Marry Me Tomorrow

Product Information

I received an e-copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion towards the book. Fans of Jo Thomas, Catherine Walsh and Philippa Ashley will love this heartwarming read from Carla Burgess. Praise for Carla Burgess: As more of the story unfolded I kept giggling because as readers, we were aware of the secret and her mum wasn't, so 'watching' Emily and her beau trying to match their stories was absolutely hilarious. I thoroughly enjoyed the spontaneity of the storyline and all of the characters involved, well, bar one (but you'll find out for yourself which one I'm on about!).

Yes, she gave me this big lecture about how I should reassure you that it was okay and I would accept you no matter what. I told her that you knew that anyway.’ Mum popped a forkful of curry in her mouth, apparently pleased with her response. I gulped down some wine. Maybe I wouldn’t go to the sodding meal either. ‘So, you see, Sam, you have to be there.’ Why do I have to have a man in my life? Is that the only thing that should define me as a woman? I think not. I’m perfectly happy on my own.” One of those rare books I can see myself revisiting time and again. I laughed. I cried. I laughed some more.’ – The Well Read Pirate QueenOh my gosh. I absolutely adored this book. This was just perfect. Yes ok in places it was sugary sweet overload but I just thought it was adorable. It had me laughing, and it made me happy and made me feel all warm and Christmassy. And when her excited mum announces that she’s coming to stay, Emily can think of only one man to play the part: gorgeous ex-soldier, Sam. It’s the best part of her day, handing him a coffee every morning – but then, Emily never expected to offer him her hand in marriage, too... Now, to get away from the OH MY GOD, IMAGINE A GAY, then one other gem of a joke and a passing fancy that caught me off guard: After a lot of persuading Sam agrees after all he will have a roof over his head and food in his belly. He will be able to sleep comfortably and will be warm and dry. But same comes with baggage an ex wife, a brother whose marriage is less than perfect and a daughter that he thought was his until a perternity test proved that his ex wife had been having an affair with his cousin. The problem is they all think Sam has been off living the high life when he has actually been sleeping on the streets. Emily needs a husband...fast. It’s just a few days until Christmas and to finally put a stop to her nagging mother’s matchmaking plans, Emily has convinced her that she’s already married!

Yes. Ha, ha. Don't get all offended, Emily. It isn't as though she wasn't correct at the start, but good lord. I wouldn't have even thought much of the comment initially, but then we continue on. There's something about christmas books that just makes you feel warm and at home. This book is not an exception. It also has one of my favorite tropes, the fake-relationship, so this book is definitely is up my alley. It's a few days until Christmas and our leading lady Emily needs a man to pretend to be her husband as her mum is coming to town. The book starts with Emily proposing to a man called Sam. The only thing is Sam is homeless and he really doesn't want to pretend to be married to Emily.And when her excited mum announces that she's coming to stay, Emily can think of only one man to play the part: gorgeous ex-soldier, Sam. It's the best part of her day, handing him a coffee every morning - but then, Emily never expected to offer him her hand in marriage, too... Fans of Debbie Johnson, Holly Martin and Christie Barlow will love this heartwarming read from debut author, Carla Burgess. Emily's mum Pam plans to visit her daughter with her new husband len but when she finds out he has been sleeping with someone else she comes on here own. Making Emily and Sams lie harder to distinguish from the truth and pushing them closer together. Fans of Jo Thomas, Catherine Walsh and Philippa Ashley will love this heartwarming read from Carla Burgess.

Funny and romantic, with a predictably good ending. A romance that makes you giggle!' - Kitty Loves BooksFunny and romantic, with a predictably good ending. A romance that makes you giggle!’ – Kitty Loves Books What?’ I gaped at him. ‘So, because I’m over thirty and don’t have a man in my life, I must be gay?’ When I first spotted this book on Carina's Facebook account I just knew that I had to go and buy it. After all, with a title like 'Marry Me Tomorrow', how can anyone let that go by them without reading it?! Far too curious for my own good.
