Review: The Secret Bridesmaid

The Secret Bridesmaid The Secret Bridesmaid by Katy Birchall
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sophie Breeze makes her living as a professional bridesmaid, one who will help you choose your dress, organise the flowers, placate family, hire portaloos etc. She pretends to be a friend of the bride and just makes sure her special day is perfect from start to finish.

When she gets asked by Lady Meade to be a secret bridesmaid for the society wedding of the year Sophie is thrilled, this could be the boost her business needs. But the bride-to-be is surly, rude and wants to fire Sophie as soon as she meets her. This could be her most challenging wedding yet.

This had a bit of a Katie Fforde vibe, but maybe for a younger demographic (I love Katie Fforde). The aristocratic family, the practical jokes, the fancy dinners.

I absolutely devoured this in less than one day. It was cute, charming, it had lovable characters and zany situations. I also loved the comic element of the interactions between Sophie and her different brides.

If a rom-com featuring a professional bridesmaid who will do anything for her bride-to-be (including asking the Queen for a priceless tiara) then I think you'll adore this charming novel.

I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
