From Paige Turner Book Reviews:
"I was genuinely thrilled to pick up Ellen the Bride and revisit not only the harp-playing protagonist, but the entire cast of witty, well-balanced characters that Diane Michaels has woven into this incredible series. There's a fabulous mix of characters, each adding something integral to the narrative . . . It's a great escape from real-life and I highly recommend you indulge in the same way I did… outside, basking in the sunshine, with a glass of something bubbly to hand. It's the perfect combination!"

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. For an experienced wedding professional like Ellen, planning her own wedding should be as simple as the age-old rhyme.
Unfortunately, her something old is an ex-boyfriend itching to get back together, her something new is being the first bride to walk down the aisle at a venue still under construction, and her something borrowed is time. It's enough to make a bride quite blue.
Trying to land her dream job offers her a distraction from her wedding blues. But when her fiancé Josh takes off for a Broadway tour without so much as a kiss goodbye, will Ellen's plans for the perfect wedding disappear with him?

Book 3: The Series Conclusion...
Who a harpist brings with her for a four-month-long gig aboard a cruise ship:
Her best friend. A lock-picking pianist. And a blow-up doll.
Who she leaves behind:
When Ellen's boyfriend Josh goes on the road with a Broadway touring production, Ellen takes to the high seas. Can tropical destinations, a busy performance schedule, and cheap booze in the crew bar distract her from the heartache of her separation from Josh? Or will her mother's devastating news and her best friend's antics send her overboard?
Single. Inept at flirting. But at least she has talent and a sense of humor. The problem is, she's often the punchline.
Ellen Blum is pretty good at convincing herself she is an adult. Despite her difficulties, she's proud of the cred she has earned serenading brides down the aisle with her harp. Doesn't being 27 and paying her rent on time prove she's a grown-up?
Not so much, according to her personal chorus of critics. And as she dodges the barbs and petty crimes of her bosses and copes with a family crisis, she feels more like a child than ever. She has her heart set on silencing her critics and teaching them - and maybe herself - a new tune. But becoming more than the person described on her business card is even trickier than moving her harp.
