I absolutely loved this book. So much I actually want to go straight back to the beginning to read it again and savour the adventure once more.

Told from the perspectives of Jo and Adrián the Exes travelling to the wedding in Spain that will make the, a blended family with their children.

They face so many disasters but somehow see the best in each other. I love the real feel of the characters in this story and the relationships with their children are tender and heart warming.

A perfect summer escape will leave you longing for a coffee in the sunshine.

This was a fun and interesting concept that ended up a just fine read!

Jo is on her way to her ex-husband’s extravagant wedding when she sees her PTA rival and ex-husband of her ex-husband’s bride-to-be, Adrián. When they run into some weather trouble and have their flight diverted they end up working together to travel across Europe to make the wedding, but mostly to reach their kids who are already there.

The journey is not smooth by any means and while it was a lot of fun, at times it was excessive to the point of being annoying. I don’t need everything to be completely realistic but it did pull me out of the story at time.

The story really picks up in the last ~100 pages and you really feel these characters building a chemistry and relationship that could blossom outside of their circumstances. I enjoyed this book the most once they’d arrived at the wedding and all of the necessary conversations with all parties started happening.

I really enjoyed the way Mack wrote the children in this book. All three of them felt the ages they were described as and like real people with thoughts and feelings.

Overall, I’d feel comfortable recommending this to someone looking for a fun romance with mature characters!

Thank you to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for the eARC!

I loved this book. It was sunny and funny and sweet and a perfect book to read to look forward to beach days, paella and sangria. I loved the family dynamics, the gentleness between the children as their lives were gently interwoven through no choice of their own. I liked Jo and I really loved Adrian and the Jo that she baca me with his friendship. This was the best book I had read for a while and I was sad to finish it. Thank you NetGalley for this arc in exchange of an honest review.

Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for letting me read along with review this book ARC A Wedding in the Sun. This was a 3 star novel and the first book i've read by the author Leonie Mack. A Wedding in the Sun is a feel the love travel adventure kind of book. My favorite part of this novel was the was the love, laughter and travel along with seeing where the characters started in addition to how the character ended. I hope people liked this book as much as I did.

I’d like to thank Boldwood Books, NetGalley, and the author for an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review!

the story and concept of this book was way to funny! The side characters were honestly my favourite part! I DIDNT really feel the 2 mains had any connection in my opinion. It all felt so forced.. the chemistry was basically non existent.. I wanted to really like this one because there were so many moments I did laugh out loud! But the rest just wasn’t really for me.. if I don’t connect with the 2 main characters I just won’t like the story!

2.5⭐️

I wanted to like this book.. I really did. But it was just OK. I didn’t find myself rooting for the main characters to be together. I didn’t find myself really caring about the plot that much. I found it to be corny and silly.. just a little too much. it’s an easy read. But I can’t say that there was much substance to the book.

This story takes us from London to France and across the Pyrenees to the South of Spain. This is a madcap story of hilarious and unfortunate incidents that happen to Jo and Adrian as they travel to their exe’s wedding. After a storm diverts their plane to a small airport in France, Jo and Adrian are forced to room together. Neither are happy about the pairing and both are worried about reaching their kids who are waiting in Spain for them. The diversion is just the tipping point of a series of mishaps on the way to Spain including a missed bus, an accident, a hospital stay, and a stolen guitar. Leonie Mack has written a madcap story that is completely relatable. We cringe as each new mishap throws a wrench in Jo and Adrian’s travel plans. Adrian is portrayed as a grump, but the forced proximity to Jo and their ability to rely on each other through each obstacle makes the reader root for Adrian and Jo. Their banter is witty and their display of parental affection for their children has the reader rooting in the end for this couple.

