Amanda's Wedding: A Novel

Product Description<br/><br/><br/>A Riotously Funny Story of Love, Life . . . and the Fine Art of Sabotage <br/>Meet Melanie and Fran - two charmingly wisecracking young Londoners who simply can't believe it when their old schoolfriend Amanda, Satan's own PR agent, manages to get herself hitched to a laird (Scottish for lord). Who cares that Fraser McConnel has worn the same ratty Converse sneakers for years and that his castle is really a pile of rubble? All the social-climbing queen of preen cares about is the title she'll soon have. She's got Fraser by the nuptials, and she has no intention of letting go. Gentle, decent Fraser is completely innocent to Amanda's wiles, so Mel and Fran, still smarting from Amanda's evil misdeeds years ago in school, join forces with Fraser's adorable younger brother Angus to sabotage the mismatch of the century. Mel's got her hands, and her heart, full between fighting off the attentions of a love-crazed accountant, dealing with her ne'er-do-well rock star wannabe boyfriend, keeping Fran's deadly maneuvers with the opposite sex under control, consuming large quantities of alcohol, and tossing out hysterical barbs that would make Oscar Wilde proud.<br/><br/><br/>Review<br/><br/><br/>Hip, trendy, and raunchily hilarious...This contemporary romp unfolds like a movie and will please readers who yearn for sophisticated humor and a happily-ever-after ending.-- "Booklist"<br/><br/><br/>Funny, magical, and moving.-- "Time Out on Christmas at the Cupcake Cafe"<br/><br/><br/>About the Author<br/><br/><br/>Jenny Colgan is the New York Times bestselling author of novels in several series, including the Rosie Hopkins series, Cupcake Café series, Little Beach Street Bakery series, and Polly and the Puffin series, as well as numerous stand-alone novels.
