For many years I was hooked on espionage novels, serial killer novels and historical novels. Over the last few years I decided to lighten it up a bit. I still love a good mystery though, be it legal, political, historical or medical. I also enjoy reading a few books just for fun, and Dog Day Wedding is just that...a romantic comedy that kept me smiling. Somehow author Rich Amooi even had me smiling when poor Giovanni Roma was left at the alter...for the second time as the story begins. The bantering between his friends about what could have happened to keep the bride away was funny enough to set the light hearted tone of what could be a pretty dismal experience.
We meet Giovanni's somewhat pushy mother in the first chapter too and quickly realize the role she will play in the story. This is just not a good day for Giovanni who leaves the wedding and finds himself stopping traffic when he leaves his car in the middle of the street to save a run-away dog. Of course the police woman who is writing a ticket for disrupting traffic is quite attractive and decides to give him a warning rather than a ticket when she hears his story. This was not subtle foreshadowing, and no one is surprised when these two meet again. No surprise, although she is engaged, Natalie is falling for Giovanni.
The story is cute, the characters are charming and this is a perfect novel to read during a bout of insomnia or a wait in a doctor's office. It won't depress you or scare you. Like any good, old fashioned romantic comedy, it will keep you smiling while you root for the good guys.
