Bella couldn’t be happier that two of her long-feuding relatives have finally admitted their love for one another and are getting married. Their forties-style wedding is sure to be a night to remember. But when the Rossi house begins to fill up with family from Italy–and an old mobster from New Jersey–life starts to get complicated.
Will a friend from the past drive the happy couple apart once more? And will Bella ever have time to think of her own rapidly approaching wedding amid the chaos?
My take:~
It Had to be You is the final installment of Janice Thompson’s romantic comedy series, Weddings by Bella. If you want your fix of romance, weddings, family ties and a little chaos in between these books will hit the spot perfectly. Bella and DJ’s journey to reach the aisle is engaging and Janice’s adept hand at humour will have you smiling with each new chapter. The boisterous and loving Rossi family is so appealing you will wish they lived next door, if only to sample Rosa’s lasagne or tiramisu! It Had to Be You is a joyful and uplifting tale that will brighten your day and have you keeping an eye out for a DJ of your own!!
Available May 2010 at your favorite bookseller from Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group.
