About this ebook

Four weddings and a baby are on their way to Five Island Cove!

Eloise has been waiting for her dream wedding for months. When the Cove Chronicles calls it "the wedding of the year" and literally the whole town is invited, she wants everything to be perfect. 

Burst pipes don't make for perfect wedding dresses, though.

Laurel Baker has just been promoted to detective in the narcotics unit, and her first case is one that's gone unsolved for a year now. She's desperate to find out who's bringing drugs into the cove, but each clue she uncovers leads to one of the women she's grown to love.

She has to juggle her friendship with Alice, who's started a new relationship with her children's guidance counselor. And Kelli, who finds herself with a new boyfriend...who happens to live right next door to her.

Laurel doesn't want to hurt AJ, who is off her pregnancy bed-rest now, but her new challenge is meeting her fiancé's grown children–and the reception isn't all rainbows and sunshine. AJ's determined to go through with the wedding, even if not everyone is thrilled it's happening.

Laurel can always rely on Robin, as she's planning Laurel's end-of-summer wedding. But Robin's busier than ever as she's taken on dozens of clients to pay for her husband's new fishing boat and Duke is off to Alaska again. Kristen is usually there to pick up any pieces that fall, but this summer finds her moving into a new house for the first time in fifty years.

When Laurel finally uncovers the truth, fingers are pointed in every direction, friendships are threatened, and romantic relationships strained. And who will be the ones standing at the altar for that fourth wedding? 

Join Alice, AJ, Kelli, Robin, Kristen, Eloise, and Laurel as they learn how strong they really are, and the great power they hold as women, and as friends, in any circumstance.

Ratings and reviews

This is book 6 in a series. I had not read the other books so it was harder for me to keep track of all the characters. There are 6 main characters and the men in their lives as well as their children so it’s a lot to follow. Having said that, I enjoyed the storyline and characters which were believable. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Besides romance there´s a whole lot of action in this story and the main role belongs to the newest addition to the group - she is able to disable the drug ring that is being formed in the islands, and she brings hell to herself and her friends. There are babies, many weddings, engagements, people moving along with their lives as it is meant to be. The characters and story are very relatable and written in a very interesting way. Entertaining and easy to read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Wow there is lots going on in this book so make sure you get really comfy as you won't be putting this book down until the end! Robin is getting run off her feet with weddings to plan including some for her group of friends and with one wedding it is really going to push her to her planning limits, while the weddings are being planned and happening Laurel has a new job and things look like it is going to splinter the friendships she has been making with the women. Then we have AJ and her struggles with not only her permanency but meeting Matt's adult kids and big changes for Kirsten and more changes for all of them. You will laugh, cry, want to high five someone as well as worry, get frustrated, want to give each and every one of the women the biggest hug and be shocked by some of the twist and surprises. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
