Tilly has arrived in France. She is staying for the requisite two weeks before her wedding
to Luke, an event she is not looking forward to. She realises that he is not the love of her
life but that to keep everyone happy and with so many arrangements and friends and
family travelling over, its best to go along with it and maybe, just maybe things will
change. We learn of her extended family, the friends around the village and the
nightmare of a mother in law to be. When she literally bumps into someone she
met a while ago and at the time felt a connection to, her resolve is truly tested.
She wants to make the most of the time she has whilst still being honest with Joe.
She can’t quite bring herself to tell him that she is getting married in a few days
time but steels herself to do so as it is the only fair thing to do. She hasn’t done
anything wrong but will Joe see it that way and can Tilly go through with the
marriage if only for the sake of everyone but herself? Ooh! Be still my beating
heart. I so felt for Tilly and understood Joe and his position in all of this. Of
how arrangements catch everyone up without always thinking of the end
result. This is a beautifully described book both for scenery, characters and
of course the plot line. I’m sure many women will recognise the wedding
plans -sweeping feeling and how being caught in a web, however much
you struggle, you just get more tangled. Kadima- forward- something
maybe we all should do a little more instead of looking over our shoulders
all the time. A wonderful uplifting read- perfect for the summer.

Tilly blurbHow many people out there say ‘I do’ for the wrong reasons?
Matilda Parker is flying to France for what should be the wedding of her dreams but soon discovers she is about to star in her own private nightmare.
Freda has spent a year planning her daughter’s perfect wedding and nothing is going to ruin it. Not even a house full of relatives, the imminent arrival of her feckless son-in-law-to-be or his irritating parent’s will be allowed to spoil it.
On the other side of the village, Anna has problems of her own. She loves Daniel with all her heart. With all her family about to descend, including her precious sons Joe and Sam, Anna has vowed that nothing will ruin their much awaited summer holiday.
Beneath a sweltering summer sun, two clans, a naughty dog, a gaggle of relatives and friends gather in the Loire. But when a visitor from hell pays a surprise visit and Joe bumps into Tilly, it looks like all of Anna and Freda’s plans are about to go up in smoke…
