Bella Osborne is a talented storyteller and her novels, a mix of rom-com and women’s fiction, are never banal or her plots predictable.
This is another compelling and entertaining novel that talks about friendship and romance but it’s also the story of how a woman learned to become assertive.
Ella is an interesting character: she could be defined very sweet but I would defined her a natural born victim. Her horrible boss, Wanda, is treating her like a mop, her former fiancé was a nightmare, a lot of people who’s being simply cruel.
Her path to becoming her own woman is interesting and not easy but it’s also the path to become a happy person who also find love.
It’s a story of friendship, of ordinary people finding happiness, of a very interesting cat.
I laughed at the antics of the bridezille, I loved the Ella’s seamstress skills. I rooted for her and her friends.
A compelling, entertaining, and poignant story that made me smile. It can be read as a rom-com or as the story of woman and how she became stronger and happier.
I strongly recommend it as it’s a perfect summer read.
