Savor the moment nora roberts pdf free download
Whether it be their business, upcoming weddings or even their own weddings. I love how they stand up for each other, always ready to lend a helping hand or a shoulder to cry on. Parker, Emma, Laurel and Mac continue to be one of my favorite group of friends in contemporary romance. What can I say that I haven't already about this series?
It is pure unadulterated girlie awesomeness. Weddings, love, friendships, romance, and food. Can you go wrong with that combination? Nope siree, there's nothing you can do to mess that up. I love that you don't have to think too much in this series.
There is nothing going on in it other than love. No bad guys. No vampires. Just regular people falling in love with each other Sweet and romantic, I'm enjoying this series. Not much happens except love and that is nice to read every once in awhile. Relaxing to read and enjoy, like an unexpected vacation. I absolutely love these books. Having already read the first two I had been anticipating reading this one.
Laurel and Del are people that lots of people can relate to, Del being Laurel's best friends brother makes their relationship have its ups and downs but they make it work. Plus the added details included about Parker, Mac, and Emma that liven up and add a loving familial quality to the lives of these characters is something that l a lot of books often overlook.
For Laurel, creating the perfect cake for each new bride and groom is more than a matter of pride - it's art. She's thrilled to be working with her three best friends at Vows, their wedding planning company. The fly in her icing? Ivy league lawyer Delaney Brown, the brother of one of her partners.
Laurel's tired of being treated like a little sister by the guy she finds most edible - but when she takes things out of sister-land, can she handle the heat in the kitchen?
Third in the Brides Quartet, this is predictable fare that still manages to be light, fun and exactly what's called for on a rainy, stay-at-home with a book, cup of tea and a cat-filled-lap afternoon. Love this series! Love this story! I believe that Laurel's story captures the way many working class women have felt while dating.
This book captures the true essence of dating someone who has always been a friend. This book is wonderful as the third in a quartet but would stand alone as well. Cannot wait for Parker's book! Working her magic on different pastries was easier than facing the feelings she had for Parkers brother Delaney Brown had ever been. Knowing each other for years and having always thought of all four of the girls as his sisters, Del had a difficult time believing what he was starting to feel for Laurel.
Book 3 ….. Saw this one coming a mile away or at least two books away. But is was still a wonderfully written addition to the Bride Quartet series. Knowing the characters as much as we get to know them by the third book makes some things almost too obvious. Love how all the guys are friends and they all pitch in to help the girls obviously friends do their jobs as the wedding extraordinaire that they are.
Loved the cakes too, mouth watering just to hear about some of them. For the next book, Happy Ever After, yeah it is obvious who is going to match up with Parker, but half the fun will be getting there.
Nice to see what's going on with the Quartet, but I found the third lacking. Roberts assumed you were reading the third right after the second in the series, so characters and situations aren't really explained. Not a lot of depth or explanation. Pleasant installment in the Brides Quartet. Well-written but very little conflict or significant issues to be resolved by the two chief romantic protagonists. The most interesting thing was the descriptions of fancy weddings and fancy wedding cakes.
The further adventures of Mackensie, Parker, Laurel and Emmaline. Mackensie and Emmaline are happy in their relationships and this is the story of Laurels romance. She has to work out if it's worth the heartache to find out if Parker's Brother Del is interested in her, the chemistry between them is getting too hot to ignore. Summary 1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts cordially invites you to meet childhood friends Parker, Emma, Laurel, and Mac - the founders of Vows, one of Connecticut's premier wedding planning companies.
Laurel McBane has always relied on her friends for support, especially when her dream of attending culinary school was almost ruined by her parents' financial problems. Now Laurel is repaying the kindness of her friends by creating extravagantly luscious tiers of cakes and other confectionary delights that add the perfect touch to their clients' weddings. As for romance, Laurel believes in it - in theory.

Loved each and every part of this book. Ooo, this place looks fun!
Let's go! Plus, this book wasn't quite as bad as the first two. The female was good. I liked her. Plus, s Let's face it, Addie's intervention didn't work and there is no stopping me now from finishing this crappy series.
Plus, she makes cakes and desserts - I like cakes and desserts. Birthdays and interventions. I've had too many of both to count. That has nothing to do with me being drunk, either, so shut up! So, like I said, Laurel, our girl is the cake maker for the wedding business that this series is about. She has been in love with her best friend's brother since they were kids, but he sees her as a little sister.
She decides to show him that she isn't sisterly at all by kissing him and then he comes back to her with a well thought out plan for them to start dating. They did, and that was that. There was about as much heat between these two as there is between two lizards. Anyway, there is something else going on in this series that I NEED to ask any of my east coast friends about: Do y'all actually use the phrase, "Oh boy" when you are excited about something?
I've never heard anyone use it in my life, but Nora Roberts always has her characters say it. So does Janet Evanovich. Is this a regional thing or an old person thing? Because, when I read it, I am thinking that only a really old person would say that.
Yeah, that old. So, let me know if you happen to have read my review, made it this far down without dying of boredom, and actually give a crap about satisfying the curiosity of some crackpot in Texas.
Anyway, it only sucked a bit. The next one is SURE to be better. View all 14 comments. Fell far below my expectations. I really had high hopes for this book given that the previous two installments of this series amazingly hit the mark for me. But sadly, as far as I can tell, there was not much of a romantic spark between Delaney and Laurel here.
And frankly, if there had been any chemistry between them, it would have felt totally forced. The romance aspect fell flat in my opinion and the dialogue between Delaney and Laurel was slightly lackluster. However, I Fell far below my expectations. However, I absolutely enjoyed an unconditional love and true friendship between these four ladies.
Since I started reading this series, I saw no sign that she could be such an unpleasant character to read about. But when I finally got to her own story, I found that she managed to annoy and bore me in equal measure. For me, she came across more like a bitter, sullen, and difficult woman. Delaney was an ok hero but there was nothing particularly remarkable about him.
It might be because he was somehow overshadowed by the other characters. I just wish there were more depth to his character. I felt like the ending was a bit rushed and unsatisfying. It could have been better though. To tell you the truth, reading this one felt more like a chore than a pleasure to get through.

