A Wedding at Sandy Cove: Part 3 by Bella Osborne

I received an advance review copy for free thanks to NetGalley and Avon Books and I am leaving this review voluntarily

Ella has always held onto her faith in romance. Being in the business of weddings, how could she not? But her belief in true love has been well and truly shattered, by the people she trusted most.

To make matters worse, the successful launch of her bridal business has been sabotaged by the spread of false and nasty rumours about her. But who could have done such a terrible thing?

With her best friend’s wedding now only days away, it seems the worst has happened when a last-minute beauty treatment turns the bride’s skin a bright shade of frog green.

The great thing about the book coming out in small instalments is that they are very quick to read. As with the previous instalments this book doesn't disappoint - it is difficult to not put any spoilers in as we are over halfway through the book. The book as a whole is an enjoyable read that must be read in order to avoid any confusion. I am so excited to finally get to know the ending of the book in the final instalment.

Rating 4/5

A fabulous third part to A Wedding at Sandy Cove. I’m so looking forward to part four to see how it ends and who gets their happy ever after! I love Bella Osborne’s books and she never fails to deliver.

Great beach read! Perfect for fans of wedding reads and part of a great series

This is part three of a four part serial.

Ella’s dreams lie in tatters…

Ella has always held onto her faith in romance. Being in the business of weddings, how could she not? But her belief in true love has been well and truly shattered, by the people she trusted most.

With her best friend’s wedding now only days away, it seems the worst has happened when a last-minute beauty treatment turns the bride’s skin a bright shade of frog green.

Then something much bigger puts the whole wedding in jeopardy.

Will Brittany finally get to say ‘I do’? And how will Ella react when an unexpected guest arrives to turn everything on its head: the ex who broke her heart…

The third instalment of this totally addictive summer read, full of laugh-out-loud moments, romance and friendship. Fans of Cathy Bramley, Katie Fforde and Milly Johnson will be totally hooked from the very first page.

The fun, laughter, mysteries and on/off romances continue in part three of this four part book where I found myself cheering Ella on and hissing and booing the horrible villain whose name I shan't reveal. There were so many laugh out loud moments in the book and the hen night was especially ' eventful'. Wonderful characters and this warm, feel-good story was just so endearing. Of course it ended on a cliffhanger and I can't wait to read the final installment. I'm just loving this story! My thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me the opportunity to read and voluntarily review this ARC.

Ah these little installments are only like wine. They keep getting better and better with time!

Synopsis –

It’s only a few days left until Brittany’s wedding and Ella needs to buckle up. Also her business is just starting off, but unfortunately she needs to handle certain false rumours! Things are going well with Kit, but will they embark on a more serious relationship? How will Ella handle running into her ex Todd at the wedding?

Review –

Oh I loved the “excuses” Kit kept making to meet with Ella at every opportunity. I was getting ready to swoon and cheer for them, keeping everything crossed that they would move forward from “just friends zone”, but I had to warn myself “not so fast”! Nonetheless, I am looking forward to find out more about this lovely couple. Now that Ella’s ex Todd is in the picture, I think this is going to be an interesting play out!

I welcomed getting more of Lucy’s perspective. Her case is getting heated and now with her mom crashing in her place, Lucy seems to on the verge of losing her sanity. However, bumping into Eric, the best man at the wedding, I hope Lucy finds some much needed stability and love, unlike her flaky flings in the past.

I found myself rooting for Ella at how she handled the “sabotage” crisis of her business. I was grinning with a wicked smirk, impressed to see how she faced off her problems head on. Full on kickass!

The wedding was really well pictured in the gorgeous beach setting of Sandy Cove. It was fun, sweet and filled with some hilarious moments, that lightened up my mood.

That ending again leaves me craving for the last and final piece of this wonderful and heart-warming novel!

Oh my goodness Kit come back! Todd what are you doing? Part three is just brilliant and it just keeps getting better. Bella manages to somehow finish each part at just the right place to keep you wanting more! I have to laugh at the description and colour of the bridesmaids dresses. Made me remember my high school uniform that was the same colour. And what a shocker from Jane! Didn’t see that coming. Can’t wait for the concluding part

In this third part of A Wedding at Sandy Cove, the tension is starting to mount between Kit and Ella. We also attend Brittany's wedding to Grant. Looking forward to part 4.

Ella has finally launched her Wedding dress alterations business and after the success of the launch party she is feeling optimistic. Unfortunately she soon realises that something is wrong and after some very strange phone calls comes to the conclusion that someone is out to sabotage her new business.
Her personal life is also far from smooth but Ella knows she needs to keep calm and focus on her best friend, Brittany’s wedding.
There are some genuine laugh out loud moments but also some that are more poignant. Read it in one go, loved it. Really need part 4 now, I need to know how this ends!

