Nothing says summer like Galveston Island, a comfy beach chair, a big floppy hat, and a sweet tea in hand…especially if you’re diving into a feel-good romantic comedy. If you’re searching for the perfect beach reads to take along on your coastal getaway (or just want to feel like you’re at the beach), the Weddings by Bella series has you covered.
Set in sunny South Texas, these books are full of heart, humor, and wedding-day hijinks that will make you laugh out loud—and maybe even wipe away a happy tear. Meet Bella Rossi, a quirky Italian-Texan wedding planner whose life is anything but boring. From cowboy-themed weddings to castle dreams and 1940s throwbacks, Bella’s big Italian family brings charm, chaos, and a whole lot of love to the page.
Book One: Fools Rush In
When her Italian-turned-Texan parents hand over the family wedding-planning business, Bella Rossi books a “Boot Scootin’” country wedding…only she doesn’t know the first thing about country music. Enter DJ Neeley, a real-life cowboy with a playlist full of George Strait and charm to spare.
A hilarious culture clash with a whole lot of heart—and Tex-Mex flair!
Book Two: Swinging on a Star
Bella is planning a fairy tale wedding, Renaissance style—complete with a castle, costumes, and horse-drawn carriages. But the best man? Hollywood’s hottest heartthrob. And he’s staying in her house.
Lights, camera, chaos. This wedding might just be Bella’s biggest challenge yet.
Book Three: It Had to be You
Love is finally in the air for two feuding relatives, and Bella is thrilled to plan their glamorous 1940s-style wedding. But when family drama—and a mysterious old friend—gets involved, Bella’s own happily-ever-after may get a bit complicated.
Old-world charm meets new family chaos in this sweet and funny love story.
Book Four: That’s Amore
Now married with kids and a new Club Wed location opening in Splendora, Bella’s got her hands full. When DJ suggests they renew their vows, Bella agrees…until the town’s mayor tries to shut everything down.
A heartwarming story of family, faith, and finding joy in the chaos.
