Country Wedding review by Jennifer

This book was actually a movie made into a book, which I have never experienced. Hallmark has some amazing movies and they have decided to share these movies as books for their followers. I love to spend my time watching the Hallmark channel, especially since I don’t have to wait until my kids go to bed. This book, I probably could have shared with my 8 year old who always cuddles up to me when I turn on the Hallmark channel. I can always count on everything to be family friendly and don’t have to explain things that she is too young to understand! We are enjoying Christmas in July! We are spending too much time watching the Hallmark channel, but we are beating the heat!

This book begins with Bradley (played by Jesse Metcalfe in the movie) juggling his career,  writing new songs, planning a wedding, making public appearances and just trying to stay grounded. Bradley was raised in a small town, Mill Town and is engaged to Catherine Mann (played by Laura Mennell in the movie), an actress who got her start as a child star and is used to being in the spotlight. While on TV, Catherine blurts out that they are engaged, a secret that they have been keeping form their adoring fans for privacy reasons. We are then cut to Sarah (played by Autumn Reeser in the movie) who was born and raised in Mill Town, even still lives in the house that she had grown up in.Sarah is reminiscing  about how she married Bradley at 13 years old in her parent’s barn by their best friend, Adam. Bradley decides to venture home after receiving a letter from someone from his childhood. He decides that it is time that he go back and sell his house, since he has not been back since he was 13. Unfortunately, Catherine is in the middle of filming a movie and cannot drop everything to head back with him. While he is home, he is tasked with planning the wedding on his own, he reconnects with a few old friends and  they manage to help him along the way with his planning. Many things are discovered about Bradley’s relationship with Catherine. We laugh through this book, we cry, we are mad, but in the end, things work out in a way that we always wanted! It is a nice feel good book and movie!
