I probably wouldn't have chosen this book if not for the free book swap basket at my local library and I'll admit I do judge books by their covers, but this book ended up being one of my favorites. The hysterics of wedding planning really hit home and the plot and characters were sweet. I would recommend this book to anyone.

Jakarta (also known as "Jack") is determined never to fall in love or get married. She's seen her five sisters deal with boys and doesn't think they are worth the hassle. Plus, she's doomed by the "wedding curse": her dates at her sisters' weddings have turned out disastrous.
Two of her sisters are planning summer weddings and she's involved but sticking to her vow to not get herself into a relationship.
Then she meets Leo. He is the wedding planner's son, so he and Jack are thrown together in the wedding preparations. Leo isn't like the other guys. He wants to get to know Jack and believes he can break the "wedding curse." Yet Jack keeps herself busy with her sisters' plans to keep her mind off Leo. It's not that easy, though, as Leo manages to appear everywhere!
This is fun novel about falling in love, wedding chaos, and just making time for what's important. I enjoyed getting to know Jack as well as her sisters. Part of the appeal in this novel is not only wondering what's going to happen with Jack and Leo but also about her sisters and their relationships.
Will the weddings take place without a hitch?
