A sweet, funny, growing-from-tragedy, friends-to-lovers romance begins award-winning author Karina Bliss's military series.

Love heals all wounds...

Special Forces soldier Dan Jansen has come home from Afghanistan with one objective: to marry Josephine Swann. First he has to convince his childhood friend that their marriage 'agreement,' a tipsy scrawl on a beer coaster three years ago, is binding. And that platonic love is enough to build a passionate future on.

Protect those you love...

Jo has only thought of Dan 'that way' once; the night before a surgery that changed her life forever. Friendship is all she has to offer as she struggles to care for her grandmother and resurrect her business.

Both have wounds only the other can heal. But that requires surrendering their secrets. Can two best friends create a love story for the ages?

"I've announced the next book club pick: Karina Bliss' Here Comes the Groom, and it's lovely fun reading. I would venture to say it causes one to be washed on the warm baking sands of love's splendid shores of good reading bliss…" Smart Bitches Love Trashy Books.

"If I had to summarize what I think the skill of a good romance author is, then it is this ability. To use what everyone loves about the romance genre, without letting those conventions take over. And you do this really well." Dear Author.
