Synopsis

A destination wedding may be destined for disaster, in this sparkling romantic comedy by the author of The Other Bridget. Winifred ‘Fred’ Darling, serial dater and author of 21 Rules for Not Catching Feelings, may not have been the best choice for maid of honor at her mother’s sixth wedding. Indeed, she’s determined to do everything in her power to stop it—and she’s found a kindred spirit in the groom’s attractive son, Leo. He’s dead-set against the wedding too, and once they arrive on the island where their respective parents plan to get hitched, “Operation Break-Up” is set in motion… But as sparks fly between Fred and Leo, their mission gets a little complicated. Will Fred’s rigid beliefs about romance be turned upside down? Does every relationship have to follow the rules? And could Fred actually become the lead in a rom-com of her very own?

We first met Winifred - Fred - in Johns' previous novel The Other Bridget. Fred is a librarian and an aspiring writer. Her current writing project is "21 Ways to Not Catch Feelings".

Big thanks to Penguin for sending us a copy to read and review. The Bad Bridesmaid is the glorious sequel to The Other Bridget. It can be read as a standalone as it’s loosely linked but to get the best reading experience, I suggest you read Bridget first, also it’s a fantastic book too. A delightful, h......more

The best laugh out loud moments I've had in so long while reading this book! What an absolute gem! 💎 A reverse parent trap situation that was done perfectly 👌 (Have you ever watched The Parent Trap movie?

Goodreads review by Deborah (debbishdotcom) on January 26, 2025

I really liked Fred in The Other Bridget and worried she came off as a bit arrogant and snarky when we first meet her here, but it's probably more reflective of her personality. She's confident in her looks and sexuality and doesn't really seem to carry any baggage relating to self-worth - with whic......more
