When the wedding of your sister is the easiest thing happening.

Synopsis

Sun, sea and inescapable exes…

Peach is excited to hear that her sister, Di, is getting married. Of course, she would have preferred her little sister to be engaged to someone she’s known longer than a week – and the fact that his name is Charles doesn’t bode well – but who is she to judge?! Afterall, her own love life is non-existent, and who doesn’t love a destination wedding…?

Whisked away to the gorgeous Italian coast, Peach assumes her role as chief bridesmaid and, despite her reservations about the groom, she tries to ensure everything goes to plan.

But weddings are never straightforward affairs… throw in some unexpected guests in the form of ex-boyfriends and one night stands, and soon enough there is more drama than a reality tv show.

Can Peach keep the show on the road, or might she end up in a whirlwind romance of her own…?

Escape to the stunning Italian coast with bestseller Portia MacIntosh. Perfect for fans of Sophie Ranald and Mhairi MacFarlane.

My review

Peach is left a bit flabbergasted when her sister Di decides to getting married to a man she barely knows.
But of course, the only thing that matters, is Di’s happiness. And if that means that Di is going to marry a man named Charles, so be it. especially when the wedding will be taking place on a beautiful Italian coast!
However, some of the other guests are not Peach’s best friends. And when a one night stand appears to be also attending, together with ex – boyfriends, the wedding itself seems to be the least of her worries, even if she keeps on having her own reservations.

Whenever I read a story written by this author, I know I will enjoy every bit of it!

And with this story, it already starts with the first chapter! At first I was a bit confused, thinking I missed a few pages because when we meet Peach, she is looking at a wedding venue for her wedding. So I was nearly freaking out.
But my worries were unjustified. Because when it’s made all clear, I was laughing at loud, wishing I could be doing the same thing!
And the prelude to her one night stand was something funny yet also sweet. So when the guy just disappears, I was as disappointed as Peach was, because the click and sparks just flew over the pages!

Peach is just a wonderful character to get to know. She is an amazing and loving sister. Because even if she doesn’t understand why Di wants to get married so quickly and she discovers something about Charles, all she wants is that her sister is happy. And that means Peach puts her own not so positive thoughts aside, spending time with Di’s friend even if she absolutely loathes her.

And Matt… is there any other man that would match even more perfectly for Peach? I’m not telling you too much about Matt, because I want you to discover him all by yourself!

However… how lovely (or not…) the characters were, it was the whole adventure that made me laugh, relax and have a blast!
This story is full of hilarious misunderstandings, unfinished business and people appearing out of the blue with the wrong reasons of being there. However confusing it may seem at some point, all the pieces of the puzzle fall perfectly together.
And the ending of this book… I cannot say more than just ‘WONDERFUL’!!!!

This author managed AGAIN to write a story that was impossible to put away. And yes, I gave up my sleep for it, so after finishing the book, I was in a cranky mood because the lack of sleep and because I already finished it!

I found this a very entertaining, funny book. Even if some characters took some time to like/love, they all were characters I wanted to be happy.
I cannot wait to read more from this author, knowing that each book of her is something I truly enjoy!
