review 1: This book was a nice ending to the trilogy. While I didn't like it as much as the first book in the series, I definitely enjoyed it more than the first. I had to set aside my disbelief quite a few times in this book, as you would expect for any of these types of contemporary romance novels, but there were a few parts that were just SO ridiculous.For example, at one point in the book Josie goes on about how she was raised to be self-sufficient and she doesn't want to be someone else's burden, which is why she decides she needs to get a job so she can pay her rent... (makes sense so far) ..until she gets married. (Now she's lost me...) Apparently once you're actually married to a hard-working rich guy, it's okay to not be self-sufficient anymore. Then, it gets even better j... moreust a few pages later when Josie tags along with her rich and famous fiance to Bali where he's filming a movie. How can she afford this trip if she can't even pay her rent?? Apparently being self-sufficient only applies to the necessities in life, like food and shelter. If someone will pay for you to go on vacation for 3 weeks, then it's totally cool to be a mooch and expect them to pay your way..?!However - setting all of this aside, I still read this book like a guilty pleasure. I think I had a love-hate relationship with it, but either way, I still enjoyed it.
review 2: could not wait to read this book from previous 2.I enjoyed this more compare to the 2nd, touched on some issues... wedding planning... long distances relationship I totally understand. good on josie sticking her ground for her career dreams! I just love Mattie the character, so hilarious, he's like the gay best friend every girl should have.very entertaining light read for the afternoon with cuppa tea & cookies. less

If you can get past the grammar and editing sloppiness, it was a cute story. I enjoyed this series.
