Publisher's Summary

Meet Patrick Cooper - desperately down on his luck and head-over-heels in unrequited love with his best friend, Bridget.

Meet Bridget's sister, Emma Donovan - eternally single maker-of-cakes for many a happy couple, whilst never making it down the aisle herself.

Emma has four younger sisters, all of whom are married or getting married, and an Italian mother who can’t understand what is ‘wrong’ with her eldest daughter, who seems to be stranded on the shelf. Despairing of her own ability to find a suitable husband, Emma agrees to be part of a compatibility project to get married at first sight.

Meanwhile Cooper is struggling to get over his crush on Bridget and seems destined to stay firmly on the shelf too. Perhaps it’s time his fate was taken out of his hands....

Is happily-ever-after just about daring to take a chance, or do you need some extra magic to make love last?

Join Beth Moran, Cooper and the Donovan sisters on this life-affirming and uplifting tale of love, family, friendship and risking it all for happiness.

Ok

Nice idea - story told from two points of view, but it didn't really stick to their points of view. Too many characters with big stories that distracted from the main story

Great read

Loved the storyline and narration. However, Beth’s Christmas themed books take a lot to beat

Lovely but just not me

If you want escapism and romance? Tick.
If you want cheesy with a slice of religious morales? Tick
Easy to listen to and I am sure many will enjoy.

Really enjoyed the story. Took me a bit of time to get used to the voice as the narrator sounds like someone I know lol.

Lovely Story

Beautiful story about a loving family. It has you changing your mind multiple times how you want it to end and doesn’t disappoint. Narration was perfect.
