle reassurances and hard-work ethic. While the last thing Amelia wants is to fall in love again, she can’t deny that her heart beats a little faster whenever she sees Beckett walk through the door. Soon, every warm caress and soft whisper of understanding becomes a balm to both of them. As Beckett makes his intentions clear, Amelia must decide if she can overcome her shattered heart and believe in the magic of true love again.
