About this item

Joe Bagshaw doesn’t believe in love or marriage anymore, which is rather a hindrance for a wedding planner.

His own marriage was a whirlwind affair that ended before the ink could dry on the wedding certificate. Nevertheless, even with his divorce pending, he’s getting by. Or at least he was until he finds himself snowed in at a remote Scottish hotel with the wedding party from hell, a terrible ABBA tribute band, and his soon-to-be ex-husband.

Lachlan has missed Joe from the second his husband walked away. He wants Joe back and is prepared to do anything to get him. Being snowed in together seems to offer the chance Lachlan needs, but does he have what it takes to get Joe to trust in love and their marriage again?

From best-selling author Lily Morton comes a romantic comedy about love, matrimony, and the best of second chances.

This is the first book in the Confetti Hitched series.

This story kept me guessing at every turn. I fell in love with the writing in the first chapter, and the characters kept me coming back. I love the quirky banter and unique wedding stories. I need more and more!

Joe and Lochlan

This was a good story. I love Joe's character and the fact that he was a wedding planner. I was hoping his story would be a bit more to it than there was. I did enjoy all the characters. I'll have to check the authors' other stories as well.

Excellent story about Joe and Lachlan. Joe is my new book boyfriend! He is funny, kind, handsome. Lachlan is also funny, with joyous laughter, gorgeous and strong. Recommended.

This is a great second chance get to know your spouse better romance book! Lachlan and Joe met a wedding and had a whirlwind romance,like for married 2 days after they met. Things are obviously awkward for them right now.
Joe is a wedding planner and darn good at his job. He has to deal with some interesting people with job. He's also at a very down point with his marriage to Lachlan. He saw something, and it broke something in him.
Lachlan is older and focused on his job. He put it first instead of Joe, and it's now not what he wants.
These two are at a pivotal part of their lives. They need to get real with one another and get to know one another on a personal level.
This is not your normal romance book, it digs deep into the feels and creates a beautiful love story. I seriously loved how mature the characters acted and how they realized what went wrong with them at the beginning. They knew what they needed to do and worked on making it better. Oh and actually saying the three little words to one another (I love you).

Morton writes such funny and charming stories. I love Joe’s wit and impulsiveness almost as much as Lachlan does. From the first time he sees him, Lachlan cannot resist Joe. He’s utterly bewitched, and no matter how he tries to deny it, he can’t stay away from him. Unfortunately, fighting it so hard eventually catches up to him when Joe leaves and asks for a divorce. Lachlan has done such a good job keeping his walls up that Joe doesn’t believe Lachlan ever loved him. So he’s bewildered when Lachlan appears at a wedding Joe has organized. But fate steps in in the form of a snowstorm that forces them to spend time together and work together. It’s a good opportunity for these two to get to know each other better and for Joe to see the effects of the epiphany Lachlan had. It was impressive that Joe took as much responsibility for their break up as he did—he’s apparently more mature than I am because I did not blame him at all for leaving, and I don’t think I would have let Lachlan off the hook as much as Joe did. But it was so clear how remorseful Lachlan was, how stunned when a new hurt from the past was revealed, that I couldn’t help rooting for them to get back together.

The side characters were amusing in different ways. And I’m hoping Joe’s friend Rafferty gets a book, but I am pretty sure his boss, Jed, is, and I can’t wait.

I usually love this author and she's almost always an auto buy. I had a little trouble with this book as I wasn't enamored with either Joe or Lachlan. I was glad to see Joe get his own book after his bit part in Vow Maker but I thought he came across as a little selfish. Lachlan was also and their marriage seemed so rushed and without any basis. They were so totally different it was hard to see them together. I also agree with another reviewer that there were too many weddings with too many self important participants and I would have liked to see Frances get her comeuppance. It would have been nice if the author would have shown at least one wedding with actual nice people. There were so many good things about this, though, and I don't think the author could actually write a bad book. She writes snark and fun scenes so well. I was glad to see the HEA here but these two guys had lots of work to do on their relationship. I will be looking forward eagerly to the next book in this series, but this one wasn't her best. I'd like to see the next installment of The Model Agency series also.

Confetti Hearts by Lily Morton is beyond wonderful. Joe and Lachlan meet at a wedding Joe is working (he’s a wedding planner) and before we know it, they’re together, but then not. Without ruining the fast-paced plot, snarky humor, and seemingly endless will-they-won’t-they, I’ll say that reading this was as full of suspense as a good mystery, but with more laughs, plenty of lust, and, ultimately, love.

3.0 out of 5 stars We need more from Lachlan
Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2024
This is technically my second read of this book, but my first time was mostly a skim, and my impression was that the book spent too much time on the inconsequential, and not enough on the mysterious Lachlan.

The theme of this book is 'not communicating with each other' paired with breadcrumbing revelations. This story has the means to be something more, but, for example, when they're playing truth or dare, that should've had more meat to it, it was only one question which Lachlan gave kind of a non-answer to (his ongoing theme in the book), cut short by more nonsense.

I also skipped the prologue, because I remembered i didn't like it's placement in the book. By my second read, it was like reading it for the first time, because i largely forgot most of it. This was a good choice. I went back to read the prologue in Between the past and present sections of the book, and it fits a lot better.

Reading the prologue first in my first reading made me hate Lachlan too much to even want to get to know him. But he only has like maybe three moments from his pov. Not saying it should be 50/50, but we need more from him. I do feel like Joe got swept up in his hormones as much the second time around as he did in his initial meetings of Lachlan, forgiving him too quickly, when Lachlan was still rather bad at being forthright by the end of the story.

In my first reading, i gave this a 2/5, but I'm upping it to 3/5, because it's readable, just a bit too frustrating at times, leaving the reader wanting to hop in the drivers seat a bit too much.
