You Are Cordially Invited . . .
to your brother's wedding where he will marry rich, famous Marni Shay, at the River Lodge, the most elite resort in Colorado, the state you chose to go to college in so you could escape your family, except they'll all be there. Enjoy ten fun-filled days of avoiding your mother, who still thinks you're not girly enough; planning your brother's bachelor party, because you are his best man, er, girl; and, oh yeah, trying not to drool all over Hot Connor, who happens to be in your English seminar and work at the River Lodge. Put your best foot forward, and . . .
Don't miss the most joyous celebration of the year!
Yeah, right.


Review: The Best Girl by Emma Harrison
I enjoyed reading about all the wedding prep and the strong bond between the main character and her brother. Despite all this, I was very frustrated with the main character. She feels as though she has to change herself to be likeable, and the whole relationship between her and Connor is based on lies. The story is still interesting, though, and I didn’t hate it.
❀ Quick Winter themed read
The Best Girl by Emma Harrison is one to pick up if you are looking for a quick winter themed read. It has an interesting concept and the story is lots of fun.
Glad you found some mostly fun Christmasy reads in spite of the issues they had. And hope you have a great merry Christmas!!

Thank you so much, Greg! 🙂
They all sound like fun . I don’t expect much in cute holiday reads. If I can have fun and like the characters I’m happy. I have a huge pile yet to read. Probably get them finished by this summer. LOL

Exactly! I try to enjoy these kinds of books for what they are as well. 😉
Thanks for sharing – I haven’t seen any of these. Sorry Sock It To Me wasn’t that Christmas-esque for you. I still have some Christmas themed books I hope to read…I’m giving myself all Winter. LOL
