Publisher's summary

Bella Rossi's life is nearing perfection. She's got the perfect guy, she's running a successful business, and she's about to plan her most ambitious wedding yet - a Renaissance-themed fairy tale come true, complete with period costumes and foods, horse-drawn carriages, and even a castle. There's just one hitch. The best man just happens to be Brock Benson, Hollywood's hottest and most eligible bachelor. Oh, and did we mention he's staying at the Rossi house to avoid the paparazzi?

With all the pressure surrounding this wedding, Bella's not sure she's going to make it through. Add her starstruck sister, her feuding aunt and uncle, and a trio of large, sequined church ladies with even bigger personalities, and you've got a recipe for disaster and a lot of laughs. This hilarious romantic comedy is sure to delight both fans and new listeners alike.

Love the book but not the narrator

I loved these books, the whole series and spin-off series' as well. I have them on my Kindle so when I saw them for Audible I jumped at the chance to listen them. The first book was narrated okay. She did make Bella's Mom sound more Irish than Italian but at least she did the accents This narrator, she used the Italian accent a bit too hard for Bella's Mom but not really anyone else. The worst was Sofia, Bella's sister. She made her voice high pitched and whiney that it was difficult to listen to. Like nails on a chalk board. I listened to it because of the book/story and wanting to complete it but not for the narrator. Unfortunately she did not do the book justice and I'm disappointed that the next books are not available on Audible yet. I really wanted to hear the rest.

Get the first book on Audible, read the second one

Get the first book on Audible, read the second one on Amazon.
I loved listening to the first book, Bella and her family sounded Italian. D.J and his family and Jenna sounded like they were Texan with the drawl and everything. This is NOT the case with this book. the Narrator is different and she does not even bother with the Texas drawl or sounding Italian. She sounds like her nose is stuffed up. I'm disappointing in the narrating of this book. Even if you had to get use someone else at least they could have done the story justice.

Book great…a hard listen.

The narrator in this book would be be spectacular at children’s books. Not this book.

The story is great, I’ve read it.

Don’t forget to sample the book. I normally do but not this time 🫠

She's done it again!

Another romantic tale full of love, fun, and memorable characters. Preferred narrator in book one.

A Warm-hearted Family Love Story

Ii enjoyed this follow up to" Fools Rush In " a great deal. The characters are fun and engaging and you soon feel you are part of the family. The narrator was different from the first story but did a fairly good preformance . Sofia's vouce was a little too high pitched to enjoy but the others were done well.
I recieved this in return for an honest review.
Great for all ages and apprecuate the moral integrity of the writer and her stories.
