“...too good to be true, and too good to pass up in Jacobs’ very sweet tale of true love.”

— Maria Hatton, Booklist, November 1, 2007 (starred review)

“Holly Jacobs has a knack for creating likable characters... a fun, romantic story of two people who discover they need each other.”

— Lesa Holstine, USA Today, December 27, 2007

Every Hungarian Grandma knows that words have power. Nana Salo never meant the words she said in anger to become a family curse, but that’s just what happened. Her granddaughter Vancy is just the newest victim. Vancy’s fiance has left her at the altar, and now the press is after a hot Grandma-curses-granddaughter’s-wedding story.

Vancy doesn’t believe in the Salo Wedding Curse, but when her groom ditches her and the press is hot on her heels, she’s not quite so sure anymore. She’s hiding out with Matt Wilde, owner of the Everything Wilde landscaping business, helping out with his two newly-inherited nephews as she figures out what to do.

Matt doesn’t believe in curses either, but he seems cursed with thoughts of Vancy Salo that he just can’t seem to shake.

A hoard of reporters, a guilty grandma, a gaggle of other family members, and two four-year-olds that both steal their hearts and wreak their own havoc: it’s not exactly a classic situation for falling in love...but that’s just what may be happening for Vancy and Matt.
