Synopsis

The holiday season continues in this captivating third novel in Chelsea Bobulski's All I Want for Christmas young-adult contemporary romance series.Isla Riddle has been obsessed with True Love for as long as she can remember. Books, TV, movies - if it's a story about star-crossed lovers, ill-fated love, or love conquering all, Isla has read it, seen it, and talked nonstop about it. She's also dedicated her life to it by helping her mom build up Riddle's Bridal Boutique and Wedding Planning, a business they started together after her dad left town ... and they've just received their biggest break yet: a high society bride with a million-dollar budget.August Harker doesn't have to think much about his life - it's already been planned for him. He has the parent-approved heiress girlfriend, the 4.0 GPA at an elite college preparatory school, and over a dozen lacrosse and debate team trophies. He has no reason to think his life won't turn out just like his dad's, which is exactly why he isn't into planning weddings, parties, or any other event where hundreds of his father's closest clients and legal associates are in attendance. However, planning a wedding is exactly where he finds himself as his older sister prepares to walk down the aisle.As Isla works with August behind-the-scenes, she becomes more and more convinced that he's the one: the soulmate she's been waiting for. August feels it, too, that rightness of being with Isla, and as August hears Isla talk about dreams like they're real possessions that can be achieved, he dares to hope for another future entirely, one in which he can become what he's always wanted to be.But can their love - and August's newly-resurrected dreams - survive the layers of expectations and ambitions that have been placed upon him?

Of all the books in the series, this is the one I've had mixed feelings about! Here's why: Isla is an assistant wedding planner, helping her mom run her successful small business.

4.5 stars! Wow, what a whirlwind. My heart was not prepared for this rollercoaster. This was a classic case of the boy dating the awful girlfriend and falling in love with the nice girl, but I thought the author handled it well. It’s not right to cheat, but when the girlfriend is a selfish jerk, it d......more

I received an early digital galley from Wise Wolf Books in exchange for an honest review. I love a good Hallmark Christmas movie as much as the next person, and now that it's officially Christmas season, I thought I'd pick up another one of Bobulski's "All I Want for Christmas" books. One of the big......more

Isla Riddle is a huge fan of “true love,” well in books and movies. Seems fitting that she works with her mom at Riddle’s Bridal Boutique and Wedding Planning. But love is something that happens to their clients, not Isla. August’s sister is getting married. She has chosen a cute little boutique in t......more
