Jessica Gordon is now on tour with CLP Blog Tours and Becoming Mrs. Walsh. Ooh, this novel. I am getting married myself this September, so I could instantly relate with Shoshana Thompson. We are brides-to-be, we are close in age - but she is a tad different from me in that she is marrying into one of Washington D.C.'s wealthiest families. There is a lot of pressure on her in becoming a Walsh - the clothes, the makeup, the events, not to mention her grand wedding. While Shoshana believes she loves Andrew and he is the perfect man for her, she starts to get feelings for someone else...someone she definitely cannot have romantic feelings toward.This book was so juicy, and the ending had me practically salivating. I loved the Walsh family, from the brothers to the sisters-in-law to the mom. Shoshana is relatable but also likeable - she's someone about to take a big step and gets scared when her feelings about her impending marriage and husband seem off. If you're a chick lit fan, you will be green with envy reading about some of the designer clothes and shoes the Walsh's have and the trips they gallivant off to at a moment's notice. And I found it fun that Shoshana is from Iowa and there are scenes with her family back in that state - I live in Iowa myself. Seriously, this book was right up my alley! But let's get back to the ending - I was happily reading along, wondering what would happen and being on my toes, then coming to terms with Sho's final decision and being happy for her when wham - there is definitely a sequel coming out and I can't wait to read it! You must pick this one up!
