The Rom Com Movie Club (The Rom Com Movie Club Book 1) by Bernadette Marie – Review by Jennifer Gordon

The Rom Com Movie Club – Book One by Bernadette Marie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

An enjoyable and engaging contemporary romance which kept me happily turning the pages. Lisa, Mindy, Ruby, and Tina gather once a month for a ‘Rom Com Movie Club’ night, and I loved each of these likeable and relatable characters, and their friendship really came across in the narrative. Lisa didn’t have a stable home growing up and her friends have become her family, but she still didn’t really know what a happily ever after looked liked, only in the films they watched. Although Lisa is used to having obstacles thrown at her, she never imagined that by finding the man of her dreams, it would cause a rift with her best friend. Meanwhile Ryan had returned home to live with his parents whilst looking for his next opportunity.
However, he never expected that following his brother, and joining in with his future sister in laws girly ‘Rom Com Movie Club’ night, that he would fall head over heels for Lisa. Although it’s not the best timing for falling in love with her best friend’s soon to be brother in law, just before the wedding, Lisa is surprised when her friend assumes that Lisa is out to ruin her wedding. Having fallen in love with a man who loves her back, Lisa must choose between her fairy tale ending, or her friend who has always been there whenever needed. This was a heartwarming and sweet romance, and I loved the chemistry between Lisa and Ryan. However, it was also a story about friendship, and I loved the banter and the dynamic between the four girls. I look forward to the other’s getting their own stories and hopefully HEA’s in the rest of the series!
