The Proposal

Jasmine Guillory

Book 2 of The Wedding Date

When freelance journalist Nik is publicly proposed to by her boyfriend on the Jumbotron at a Dodgers game, she's rescued from the spectacle by a kind stranger, Carlos, and his sister. What starts as a casual rebound fling between Nik and Carlos, a commitment-wary doctor devoted to his family, gradually deepens into something neither expected. Set against a backdrop of Los Angeles food and family gatherings, the story also touches on race, media scrutiny, and recovering from a subtly controlling past relationship.
