The Wedding Cake Wish, Little Duck Pond Cafe - Rosie Green

 

Wedding excitement is in the air! With their big day approaching, Fen has her heart set on a gorgeous, intimate celebration with not much fuss at all. But strong-minded mother-of-the-bride Marjery seems to have considerably grander plans. There's also the small problem of a missing best man, and when Fen tasks Hudson Holmes and Ruby Watkiss with the job of tracking him down, their investigations unearth far more secrets than they bargained for. Will the Big Day go ahead in the light of such dramatic revelations? Can a wedding cake wish save the day? One thing's for sure – this will definitely be a wedding to remember!

My Review:

I’ve been a fan of Rosie’s and particularly ‘The Little Duck Pond Café’ series for a long time now and for me, it’s just going from strength to strength with each book. ‘The Wedding Cake Wish’ is the seventeenth book yet, the second instalment of the sub-trilogy of Ruby and Hudson’s cosy crime mysteries that neatly fits within ‘The Little Duck Pond Café series. It’s genius by Rosie Green – a great way to diversify whilst in-keeping with the usual feel of the books we love so much.

It’s the lead up to Fen’s wedding so it’s starting to become a little stressful especially as her Mum is taking over. More concerning is that the best man goes missing so our favourite investigators Ruby and Hudson get involved. I love the chemistry and dynamics between these two characters; they work so well together so I was very keen to see them solve this one!

With many threads being interwoven into this story, it was enthralling – I couldn’t put it down. I felt for Fen and desperately wanted her to speak up and get the wedding she wanted; I was keen to see why the best man had felt he had to disappear and more than anything I wanted to see if Ruby and Hudson realised how perfect for each other they are.

You could read this as a standalone book but I would highly urge you to catch up with the rest in the series too. I look forward to these books, always keen to see what’s happening in the lives of characters that feel like friends.

Brilliant – I can’t wait for the next!
