I Love Sarah Morgan’s books and was so happy to read this.

I really enjoyed the story and learning about the sisters and their mum Catherine.

I love how the sisters come together and their bond grew.

The character development was my favourite part and the setting.

Romance, mystery, complicated relationships, this book has more than enough to satisfy the most demanding of readers. Taken out of their comfort zones, our protagonists constantly fins themselves up against twists and turns. Loved it!

Sun-soaked, heartwarming and uplifting romance centered on two sisters and their mother who is a best-selling romance author and now lives in a beautiful villa in Corfu.

Cassie and Adeline have very different outlooks on life. Despite sharing a mother, they had very different childhoods, and this has profoundly affected the paths their lives have taken. Cassie is open-hearted and believes in a great romance. Adeline still protects herself from the feelings of abandonment and isolation at being rejected at a young age when her mother divorced Adeline's father and married Cassie's father instead, sending Adeline off to boarding school where she never really fitted in.

Estranged from her mother and half-sister, Adeline is very close to her father, so when her mother announces she is marrying for the fourth time, she agrees to attend because it is what her father wants her to do. Although the wedding will be in beautiful Corfu, it will mean seeing the sister who she was torn away from decades ago. It would be easier for Adeline to accept her fractured relationship with her mother if she didn't know it was personal, constantly faced with the proof of her mother's capacity to be a great mother to Cassie.

Removed from their everyday lives, and finally able to spend time together and speak openly, secrets are revealed and the sisters are able to open up about their insecurities and address their preconceptions against the backdrop of the beautiful Greek island.

Thank you NetGalley for my advance copy of this book, I’m a huge Sarah Morgan fan so was delighted to receive this advance copy.

Summer Wedding is an enjoyable read but had a slightly different feel to a Sarah Morgan book as it had a ‘dark’ theme running throughout the book which was clever as it matched the narrative of one of the main characters changing from a romance writer to writing thrillers. I really enjoyed the storyline between the two estranged sisters and loved seeing that progress. A good 3.5 star read for me and I would recommend this book to others, Sarah Morgan is a go to author for me!

Catherine lives in Corfu and writes books. Shes also getting married for the fourth time but there is no mention who the groom is. She would like her daughters to attend but her relationship isn't great with her eldest daughter and her two daughers also don't have the best relationship either..

Her parents separated when she was little and after Cassie was born, she was sent to England to live with her father.

Whereas Cassie had a very good relationship with her mother, after her father passed away.

When they meet, it’s not the happy occasion Catherine expected. Secrets come out and grudges are laid out.

Will their relationship ever be restored after all past disagreements are cleared?

I ended up reading this on holiday in Greece, just not Corfu. It was nice to read about the clear waters whilst sat next to the sea watching them myself and even nice to read it after I went on a boat experiencing the same settings as the three ladies.

I Enjoyed this book but also have that feeling that I wanted more, it seemed like all the good stuff happened at the end 80-90% and I could have read more!!

I suppose that’s a good book for you wanting more!!

A story of family and it’s complex relationships and of finding love and happiness and how events of the past shape the future told from the points of view of a mother and her two daughters and against the beautiful backdrop of Corfu. It also covers some emotional topics such as grief and cohesive control.

This author always writes powerfully about human emotions and connections. And the summer wedding doesn’t disappoint.

Look forward to reading what this author comes up with next.

A Sarah Morgan never disappoints. This one focuses on a family wedding set in Greece. Imagine going to multiple weddings of your mum.

I'd forgotten how much I love Sarah Morgan as a writer. I enjoyed the family dynamics and relationships in this book and really connected with Adeline. The story follows the POV of Catherine and her daughters Adeline and Cassie. If you like second chance romances, family dynamics and drama then this is for you! This was a beautiful, relatable read and one of my absolute favourites!

I received this arc in exchange for an honest review. 🤍

i think it’s safe to say that sarah morgan never disappoints and this is her best novel yet. this follows catherine, adeline, and cassie as they head to corfu for catherine’s fourth wedding.

i love sarah morgan books as they always encapsulate the complexity of the female characters so well. i also adore how her stories tend to follow three main characters with intertwined yet individual stories.

this was such a good book. there were many things that i didn’t see coming and parts that moved me so much. i wish i read this sooner.

This book took a little while for me to warm to. I enjoyed the story but it felt like it wasn’t going anywhere for ages. After the half way Mark it picked up pace and in the end I enjoyed it. I particularly liked the developing friendship between the sisters. I didn’t much like Catherine tbh and felt she was quite selfish.

All in all an enjoyable read

I always get excited when I open a new Sarah Morgan book and Summer Wedding was a perfect escape into the warmth of Corfu.

Adeline and Cassie receive an invitation to their Mum's fourth wedding. Adeline is horrified, Cassie is excited. The half-siblings are estranged and have completely different personalities. Adeline is controlled and logical and doesn't show emotions. Cassie on the other hand is ruled by her heart and loves love.

As they gather on the island and they meet her Mum's intended, things blow up and long held secrets are revealed.

Things are intense, but with honest communication for the first time, family wounds and rifts are healed.

Summer Wedding is heartfelt and comforting and full of wonderfully romantic moments, it also has depth and meaning and I adored it.

Sarah Morgan can do no wrong.

I loved the family element here, the drama and all that ensues when family get together.

Of course it wouldn’t be a Sarah Morgan book without some romance. She really doesn’t disappoint.

Whats not to love about this book. I love Sarah Morgan and love her writing. Great characters, great storyline and great setting. This is now another of my favourites from her.

I really like Sarah Morgan's books and this one was no exception. I enjoyed the romance and topsy Turvey feel of the relationships in this book.

There is a lot that unfolds in this story and it's intriguing as to what is going to happen. I was expecting the person Catherine was going to marry to be the person it was and I think it was a bit of a shock for all.

It's got beautiful bits in this book where despite their past turbulent relationship Adeline and her mum have such lovely conversations about the past and future.

I like the setting of Corfu and the growing relationship between Adeline and her sister. Really heartwarming book with some powerful past difficulties.
