Without a Hitch

Co-written with Asher’s lifelong friend Mary Hollis Huddleston, Without A Hitch is set against the glamorous, ruthless world of high-end Southern weddings and inspired by real events in our careers as a wedding planner and celebrity journalist. Named an Amazon Editors’ pick, it’s a coming-of-age story about taking ownership, facing fears, planning your ex-boyfriend’s wedding, and choosing a happy ending that wasn’t what you expected.

WITHOUT A HITCH is a delightfully quirky novel that proves the age old adage ‘We plan, God laughs.’ Filled with fascinating insights into the world of high-end wedding planning, you can’t help but cheer for Lottie Jones as she learns that you can’t script your life and that, sometimes, the best laid plans are the ones you never make.

Put a ring on WITHOUT A HITCH — a sweet, Southern confection of a book about what it takes to orchestrate everyone else’s happily ever after when your own heart has been broken. A sneak peek into the world of high-end wedding planning will keep you laughing as Lottie deconstructs the fairytale and finds her authentic self.

Piece of Cake

As a sequel to Without A Hitch, Piece of Cake again incorporates many of our own personal experiences in magazine journalism and, of course, in event planning. Set against Nashville’s booming Bachelorette industry and some of the South’s most lavish weddings, a former society darling is trying to save her job and rebuild her reputation. It’s a redemption story filled with the same humor, heart, and wedding shenanigans as our first novel.

 Praise for Piece of Cake

In the latest from the duo who wrote Without a Hitch, Claire Sommers tries to put her past behind her after she made a mistake that hurt people and her reputation . . . With a mix of The Hating Game by Sally Thorne and Planning for Love by Christi Barth, readers will find this story about redemption and letting go worthwhile.

Like a perfect piece of cake, I devoured this delicious escape into the over-the-top world of Southern weddings. Huddleston and Paul once again deliver a laugh-out-loud peek into an alternate universe where weddings are a competitive sport and there’s no such thing as too much bling. A joyful escape that will leave you laughing and craving cake and Nashville hot chicken.
