Finding Melodie and The Wedding Special Boxset by Laura Rossi – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Melodie Boxset by Laura Rossi
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This special edition boxset contains two novels, featuring Melodie and ‘office guy’, (Isaac), and I was pleased to be able to ‘binge read’ them as the sequel picks up from the end of book one, so I didn’t have to wait to find out if the couple got their HEA. This opposites attract romance is an enjoyable and engaging read, with some really touching moments and then some laugh out loud ones. Set in London, the author has made the setting come alive through the descriptive narrative, making me feel immersed in the story. The quirky characters and intriguing storyline had me gripped from start to finish. Melodie, is a pink haired artsy-hippie, who plays guitar and sings under The London Eye, she always notices a guy that she’s named ‘office guy’, who she catches staring at her whilst she’s playing.
One day he actually walks up to her and they meet, Issac is her exact opposite, he’s a good, clean cut guy who works in an office, and definitely does not have pink hair. However, the pair becomes friends and then they fall in love, in book one, and then in book two the couple, who really are perfect for one another, are getting married. Unfortunately when their parents meet things do not exactly go to plan, as it seems not everyone is as happy about the couple marrying as they are. I loved Melodie and Issac, their chemistry sizzles off the page and I loved how their relationship developed throughout the two novels, and I really enjoyed their interactions with each other. A real page turner and a great read for some escapism!
