AN OCTOBER BRIDE by Katie Ganshert

Now this is the type of fake wedding I can approve of.  Is your face like, WHAT? right now, well my explanation comes in the form of this review.

While putting the mail on her father's desk, Emma Tate accidentally knocked over his day planner book and a piece of paper fell out.  On the paper was her father's bucket list and everything was crossed out; all except one.  The one that was not marked of was to walk Emma down the aisle.

Shocked my this information, Emma knows that her father does not have much time in this world and wants to do this for him.  But who would be her groom?  She cannot call her ex-fiance of two years for this, that's just cruel.

Help comes in the most surprising place in the form of Jake Sawyer, a life long friend of hers.  He was the one to "propose" to her and set this whole idea in motion.

With this secret only between the two of them, can they really pull of a fake wedding and fool not only her parents, but the entire small town Midwest town as well?

Find out Emma and Jake's story in the October installment of A Year of Weddings Novella.

+Katie Ganshert was amazing, awesome, stupendous and just plain Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.  Okay, I might have over killed it but An October Bride is the first book in the series that actually felt like a completed book.  There were no loose ends I felt needed to be further explained.

Love was what really drove Emma to do what she did, but what was Jack's motive?  It already had confusion for instead of Emma asking Jack, it was the other way around. (Mystery Music)

I was shocked that no one asked much questions, I mean this is Emma we're talking about here.  She take forever before she makes a decision.  It took her two weeks to pick out a paint color for her bathroom and in the course of a day, she's engaged!  At least someone came up with an explanation, a mean one, but an explanation none the less.  

Spoiler alert, Jack is a coward!  I know, not much of a spoiler but Jack did not have the courage to do things right that's why at the end he made me cry. Oh Jack...

Moving on, fun characters, believable scenario and a heartbreaking story about love and loss, this book would have you wanting to cry without the tears (if that makes any sense to you).  


HAPPY READINGS!

BED OF ROSES (Book two in the Brides Quarlet) By Nora Roberts

I love flowers but not as much as Miss Emmaline Grant, she lives for them.  Emma is part owner of Vows, which is in the wedding business and Emma's part is with the flowers.  The bouquet, the table center piece, once it involves flowers, Emma does it and does it with a fairy tale quality. Growing up with a love story like her parents, Emma's head constantly romanticizes everything.  She keep looking for Mr Right and she found him in Jack. Jack Cooke is a enjoy them now and leave them before they get to close kind of guy.  His mindset encourages him into not wanting or needing a relationship knowing that they never last and people get hurt. With Emma, there was no holding back and he was constantly hesitating when she says or does something that he thinks violates his space. He constantly hurts Emma unintentionally and Emma feels as if she has to frequently hold back her feelings so as not to scare Jack off. Shit hit the fan when she couldn't take ho...

GETTING BETTER

Sorry for not updating for a while.  I have been sick for the past week and the glare from my computer screen made my eyes and head hurt more than it did, so I banned myself from my computer until I was better. It has not completely left me yet, but I am getting better and the computer screen no longer hurt my eyes.  The only thing is that I am backed up with all of my reviews.  I read a lot when I was sick, seemed like the only thing I could do.  I did not even have the energy to go to school for the first week. I'm getting better now and look forward for my new reviews and I might post more than one this week.
