Daughters of the Bride by Susan Mallery


Product DetailsDaughters of the Bride by Susan Mallery

Book Description:

"With Joy, Love and a Little Trepidation, Courtney, Sienna and Rachel Invite You to the Most Emotional Wedding of the Year…Their Mother's 
Courtney 
The Misfit 
As the awkward one, Courtney Watson may not be as together as her sisters, but she excels at one thing—keeping secrets, including her white-hot affair with a sexy music producer. Planning Mom's wedding exposes her startling hidden life, changing her family's view of her—and how she views herself—forever. 
Sienna 
The Free Spirit 
When Sienna's boyfriend proposes—in front of her mom and sisters, for crying out loud—he takes her by surprise. She already has two broken engagements under her belt. Should she say "I do" even if she's not sure she does? 
Rachel 
The Cynic 
Rachel thought love would last forever…right up until her divorce. As Mom's wedding day draws near and her ex begs for a second chance, she's forced to acknowledge some uncomfortable truths about why her marriage failed, and decide if she'll let pride stand in the way of her own happily-ever-after."

Review:


Although this is a book encompassing all three sisters, only one of the sisters gets the fullest happily ever after (descriptive sex). The other two sisters get a varying degree of HEA.  Yes they all get the guy, but their stories aren’t as fully realized as Courtney’s is.  Their stories are as interesting, but not as gripping since Sienna and Rachel don’t have the familial issues as Courtney does.



Yes this is a book about secrets –and a second time bride who in my opinion, was a bridezilla.  The secrets make this a frustrating read and the slow start to this book added to that frustration.  I very nearly didn’t give this book enough time to grab me –luckily I did.
