Five Brides-One Dress Kate Winton-Jones is marrying one of America's most eligible bachelors. Edward Carnarvon III is rich, handsome and hers. But at the final fitting of her wedding gown, one of the seamstresses pricks her and a tiny blood spot appears on the outrageously expensive gown. Its famous designer fires the clumsy seamstress on the spot, whereupon the girl puts a curse on the dress and storms out. Kate doesn't believe in curses. She's modern, American and in love with the perfect guy. What could go wrong? But that very evening she meets a man who makes her question her future. And then she discovers that Edward has been hiding a secret or two... and before you can say, "This dress is so cursed," she's on the run from Edward, his family, her mother, the paparazzi and the person she thought she was. When the man who discovers her hiding place turns out to be the last man she should trust, it's time to throw her cautious good sense out with the satin shoes she won't be wearing. Playing it safe hasn't done her much good. Maybe it's time to play by a new set of rules. Her rules. Sometimes Prince Charming is the one who turns out to be the frog, and true love appears in the most unexpected places. Follow the cursed dress through five sets of bridal hands as four more women join The Almost Wives Club. These are complete novels. Watch for: Secondhand Bride coming in April, 2015 Bridesmaid for Hire coming in May, 2015 The Wedding Flight in June, 2015 If the Dress Fits in July 2015 To stay on top of all new releases, sign up for Nancy's newsletter at www.nancywarren.net… (altro)

Fun. I’m not much on the “swell people” so it almost lost me, but once you get past the beginning, it gets much better. A fun, light hearted romp ( )

Nice easy read. Can't remember if I got it for free or spent 99 cents. Doubt I'll try reading the others. ( )

Hochzeitsvorbereitungen sind an sich ja schon stressig, doch bei Kate Winton-Jones kommt es noch schlimmer. Bei der letzten Anprobe des Brautkleides passiert der Näherin ein Missgeschick. Sie sticht ihre Kundin und das Kleid bekommt einen Blutfleck. Man ist untröstlich. Die Näherin wird entlassen und verflucht das Kleid, bevor sie geht. Kate selbst findet das alles nicht so tragisch. Abends begegnet sie einem Mann, der sie beeindruckt. Als sie dann noch erfährt, was ihr Verlobter für Geheimnisse hat, flüchtet die Braut vor ihrer Hochzeit.
Das Buch liest sich leicht und ist unterhaltsam. Kate ist eine sympathische junge Frau, die sich dem Einfluss von außen ergeben hat, dann aber ihr Leben selbst in die Hand nimmt. Sie hat sich wohl etwas vorgemacht. Ihr Verlobter Edward brauchte sie als vorzeigbares Aushängeschild, um dann sein eigenes Ding weiter durchzuziehen. Da ist es gut, dass das Schicksal Nick in Kates leben geschubst hat.
Es hat Spaß gemacht, diese romantische Geschichte zu lesen. ( )

First novel in the series. Kate Winton-Jones is about to marry rich and handsome Edward Carnarvon III. But a curse is put on her dress at her final fitting. From there everything seems to go wrong for Kate.. or does it?

Not a bad read. It's your typical romance novel with nothing to make it really stand out. At times it was cute and cozy but other times I found things were blatantly convenient and they had me rolling my eyes. And this line stuck out for me - "Who got to be an adult and didn't even have a driver's license?" Lots of people. Don't be so ignorant. ( )
