LA romcom writer Mia Valentina has it all; money, success, a tanned and toned body, golden blonde hair and a string of sexy lovers. She’s almost forgotten her previous self: plain old Mia Harrison. Until a wedding invitation arrives requesting (demanding!) her presence as chief bridesmaid at her younger sister Belle’s upcoming nuptials.
Mia’s barely been back in England before she’s accidentally injured the groom, unintentionally ‘cursed’ the wedding and been caught in a compromising position with her sister’s soon to be brother-in-law!
With the wedding of the year going dangerously off the rails, Mia has no time to waste – especially with sexy fireman and best man Leo on hand to help… Will she use all of her expert romance knowledge to save the day or will she just walk away? No one ever said a bad girl had to turn good…
I have to admit I was a bit worried when I first started this book as this is a different genre and style of book than Portia usually writes, but as soon as I was a few pages in this worry went away and from reading this book I truly think she could write anything. I finished this book in 2 days because it just sucked me in, the writing style and how simple yet addictive it was made it impossible for me to stop reading.
As everyone that reads my reviews will know I love romance books and anything of the sort, so I think this was a big reason why I loved this book, Portia has made it laugh out loud funny and romantic. It is an entertaining read that you can get through in no time.
Mia is one of those people that you love but are very jealous of, she’s living her dream in LA, with nobody to answer to and living her life to the full. Some of the situations she gets herself into are hilarious and so embarrassing that you can’t help feel for her but still laugh. She is so realistic and the fact that Portia has made her this way makes you love the book and the characters even more. All of the characters have something to give to the story and they are all very funny and interesting so you never get bored of any of them. When Mia is asked to fly home to be bridesmaid at her sister’s upcoming wedding she can’t think of anything worse as she has no intention of ever falling in love or settling down. Being a bridesmaid changes her more than you would think, what happens? Well you are just going to have to read the book and find out!
I don’t want to say much more because I want everybody to pick up a copy of this book and enjoy it as much as I did. I would recommend this book to anybody that wants lots of laugh and love, it is the perfect beach read or one to read with a cup of tea on the sofa. Portia’s books make me laugh until I cry and she well and truly deserves 5 stars. I definitively think there is a bright future ahead for Portia and her books. Bring on the next one!
