Book Review: "Mistletoe and Wedding Bells" by Ashley Farley

No, I don’t want to be done with the Hope Springs series!! I love these characters!!

Christmas is just around the corner. Stella, owner of The Inn at Hope Springs Farms, wants nothing more than to finally marry her fiancée, Jack. But she has so much on her mind, especially an impending custody battle over her half-sister, Jazz, whose mother will stop at nothing to keep Stella from winning, which could lead to drastic circumstances.

Presley, the Inn’s event planner, will be spending her first Christmas since her mother died, and her musician boyfriend is on the road. She decides to throw her energy into planning a surprise wedding for Stella and Jack, but will this be the wedding of Stella’s dreams or her own?

Cecily, the Inn’s talented chef, is supposed to marry her boyfriend on Christmas Eve. But as the wedding draws closer, are they actually suited for each other, or are they getting married too soon? Cecily has to navigate her nervousness about her relationship with her anxiety about her job.

Mistletoe and Wedding Bells, the third in Ashley Farley’s Hope Springs series, tells all three stories. I feel like I’ve known these characters for a while, and even when they’re annoying me a little, I can’t get enough of them. Farley brings such warmth and joy to her books even when her characters are at low points, and that makes these books so enjoyable to read.

You could read this as a stand-alone, but I’d recommend starting with the first book, Dream Big, Stella! Hopefully you’ll fall in love with Hope Springs and Ashley Farley like I have.

So grateful to be on the blog tour for this book. Thanks to Kate Rock Book Tours and Ashley Farley for providing me with an advance copy of the book in exchange for an unbiased review!!
