Will this double wedding go without a hitch?

It’s the final visit to the Turner family and time for Camille and Dylan, plus Miranda and Vic to tie the knot.

But no one anticipated grandma’s interference. She did give birth to Dora after all…

Plans are changed, and a surprise appearance from three bridesmaids looks like being a complete ‘cat-astophe’.

Will the family get their happy-ever-afters, or is it going to be a complete balls up?

Favorite Quotes:

 

Now anyone who knew my other half, knew that at the best of times she lived up to her surname of Cross; but post-birth, whoa! It was like being in a live performance of The Exorcist.

 

She began pulling her top down a little showing some crinkly cleavage, “is it getting hot in here? I think we need a fireman, and oh look,” she waved a guy over. “I think this one wants us to look at his pole.” She’d organised a bloody stripper. My seventy-year-old gran.

 

My Review:

 

Andie M. Long closes out her irreverently humorous Balls series with one final misadventure with those crazy Turners. This time the entire clan was beyond stressed with pregnancies and a double wedding in the works. Oddly enough, Cam’s flamboyant and meddlesome grandmother was causing the most trouble with her bizarre add-ons and upstaging of the brides’ plans, while an exhausted Dora kept the fire department busy with her inattentive attempts at cooking.   I hope we haven’t seen the last of the Turners, they are a ridiculously outrageous family, one I wouldn’t want to live anywhere near, but I’ve enjoyed watching them from afar.

 

I picked up two new slang words for my Brit word list with whip-round – a collection of money made by a group of people that is then given to a particular person or used to buy a present for them, and narky – being cranky or irritable. I’d get narky if no one bothered to do a whip-round for my birthday – hint, hint.

 

About The Author

After twenty+ years of thinking about it, at the age of forty, I decided it was time to finally WRITE THE BOOK or forget about it. I studied two Open University Courses in Creative Writing and finally wrote my first novel. I’ve now written a ton of novels and have the ideas for so many more!

I live in Sheffield with my son and long-suffering partner. We now have a beautiful fur-baby called Bella. When not being a partner, mother, employee (I also work for the NHS) or writer I can usually be found on Facebook or Pinterest.
I’ll be signing in Newcastle 2017 and York 2018.
