Saying “I Do” has never been such a mess.

Marlee Medford just got dumped. Yes, things have become ho-hum in her longtime relationship, but she was two days away from walking down the aisle with the man she thought was her forever when he called it off. Convincing herself that they’d be able to reignite their spark once the wedding craziness settled? That was easy. Suddenly finding herself without a fiancé? Not so much. Marlee needs to regain control of her life, and a weekend away with her friends is a solid first step.

One of Denver’s best up-and-coming chefs, perpetual bachelor Eli Howard, isn’t into serious relationships—especially the kind that ends in marriage. As if to prove his point that they aren’t worth the trouble, the wedding he was supposed to be catering just fell apart. Feeling oddly protective of the jilted bride—his little sister’s best friend—his weekend plans now involve a trip to Sin City with her group of friends. But it looks like he had a bit too much fun in Vegas when he wakes up married…wedding night included.

Marlee’s attempts at getting her life back together are failing miserably. Her ex-fiancé is taking the house, her chihuahua is intent on a love affair with Eli’s sneakers, and she’s now accidentally hitched to the guy who can't even say the word marriage. With their quickie annulment denied, Eli and Marlee just have to hang tight until the divorce goes through. It’s just a little divorce amongst friends, what’s the worst that could happen?

Take It Off the Menu is book three of the Mile High Matched series, but stands alone and can be read in any order. If you love a hunky caterer and an accidental marriage, this book is for you! Buy now for a fun, friends-to-lovers romance!
 

My Review  5 STARS
**My thanks to the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

Finally we get Eli's story and what a story it is.  We got a slight taste of it in the previous book, however Marlee and Eli are a brilliant match.

Marlee and Eli have know each other for many years as she is one of his sisters best friends and he has had to bail them out from trouble many times in the past.

However after Marlee's fiancee dumps her two days before their wedding he and her friends turn up to pack her things before an impromptu holiday to vegas.  Eli only goes along in order to make sure he is there when the trouble arises, unfortunately with a game of dare and having drunk far too much, both Marlee and Eli find out the next morning that they got married to each other.  

Marlee is a vert strong woman and sticks up for what she wants and she has a lovely heart, she makes more new friends that are true to her, rather than to her money and she shows Eli that a relationship is is as bad as he thinks.

I enjoyed the crazy in this book, Babushka and her antics and everything about this book.  I cannot wait to see Sadie and Romans story.
