The Cornish Confetti Agency by Daisy James


The Cornish Confetti Agency
Daisy James
Rating: 4 stars

The first in a new sun-filled series from the author of the Villa Limoncello trilogy.

Welcome to The Cornish Confetti Agency!

When the grand finale of Lexie Harrington's catwalk show ends with a disastrous twist on the 'ice bucket challenge', she knew her highly-strung boss would fire her on the spot. What she wasn't expecting was to bump into her fiance cosied up with an attractive blonde in the restaurant opposite their apartment!

Desperate to escape her heartbreak, Lexie flees to her childhood home of St Ives to hold the fort at The Cornish Confetti Agency for her best friend Freya, leader of the yummy mummy network and firm believer in 'happily ever afters'. Little did she know that delivering a Caribbean-themed wedding in sunny Cornwall would rival the fashion industry for drama, tantrums and mysterious goings on.

Who is responsible for dousing the bridesmaid's dress with tomato ketchup? Or hiding the bride's beloved Jimmy Choos? Or attaching googly eyes to everything in sight?

The perfect Cornish wedding? Is there such a thing for The Cornish Confetti Agency?

------------------------------------------

I do love a novel by Daisy James. They're full of glitz and glamour and SO. MUCH. DRAMA! I am here for all the drama in her books. They make such fun, easy reads. I particularly loved this one due to it's setting, the characters and the fun storyline. The cover is so pretty and colourful and draws you in, making you want to read it.

The story follows Lexie, who is the main character in this novel. She's just been fired from her job AND found out that her fiance was cheating on her just weeks before their wedding. So, Lexie decides that it's best if she goes down to Cornwall to help out her best friend with her wedding business. She then has to become a fully fledged wedding planner and put together a Caribbean themed wedding, which as you might have guessed, has some mysterious goings on.

I really liked the character of Lexie, she seemed down to earth and had a lovely personality. I also really liked Theo, he seemed so sweet and helpful and they had a beautiful friendship, but you could tell from the way they were with one another that there was something deeper there. The location to the story sounded so glamorous and gals like me could only dream about having a wedding quite like the one that Zara had.

This novel was a fun, easy and lighthearted story that is perfect to while away a few hours, especially with all that is going on in the world right now. I really hope that we read more about these characters! Thank you to Daisy James for a chance to read this novel, which I have reviewed honestly.
