Finding Melodie and The Wedding Boxset
By: Laura Rossi
5 Stars

This boxset contains both books in the series of Melodie and the Office Guy. I absolutely loved these books. They were easy to read with loveable characters that I found myself thinking about long after both stories ended.

Both stories focus on Melodie, who is perhaps one of the most loveable and relatable characters I have ever met. She had a very nontraditional upbringing and has a love of music. She is going to school to be a composer and works as a bartender and busking in London. It is here that she first spots Office Guy. Office Guy is another very lovable and relatable character. We all know someone who has lost themself while trying to be who they think the person they love wants them to be.

Finding Melodie centers around how Office Guy and Melodie meet and become friends. After Office Guy is broken up with, Melodie hatches the most incredible plan to help him get her back. What she doesn’t count on is falling in love with him. The question throughout the story is can she keep helping him try to get his girlfriend back when she knows she is developing feelings for her? Will her feelings ever be reciprocated?

The Wedding is all about the trials and tribulations that Office Guy and Melodie go through as they are finally ready to tell the world that they love one another. Office Guy comes from a very traditional, upper class background while Melodie comes from a family of musicians, who also happen to be hippies. To say Melodie wasn’t welcomed by them would be an understatement.

Laura Rossi truly created a gem in these two books. They were quick reads and they kept me wanting more. I can only hope that she will write more about Office Guy and Melodie in the future.

I just want to start by saying I read this in one sitting. It was perfectly adorable. There were never ill intentions by the two main characters and I loved that. It was a romance that started with a heartbreak and ended with happiness. Everybody in the story (minus the cause of the initial heartbreak) were sweet and quirky and people that I would love to have in my friend group. I would love to see this become a movie, I could picture everybody so clearly. I love the awkward moments as much as the perfect moments. Which lines up with the protagonist of this story. Definitely recommend this bookset. And definitely recommend clearing your calendar for the night in order to read straight through both books!

Finding Melodie was a sweet & sad story. Melodie helped Issac propose to his girlfriend. Who actually turned him down. This story was about Melody deciding she was going to help Issac get her back.
But at what cost to her? She’s falling for someone she can’t have. Repeating the same cycle in her life. The question is what does Issac want?
The Wedding reminded me so much of the movie Monster In Law, which I do love! It’s time to meet the parents and get to know them better! Or so Melodie thought. Instead she got an overprotective future mother in law to boot.
Cynthia, Issac’s mom, took one look at Melodie and was like “nope not my son.” She made it her mission to prove to Melodie that her relationship was wrong. That she didn’t belong.
It’s the way she went about it, as well as finding out she had a mother in law that detested her, at which I come to the movie comparison.
It’s a cute romantic boxset with some entertainment to boot. Definitely worth the read!

A fun, witty romantic read was just what I needed this week and this more than delivered for me!
I fell in love with the wonderful characters right from the first few pages and couldn’t wait to see what fun and havoc was going to come their way. I just knew right from the start that Melodie was going to be the one to shake things up for Isaac. This read left me light hearted and hopeful. What a wonderful author to create such feelings in her readers.

Feisty romcom
Boxsets are the best! I really enjoyed both of these books and best of all I could just read right on through. Melodie is a beautiful soul and Isaac just completes her. So many laugh out loud moments and times that made me reflect, especially with Melodie’s positive rules to live by. A feel good refreshing romantic read that gripped me from page one and left me with all the feels. A must read.

Finding Melodie and The Wedding Boxset by Laura Rossi was an enjoyable romantic comedy! It was an entertaining romance and the perfect blend of sweetness and spice with some really great humor sprinkled throughout the book.

Can I just say how much I loved our heroine, Melodie, aka Pixie! She really was like a magic fairy who sprinkled magical dust into the lives of those she loved and cared about. Her quirkiness and happy outlook complemented good guy, Isaac, aka Office Boy. I loved how she helped him remember the joy of living and how he gave her the security and trust she craved.

