Chef Flora Deare; royal wedding caterer! When Flora’s childhood friend Hope asks her to design the menu for her upcoming royal wedding, Flora is quick to say yes. Hasebury Hall, the wedding venue may be dilapidated but it has all the kitchen space she needs, and she’ll happily make do even though the Hall’s owner and brooding brother-of-the-bride, Max Kennard is constantly underfoot. She’s known Max for years. Had a crush on him in her teens. Might have the teeniest wee soft spot for him still…

When his sister Hope announces that she’s going to marry a prince, Max is taken aback to discover that the royal wedding will not take place in the majestic principality of San Michele, but at their run-down Wiltshire family home, Hasebury Hall. Now Max has to fix up the manor, let royals and security officials have the run of the place… and find a suitable woman to accompany him to the wedding and all the other ridiculous events that surround it.

Max is single, Flora’s single. They could pair up and go together. What harm can a little pretence do if all it involves is a glamorous trip to San Michele and smiling together at the wedding itself? Apparently, a lot… Soon, it’s hard to remember what’s real and what’s not.

Such a fun book!

I enjoyed every moment of this book. It was wonderfully written, with laugh-out-loud moments. I ignored everything else I was meant to do and just kept reading, which was delicious and something I haven't done for a long time. I'm now following this author and waiting impatiently for the next story.

A gentle contemporary love story

Reviewed in Australia on 15 December 2017

I loved this story so much! Book two in the multi-author Royal Wedding series, The Baronet’s Wedding Engagement is a lovely warm story that had me involved and caring straight away. It can be read as a stand alone or as part of the series.
Impoverished baronet Max Kennard of Hasebury Hall and chef Flora Deare seem at first glance to be impossibly mismatched. He is a man of simple tastes, happy to get by on instant coffee and microwaved dinners while Flora is a culinary perfectionist. Despite their differences, the chemistry between these two is electric. Watching their relationship develop was an absolute pleasure.
I also loved the animals in this story - Max’s dogs Bella and Ted, and Flora’s cantankerous and elderly cat Sweetie, who is the reason Flora is living in the village of Combe St Philip instead of London, where she dreams of opening a restaurant.
Despite having a royal theme, this is really a gentle contemporary love story. The well-paced plot kept me hooked and emotionally attached. I’d like to see more from author Jessica Hart.

The Baronet's Wedding Engagement

Reviewed in Australia on 19 October 2017

In the second installment of the Royal Wedding Invitations series, Hope is getting ready for her wedding and she has decided to have it at her family home, Hasebury Hall, instead of the palace in San Michele. This puts her brother Max on edge. He has a lot to do to get the manor worthy of a royal wedding.

Hope’s friend, Flora Deare, is doing the catering and she needs to use a big kitchen to practice in. So, Hope gave Flora permission to use the kitchen at the manor, even if it does annoy her newly single brother, Max. When Flora was younger, she used to have a crush on Max. The more time she spends with him now, that crush seems to be making a return.

When Max finds out the Crown Princess is having fits about the seating arrangements because he doesn’t have a date for the royal engagement announcement in San Michele, he decides to ask Flora to be his date. They both have to be there anyway. Why not pretend to be a couple? But will they be able to remember this is only to appease the Crown Princess or will they realize they just might be a perfect couple after all?

I am really enjoying this series so far. The author did a good job writing this book and keeping my attention from start to finish.

Country village opposites attract romance

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 December 2020

Three and a half stars.

This is the second in a series of four books written by different authors centring around the marriage of an English woman called Hope Kennard to Jonas Reval, the Prince of a small country called San Michele. Max is Hope's older brother and owner of Hasebury Hall in Wiltshire, since he inherited the property he has done his best to extricate the family from the financial difficulties caused by their profligate/criminal father. He's just about solvent but the announcement that his sister wants to get married in the local church and have the reception at Hasebury Hall has thrown a spanner in the works. Max will do anything for his little sister but this is going to stretch him financially and socially.

Flora Deare is a renowned chef, particularly of pastries and one of Hope's best friends, usually based in London she came home to look after her grandparents until they died, running her cake business from their cramped kitchen. She has been chosen to cater the royal wedding and to facilitate matters she has moved her business into the Hall's spacious kitchens. Flora has always had a crush on Max but a curly-haired, curvaceous chef can't compare to the cool, leggy, ex-models like his wife that Max is used to date.

Max is a harassed, somewhat grumpy, single dad (can you say that if the children generally live with the mother?), drawn against his will to the effervescent Flora, distributor of real coffee and creator of delicious cakes, who lights up his gloomy Hall.

Flora feels like a frumpy, short, troll compared with the procession of sophisticated women that Max's ex-wife sets him up with, but she can't help but feel a frisson of something every time they get close.

When Hope tells Max he must have a plus-one for the wedding and pre-wedding celebrations in San Michele what could be simpler than going with Flora? And faking a relationship to satisfy Jonas' uptight sister-in-law isn't difficult? But with Max set on living in Wiltshire and Flora determined to return to London can this opposites-attract romance get off the ground?

I had a Kindle full of NetGalley ARCs to be read, plus loads of other books but after Saturday afternoon's announcement of London going into Tier 4 COVID restrictions (effectively cancelling my plans for Christmas Dinner with my parents), I was looking for something comforting, something gentle and life-affirming, and this was just the ticket.

Recommended if you are looking for a opposites-attract romance set in a picturesque village, with a royal wedding thrown in.

Delightful

A truly delightful romance from a favourite author. Max is one of those great English heroes - slightly grumpy, loves his dogs and his children, unable to quite shake off his ex despite the fact that she's happily married to someone else and faced with hosting his sister's marriage to a Royal prince, a situation that's way out of his comfort zone, Flora Fears comes to the rescue. But this is a solution guaranteed to disturb not just his life but change it forever. A joy from start to finish.

It may not be fair to rate this a 2, but romance is not my ‘thing’

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 February 2020

Verified Purchase

If you like romance, you will probably like this quirky offering. A royal wedding, a Manor House, animals, baking and Flora and Max in the lead roles. I couldn’t cope with the simmering kisses and lustful longing stuff from the outset and almost stopped reading, but I hate giving up on a book. If you like that sort of thing you’ll probably find it more engaging than I did.

Delightful problem-solving heroine who takes on a cooking contract for a friend and finds herself caught up in a royal occasion with "Disaster" written all over it. And the bride's brother is no help ... From cupcake to canapé, Flora Dear rocks!

A true love story with a tear.

I loved this so much.
I had tears fall for sweetie.
Lots of not telling how they feel.
You feel like you want to give one of them a kick up the bum.
I would say if you want a read that makes you feel good read on.
