A WEDDING ON PRIMROSE STREET is book seven in the Life In Icicle Falls
series. Whenever I start a Sheila Roberts book I know that I won't be able to stop
until the very last page. A WEDDING ON PRIMROSE STREET is no
exception. I love the Life In Icicle Falls series, and with every story it's
like
going home and visiting with old friends.
A WEDDING ON PRIMROSE STREET is all about daughters and mothers
and how they always agree and disagree. Anne is a wedding planner, a
job she has been doing for years and she is very good at it. That is until
she tries to plan her daughter Laney's wedding. Somehow Anne has
turned in to Momzilla. She is just trying to make the day a special event
that Laney will never forget, but her daughter has other ideas. She wants to
run away to Las Vegas and tie the knot!
Roberta is the owner of a beautiful Victorian, Primrose Haus, in Icicle Falls
and has been hosting events there for over thirty years. Her
grown daughter, Daphne, is understandably bitter about weddings. She is
about to be divorced for the third time. The two have a strained
relationship which heats up when Daphne moves home to help her mom in
the family business. At first, I wanted to slap Daphne with the way she
treated her mom. Roberts is only trying to help her and Daphne doesn't
appreciate her at all.
A WEDDING ON PRIMROSE STREET is filled to the brim with family, new
beginnings, love and hope. A heart tugging and wonderful tale in Icicle
Falls, and I loved it. This romance makes you believe in happily ever after
and all that people can do if enough prayers are made. The conflicts
between mothers and daughters is so well written and very easy to relate
to. Sheila Roberts has a real gift of making all of her characters so
relatable and real to the reader. The positive female friendships make you
want to go out and make some new best friends. As always, another
wonderful story from Sheila Roberts! This tale should become a delightful
Hallmark movie very soon!
The joy, the fun, the memories—the stress. As a wedding planner, Anne Richardson has seen mothers of the bride turn into Momzillas, and she's determined not to do that when it's her daughter's turn to get married. But once Laney gets engaged, all bets are off. Anne becomes obsessed with giving Laney the perfect wedding she herself never had. And that wedding needs to be held in Icicle Falls at Primrose Haus, the perfect setting.
Roberta Gilbert, owner of Primrose Haus, has been hosting events at her charming Victorian for thirty years. She's an expert on weddings, but not on mother-daughter relations. When her daughter, Daphne, comes home and decides to help with the business, the receptions become truly memorable—and not in a good way. Then there's the added complication of Roberta's gardener, who seems more interested in Daphne than he is in planting primroses…
Tying the knot is a business that has everyone tied up in knots!
