A second chance for forever?

Ten years ago Maeve would have given anything to be standing side-by-side with Lando Nancarrow, she in a flowing white bridal gown and he in a sharp tux that emphasized just how handsome he is. But after one unforgettable night at her beloved Cornish beach hut, Lando disappeared and Maeve was left alone… until the surprise arrival of their daughter months later.

Now, with Lando’s return, Maeve finds the dream she’d long given up on coming true as she’s talked into posing as the ideal bride to Lando’s dashing groom in a campaign to promote her new beach hut weddings venture. With their undeniable chemistry evident in every single look of love for the camera, is it possible that a true ‘I do’ could finally be on the horizon for Maeve and Lando?

Ooh not only is this a new St Aiden novel, but it also features heavily The Little Wedding Shop by the Sea, and as a massive fan of all of these books, I was utterly delighted to see Jess, Poppy and Sera again, as well as mentions of characters from many other books of this series. 

As a Jane Linfoot fan all of this pleased me a great deal before I even got too far into this latest totally standalone novel. 

I loved Maeve and Lando's story,  both hearing about them from 10 years previous, and also getting to know them now as fully grown adults. 

Maeve was a daughter, Nemmie as a result of one night with Lando 10 years ago, the night before he went off on an adventure with her brother, and she hadn't seen him since.  So Lando is unaware that he is a father. 

As fates would have it, they literally run into each other in a fun meet cute style situation and then are thrown together a lot over the summer, will both of them fighting all manner of emotions towards each other. 

Add in the newest wedding venue in town a lot of different brides and situations, plus the fact that Nemmie and the other kids her age in the complex family set up that Maeve has, being totally wonderful, and incredibly clever and determined and you have all the elements of a fabulous book. 

Add in some humour with some wedding dress mishaps, and a couple of large dogs too and this is an absolute joy to read. 

Thank you to One More Chapter and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
