A hot trend is billionaire romances but who actually does all the work for a
high profile wedding? An elite business of course. And author Lauren Layne has a
new series coming up that pulls back the curtain to look at the love lives of
the women (and men) behind the scenes in the wedding business. Meet the "Wedding
Belles."
Our reviewer, Sharon Salituro, introduces us to the prequel for the new
series. FROM THIS DAY
FORWARD has a pair of photographers walking around the question of second
chances.
Leah McHale was a wedding photographer and loved her job. One of her
good friends is Alexis, a wedding planner, whose company is
called Wedding Belles, and so the connection to the series, "Wedding Belles."
Alexis is about to do one of her
biggest weddings, planning the wedding of the former president's daughter, and
needs Leah to photograph it. However, Leah will
not be the only photographer there since it's such a big and important event.
Enter Jason Rhodes. Leah and Jason was once an item, however, it ended
badly. As much as Leah wants to do this, she doesn't know if she can work with
him. Jason had tried to make things right with Leah in the past, but she
would have no part of it. Maybe this wedding will do the trick.
FROM THIS DAY FORWARD is a delightful book. Now I can't wait for the other ones
in this series by Lauren Layne. Right now I am planning my niece's wedding. So I
really got into this story line. Lauren Layne hit it right on the nose on what
goes on behind the scenes.
I found myself writing done some of the things that could go wrong at a wedding.
Hopefully I wouldn't come across any of this. Lauren Layne writes the story with
making everything come together. It turns out to beautiful wedding. Along with
this Lauren does show the back side of a relationship. Sometimes things are not
what they seem. Can Jason and Leah see wedding bells in their future? We can
only hope and wait for the next book in the "Wedding Belles" series. FROM THIS
DAY FORWARD was a great kick-off to the series.

Wedding Belles
prequel
Sex and the City meets The Wedding Planner in this prequel to
USA TODAY bestselling author Lauren Layne’s The Wedding Belles series
about three high-powered New York City women who can plan any wedding—but their
own.
Up-and-coming wedding photographer Leah McHale’s career is on the rise–thanks
in no small part to the Wedding Belles, the elite New York wedding planning
agency that always throws top-tier business Leah’s way. So when one of the
Belles asks Leah to fill in at the former First Daughter's wedding, Leah is
overjoyed to say yes–until she finds out who she’ll be working with.
Jason Rhodes is the one man who was able to capture Leah’s heart and, once he
had it, promptly stepped all over it and left her broken. Now he’s working
side-by-side with her at the biggest wedding of the season and Leah is
determined to give him the cold shoulder. Despite his persistence, she is
not going to fall for his charming, impish ways again. Not even if he
still has that killer, irresistible smile...
