This is such a fun story that follows Sophie, a professional bridesmaid through the wedding world.
I absolutely loved Sophie and watching her interact with all of her brides, some of the things those women put her through were absolutely hilarious. I also loved how much Sophie grew as an individual throughout the book. She really came into herself as a person and recognized her own worth.
At first I absolutely HATED Lady Cordelia, she was literally the worst and just an overall mean person. But as the story moves on, you really get to know and understand her and by the end I wanted to be her friend. I really enjoyed how much the overall theme of this book focused on friendship and how important those friendships are.
Also, Sophie and Tom? Please give me more. I need a sequel with them like yesterday.
