Always a Bridesmaid

by Traci Hall

Cynical single gal Larissa has been to too many weddings. Nonetheless, when her friend Malena asks her to be a bridesmaid, she’s a good sport, despite the floor-length aqua satin nightmare she’s made to wear.

Larissa has given up on the idea of ever walking down the aisle herself. These days, her idea of a perfect Saturday night is more likely to involve wine and on-demand movies than high heels and a push-up bra.

Enter Mark, the bride’s sexy single brother who sees something special in Larissa. Mark, the one man who has Larissa considering breaking her “no wedding hookups” rule. But will they share a night of fun or something more? With plenty of champagne and the blissful romance of a wedding, true love might just blossom.

At first I thought this short story might be some kind of tie-in to the rom com, "The Wedding Confession." Both involve a veterinarian who lives in a different city semi-hooking up with an office worker at a wedding where the FMC is a snarky bridesmaid wearing a hideous dress. But, no, different authors, different character names. I liked the beginning of this one but the immediate transformation from meet-cute to "we're soul mates I want a serious relationship with you" was just too much.

Review

How to fall in love at a wedding must have tingling all over, same taste in beer not necessary, don’t have to live in same town and one of you have to truly believe in love forever.
For a short book it has all the right ingredients and was witty.
Enjoy

Always a Bridesmaid

Always a Bridesmaid was a fun and enjoyable read, making it a great choice to close out my reading year. Light, charming, and easy to get into, it delivered exactly what I was looking for in a feel-good romance. A satisfying last book of the year!

Fast read.

Really fast read. Less than an hour. Really want to see where this couple end up. Take the chance and enjoy the read.

Short story about two people who meet at a wedding (bridesmaid and brother of the bride). Will it be a quick hookup or something more?

[Piper Brintnall · Rating 2 out of 5]

Nope. Pass on this one. I appreciate it’s a novella but it shouldn’t be. There is no chemistry, character development, or real plot.

Skip it.

A fun short read. This would be a great little novella to read on the beach or even if you just need a break from work.