Oh Auntie Rita!!!! 🤣🤣 what a place to stop, it’s all kicking off at the wedding reception.
My heart goes out to Kit and Ella, so desperately drawn to each other but not able to take those last steps. However I am loving the braver Ella. I’m really curious where the Lucy storyline is going to go. The final part can’t come soon enough.

This book is so good and maybe a bit difficult to read in separately issued "Parts", since I am so interested in the plot and want to know the outcome at the end, but reading it in parts also forces me to truly appreciate the author’s work and think about all that happens in one part, before I read the next one.

I am enjoying this book so much. It is filled with great characters, and I really love or dislike them. When a reader is so moved by the characters of a book, you know the author is wonderfully gifted. I am so hoping for a happy ever after for all of them (except one, the ex-boyfriend is not included, maybe one other also). A great story has to include someone not likable and Bella Osborne has created two characters that fit that bill. Both need to mature a lot, and I am not speaking of in age, but in personal responsibility.

I am enjoying reading about the close friendship of Ella, Brittany and Lucy. That is a core part of the story, and a friendship like theirs is a rare and blessed gift. So much happened in this part of the book, and these three support and balance each other to stay stable and secure.

I cannot wait to be able to read the final part four. I have some thoughts as to what might happen, and I am definitely hoping for a happy ending!

A huge thank you Avon Books UK and NetGalley for giving me the immense pleasure of reading the advance reader copy, with no obligation to write a review. My review is written freely as a hobby, and is totally my own opinion, not influenced by receiving the ARC.

This book does not disappoint. It’s great to read the next part and catch up with Ella and her friends. So much happening with relationships and secrets. A good fun summer read. I cannot wait for part four.

Read in one sitting, this is the third part in the series.
Ella is now ready to build her new business but is temporarily set back by malicious reviews and emails sent to other wedding shops. It doesn't take her long to work out who the culprit is.
Kit and Ella seem to be growing closer until an accident involving his nephew puts them on the back burner.
Lucy is still wondering who her stalker is and there is a development on the divorce case she is working on.
Brittany gets her big day.
Really enjoyed this part. Everything is starting to come together.
Looking forward to part four when hopefully Kit and Ella get together.
Thanks to Netgalley and Avon Books for the ARC in return for an honest review.

aagghh another cliff hanger, I hope part 4 isn't too far away, I really enjoying these characters and they way they are evolving, cant wait for the final part.

Loved every page of this part, I can’t believe we have to wait for the last part! It was well written and so warm! Eagerly looking forward to the final part of the series.

Great read, catching up with Ella and Lucy. Can't wait for the final part to see what happens for them both.

The problem with reading a serial such as this is the gap between the two parts and remembering where the story had been left. however within a couple of pages I was back in the story. There is a mixture of funny moments (a facepack party in particular), touches of romance and some more downbeat parts to give the bok some balance but again I really enjoyed this book. The only downside is that part 4, which I can't wait to read, will be the final instalment of this great series.
I received an advance copy of this book from the publisher through Netgalley, however this did not influence my review of the book.

Thank you NetGalley, Bella Osborne and Avon Books UK for A Wedding at Sandy Cove: Part 3. This is my personal review.
I am so hooked on this four-part serial with this one being part 3.
Ella has fabulous friends and a business she just started on her own. There is so much happening in her life, but she feels there is something missing.
Bella Osborne has written another smash hit for me. I can not wait to read the next part in this serial. As soon as I read the first word, I know that I will not finish until the end. And the end of this part was a real cliff hanger for me!

A really Brilliant Third part of the story, so many twist and turns along the way.

I am really looking to see how the story develops and how the final instalment brings everything together and see if there are any happy endings.

I would recommend this book to people who love a feel good read.

I was so looking forward to part three and it certainly didn’t disappoint I devoured it in one sitting!
I love Ella’s story and the developing on/relationship with the lovely Kit and can’t wait to see what develops in part four!
Brittany’s long awaited wedding happens, loved the wild antics of aunty Rita and the interactions of Lucy and the best man, not so keen on the appearance of the loathed Todd/toad,
Wandas actions although not unexpected are so mean to Lucy and I was so glad she had Lucy to help fight her corner!
So excited to see what happens in part four.
Thank you netgalley for this early read.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for an early review copy.

In part three Ella’s launch for her bridal business was a success but then, it took a different direction.

Not long now till Brittany, Ella’s friend’s wedding, she hopes that the day goes well without more drama.

Ella gets to know more about Kit and are trying to solve their parents love lives.

I can’t wait to find out how the book ends.

I recommend it.
