Daughters of the Bride by Susan Mallery
5.0
First I would just like to say I am a huge fan of almost everything Susan Mallery writes! This book is no different. Daughters of the Bride is a story of the relationship between three sisters and their mother, which can always be complex. Each sister is as different as the next, and they are all battling their past while they try to sort out what will truly make them happy.
Courtney battles her long held securities about her looks and height, and finds that they are playing role in everything she does. She refuses to share her successes with her family because of past failures. When she meets Quinn she starts to realize that these failures could be damaging her relationship with her mother and sisters as well as others.
Sienna feels like the odd sister out most of the time and wonders why she can’t commit to a relationship, she accepts proposal number three when her boyfriend proposes to her in front of her whole family. As she learns to start understanding her sisters and her mother a bit more she realizes that what she wants might have been in front of her the entire time.
Rachel is raising her son alone after a divorce, but soon starts to realize that she might not be alone after all. Her ex-husband, who it turns out she still has feelings for, starts to be around more and more often. She has to decide if she is ready to forgive him and learn to trust again.
This is a moving story that shows that family bonds are the strongest and that learning to love and trust is sometimes the hardest thing to do, but sometimes you have to face your fears if you want to get the ultimate prize.
