    About this audiobook

    The brilliant new summer bestseller from Lindsey Kelk, author of the I Heart series

    Everyone loves a bridesmaid.
    Except Maddie, who’s perpetually asked to be one.
    Everyone loves a wedding.
    Except Maddie’s best friend, who’s getting divorced.
    And everyone loves the way Maddie’s so happy backstage.
    Except Maddie herself.
    One best friend is in wedding countdown while the other heads for marriage meltdown. And as Maddie juggles her best chance at promotion in years with bridezilla texts and late-night counselling sessions, she starts to wonder – is it time to stop being the bridesmaid?

      Meh, at best. There’s hardly a storyline here and the two best friends are very irritating. The narrator has a lisp which is kind of cute but quite distracting.
    • 4/5
      I would have liked a little bit more romance between characters. It was more about friendships than love story.
    • 5/5
      A new favorite author! Light, funny, and entertaining! Really enjoyed!
    • 4/5
      This was such a fun read about Maddie, an assistant events planner, who gets herself into some sticky situations. Along with her two pals, Sarah, and Lauren, this book is never dull for very long.
