While You Were Speaking by Maria Hoagland

♥ He wasn’t supposed to fall in love with his brother’s fiancée. She wasn’t supposed to fall in love at all. ♥

Lucy Morrowitz has two dreams. First, to reopen the Starlight Drive-In Theater left to her by her parents. Second, to marry her celebrity crush—motivational speaker Carter Hughes. Neither goal is attainable until her co-worker, morning show DJ Crew Keller, convinces the community to save the small-town landmark. When Carter Hughes accepts her Hail Mary of an invitation to give the kickoff speech at the Harvest Ranch spring cleanup, suddenly, neither dream feels as far out of reach.

Zachary Hughes has never been much of a dreamer. He doesn’t have as glamorous a job as his brother, but it’s steady and reliable, even if he doesn’t love it. He’s not as well-known, but there’s nothing Carter has that Zach envies—until he meets his fiancée. Because of her, Zach finds himself reaching for more: A job he looks forward to every day. A town where he’s known, and not just as Carter’s little brother. And the perfect person to spend his life with—someone who laughs with him, challenges him, accepts him, loves him. Someone like Lucy.

Are these dreams that will bring either one of them happiness? Perhaps the motivational speakers are right—Lucy and Zach can reach their dreams—they just have to make sure they’re reaching for the right ones.
