About the Book
Book: A Spring of Weddings: A Contemporary Spring Weddings Collection Authors: Toni Shiloh & Melissa Wardwell, Genre: Contemporary, Romance Release Date: March 30, 2017 A Proxy Wedding Carly James values loyalty and friendship above all, so when her best friend calls asking her to be a proxy bride, she says, ‘yes.’ How hard can it be to say ‘I do’ so that her best friend can be with the one she loves? Only, Carly never counted on the feelings that began to swirl around with the proxy groom. Damien Nichols likes life lined up from A to Z, but when his best friend calls in a favor, disorder begins to reign. Instead of taking a quick flight to the proxy wedding, he must take a road trip with the proxy bride. Carly’s free-spirit attitude bumps heads with his meticulous approach to life. As Damien discovers the woman underneath the carefree façade, his emotions become involved. Will love become real at A Proxy Wedding? Hope Beyond Savannah Lily Allman and Nikotemo (Nik) Lagatuo were the poster children for the term “opposites attract.” He was an evangelist and CEO for a non-profit from Samoa who grew up in a large loving family. She was a blond bombshell with a funky style and no family to call her own. Two of the most unlikely people meet in the most unlikely of places, but God had a plan when He brought them together. They never let their differences deter them from the love they had for each other, but when Nik’s mother comes to the States for the wedding, the idea of wedded bliss is shaken. Can prejudices be over looked, insecurities overcome, and hope for a better future be restored so that these two can have all that was promised? About the Authors Toni Shiloh is a wife, mom, and Christian fiction writer. Once she understood the powerful saving grace thanks to the love of Christ, she was moved to honor her Savior. She writes to bring Him glory and to learn more about His goodness. Melissa Wardwell was born and raised in a small mid-Michigan community living there still with her Husband and three children. She enjoys taking pictures, reading, and leisurely rides with her husband on their motorcycle. All her stories revolve around women who are mothers. Single mothers, widowed mothers, young mothers, married mothers, and even women who have a mother’s heart but no children of her own. Her hope is that each story touches your heart, gives you hope, or just gives you a moment away from the chaos of life. My Review A spring of weddings has two stories in it by two different authors. Both stories are delightful and very enjoyable. They are both centered around a wedding. The first one is by Toni Shiloh and I read another book of hers awhile back and remember really liking it too (so I guess you could say I have become a fan of her books now). Hers is a Proxy Wedding. Can you imagine asking your best friend to take your place and stand in for you at your wedding ? That is exactly what happens here but with it comes some fun along the way for the two stand ins who have never met. Now the next story is by Melissa Wardwell and I don't recall having read any of her books yet. Hers is called Hope Beyond Savannah. This story involves a biracial couple and the difficulties that may arise when families have a hard time accepting someone different . This could be a hard topic but the story is really a sweet one. Would very much recommend A Spring of Weddings for a nice light read. I received this book for free.
