ABOUT THIS BOOK Welcome to Mistletoe Island, where dreams can come true... The snow is falling and Fliss's friends have arrived to celebrate her wedding for a week at Holly Cottage. It's the perfect way to kick off her brand-new life, isn't it? Except Ruth wishes she was anywhere other than a remote Scottish island, Caitlin is keeping a secret from her friends, Lara is suddenly facing her ex a decade after turning down his proposal and even the bride has something to hide... But as the friends prepare for a week to remember, will Fliss's dream wedding go off without a hitch, or will the secrets they've been hiding change everything? MY REVIEW THE WEDDING ON MISTLETOE ISLAND by Sophie Pembroke is an excellent story about being true to oneself and the ever-changing nature of friendship and feelings, and I could not put this book down, it was that compelling. Ten years ago Fliss gathered her close group of University friends together at Holly Cottage which has always meant so much to her. This was their final time together before they entered adulthood and life started to take them in different directions but when a proposal got turned down and hearts got broken, the group dynamic was altered forever. Now, ten years later, Fliss has finally found her prince and is getting married, and her close friends are gathering together once more at Holly Cottage, but this time for her wedding. But it isn't long before the tensions of the past rise to the surface again and shocking secrets come bubbling out. As each of the group tries to deal with their own personal dramas and emotional upheavals, hearts will be bruised, old truths will be faced head-on, and friendships will be broken, but maybe they will each find out who they really are and face the truth about what they want for the future. I absolutely loved this book and this quirky group of friends who are so close but also hide so much of who they really are and what they really want from each other at the same time. Fliss is the nice one of the group - the one who looks after everyone and the one they feel they have to protect but they do not know the other side of Fliss, only one person knows the real her. Caitlin and Noel have always been the mum and dad of the group but it isn't long before everyone starts to notice the cracks beginning to show. Alec and Ruth are struggling with a very personal loss and this wedding trip is the last thing Ruth wants when she has always felt like an outsider but maybe this island can heal them a little and help them find their way back to each other. Ten years ago, Lara and Jon's lives went in opposite directions but how will they handle being back in each other's personal space and the fact that they still seem to have a connection? And then there is Harry, the messer of the group. But maybe Harry knows and understands more than they could possibly imagine. Throw in some interfering mothers and the wedding preparations from hell and this story is set to keep you hooked from beginning to end. THE WEDDING ON MISTLETOE ISLAND by Sophie Pembroke is a compelling story about friendship and love and I highly recommend it to all womens fiction fans as well as fans of Christmas novels.
