The last place Fern wants to be is back home as the Maid of Honor in her cousin's wedding.

She's at a cabin by herself for a few days getting ready for a bachelor/bachelorette party weekend when rough and tough Gabe bursts through the door. Thinking he's an intruder, she starts throwing punches, causing a brawl in the kitchen. She finds out he's a professional hockey player and a teammate of her brother.

Fern doubts every instinct she has due to her horrid past decisions with men, but after a few days of mind-blowing chemistry, they hatch up a secret "weekend pass" option so they can be close. But after an out-of-control bachelor/bachelorette weekend, a high-speed chase, and bar brawls, Fern hears a shocking conversation, causing her to bolt.

Gabe finds her and persuades her for another chance at the same time her brother finds out, and all hell breaks loose. After an unexpected twist and a decision that ends up with her bringing a fake date to the wedding, the bride disappears with cold feet. Fern has no option but to turn to Gabe to help find the bride in time.
