The blurb:
Things don’t always run smoothly in
the game of love…
As her Christmas wedding
approaches, a trip back to snowy England for her ex’s engagement party makes
her wonder if those are wedding bells she’s hearing in her mind, or warning
bells. She longs for the excitement of her old London life – the glamour, the
regular pedicures. Can she really give that all up to be…a fishwife?
There’s nothing for it but to throw
herself into bringing a little Christmas magic to the struggling village in the
form of a Christmas fair. Somewhere in amidst the sparkly bauble cakes and
stollen scones, she’s sure she’ll come to the right decision about where she
belongs…hopefully in time for the wedding…
My Big Fat Christmas Wedding is the
standalone sequel to Game of Thrones, perfect for fans of Lindsey Kelk and
Debbie Johnson. Don’t miss the Christmas Wedding of the year!
My Opinion:
*Book provided by the publisher in
exchange for an honest review*
My
Big Fat Christmas Wedding brings us back
to Pippa and Niko, who we know already from Game
of Scones. It can be read as a standalone, but I would recommend reading
Game of Scones, because it’s the start oft he story and it makes you understand
certain things better.
So, we are in Taxos with Pippa and Niko.
The are enjoying their life there and they are about to get married. A trip to
England changes everything. They are invited to her ex’s engagement party in
London. Pippa is back in London, so close to her old life, she enjoys being
around old work colleagues and in this festive London atmosphere. At the party
Niko feels left alone and in the wrong place. After a heated argument, Niko
rushes back to Greece!
After spending time with Henrik and Olivia
Pippa goes home with their booked flight and finds everything tob e in chaos.
It’s a storm, there are refugees and Niko cannot be found. When he is found and
in hospital, he still wants to cancelt he wedding. They question now was, if
the wedding was still on. For Pippa that time was a journey if figuring out
what she really wants in live and where she will be happy.
I loved how passionate and excited Pippa
was with her new projects. She put all her heart in them and it also opened her
eyes to what she really needs in life.
The atmosphere in Taxos around Chritmas is
great and Niko’s family is just adorable. There were many wonderful moments in
this book and I think it transports a great message.
