Product Description #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts invites readers to the wedding event of the year!
#1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts presents her first trade original-a novel of love, friendship, and family-Book One in the Bride Quartet.
Wedding photographer Mackensie "Mac" Elliot is most at home behind the camera, but her focus is shattered moments before an important wedding rehearsal when she bumps into the bride-to-be's brother...an encounter that has them both seeing stars.
A stable, safe English teacher, Carter Maguire is definitely not Mac's type. But a casual fling might be just what she needs to take her mind off bridezillas. Of course, casual flings can turn into something more when you least expect it. And Mac will have to turn to her three best friends-and business partners-to see her way to her own happy ending.

I anticipate every new Nora Roberts book July 29, 2010 Lisa I am always eager for a new series from Nora Roberts and this one does not let you down. The first book develops the setting for the next three. The only thing that seems a little contrived is Mac's relationship with her mother. It's just bad enought to filter through the series but really doesn't pack a lot of punch. However, it's still a page turner and what woman doesn't like weddings? I could also relate to how the women circle the wagons during a crisis and always have each other's backs. But, they will still joke and tease each other like real girlfriends do. You won't be dissappointed.
Amazing Start to an Amazing Quartet July 21, 2010 4Sterling I LOVED this book. I've read it twice in the last 8 mo - once in paperback and then on my kindle. This was one of my first "nonfree" kindle book purchase. A friend from work bought this book and lent it to me about 8 months ago and I was hooked. This book was a page turner for me and I read it in about a day because I couldn't put it down. If you like romanace novels, you definately need to read this one.
A beautiful start to an enchanting series July 21, 2010 Nelaine Sanchez (Miami, FL USA) First things first, I have a confession... this is my first Nora Roberts book. I know, I know, and no, I have not been living under a rock. I've always stayed away from her books because I am not much of a contemporary romance reader, and also because I have always felt that she writes for an older crowd. Don't ask me why I've been under that impression.
With that said, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I actually enjoyed this first book in the quartet. Not only did I find the writing hip and young, but the characters are all around my age (early 30's) so I really felt that I could relate.
This book really is the ultimate girly book - for no other reason then the fact that it revolves around weddings. I don't know about you guys, but I love weddings - not only being in one, but also attending them. I loved being a bride, I still do not regret the amounts of money we spent on our wedding, the pictures, the cake, the gifts... and this book really helps you reminisce and capture that joy once again.
Apart from the beautiful weddings, I think Ms. Roberts does a phenomenal job of capturing the friendships the four girls have. I truly loved their dynamics. They each have their own job/duties in running the premier wedding service that "Vows" provides. Piper - the wedding coordinator; Mackenzie - the photographer; Emmaline - florist extraordinaire and Laurel - the wedding cake designer. They all live right on the estate and are at the beck and call of each other. I absolutely adored this set-up. They were so tight, and deep and just had each others backs.
As for the romance, it was definitely sigh worthy. In comes Carter - literally - since he comes into Mac's house when she's shirtless - and out goes Carter - like literally - since he bangs his head so hard on her door that he almost passes out. I really liked the way their relationship unfolds... slowly and by these sweet increments, it really gave it a realistic aspect. It wasn't something where they meet, they fall madly in love, they jump in bed and they're married. No, this was a slow progression, that I think really worked. Mac has many issues, but I think Carter handled everything quite nicely, nothing some gentle persuasion couldn't accomplish.
I have always enjoyed a good story about relationships whether it's about romance, friendship or family - and in this book you will find all three. As with any romance, there is always a happy ending (at least in the one's I like to read), but I truly enjoy when a girl has to work for her happy ever after - and you definitely get that here.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book. I think it's a nice start to what I hope will be a very special series.
Great Story July 13, 2010 HB This book by Nora Roberts was great. I thoroughly enjoyed the story plus the descriptions of the wedding planning business. I didn't like the total predictablity of knowing the outcome, but the few twists and change made it most enjoyable. I recommended it to all my friends and definitely read the whole series!
cannot help but fall in love with July 12, 2010 Jessica Henry (Charleston, TN) This is the first book in a four part series about the women of Vows (a wedding business). Each book is about one of the women and the men they fall in love with. This is very much typical Nora Roberts. It is not a nail biting mystery, or action packed suspense, it is just a great story with very relatable characters that you cannot help but fall in love with. This first book follows Mac the photographer at Vows. I would recommend not only this book but the two that follow it that are all ready out Bed of Roses and Savor the Moment and I am sure I will love the 4th when it comes out in December 2010.
