Synopsis:
“Vanessa Bennett is living in a real-life fairytale. Now that she’s engaged to the man of her dreams, The Palace Staff is consumed with wedding preparation. The upcoming event is no small affair, as Vanessa is bombarded with hundreds of decisions she needs to make before the wedding date arrives. Amidst the endless details concerning dresses, decorations and napkins, a greater question looms: is Vanessa truly ready to become Queen? As tensions rise within Tarsurella, the role of joining her betrothed in governing an ever-shifting nation is no small task. Will she crack under the pressure? Meanwhile, Jane Akerly is hoping to awaken from a nightmare. Her father has been missing for months. Advised to accept the harsh reality that he may never return, Jane isn’t ready to give up. She finds comfort in the one place she’s always run to for escape–her daydreams. Her imagination has the power to carry her across the ocean, stroll the streets of London, and imagine that all is well. In an unexpected turn of events, Jane is given the opportunity to create the future of her dreams–but will her pen be enough to save her? The Wedding is Book #3 in The Tales of Tarsurella Series.”
My Review:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ & ❤︎❤︎❤︎❤︎❤︎❤︎
5+ stars & 6/10 hearts. What a ride!! This book was intense. The excitement is mounting and the questions are rising thicker than ever about the disappearance of Mr. Akerly, the involvement of Mr. Fletcher, & all the code stuff. I loved the characters as much as ever I did, though I lost patience with most of them at certain places! I’m still shipping Hanson & Chasity (and I want Hanson to be saved SO badly) but I’m worried about Luke, so I’m shipping Hope & David instead. There was a kiss, some hugs, two mentions of being pregnant out of wedlock (not true), a “gosh,” and I didn’t agree with the music & clothing styles. Other than that, it was amazing—I mean, I really, REALLY feel like this is a true country and I’m also so grateful I’m not royalty—the author shows their difficulties SO well. I can’t tell how much I love the characters in this book!! I loved Jane’s storyline & Asher is amazing.... I’m just looking forwards to book four SO BADLY!
A Favourite Quote: “‘Your mind is precious, Hope, just as your heart is, and you know that I’ve poured my whole life into encouraging each of my children to guard their hearts at all costs. I don’t want you dumping toxic poison into your mind. Now I trust you, and I am confident in the young woman God has created you to be. You know who you are in Christ, and you’ve always had a strong Christian character. But even the strongest and purest can be deceived. It only takes a little bit of dirt to contaminate purity.’”
A Favourite Humorous Quote: “‘How. Can. You. Have. This. Many. Books!’ An airy voice was heard huffing and puffing its way up the stairs.... Charlie popped around the corner and his wobbly arms dropped the box of books on the floor. ‘I know all about the enchanting high you get from reading so much fiction, but the next time you want to haul so many novels up two flights of stairs, get a pulley up to the window or something! Aye, that’s actually not such a bad idea… it could be like a dumb-waiter, used to transport heavy objects to the attic.’ Charlie placed a thoughtful hand on his chin and examined the wall closest to him, ‘Hey, Aunt Cassidy, how do you feel about me cutting a hole in the wall?’”
