Rockaway Bride: A Rockstar / Kidnapping / Runaway Bride Romantic Comedy

Once again we return to the wild, wonderful, wacky world of supersized and royal hockey players, an all girls boy band cover band and emotional support monkeys, with the addition of stilt fighters, nuns and affectionate farm animals. Truthfully, we all knew Willow wouldn’t really marry Martin, but who could have foreseen what would happen next? After consuming too much mead in the company of the royal sheep, Willow finds herself handcuffed to the world's biggest rock star, stowed away below deck on a stinky fishing boat. And then things really get interesting. Instead of a hostage stolen away from her wedding at the royal castle, Willow turns the tables and spends her honeymoon taking Dax, her rock star kidnapper, on the adventure of a lifetime through Europe. Now you're probably asking, “Why would a rock star kidnap a pre-school teacher related to royalty?” That’s actually quite an entertaining story you’ll have to read to believe.I think Willow’s story will resonate with a lot of readers. If we're honest, we read fiction to escape real life for a little while, and who wouldn't love to ditch the day to day routine and go on a crazy, fantastic adventure of a lifetime? And in classic Pippa style, this is one outrageous, hilarious, thrilling adventure. But along with all the madcap antics and zany situations, the changes and growth in both Willow and Dax as their relationship develops is a beautiful, heartwarming delight to watch. Willow breaks out of her pre-school teacher mold and let’s the bold, courageous, risk taker loose. As Dax tags along and observes Willow, doing his best to keep her out of trouble, his perspective on his life and career changes. He realizes not everyone is after him for his fame and fortune, and most of all, he learns to live in the moment, have some fun and actually laugh, which he hasn’t done for a very long time.It’s always a bittersweet experience when I’ve finished a Pippa Grant book. I’ve laughed till my side hurts and tears are running down my face. I’ve possibly cried but definitely had my heart squeezed within an inch of its life. I’ve lived a grand, exciting adventure that I never want to see end. I’ve loved, both the amazing story as well as these quirky, phenomenal, perfectly flawed and eternally endearing characters who have forever carved their place in my heart. This book touches every part of the reader with its humor, hilarity, tenderness and heart, and I will never get enough of these spectacular, unique, perfectly imperfect characters. If you’ve never read Pippa, seriously, what are you waiting for?!! Her books promise an unparalleled reading experience that will touch your heart, make the worst day brighter, and even help to restore your faith in humanity.

I laughed SO MUCH during this book! This may very well have been my favorite so far. Dax is hilarious! The names he comes up with for the “nun brigade” were too good to be true. SO funny!I love how he was able to get Willow to come out of her shell. And we finally learn more about mysterious Eloise!I do feel like part of the story was incomplete (where’s Danger? When’s he coming back?) and I’m disappointed about how things were sort of left hanging with Willow & Dax’s relationship & futures. But it’s still a very, very worthwhile read!

A wild ride through adventures and love. This romantic tale also includes tons of entertaining character sketches and melding of multiple stories deeper into the tapestry of the Pippa Grant world. Each new book draws you in further in fun and makes searching out the other stories a necessity. Hilarious characters and wild new situations keep the reading great fun.

i could read avery book by pippa grant and not feel like it is the some as the last mixes it up avery time one of the best

This book just wow. I love love Dax and Willow. It’s the bad boy and the sunshine princess plus a kidnapping, nuns, weird animals, and an adventure. The book is fairly low angst and has a little bit of everything - sweet moments, steamy scenes, strong friendships, strong families, snort worthy laughs, swoons, painful pasts, and all the love. Willow is a sweet sunshine kindergarten teacher whose mother is married to a king of a small country. She is supposed to get married to her boyfriend of 7 years when the book starts but she’s not sure she really wants to. Dax is a famous rockstar whose life recently went off the rails including missing money, missing friends, and a string of bad luck. Due to both of them imbibing alcohol they end up on a boat handcuffed together in a sort of kidnapping which is where their wild adventure across parts of Europe starts. The connection between Willow and Dax grows organically through each hilarious leg of their adventure until their HEA is a foregone conclusion. But it is a wild, hilarious journey that will give you all the feels - you’ll laugh, swoon, cry, cringe, cheer, and happy sigh. This is one of my very favorite Pippa Grant books. I love the Girl Band series.

Such a good, cute book. Loved it. Took off a star simply because the beginning was just a little unbelievable. The whole kidnapper thing...with her being found by Dax in another country, on palace grounds. Just all too contrived. But I kived the story.

This story, while full of fun banter, romance, and adoring characters, I loved the most for its overall message of letting go of fears and having fun and living one’s life. I really enjoyed this read and super looking forward to more of Eloise and her mysterious and crazy ways.

I am Pippa Grant to my favourite authors list. I have no idea where her story lines come from but they are so fun. I was literally crying with laughter over the dildo fight!! This book was serious in places but so good to read. So ... onto the next book by Pippa.

I loved this book as much as the first two and I can’t wait to read the next. This one had me laughing as quietly as I could, but my hubby still had to ask me if I was okay. These two are adorable together and I love their humour..

This was such a fun read! I loved the story the character and the nuns! This series is so fun and can’t wait to see what Elouise gets up too

Oh gosh how I loved this book too!If there is one thing to say about Pippa Grant is she is awesomely talented to create each time a new story with crazy characters, laughing out loud moments and incredible storylines, each new story is a whole new world even with already known characters.I do loved this insane road trip.From the worst kidnapper ever to the craziest kidnapped world known to a big monkey attack, a stilts battle, nuns breaking free and more and more.Dax and Willow are both very attaching characters, he with all his flaws, failed marriages, but also his love for his friends and his pop. She for her insanity when she lets it free, also her cute and careful side to not hurt those she loves.This journey will see them growing up, Dax will understand money is not all, Love is as if not more precious while Willow will for once revel her true self hidden under her usual so prim and proper appearance.Impossible to sum up this book but if you’re in for keep a smile au day long in your face ride, this one is for you.

I have to say I really loved this book so nice to see Willow grow before our eyes and have Dax watch and support her while he found himself again. Great story
