'Will you... pretend to marry me?'
Bonnie Haskett loves everything about weddings. She loves her job at a national bridal magazine and even has a deposit down on her dream dress. The only problem? She doesn't have a fiancé!
So when Bonnie is sent to Edelweiss Island, known as 'The Little Wedding Island', it's a dream come true. She's heard the rumours, every wedding that takes place in the tiny chapel ends in a happy-ever-after.
But there's a catch! Investigating the story, Bonnie needs to pose as a blushing bride - and the only man up for posing as her groom is her arch rival (and far too handsome for his own good) journalist Rohan Carter...
A gorgeously uplifting summer romance. Perfect for fans of Holly Martin and Caroline Roberts.

Oh, it's lovely to be reading another book by Jaimie Admans again! I absolutely adored her first novel (it definitely was one of my favourites of 2017!) and I was so, so excited to read this one because I just knew it wasn't going to disappoint! And I was right! I loved every page of this novel and I'm so happy I got a chance to read this story. I absolutely love the cover of this book! The pink sky is sooo pretty and I love the lake, church and the pink flowers too! This is definitely a cover that stands out for me - and I love it!
Now, the story itself follows main character Bonnie on her quest to find out more about The Little Wedding Island, a little island just off of England. She wants to find out if the rumours are true and if every marriage here ends in a happy-ever-after, and seeing as Bonnie works for a bridal magazine, she seems like the perfect person for the job ... However, when she arrives on the island (after spending an enjoyable boat ride with a handsome guy), she soon finds out that the locals are more than a little bit secretive about all things to do with weddings on their island, and that the hottie on the boat was someone who she was least expecting.
Bonnie soon finds out that the nice guy from the boat is also the reason why she is stuck researching this island on the first place! Annoyed with him (Rohan) for being Mr Not-So-Nice-Guy and at herself for falling for his charms, Bonnie soon heads to bed wondering what she is doing with her life. After spending the night in the only B&B on the island, Bonnie sets out early keen to make a start on her report on the island where no one divorces but is quickly shown that she is not welcome - I mean if someone shut the door in my face, I'd know I wasn't welcome either! However, Bonnie isn't going to let it stop her, and is soon trying to hatch a plan with arch-rival Rohan (or R.C. Art from Twitter (!!!!)) to find out a way of getting the information they require. Will this end in disaster? Or will Bonnie finally get her Happily Ever After?
This book is full of giggles and is so lighthearted and enjoyable, I couldn't put it down. Every page was fantastic and I loved it. I loved main character Bonnie - I thought she was really down to earth and she reminded me of myself! And I really liked the character of Rohan, he seemed like such a sweet guy that was unfortunately hurt before - hence why he is so cynical! I was so intrigued about the mystery of why the locals on the island are so secretive and couldn't wait to find out why. It will leave you wanting more.
Overall, another brilliantly written novel by Jaimie Admans. I can't wait to read more by her in the future.

Jaimie is a 32 year old English-sounding Welsh girl with an awkward-to-spell name. She lives in South Wales and enjoys writing, gardening, watching horror movies, and drinking tea, although she's seriously considering marrying her coffee machine. She loves autumn and winter, and singing songs from musicals despite the fact she's got the voice of a dying hyena. She hates spiders, hot weather, and cheese & onion crisps. She spends far too much time on Twitter and owns too many pairs of boots. She will never have time to read all the books she wants to read.
She is the author of chick-lit comedies The Chateau of Happily Ever Afters, The Little Wedding Island and Kismetology, and she has also written young-adult romantic comedies Afterlife Academy, Not Pretty Enough, and North Pole Reform School.
