Love tangle
Juliet is determined to move up in the world - by marrying a doctor and having a big wedding. But she certainly doesn't take love too seriously.
Tessa, her cousin, is a free-spirit who thinks marriage is a joke, but secretly craves love.
Between them is Brendan, a young surgeon, who is becoming aware of the complexities of love and attraction, and the difficulties of wedded bliss.
But for all three, finding true love becomes a serious business.

This book was better the more I read! It was a nice read, and didn’t get boring as the plot was neatly compact and follows the lives of more than one protagonist
