The Wedding Party

De: Robyn Carr

Narrado por: Therese Plummer

After her divorce, Charlene Dugan vowed never to get married again - a promise she has kept for twenty-five years. Until the fateful day she finds herself uttering the well-known phrase - "Let's get married!" Almost immediately, Charlene's seemingly perfect life begins unraveling at the seams. Daughter Stephanie's own relationship is about to disintegrate, and she might be just a teensy-weensy bit jealous of her mom. And Charlene seems to be spending more time with her ex-husband than with her fiancé, Dennis. What's more confusing is that Dennis doesn't seem to mind too much. In fact, he sees the wedding consultant more often than Charlene does. The wedding party is now officially out of control. They're calling for rain and the bride has cold feet. This isn't exactly what Charlene had in mind. But maybe it's not too late to finally decide on who and what she really wants.

This one is quite a ride!

I became exhausted every time I picked up this book. It’s ending was good, but getting there was quite a roller coaster. I started to put it away several times because of the conflict, but after I’d relaxed a little, I picked it up again. I will say that if you start this you need to be prepared to listen closely. There is no written agenda. In true Robyn Carr style, the ending was great.

Good read

Ups and downs. Nice planned out plots. Her books never disappoint really. The story revolves around a mother, her daughter and grandmother. With all styles of love issues.

5 stars!

love this story!!!! I just about pee ' d my panties laughing so hard at the luncheon epiphany, followed by the emergency room scene between brother and sister.

Theresa Plummer is the best narrator ever.

the combination of Robyn Carrs stories and Therese Plummer s narration is always great! love them!

Nice twists and turns

I enjoyed the character development and variety of side issues that continually sidetracked their lives.

ok, but not satisfying

:::Spoiler Alert:::
Well enough written but I just didn’t connect with the characters. I was entertained with the opening chapter of Charlene’s worst day, but it didn’t make me connect. Then she was petulant with Jake and willing to ‘cut off her nose to spite her face’ by walking in the rain. Then I lost respect for her when she suddenly decided she should marry Dennis. Desperation? More spite? Yeah, no. Her surface maturity was exposed and I’m at the age where I want more emotional intelligence in my lead characters, whether they’re 15 or 75. So I started skipping through the story until the end.
I finished Kiwi Sin by Rosalind James just before this book and that one blew this away. Yes, I’ve followed James from the beginning of her NZ series and they just keep getting better. Escape to New Zealand series, then Not Quite a Billionaire series, then into her current NZ Ever After series where characters from both series overlap. All the feels you could intelligently hope for.
Plummer is an excellent narrator and does a great job voicing Carr books.

GOOD STORY!

This book certainly isn't Robyn Carr's best but it's still better than most. And Therese Plummer never disappoints. She's one of the main reasons that I listen to any book that she narrates. SO GOOD!!!

Dynamic Duo

I love Robyn Carr’s books and Therese Plummer’s performance of them! ENCORE! ENCORE!!! Especially the long series!

one of Robyn Carr's best

You can't go wrong with Robyn Carr and Therese Plummer! I've listened to all the Virgin River books more than once, would love just one more! But this was a wonderful surprise, interesting characters and a great story! Can't wait to see what she comes up with next!

Another winner

A truly enjoyable and satisfying read. Together with Ms. Plummer as narrator, I find I can't stop listening and keep reaching for more.
I'm so glad I stumbled across Ms. Carr's books. Kudos to you both!