Laurel was a bit harsher than him, but her bouts of temper felt forced to me because they were irrational and came out of nowhere. Okay, that is known to happen in Romancelandia, but that behavior is usually associated with a character who's also irrational - and that wasn't Laurel's case. So, all in all, this was a slightly better than average read to me, mostly because I enjoyed watching the friends' dynamics.
Del and Laurel's romance was kind of meh. I was happy with their HEA, but I wouldn't be devastated if they had decided to stay just friends. Now I have a long wait until Happy Ever After , the last book in the series.
I really hope it's worth the wait and the series ends with a bang. View all 17 comments. May 20, Carrie rated it it was ok Shelves: humorous , contemporary , read , chick-lit.
It was an okay story overall, and I liked the characters, although I did get tired of Laurel at times. Mostly, though, I got stuck on the "snappy dialog" that made everyone sound like characters out of a TV sit com or Rom Com movie.
Not only did everyone in the book respond with one or two word phrases, but everyone sounded identical.
Even the older Mrs. Grady spoke mainly in predicates. Some of the dialog was funny and clev 2. Some of the dialog was funny and clever, but it all sounded completely scripted, like the actors on a Disney channel tween show.
So no matter how cute the story was, I was always completely distracted by dialog and the fact that no one talks that way in real life. I know we don't talk in complete sentences all the time, but take a look at the book. Everyone answers in weird sentence fragments. And, after 3 books, I'm over the "heart-warming groups of loyal best girlfriends. Everyone is so perfect and makes all these perfectly wonderful decisions.
I also got tired of the repeated descriptions of the characters workouts. I can maybe see describing the cakes, or flowers, but Parker's exercise routine? View all 8 comments. This is probably my least favorite installment into this series and my least favorite couple, and I still really enjoy both the book and the couple. Laurel is an amazing pastry chef. The wedding cakes she designs for her clients are beautiful enough to make angels weep, and are always lovingly personalized to each couple.
Delaney has always viewed Laurel as another sister; or at least, he did, until she completely destroyed that viewpoint by kissing the sisterly affection right out of him. The relationship they build from the ashes of that familial fondness is sweet and funny. Laurel is incredibly sarcastic, and not the most optimistic of women. Her surliness is at odds with her sunny blonde hair and cornflower blue eyes. Same goes for Del.
All of that being said, I still devoured this book cake pun intended. View 2 comments. And yet another Nora Roberts winner in this amazing series.
And this time, though it still revolved around the friendship between Mac, Emma, Laurel and Parker, the story was mostly about the romance between life-long friends. So the switch held much more danger and possible obstacles. For the And yet another Nora Roberts winner in this amazing series. So the same fears and worries as with Emma and Jack were there, but much more augmented, because of that long er friendship.
But it was beautifully done, if you ask me, much better than in Bed of Roses , especially since the hero Del had no obvious and well-known commitment issues Jack had.
And that is the biggest problem I had with Laurel. And too stubborn to listen But, her love for Del was there, and I forgave her. First, it was because Laurel was more reserved by nature, preferring to solve her problems on her own and second, there was no big rift between her and Del to demand an intervention in the first place.
Sure, she made a mess with her stubbornness and refusal to listen, but it was quickly resolved. And who resolved it? Del, of course. He was over protective, self-assured, caring, loving, tender, funny, sexy my mouth watered reading the pond scene , and romantic the awwwwww-factor in the ending was all him.
I cannot wait to read about him and Parker. Romantic, funny, sexy, sensual, light-weight, emotion-engaging A truly awesome read. Okay, this one was so good. I love love loved how prickly Laurel is. Del is filled with good intentions, protection, and logic. Plot wise, it was good. I loved the slow build up of their relationship and the push and pull between them.
It seems so casual and comfortable and I loved every bit. The conflict is at the very end and lasts a couple of pages. Overall, this has just been a delight and exactly what I wanted to read.

This book was neat I can't wait to listen to the last book This book was neat I can't wait to listen to the last book Nov 17, kari rated it it was amazing Shelves: , 5-star.
I love the way Nora Roberts crafts her characters. You're sure to fall in love with them while they fall in love with each other. This third installment of The Bride Quartet doesn't disappoint in any way. Del and Laurel verbally spar with each other and the dialogue snaps as you'll laugh at their witty comebacks at one another.
While Mac and Carter continue to be my favorite couple of this series, this comes a very close second. Laurel is one tough cookie, to use a baking analogy, and she has love I love the way Nora Roberts crafts her characters. Laurel is one tough cookie, to use a baking analogy, and she has loved Del all her life, finally she decides to do something about it.
In comic retaliation, Del steals her shoes you'll have to read it to understand all of this. The love story is wonderful, but what makes this series so enjoyable is the four friends and the relationship they all have and the friendships between the men in their lives as they get to know one another.
The scenes where the four women are together, discussing everything from weddings, their own as well as others, to their love lives, troublesome parents, etc are often laugh out loud funny. One last thing, I love all the initial-speak that the girls do together and in this book, you'll learn a new one: HJS. Oh, and even though we aren't yet to his story, I'm already a teeny bit in lurve with Mal.
