I loved loved loved this book. It brought me SO much happiness and joy and was simply incredible. I have read 7 out of 8 of the Newport Ladies Book Club Series. I wished I could have read the 8th book before reading Tying the Knot, but once I started reading I couldn't stop. This book was enchanting and enthralling and pulled me in from the very beginning. Each chapter was beautifully written. I cried from the beginning til the end. It was a seamless telling of a heart-warming story, with wonderful and unique voices for each character.
Tying the Knot is written from 8 different points of view - each woman in the book club gets a couple of chapters to tell her story. It sounded a little hectic to me, but it worked out flawlessly. I loved getting to experience each woman's perspective and learn about their thoughts and feelings. All the "loose" ends were tied up. It was a fun book to read and I can't wait to read it again. And again... and again... :)

It has been very interesting following through these very different women's stories and I thought this really tied up all of the loose ends. Well, mostly! You really felt like you were part of the story! You can't even tell that it was 4 different authors writing! I love that not everyone had to be married at the end, and it was okay! I love the surprises that came along too! I wish I was part of this book club! I really enjoyed this book and will have no problem reading it again!

Enjoy all of your favorite characters from “The Newport Ladies Book Club Series”. All 8 ladies and a handful of their significant others book a Mediterranean Cruise to participate in Athena and Grey’s wedding. The chapters seamlessly weave from one ladies’ view point to the next showing how people become important in each other’s lives without the need for sharing DNA. So if you want to find out how Olivia’s husband surprises her with a do-over anniversary or if Daisy will share a kiss with her ex-husband, Jared, you just have to pick up the book and let the gentle flow of story- telling tie up all the knots to complete each story line. This book will make you giggle, sigh and smile as the characters find their own happy endings. An absolute must read.