The first book, Finding Melodie, tells the tale of how Melodie and Isaac fell in love. It’s somewhat a friends-to-lovers and fake relationship romance. The story itself is sweet with some dashes of spice. The book opens with her telling us how she has been crushing on Issac or as she calls him, Office Boy, for many months. When he acknowledges her for the first time, it isn’t in the way she was hoping. However, she doesn’t realize at the time that this is the first step towards her own HEA.

The second book, The Wedding, opens with their engagement and not long after, Melodie, meeting his parents which is quite memorable and hilarious. Let’s just say our Pixie’s magic dust does not work with Isaac’s mother AT ALL! The events leading up to the big day made me laugh but also made me angry at some of the characters. Rossi nails the stress of wedding planning and future in-laws. As with the first book, multiple characters narrate the book which gives readers more insight to their personalities.

I enjoyed the way the writer wrote in both books. It was like the characters were casually talking to me over coffee about how they came to fall in love and all the hilarious and at times, painful and frustrating events leading up to their wedding. I was quite sad to tell them good-bye. And, Rossi gave us one more little surprise, a sneak peek into the story of Melodie’s parents, Agatha and Stephen. I cannot wait to read that one!!!!

What fun and entertaining books these both are. Although they are short they are well written and definitely know how to keep your interest. They are lighthearted and sweet romances with some great characters. They were relatable and easy to connect with right from the start.
I lived the fact that this boxed set had been created as I was certainly ready to move straight on to book 2 after finishing the first. These are the kind of stories you can get yourself lost in for an afternoon. I thoroughly enjoyed both if these books and would recommend them.

This book was a cute fun read that shows opposites do attract and sometimes it does mean you do get the person you want even if it’s not how it starts out. And even with struggles it’s how you make them.

And when there are multiple books and I can get them all at once it’s so much better.

These two books were so much fun to read. It was a quick read filled with wonderful characters that were just completely lovable. The author did a wonderful job writing a story that moved quickly but also gave great details. It was definitely a page turning and I could not put this book down. The world the author created was such a wonderful escape and had a very Hallmark channel vibe to it. The best part of a box set was not having to wait to see what happened in the sequel. The two stories flowed wonderfully together.

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!

Finding Melodie and The Wedding Special Boxset by Laura Rossi. This was such a fun Boxset. Its got 2 books included, The Wedding and Finding Melodie. Both were equally great, short reads that won’t let you put them down. In Finding Melodie we meet Melodie a pink haired musician who plays on street corners for money in London. She lives with her 2 gay best friends and they have the best time. One day she meets one of her regulars she calls “Office Guy” who she has a slight crush on and he asks her for help. He wants to propose to his girlfriend and he needs her help. She is a little broken hearted but decides to help him. They end up on a wild adventure together and The Wedding is a continuation of that friendship. In this book they are more than friends and the troubles and pleasures of that relationship are in play. This is a romantic fun boxset that you will love.

This boxset had a lot of sweet moments that pulled on my heartstrings. This boxset was just so wholesome and endearing. I loved reading every single bit of it. The writing was phenomenal. For reading the author’s books for the first time, there’s no words that express all the feelings that I felt while I read this box series. Everything was real world relatable and that’s what I loved most about it! Well done author well done!

The sound of sweet love music in the park. Melodie is street musician and Isaac comes to listen to her every day in the park during his lunch. Over a spoiled proposal, Melodie offers to help him win his girlfriend back. Cue up the wild adventures. Isaac sees that Melodie opens his life up. There is no going back to the way his life was. Melodie is the woman for him. They have adventures galore. This story is full of humor, a little sadness, lots of happiness, family that causes some hiccups and some other miscellaneous issues that pop up. There are so many little favorite parts for me in this set. I loved the whole story. Victoria, the hussy dog, cracked me up. No surpise what happened there. LOL. With a mom like Cynthia, they all rebel. But in the end, love and forgiveness redeems, that’s what makes this authors books so wonderful. She also writes very engaging stories. Once I started this one, I just couldn’t put this one down. I had to finish it, because I wanted to know what was going to happen. I would definitely give this more than a 5 if I could. I highly recommend one-click this one.

