I have read quite a few of Sheila O’Flanagan’s books now and I am always impressed by the depth of her female characters. They are not your silly carbon-copy women. Delphine is no exception. The main character of Three Weddings and a Proposal will have you cheering her on at every point. She is such a great character and grows so much throughout the novel, it is impossible to not love her.
Three Weddings and a Proposal is a doorstopper of a book and it is such a joy to lose yourself in it. I also loved the fact some of the book is set in Mallorca as it felt like I was on holiday. With all of its twists and turns and fantastic characters, it is impossible not to love Three Weddings and a Proposal. It is an entertaining book full of depth, warmth and happiness. Loved it.
Three Weddings and a Proposal (HB, £20, Headline Review) will become a much-loved staple for readers of Sheila’s books. In her classic style, it’s set between Ireland and Spain, continually transporting the reader straight to the sparkling seas and sun-baked streets of Mallorca. Sheila grapples with the complexities of dilemma and change, gets to the heart of empowerment for women and champions finding your feet. Her books always feature a strong female protagonist, are always fun with characters you really care about and have a big dollop of warmth throughout.
Delphine has worked hard for her success, but her opinionated family aren’t convinced that her lifestyle could truly make her happy. While at a wedding, Delphine hears some shocking news that will make her revaluate all that matters to her – will love, family and compromise come before her career, security and independence?
Out on 20th May.
