I'd forgotten how much I love Sarah Morgan as a writer. I enjoyed the family dynamics and relationships in this book and really connected with Adeline. The story follows the POV of Catherine and her daughters Adeline and Cassie. If you like second chance romances, family dynamics and drama then this is for you! This was a beautiful, relatable read and one of my absolute favourites!

I received this arc in exchange for an honest review. 🤍

i think it’s safe to say that sarah morgan never disappoints and this is her best novel yet. this follows catherine, adeline, and cassie as they head to corfu for catherine’s fourth wedding.

i love sarah morgan books as they always encapsulate the complexity of the female characters so well. i also adore how her stories tend to follow three main characters with intertwined yet individual stories.

this was such a good book. there were many things that i didn’t see coming and parts that moved me so much. i wish i read this sooner.

This book took a little while for me to warm to. I enjoyed the story but it felt like it wasn’t going anywhere for ages. After the half way Mark it picked up pace and in the end I enjoyed it. I particularly liked the developing friendship between the sisters. I didn’t much like Catherine tbh and felt she was quite selfish.

All in all an enjoyable read

I always get excited when I open a new Sarah Morgan book and Summer Wedding was a perfect escape into the warmth of Corfu.

Adeline and Cassie receive an invitation to their Mum's fourth wedding. Adeline is horrified, Cassie is excited. The half-siblings are estranged and have completely different personalities. Adeline is controlled and logical and doesn't show emotions. Cassie on the other hand is ruled by her heart and loves love.

As they gather on the island and they meet her Mum's intended, things blow up and long held secrets are revealed.

Things are intense, but with honest communication for the first time, family wounds and rifts are healed.

Summer Wedding is heartfelt and comforting and full of wonderfully romantic moments, it also has depth and meaning and I adored it.

Sarah Morgan can do no wrong.

I loved the family element here, the drama and all that ensues when family get together.

Of course it wouldn’t be a Sarah Morgan book without some romance. She really doesn’t disappoint.

Whats not to love about this book. I love Sarah Morgan and love her writing. Great characters, great storyline and great setting. This is now another of my favourites from her.

I really like Sarah Morgan's books and this one was no exception. I enjoyed the romance and topsy Turvey feel of the relationships in this book.

There is a lot that unfolds in this story and it's intriguing as to what is going to happen. I was expecting the person Catherine was going to marry to be the person it was and I think it was a bit of a shock for all.

It's got beautiful bits in this book where despite their past turbulent relationship Adeline and her mum have such lovely conversations about the past and future.

I like the setting of Corfu and the growing relationship between Adeline and her sister. Really heartwarming book with some powerful past difficulties.

Love this author
And another great book
Just wanted to keep turning the pages and not put it down
Thanks NetGalley

A heartily reliable Sarah Morgan story. Romantic and leaves you with a strong desire to go on holiday!

Another joyous summer read from Sarah Morgan.
I enjoyed following the story and the characters.
A wonderful story that's full of escapism.

A summer beach read, a lovely Greek island, villa and pool house, squabbling families, love and siblings. An easy read but not one to remember afterwards.

There hasn't been a single book that Sarah Morgan has released that I haven't loved, and summer wedding didn't disappoint.

This was a great summer read, would recommend.

I was pleasantly surprised by Summer Wedding, the latest novel by Sarah Morgan; I confess to have made some assumptions earlier on in the book — all of which delightfully turned out to be wrong (and then some!).

In Summer Wedding, we meet bestselling author Catherine Swift, who is preparing for her fourth wedding on the beautiful Greek island of Corfu. Her daughters — each from a different marriage — are due to attend, despite ongoing family tension between the three of them. Adeline, the eldest, is fresh out of a passionless relationship, and needing some time to herself to re-assess her life choices. Cassie, the youngest — and allegedly the reason why the marriage between Adeline’s father and Catherine failed — is hopeful that recent opportunities are leading her to a life she has always dreamed about. The two sisters are as different as chalk and cheese, both in terms of life and in terms of their views regarding their mother’s fourth marriage: one excited, the other less so. Once they both arrive on Corfu, those tensions escalate — and then comes Catherine’s bombshell…

As I say, I made assumptions about where this book was going and what would happen to each character, and for this I humbly apologise to the author, because once again Morgan weaves a beautiful and heartfelt story spanning generations and relationships. I love how Morgan brings her characters to life and really connected with Cassie in particular. I was on the edge of my seat, waiting to see how her arc would end, and I was not disappointed. Adeline, as well, had a beautiful arc and I felt soaked by the sun and sea-spray as she rediscovered herself. And Catherine’s own arc was ultimately redemptive and warm-hearted.

Corfu was a beautiful setting and I could really feel myself there, alongside this family trying to acknowledge and repair the relationships between mother and daughters, and haalf-sister and half-sister. The supporting case are also well-rounded and totally at home upon the Greek island.

All in all, this was a great summer read and one I highly recommend for a lazy afternoon, either on the beach or at home, dreaming of sun-warmed sands and crystal seas.

I received an e-ARC from the publisher, HQ, through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you to Netgalley, the publishers and of course the author for gifting me this advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.

Sarah Morgan is known for her romance books and this one was just as brilliant as her others. I was quickly enthralled in the 3 main characters - Catherine, Adeline and Cassie - and the book was written from each of their POVs.

Each of these 3 women all have very strong storylines and I had different emotions for each - my opinion of Catherine changed as the book went on and her story was told and you gained a better understanding of why she came across so self absorbed in the beginning; Adeline broke my heart and I felt so much emotion for her and what she had been through and Cassie had seen / experienced things from a different perspective to Adeline.

The way Sarah has described Corfu instantly transports my mind there and I can almost feel the sun beating down on me and feel the salty sea breeze on my skin.

I really enjoyed this. It was an easy read and the story line kept me up turning pages into the morning. Would definitely recommend to all I know.

The story of years of lies and drama. Gladly all gets trashed out and ends well . A nice summer holiday read

This is another book I’d kept specifically to read while I was on holiday this year. I’ve loved Sarah Morgan for a long, long time so I was excited to dive into this.

The story follows two estranged sisters Adeline and Cassie and their mother Catherine. Each sister has a very different relationship with their mother and very different views on her getting married yet again. After a real battle with herself Adeline decides she’ll travel to Corfu for the wedding. The story takes off from there with twists and turns, and an emotional rollercoaster.

If you’re looking for other titles from Sarah I’d recommend the entire From Manhattan With Love series, Puffin Island series or if you’re getting in the mood for something festive then look no further than The Snow Crystal series! I’m definitely looking forward to reading Sarah’s 2023 Christmas release The Christmas Book Club.

This was a great summer holiday read from Sarah Morgan. When Adeline and Cassie are invited to their mother's fourth wedding on the island of Corfu, they both have very different feelings about Catherine's forthcoming nuptuals.

This story covers the relationships between a mother and her daughters, and how your childhood experiences can shape a lifetime.

It was a light, easy read, and although I guessed the twist early on in the story I enjoyed this beach read. The descriptions of Corfu made me want to be there!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

(3.5)

These characters are so incredibly unlikeable for the first 50-60% of the book due to the miscommunication trope. Don’t get me wrong I felt the ending was obvious as we navigated through the pile of lies the family had been feeding to one another but some little semblance of upfront honesty may have put this up to a 4/4.5 star for me.

That being said the move to something different to the generic contemporary genre with the twist of a thriller in the death of Rob was really intriguing.