I love that this set offers the opportunity to meet and fall in love with the characters, and then embark on another journey with them together. Melodie is a powerful package in a small box; You take an instant liking to her and her hopeless romanticism. This is a fun series that also incorporates serious vibes and storylines. Perfectly imperfect with just enough passion and humour!
Laura Rossi does an incredible job of taking you on the journey with her in London. A flirty romance, an atypical main character, great support characters, and a lot of scenery. I can’t wait to read more about the entanglements of the broader characters in the series! Let’s have one about John and Mike, whose wit and style give the main characters a run for their money!!

Absolutely recommend this book. It’s a cute little love story that I just couldn’t put down! Melodie is a street musician in London. Artistic, tattoos, piercings and pink hair! She’s secretly crushing on Office Guy, a “square” who spends every lunch break on a bench facing her and listening to her play. One day he talks to her and their lives will never be the same. Do opposites really attract?

Pixie and Office Guy have been together a year now and still going strong. He pops the question and she says yes of course! Then the doubts set in. Is she good enough to make him happy? Is she marriage material? Will his family approve? I really enjoyed the next chapter in the lives of Melodie and Issac. I read both books in less than 24 hours!

This is such a sweet romance with so many moments that made me laugh out loud. I really love that Melody isn’t the typical cookie cutter heroine. She’s unique, she speaks up for herself and doesn’t take crap and she’s so carefree. It’s so interesting to read her observations about the people that come to listen to her play and the way she immediately falls for Office Guy the second she lays eyes on him. He isn’t the type she typically goes for either which might be just what she needs to get it right this time. Sometimes you really do need someone that is the complete opposite of you to balance each other out. I was rooting for them from the very beginning. They face some obstacles along the way that really had me glued to the book wait to see what would happen next, but the ending is definitely swoon worthy. This is one adorable romcom that you won’t want to miss.

I love it when an author has boxsets because you don’t have to worry about the hassle of chasing up book after book.
Finding Melodie and The Wedding are great romantic comedies. Both books are short but sweet and well written. You will fall in love with the characters and the humour is fun and engaging. This heart-warming story sees two opposites attract. It also made me reminisce about my time spent there on my visits overseas.
Refreshing, witty, light-hearted are only a few words that describe this romantic comedy. Grab a copy a light refreshment and settle in for a great escape from real life.

This is a romance box set that I enjoyed reading. One of the things about boxsets that I enjoy the most is how I can read one book after the other without waiting for it to come out. This is not my first story by this author but it is some of my favorites. This set will take you from the beginning of a relationship to the wedding in this relationship. Melodie and Issac are great characters and have great chemistry. I enjoyed watching their growth in each story as well as throughout the boxset. They are connectable and supportive of every character. This is a well written story that is hard to put down. Each story is unique and takes you on a different part of this relationship. They brought out some emotions in me as well. They will make you laugh and also have some heartfelt times. I really enjoyed reading each book. I highly recommend this box set. It is worth the pick up and you don’t want to miss what happens to this couple.

This was a story that had a lot of heart, was sweet to read, and had those moments that really helped you to connect to the characters and truly bond with them! I fell in love with this author and their writing and how the story developed and came together! Was a wonderful read!

I loved this box set especially, as it was a fun and amazing read, nothing was predictable and I found that really things came together by fate and very much unexpectedly! How Melodie and her match, Isaac find their way into one another’s arms was cute, sweet, and not the way I expected it to go! I fell in love with the two of them. Then you read about their wedding, and the writing flowed just as nice as the first novel. Sweetness was present, and a bunch of smiles loomed over my face as I read. Loved the parents in that one, they certainly added nicely to the story. I enjoyed this story and box set very much, I could not put this one down, it was enlightening and charming all together! A must read for sure!

Wonderful and loveable story. It was uplifting as it was sweet. I highly recommend this author for sure, I have been reading their books for some tome. This boxset is a must read, and I highly recommend it!