This was one of the funniest books I have read in a while!
I was caught on by Adrian and Jo's adventure at the very beginning. The "enemies" to lover trope is well mastered and believable and brings the perfect amount of tension for the only one room scene... Because obviously, in a roadtrip book, that was a must.
I adored the concept, the characters, the setting, everything.
Adrian and Jo's chemestry is incredible and goes crescendo as the book unfolds. I loved seeing them fall in love on the page with the reader as witness.
Also, I want to note the attention to details with the French and the Spanish settings. I'm often left dissapointed by books that happen in countries I know well but here it wasn't the case. The setting is so very authentic, and its characters too. It was a true pleasure to read.

Chaotic, fun and possibly the worst road trip/ wedding anyone could possibly attend. Jo and Adrian are forced together when their journey to tge wedding of their ex spouses by a storm. They hate each other or do they?
Things really go wrong in this madcap trip: some of these disasters are funny and some make you cringe but our main characters reactions are what really makes this book worthwhile. I loved both of them and the kids they eventually reach after all the disasters. I loved it

I have never read anything by Leonie Mack before but I enjoyed the story.
It was a lovely story of romance and humour with plenty of real life scenarios along the way and really showed the realities of blended families.
The ending was perfect and really tied up the story.
Thanks to Netgalley, Leonie Mack and a Boldwood Books for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the eARC

This is a fun romance book and overall I enjoyed the story of Jo and Adrian! You definitely get a quick laugh out of some situations and in others you feel deeply with them. Some situations (I won't name, spoilers) weren't my cup of tea and sometimes problems would've been solved if people talked. Great for in between.

This was a whirlwind of disasters for two divorcées trying to make a wedding for their ex’s happen. This has a rom com movie adaptation written all over it. In multiple comedy of errors two people are thrown together trying to survive the trials and tribulations to get to a wedding they both dread attending. Although highly unlikely I could see this story playing out in real life. Both in their mid forties this uptight woman from England and a laid back man from Spain make it through some stressful situations and find love in the end. This was a very entertaining read. Thank you to NetGalley for this free advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.

I had high hopes for the concept of this book and thought it would be super funny. However, overall I personally didn’t vibe with the writing style, and felt like it was a little chaotic at times which made it hard to get through.

The concept of the book is hilarious but I didn't vibe with the writing style. The chemistry between the main leads was basically non existent.

This book was so complicated and messy it was not for me. It didn't make logical sense to me that this situation they put themselves in would ever occur and it just got sloppy from there. The plot just wasn't for me.

I loved this book a lot! The cover is beautiful and I could not put it down. The setting was just what I was looking for.

I absolutely adored this book - and the cover is so gorgeous. An ex-husband and ex-wife are going to their ex’s wedding in Spain and they happen to meet on the plane. A laugh out loud read, a perfect book to read on the beach. The main characters are wonderful and the children's antics made me laugh too. Oscar, who is 7, is quite the character. Complete with a perfect ending - a must read for the romcom lovers!

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.

A charming and delightful adventure in Spain and France. It isn't so delightful for the main characters. Whatever can go wrong on a trip does. A destination wedding becomes quite a challenging destination. Light, sweet, and romantic. Thanks to the publisher for providing a copy via NetGalley. My review is voluntary.

The story is messy, funny and full of extreme and incredible circumstances happening for the two exes who are attending the wedding of their two other exes. Yes! it is as it sounds! Expect lots of over the top scenes that are entertaining and endearing at the same time. It leaves you rooting for the happy ending of the exes invited to the wedding.

Jo is the ex wife of Ben, invited to his wedding with the only hope to integrate the past with the future, his future. She has two kids from that marriage who are teenagers and pretty much overwhelmed with the wedding activities. Specially, when it’s an English family marrying into a Spanish family. On the other side is Adrián, the Spanish husband of Monica. They have a seven year old boy, who is prone to incidents. Jo and Adrián, who are not fond of each other, travel in the same plane to the first destination of their much dreaded holiday. Suddenly, they experienced the first of many incidents they will have along the way but that somehow will make them closer to each other and to the whole chaotic family.

I personally enjoyed the book. Made me laugh just thinking of everything that happened to them.
