A September Bride by Kathryn Springer
When Annie moves to Red Leaf, she’s ready to call the little town home. Deputy Jesse Kent can’t believe his mother has handed the keys to her bookshop over to a woman she met on the internet. Jesse has seen his mother taken advantage of before, and he decides to keep a close eye on this Annie Price. But when a close eye turns into a historical wedding reenactment with Jesse and Annie as the couple, make-believe nuptials quickly give way to real-life emotions.
When Deputy Jesse Kent comes home after a three week training course, he's appalled to learn that his mother has handed over the keys and management of her bookshop to Annie, a woman she met on an online book club. Determined to keep a close eye on Annie, he finds himself pulled into a historical wedding reenactment with Jessie and Annie as the couple. As they spend time together, Jesse is quickly won over by this friendly, loving, somewhat absent minded lady. I loved this sweet story about a girl who had a difficult life who gets the chance at a happily ever after.
An October Bride by Katie Ganshert
No one but Jake and Emma know the true reason they’re getting married — so Emma’s dying father can walk her down the aisle. While Jake and Emma plan an autumn wedding together, it becomes clear that their agreement has a few complications—the biggest being their true feelings for each other.
Emma Tate has a problem - she's seen her Dad's bucket list and it includes walking her down the aisle. The problem is her dad has cancer and doesn't have much time to make that happen AND Emma isn't engaged or even seeing someone! When she runs into her lifelong friend Jake Sawyer they hatch a plan to become engaged and get married in order to make her Dad's wish come true. The problem is the more time they spend together planning this wedding the more they struggle with their deception and with their true feelings for each other. I enjoyed this short novella in the Year of Weddings series. It's a fun, sweet, small hometown story with fun and quirky family and friends as supporting characters.
A November Bride by Beth K. Vogt
Having celebrated the big 3-0 by ending a relationship, Sadie is tired of romantic relationships-by-text. The only man she knows willing to put down his iPhone and have face-to-face conversations with her is Erik. It’s time to put a 21st-century twist on the Sadie Hawkins’ tradition of a woman going after her man. But when he realizes he’s fallen for her, can Erik convince Sadie his just-for-fun dates were the prelude to “‘til death do us part”?
Erik and Sadie have been best friends since high school. When Sadie gets dumped by text on her 30th birthday, she turns to the only man who has been constant in her life, her best friend Erik. Erik has commitment issues and only dates for 3-4 months before breaking up with, but remaining friends with, his girlfriends. When Sadie faces a choice in her career that could be life-changing, Erik decides that he is going to risk their friendship in order to show Sadie that he's the man for her. I loved this sweet romantic novella. It was fun to see these two connect romantically after being friends for so long. I also liked how both characters had friends who helped them get over their fears.

For starters, what attracted me to Autumn Brides was the author Kathryn Springer. I am fond of some of her other books and so I knew I'd love this one too.Autumn Brides is a Novella which contains 3 stories, A September Bride by Kathryn Springer, An October Bride by Katie Ganshert, and A November Bride by Beth K. Vogt. Each story is about a wedding that is to take place and each story is told in a way that captures you.In A September Bride, Annie Price is the town of Red Leaf's newest resident and soon is given a lot of responsibility that Deputy Jesse Kent can't believe. Jesse decides to keep a close eye on Annie, and eventually he and Annie are both volunteered to participate in the town's historical reenactment of a famous wedding, as the bride and the groom. Before you know it, these two have fallen in love!In An October Bride, a woman stumbles upon her dying father's bucket list, and see's at the very bottom, one thing that she could help him check off, "Walk Emma Down the Isle." Emma discusses this with her close friend Jake and Jake volunteers to marry Emma, but for pretend. One thing is for sure, Emma didn't want to pretend. Will she make it to the alter in time? Will Jake be her groom?In A November Bride, Sadie is turning 30 and tired of having boring relationships that don't seem to last.

Her friend Erik falls for her and together after 17 years of being friends and 3 dates, they've decided to jump the gun and get married during a surprise "engagement party"!What I loved the most about these stories was how heart warmingly realistic they all were and how each story was told from varying perspectives. At the end of each story, there is a series of Discussion Questions.*This book was sent to me complimentary in exchange for my honest review from LookBookBloggers.*
