Recent Reads: The Perfect Dress by Louisa Leaman
The Perfect Dress is about Fran, who has a wedding dress shop unlike any other. It's full of previously worn wedding dresses, and Fran the experiences and wonderful lives of the previous owners will enhance the newly weds lives.
Fran does a lot of research on her dresses, and doesn't like a dress from a bad relationship to go on to a new bride. She wants to match the right dress with the right bride, and wants the dress to bring something out of them that they didn't know they had.
Fran finds a wedding dress in a house clearance, and feels there is so much about it that she has to have it, even though she's not convinced it's a dress with a good history. She clashes with Rafe, the son of the former bride, but she has to know more about the dress.
This was a romance with a touch of fantasy in that Fran sees visions of what the bride was feeling and going through. I enjoyed it as a fast paced romp, with flawed characters that brought out the worst in each other.
