BOOK REVIEW: That's Amore!

Are you ready for a great novella of love stories by today's hot romance authors? Janelle Denison, Tori Carrington and Leslie Kelly bring you a wonderful collection of Love that's not exactly American-style in That's Amore! Cultural family traditions are intertwined into each story - from a Hawaiian arranged marriage custom, to a Greek wedding and then onto a Chicago style Italian family wedding.

STORIES INCLUDE:
Meet the Parents by Janelle Denison: Leila, a hawaiian daughter is expected to marry a Hawaiian groom that her parents select for her. But, Leila has plans of her own.....and the groom is a California bad boy. Can he persuade Leila's parents that he's the one for their daughter?
I Do, Don't I? by Tori Carrington: Efi is ready to marry her childhood sweetheart Nick - in just one week. The only problem is - their families seem determined to keep them apart and turn the wedding into a Greek tragedy. Each chapter is another day leading up to the wedding day, or will there be a wedding?
There Goes the Groom by Leslie Kelly: Luke is engaged to 'a nice Italian Girl' (aka: bridezilla)...but when he ends up having to check on the wedding dress more than once (his fiancé just can't seem to make the appointments), he ends up falling for the dressmaker, Rachel, who is designing his fianceés bridal gown. The problem, he's engaged to be married and Rachel isn't Italian. What's a guy to do?

Love your site! I wish that I had know about it three years ago when I got married!

As a matter of fact my husband and I started our own business based on our experience with our wedding. We were coming out of the office of the courthouse where you pick up your "official" piece of paper i.e. marriage license and were SO very disappointed with the cold boring look of it. It wasn't romantic at all! So being creative people (my husband is an artist) we designed original oils and then produced 12"x16" prints of keepsake marriage certificates. Soon friends were asking for their own so it led us to create a website and now full company - Gallery of Love.

This brings me to my question for the folks at www.bestweddings.com,
(I'm VERY new to blogging so if this is not the right forum for this I apologize) would you be interested in our company offering 3 (unpersonalized) certificates as part of your monthly contest prizes? Please feel free to review our site www.galleryoflove.net and give me your feedback.

And for other wedding bloggers, please check us out too, we are still new and would like to know what brides think of us. What are we doing right? Where have we missed the mark? We've already made changes due to customer feedback - changed our marriage certificates to reflect more romanitc instead of traditional wording etc.

Thanks so much!
