Publisher's Summary:
From Beth Harbison, the New York Times best-selling author of When in Doubt, Add Butter and Shoe Addicts Anonymous, comes Chose the Wrong Guy, Gave Him the Wrong Finger, a delightful new novel that will make you look at second chances in a whole new way.
Ten years ago, Quinn Barton was on her way to the altar to marry Burke Morrison, her high school sweetheart, when something derailed her. Rather, someone derailed her - the Best Man who at the last minute begged her to reconsider the marriage. He told her that Burke had been cheating on her. For a long time. Quinn, stunned, hurt, and confused, struggled with the obligation of fulfilling her guests expectations - providing a wedding - and running for her life.
She chose running. With the Best Man. Who happened to be Burkes brother, Frank.
That relationship didnt work either. How could it, when Quinn had been engaged to, in love with, Franks brother? Quinn opts for neither, and, instead, spends the next 17 years working in her familys Middleburg, Virginia, bridal shop, Talk of the Gown, where she subconsciously does penance for the disservice she did to marriage.
But when the two men return to town for another wedding, old anger, hurt, and passion resurface. Just because youve traded the good guy for the bad guy for no guy doesnt mean you have to stay away from love for the rest of your life, does it? Told with Beth Harbison's flair for humor and heart, Chose the Wrong Guy will keep you guessing and make you believe in the possibilities of love.

Oops
I listened to and loved Driving With the Top Down so I took a shot at this one; wish I hadn't done that. I gave up on this one after an excruciatingly long seven hours. Even when broken down into hour long segments even those seemed to drag on intermediately and in excruciating detail about a woman who even according to her lives a boring in a small boring town. Well now that's just great, so glad you decided to share it with us but I could have done without the insomnia cure.
Beth Harbison is usually an excellent writer and Orlagh Cassidy's has a smooth pleasant voice and does a good job with this audiobook. Though in retrospect that might have been part of the problem; her voice was so smooth that it further flattened the story. I enjoyed Driving With the Top Down enough to take a shot at another of her novels on audio but this one ain't it.
Good story, but not great
I truly love Beth Harbison books, but this one seemed to drag a bit, slow. I will still read others of her work though!
Awesome!
Another book I am in love with. it made laugh and even cry a little. very good book....
Not my usual expectation from Beth Harbison
I usually love Beth Harbison books but I guess I favor the ones that have multiple main characters. I wanted to hear more of a story but this book mostly focused on the character's inner emotional progress more than anything. Not that it was bad just not what I feel like I typically hear in a Beth Harbison book.
B rating....
My Review:
Overall.... 3.50
Performance... 3.50
Story.... 3.50
Beth Harbison's books tend to fall more under women's fiction than my normal straight romance genres that I like to read, but every once in a while, I grab one on audio for something different. I absolutely adore the title of this one which is definitely what grabbed me and the story sounded intriguing.
This book is okay.
