On the day of Theo’s rally, Maddie was there to cheer him on. They discovered they had more in common than they had once believed. Maddie told Theo about a job proposition she had that would allow her to host a styling show on television. Theo kept Maddie updated about a campaign for universal pre-kindergarten for which he was trying to get a rally scheduled in Berkley. They also went out to eat together when Ben gave Theo a gift card to an expensive restaurant. They reasoned that since Theo worked with Alexa every day, they could see each other at any time.
Maddie and Theo began breaking the rules they had made almost immediately. They agreed to meet for sex only after they had spent the day with Alexa, not to go on dates, and above all, not to tell Alexa what was happening. Maddie was going to be a bridesmaid in the wedding while Alexa had asked Theo to be a bridesman, so they knew there was no way for them to avoid their sexual attraction to one another. Maddie then decided their relationship needed rules. Maddie and Theo had sex again six weeks later, after they encountered each other at a city council meeting, and then again after Alexa’s engagement party. She went inside his apartment to make him prove to her that he could dance and the two wound up in bed together. Instead of allowing him to take a ride share home, Maddie insisted he ride with her. At the end of the evening, Theo offered to walk Maddie to her car. They had a joint mission that Drew not be allowed to hurt Alexa again. Maddie and Theo connected at the party because they saw that Alexa’s ex-boyfriend, Drew, was there. He wished that she had not taken such an instant dislike to him. Theo, on the other hand, hated that he had seemed like such a jerk the first time he spoke to Maddie. She remembered that Theo had been condescending of her and her job the first time she met him. Maddie only went to Theo’s birthday party because Alexa, a mutual best friend, did not want to go alone.
When Alexa confronted Theo and Maddie on the day of her wedding, insisting that they acknowledge their love for each other, Theo and Maddie realized they had been fooling no one but themselves with their secret. They decided to allow themselves to have a casual sexual relationship while they were both serving as members of Alexa Monroe’s wedding party.
Even though they believed they hated each other, they had sex together and found it very pleasurable. The Wedding Party by Jasmine Guillory, Maddie Forest and Theo Stephens believed they were fooling everyone with a secret relationship they were enjoying in the months leading up to Alexa’s wedding. The following version of this book was used to create this study guide: Guillory, Jasmine.
