To Have and to Hold, Three Autumn Love Stories, is the newest book in the second Year of Weddings novella collections. These stories feature ladies that work behind the scenes to make the perfect wedding for others. The stories do not tie to each other in any way besides the idea that each person works in the wedding industry. If you have read other novellas by the authors you may recognize some of the characters but you do not have to read the other books in order to enjoy and appreciate these. These are quick, light hearted reads that are predictable but have the happily ever after endings that you will enjoy reading. Because they are novellas they do not have as much detail as you would get in a full length novel, but the authors do a good job of fitting in enough details to make you feel like you are part of the story. I loved the first Year of Weddings collection and think that looking at the perspective of people in the business adds an interesting element.
