About this ebook
"Birchall manages to design a cheer squad of fully supportive chums and a sexy, sensitive love interest in this witty, relatable tale that doesn’t fall prey to the trite rom-com formula you may be expecting." ––USA Today
FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL meets THE WEDDING PARTY...
Freya Scott is getting married. Her wedding to Matthew, her long-term boyfriend, is the first of eight in her calendar this year, and as someone who prides herself on being meticulously organized, Freya is intent on making it the perfect day to remember.
But when Matthew calls things off hours before they walk down the aisle, Freya’s entire life plan goes up in smoke. Humiliated and heartbroken, the last thing she wants is to attend a summer of other peoples’ nuptials on her own.
Fortunately, her friends have an idea: together they devise a series of outrageous challenges for Freya to complete at each event, designed to distract her from Matthew and what might have been. From getting stuck in an old church bathroom and needing to be rescued by the vicar to making out with a barman at a French chateau, Freya realizes that despite herself, she might just be having fun.
By the time the final wedding arrives, she will discover that the road to a happy ending sometimes has unexpected detours, that “I do” is only the beginning––and that perhaps her own love story isn’t over just yet.

I was absolutely charmed by Freya. Getting dumped hours before the wedding by her boyfriend of more than a decade was just the start of Freya's journey. Everyone should have best friends like Leo and Ruby. Their plan to navigate the wedding season was fabulous. The book made me laugh out loud so many times. It really was a fun journey and the ending was pretty perfect and so hopeful that Freya gets her happy ending. I pretty much read this in one sitting, not putting the book down unless I had to. This book has absolutely made me a fan of Katy Birchall! I received an advance copy from NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving a review.
