Here comes the bride . . . there goes the groom. Penny Bracket waited two years to marry dream man Bram Shiraz. Then on the morning of the Big Day, while she's trying on her veil, Penny receives the worst two-line letter of her life: "Penny, I can't go through with it. Sorry, Bram." Penny's hurt and upset. But Esther, Penny's divorced mom, wants Bram's head on a platter. So Mom ambushes the cold-footed coward before he hot-foots it out of town, bonks him on the head with a champagne bottle, and spirits him away to a hidden room in her gargantuan mansion in Short Hares, New Jersey. Esther doesn't want much. All Bram has to do is write personal, heartfelt apologies to each of the two hundred disappointed wedding guests . . . and eat every mouthful of the very expensive gourmet wedding feast that has gone to waste. Then he'll be free to leave. Penny doesn't want Bram tortured. She just wants answers to "why" . . . and maybe a little revenge. Will she discover her runaway groom is locked away in the attic? Will Bram's widowed father--handsome tough-guy Keith Shiraz--be able to locate his missing son . . . and maybe seduce Esther Bracket in the bargain? Will Bram be able to maintain his athletic figure after consuming two hundred entrées and thousands of baby quiches? Read on!… (mais)

Did not like. Could not even finish reading it.

I've read and enjoyed Valerie Frankel's books in the past, but was disappointed with this one. Very contrived and over the top. Almost like the author was trying TOO hard to be funny. I kept reading thinking it would get better, but it didn't. If you like your books realistic, this is not the book for you. But if you like your chick lit fluffy, give it a whirl.

And the numerous typos were very distracting - didn't anyone proofread this book after it was sent through spell-check? ( )

This story had a funny, original premise - the mother of a jilted bride kidnaps the groom-to-be and holds him hostage, making him eat every bit of the wedding entrees and cake, fill out address labels to return wedding gifts and write letters of apology to wedding guests. There were tons of laugh-out-loud moments, as I've found in all of Valerie Frankel's books.

However, she also has a tendency to add sexually vulgar scenes and dialogue. I find this jolts me out of the story and distracts me. It's unnecessary and rather crude and unpleasant. ( )
