I enjoyed this book. It seemed a little short, and the last couple of pages took the story a little too far, but on the whole it was an enjoyable read. I didn’t realise it was part of a series, I’d look out for the rest of them. Thank you for accepting my request.

It was very very sugar-y sweet. Almost too much. Plus i adored Danny and Mary The Rabbit.
Very quick and easy read.

I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. I could not get into this book, although I tried a few times.

Lilac Mills does it again! Blooming love her books. So easy to read and so much love on the characters. I love how the old characters still get to play a part in this book and the new ones. I want a james for myself!

Really not me. I tried to get on with it but struggled to get into it put it down and never returned to it. I don’t think I clicked with the main character

I very much enjoyed this book. It has a good story and excellent main characters. I would definately recommend this book.

Loved th is book and couldn't put it down. It was s heartfelt book about going after your dream and making it happened even at a cost

A light easy read, nice characters- perfect to while away a few hours . I felt I was missing something because I havnt read the previous books in the series , although it was supposed to be a stand-alone book
Thanks to Netgalley, Canelo and Lilac Mills for giving me the chance to read this book in exchange for an honest review

I received an ARC of this book through NetGalley in exchange for my unbiased opinion.

Edie loves making wedding dresses, even if her boss doesn't treat her well. At least she is able to schedule her work hours around taking care of her son. When society bride Tia begs Edie to make her dream wedding dress, Edie reluctantly agrees despite the risk of losing her job if her boss finds out. James, best man for Tia's wedding, is roped into helping Edie pull off Tia's secret dress and finds himself and finds himself falling for Edie. Edie has sworn off men, but she can't resist the attraction she feels toward James. However, she knows that she could never belong in his upper-crust world.

This was a cute love story with a happy ending that wraps everything up with a nice little bow. In the end, though, I don't think that there was anything in the story that will make it stand out from the hundreds of similar books in this genre. I did like that they humanized Moira at the end of the book so that she wasn't just a one-dimension villain. If you have read the first two books in the series, you will get to hear a little about how the main characters from those books are getting on. If you haven't read them, it is no problem to jump in with this third book in the Tanglewood series.

Lovely, cosy read. I’ve read the earlier books in the series and this one doesn’t disappoint. Always lovely to see how old characters are faring and lovely to meet new ones. Entertaining and enjoyable. Recommended read.

Thank you Netgalley

Oh I can’t read this. I have too many books on my shelves and I’m just not interested. Thanks for the love but bye bye now. Bye. Hanskxye

A cute, fun rom-com. I really liked the characters and went back and bought the first two in the series.

Many thanks to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for my ARC. All opinions are my own.

The Tanglewood Wedding Shop by Lilac Mills
Book #3: Tanglewood Village Series
Source: NetGalley and Canelo Escape
Rating: 4½/5 stars

I knew that second book was just a blip on the radar and not the start of downward trend!! I. Knew. It. Book three of the Tanglewood Village series is every bit as good as the first book with fantastic characters, a lovely story, and a setting that is just to die for.

Edie has devoted her life to two things, her young son and her work. Edie’s work is like oxygen, she needs it to survive, but the shop she works in is killing her spirit. Edie is a topnotch designer and seamstress who specializes in one-of-a-kind wedding dresses that are not only beautiful but elegant and perfectly designed for the bride, her body, and her personality. Edie is a magician with needles, thread, and fabric, but her boss never allows her to shine. In fact, Edie is so demoralized she rarely ever speaks in her boss’s presence, never contradicts her, never takes credit for her own work, and lives in fear of losing her job.

Since her accident, Tia has had to learn to adjust to life a bit lower to the ground. She may be wheelchair-bound but that certainly hasn’t dampened her personality. With her wedding coming up, Tia has had to learn the fine art of not speaking her mind. Her mother-in-law is quite big for her britches and has very distinct ideas about the way her son’s wedding should look and play out. While Tia doesn’t care about most of the details, her dress is one thing her MIL will not have a say in, at least as far as her MIL believes.

On the day of Tia’s wedding dress consultation, all goes exactly as Tia’s MIL and Edie’s boss expect; between the two of them, they run roughshod over Tia and Edie and all is right with the world. To Edie’s surprise, it isn’t a week later when she is secretly approached by Tia’s spy, James to make Tia the dress she actually wants. In secret, of course. Though Edie is deservedly worried about losing her job, she is more concerned with Tia not having the dress she wants and thus begins the project that will change a lot of lives.

As the weeks leading up to the wedding go by, Edie and her son become totally smitten with James and Tia. Edie admires Tia’s gumption and her willingness to take all the blame should things go wrong. She and her son adore James for very different though equally good reasons. Their time together may be limited, but it is always uniquely spent, fun, and all-inclusive. Edie adores James’ willingness to accept her son and include him and his willingness to help a friend (Tia) in need. Unfortunately, as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end, and when they do, it is a spectacular end.

The Bottom Line: Oh, boy! What a story this was, and I enjoyed every single word! Edie, James, Mary the bunny, and Tia were all fantastic characters that just wrapped me around their respective fingers and paws. There were moments of hilarity, moments of pure joy, moments of profound sadness, and straight up shenanigans. There was also, Betty and y’all know how I feel about her 😊 More than all of that, I loved how much Edie changed and evolved. She went from a scared young woman to a confident and happy woman and that was so lovely to see. I also very much loved the descriptions of the gowns she designed and made. While I know nothing of fashion and haute couture, I know what Edie was designing was top of the line. In all, I found this book to be utterly wonderful and I sure hope the small village of Tanglewood has a few more shops with single ladies!

It was a cute book and the story was great. I loved the plot. But the writing style was not upto my liking. I didn't much care abiut the characters.

I love the books by this author and this was a delightful romantic read!

I thought that the book had some great characters and I thought that it had great attention to detail.

It had me hooked right from the beginning through to the end - I loved every page.

It is 5 stars from me for this one, it is another fabulous read from this author and I can't wait to see what she releases next - very highly recommended!!

I loved returning to this series and picking up with life in the village. Edie is an endearing central character, so determined to do what is in the interests of her young son. You are willing her on to succeed from the beginning. With romance and humour in equal measure. I loved the exploits with the family pet and also some of the eccentric characters who seem to populate Tanglewood. A great book to relax into, with plenty of romance and heart-warming friendships to make you smile.

Thanks to netgalley for a copy of the book

A fantastic novel with a strong set of characters and a well written and enjoyable plotline. I had not read any of the previous books in the series however I don't feel as though I missed out on anything and still was able to enjoy it fully

I love a good wedding shop-based story and this did not disappoint.
Follow the ups & downs of the seamstress behind the beautiful gowns sold in the store. I haven’t read any of the Tanglewood series but will do now. I wasn’t sure at times if I was reading about some secondary characters and places that had perhaps been introduced in previous books, but it didn’t detract from the story. On the whole a thoroughly enjoyable read.

This review is really hard for me to write. I could not finish this book. I had a really hard time keeping my interest in the writing and i dont know if that is because I have not read the other 2 in the series or because the side items revolving the couple did not interest me. It really threw me off how the mention of being "poor" was thrown in so much and made me feel more sorry for the characters then wanting to read a romance.

Thank you to netgalley for allowing me to read this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I can always count on Lilac Mills to make me smile:

"'Miss Harding says discussions are when everyone gets to have their say.' Danny stuck out his chin, treating her to a defiant look. (..) 'Saying "no" isn't a discussion, Danny added."

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of the book.
