Summary

An irresistible, feel-good romance, perfect for fans of Rosie Blake, Sophie Kinsella and Lindsey Kelk.

First comes love. Then comes family…

After a lifetime of kissing frogs, Roxie Pratt has given up on finding her own fairytale romance. That is, until she meets her very own Prince Charming, Mark Wright, and he sweeps Roxie off her feet!

So when Mark finally gets down on one knee and pops the question, there’s only one thing left to do: meet the family! And when everything has been picture-perfect so far, what could possibly go wrong…?

Its not you….

This is another fun story from Portia, lots of quirky characters bringing out lots of emotions.
Only criticism is for me the ending felt a bit rushed.
Well narrated.

Poor story I’m afraid Portia

I usually love Portia books but found this one stressful, upsetting and unsettling. Just why Roxy stayed and put up with the sheer nastiness was totally unrealistic …. Really evil people. As always well read by Karen Cass.

Great story

Really liked this one. Good story with developing character storylines. You felt invested and slightly unsure how it would end. Kept me listening!

entertaining but not believable

I really wanted to like it as I enjoyed other Portia’s books but this one was not so great. Narration by Karen Cass was as always brilliant and that’s probably why I carried on reading/listening. If you’re looking for some easy cheesy listening then you’ll enjoy this. It’s really funny made me giggle but the story itself is unbelievable and far fetched. It’s a shame as it had the potential.

Good but not her best

Good book but definitely not her best.
I enjoyed it , nice listen but not as engaging & funny as normal. I didn’t like how isolated Roxi was made to feel. I also felt the end was rushed. Short book compared to others

Very annoying main female character

Roxie is the most annoying character! Whining and unlikeable. I love Karen Cass' narration and usually she can make anything listenable but this book is not good. Really don't waste any money on it

Weak story

I usually love a Portia MacKintosh story but this one wasn’t up to her normal standard, disappointing.

UNBELIEVABLE even for fiction!!!

Excruciating when extracts are being read aloud on Christmas Day with the author of the article and her fiancé sitting there just saying “stop reading” Too far fetched
