Publisher's summary

A fake diamond, a cloudy emerald, six unworn wedding dresses hanging in the closet. A bunch of Mr. Almost Rights. But only one true love.

Consensus: Reviews are consistent; this book is unputdownable!

Two weeks before her wedding, a tragedy takes place and Leslie Westcott becomes a single woman once again. The pain of it all is palpable and the need to move forward in life takes time. But over the next few years, Leslie has no problem meeting Mr. Almost Right and accepting their proposals. After all, with the loss of her one true love, no one would ever fill that void. Leslie must change what she wants with each new relationship, but what about love?

Fortunately, the thought of settling for less stops her, always in the nick of time. Though the end result is a closet full of unworn wedding dresses and an aunt who owns a bridal shop and decides to have a charity auction to benefit a local women’s shelter. Join Leslie as she relives each voyage to love and decides which dresses she is ready to cast away. And what about her true love? Has he been there all along, and her engagement rings have sparkled too brightly to see him just beyond?

Maybe the love of her life has been there all along—she’ll have to look past the sparkle of her engagement rings and into the heart and soul of a good friend.

More to come.

Sweet Book

Leslie Westcott has the worst luck in love and this story covers many proposals and many dressess and the story behind them. I loved this story and really enjoyed all the wedding dressess and the stories behind them. Enjoyable and sweet read. I did not enjoy the narration and had to switch to the kindle book as the narrator was ruining the story for me.

Two of my favorites!

Mary’s words and Gildart’s narration—a wonderful combination. I had the pleasure of reading Silver Linings before it was published. Such a good story and a much needed escape. Thank you, Mary!

Timeless and Stunning! I LOVED this story!

When tragedy robbed Leslie Westcott of the future she’d planned, her closet gained an unworn wedding gown. Every time Leslie tried to move forward, fate intervened … her closet gained another gown … At times humorous, at times heartbreaking, “The Silver Linings Wedding Dress Auction” is the story of HOW those wedding gowns came to be … unused as Leslie took on fate! Filled with heartbreak, heartache, humor, and hope “The Silver Linings Wedding Dress Auction” is PLATINUM PERFECTION! I was riveted! Each dress has its own fully developed, smooth flowing story. The “stories” beautifully weave together into an emotional, engaging and engrossing “whole” that held me fascinated from beginning to end! I felt every emotion one could feel as I listened to this perfectly written, perfectly balanced, perfect in every way audio! I had deep feelings for what Leslie was going through; times when I cried with her as I felt her pain, and times where my fists were clenched in anger as I felt her completely justified rage! I laughed, at times outrageously so, with tears streaming down my face! In addition to Leslie, there is a full cast of supporting characters, all clearly defined, unique and very human! I loved how ALL the characters evolved WITH the story. There were quite a few that I felt one way about, and then as THEIR story played out, I had a complete change of heart brought on by character evolution and circumstance, exactly as the author intended! I’ll not say how I felt about whom, that would be playing spoiler, and we can’t have that, but trust me, they are so well defined and developed that you’ll have no trouble making up YOUR mind about each and every one! The narration bringing the author’s vision to life is clear, emotional, perfectly timed and truly spectacular, making this beautiful story a listening pleasure! I loved everything about this one, and I want to listen to it all over again. Five stunning stars!
