I had previously wrote (http://ladyjansneverland.blogspot.com/2009/03/marcelli-bride-susan-mallery.html) about reading "The Marcelli Bride", one of the novels under the Marcelli Sisters Trilogy. I have since read "The Marcelli Princess" which tells the story of Mia Marcelli and finished reading "The Sparkling One" last night and would be reading " The Sassy One" about Francesca Marcelli next. I have really enjoyed reading the stories under this series and reading it really makes me dream of eating Grandma Tessa delicious pasta mentioned constantly in the novel, living in the family winery with constant free flow of red wine.....what a relaxing life that would be hehe.....
"The Sparkling One" is the first book of the series and there were some funny moments in the story which i couldn't help laughing while reading. A party planner extraordinaire, Katie Marcelli loves her big, boisterous family -- even when their chronic matchmaking drives her crazy! In the Marcelli household, fine wine and good food are as celebrated as true love, so when her eighteen-year-old sister announces her engagement, Katie promises her the perfect wedding.
There's only one hitch: the father of the groom, Zach Stryker, who is adamantly opposed to his son marrying so young. Now, despite her instant attraction to the handsome, arrogant attorney, Katie must approach with caution: Zach, who hired Katie for a major fundraiser, holds the fate of her business in his hands -- and how can she trust a man who is willing to break her sister's heart? It will take a passionate battle of wills to determine if wedding bells will ring for a Marcelli bride, and to unlock the deepest desires -- for family, love, and home -- inside a strong-willed man's heart.
