"Rebecca Bloomwood has the dream job. She's a personal shopper, so is able to spend other people's money all day instead of her own. And she gets paid for doing it. The perfect job, the perfect man - gorgeous Luke Brandon - and now... the perfect wedding. Yes, Luke has proposed and wedding bells are in sight. No excuses are needed to start the shopping trip of all time. And Becky's parents are just assuming that the wedding will be at home - a marquee in the garden and Becky in her mum's wedding dress, which she's been saving specially for the occasion. But Luke's mother has very different ideas - a huge affair in New York in a forest glade setting - or perhaps a Venetian Ball, or a fin de siecle extravagance? Now Becky's getting confused. She doesn't want to say 'no' to anyone. The plans are going ahead, and soon it will be too late to turn back - from either wedding..." (From Amazon)
I am happy that Kinsella did not drag out the "romance" and let them marry. Now at least Becky will always have Luke to pay her debts. An okay series.

Another great book in this series! Becky has two wedding being planned at the same time - one in Manhattan and one in England - and on the same day! Reading about her working through these problems is hysterical. A funny and light read!

I am very disappointed with this book. I am not sure i want to continue the series. Becky for me was very endearing, annoying but endearing in this book, she lost every good quality about her. She became even more cowardly, and the lies, oh God! The fact that she can't be honest about ANYTHING, I mean she became so gutless. And what pisses me off even more is that she never resolves anything, by the end of each book, especially this one she just covers things up, and lies and lies. I done with this series seriously over Sophie's books.

I'm starting to get infuriated with Becky. All these messes she's in? It would just be so easy to fix if she just gets her head out of her ass and stop lying to people, trying to please everyone. Spineless little shit.
Not sure if I should continue with this series if she still is having a problem with her lying and people-pleasing attitude.
