Brides
The much anticipated sequel to Graysen Morgen's bestselling novel, Bridesmaid of Honor.
Britton Prescott is dating the love of her life, Daphne Attwood, after a few tumultuous events that happened to unravel at her sister's wedding reception, seven months earlier.
She's happy with the way things are, but immense pressure from her family and friends to take the next step, nearly sends her back to the single life.
The idea of a long engagement and simple wedding are thrown out the window, as both families take over, rushing Britton and Daphne to the altar in a matter of weeks.

This book achieves stupidity with such a blaze of glory that better novels stand aside in awe.
Britton Prescott is still banging Daphne like sex is going out of style. It's only been a couple of months since the huge puffy explosion that formed the two family weddings they were forced into; apparently those families learned nothing from that experience, because they're keen to force another. Britton - surprisingly and sensibly reluctant - literally has the engagement ring pushed into her hand by a stern father with firm instructions not to come back to the house without a sexy-hot wifyu.
Can anyone else see this going badly? No, this couldn't possibly go badly. Two people who never talk when they could shag, having "dated" for less than six months, told to plan and hold their wedding in less than seven weeks? Superb - totally in character. No, seriously, it's actually in character. It's all right though, we're assured by the author; Britton and Daphne are the loves of each other's lives. (I was glad of the clarification to be honest, because I was worried there for a minute.) All this not talking and random jealousy and other stuff is just... you know, wedding jitters. It's fine, really. Look at the lack of strippers! Clearly true love.
The verdict? It had many of the same problems as the first; clunky writing, strange emotional whiplash moments. Overall it was slightly less charming than the original, alas, but still a lot of fun. The author, Graysen Morgan, really sells the reader how terrible having a society wedding would be. Especially because Britton has just started up her own architectural company. The Prescott family are like sharks, constantly circling, waiting for an opening to strike (with matching gold invitations to three hundred people and white and blue flower garlands).
Bizarre things abound. The food, again, is described like the author imagined each dish as she writhed across silk sheets. Everyone drinks then drives. The mothers get irrationally angry even through this has no bearing on the outcome of the huge society wedding in the slightest.
So good. So dumb. Why did I like this?
Three stars.

2.5 stars. Despite it's longer length when compared to the first book there's not a lot of actual content in it. The same things keep repeating over and over again so even though I do like these characters, I can't give it a higher rating.

Part 2 of 3 - really enjoyed this but quite how they put up with the parents from hell I'm not really sure. Looking forward to more in part 3....

3.75 stars. I found this one to be a lot better than the first in the series, with the character arcs stronger and it was easier to believe in their relationship.

Nice continuation of the Bridal Series. The supporting cast is decent. Britton still needs to grow up a bit.

Adorable!
Oh my, it's getting better and better. A marriage is not everyone's cup of tea. Sharon is a woman you can't avoid. She is the centrepiece of the Prescott family and meddles with everyone's life. It's awesome to see how she interferes with the wedding preparations. Everyone wants a piece of the cake and the pressure is very high. A breakdown is inevitable. This is the second one from the series and it is just as the first one an excellent, heartwarming and humorous story.

I liked the first one better and that's why it took longer to finish this one. I wasn't "gripped", if you know what i mean. I was also a little irritated by Britton's whining to be honest. I'll still probably read the 3rd installment though.

What an adorable! I hope there will be a third book. The characters were very sweet. Very well done! Good job!

Great read!
Just finished the second book of this series and loved it, even if a little shorter. Will get to the third story in a bit. Can't wait!
