About the Bridesmaid for Hire series

Bridesmaid for Hire is a spin-off of Meghan Quinn's Almond Bay series, set in the same coastal small town and built around a professional-bridesmaid-for-hire business, giving each book a built-in wedding-adjacent, forced-proximity premise. Bridesmaid for Hire introduces the business and its first case; Bridesmaid Undercover raises the stakes with a love-triangle, undercover-assignment hook; Bridesmaid by Chance closes the trilogy with the last member of the business finding her own match.

Because the series shares its town and side characters with Almond Bay, readers who enjoyed the Rowley siblings' books will recognize familiar faces here, even though each Bridesmaid for Hire book follows its own new couple and stands alone as a romance. The wedding-industry setting gives Quinn plenty of room for her usual set-piece comedy, disastrous rehearsal dinners, meddling brides, professional decorum breaking down under attraction, layered over her typical banter-and-heat style.

This is a natural next stop for readers finishing Almond Bay who want to stay in the same fictional town, or a fine entry point on its own for readers drawn to a wedding-planner romcom hook.
