When floundering twentysomething Lottie Jones lands a new career as an event floral designer at a top-tier boutique event firm, she begins navigating a cutthroat workplace specializing in over-the-top details and unlimited budgets. Whether planning for helicopter landings or dealing with inebriated groomsmen, she has her hands full at every million-dollar wedding she helps organize. When her boss announces he' s opening a new office, Lottie sees her chance to finally carve out her place-and earn an income that might give her some freedom. The weddings get bigger, the clients get wilder, the mishaps get funnier, and the stakes get higher. And Lottie' s forced to discover what she' ll risk for love and how far she' ll go to find herself. Set against the glamorous, cutthroat world of high-end Southern weddings and inspired by real events in the authors' lives, Without a Hitch is a coming-of-age story about taking ownership, facing fears, and choosing a happy ending that wasn' t what you once expected.
' Huddleston and Paul' s debut is a charming balance of dishy detail about high-end weddings and coming-of-age workplace comedy, featuring a plucky and appealing heroine whose misadventures will delight readers. While there are some romantic elements, it' s not a romantic comedy--the focus is on Lottie' s personal and professional growth rather than a happily-ever-after. Fans of Sophie Kinsella and Meg Cabot will enjoy this sassy Southern take on chick lit. ' * Booklist * ' Wonderfully over-the-top characters add verve . . . This raucous and well-plotted romp will charm any reader with their eye on a pair of Louboutins fit for walking down the aisle. ' * Publishers Weekly *
