    "description": "Matrimony meets mayhem in a modern British romcom about a young woman charged with pulling off the biggest aristocratic wedding of the year\u2013\u2013and the misadventures that ensue.\n\nSophie Breeze is a brilliant bridesmaid. So brilliant, in fact, that she\u2019s made it her full-time job.\n\nAs a professional bridesmaid, Sophie is hired by London brides to be their right-hand woman, posing as a friend but working behind the scenes to help plan the perfect wedding and ensure their big day goes off without a hitch. When she\u2019s hired by Lady Victoria Swann\u2013\u2013a former model and \u201cIt Girl\" of 1970\u2019s London; now the Marchioness of Meade\u2013\u2013for the society wedding of the year, it should be a chance for Sophie to prove just how talented she is.\n\nOf course, it\u2019s not ideal that the bride, Lady Victoria\u2019s daughter, Cordelia, is an absolute diva and determined to make Sophie\u2019s life a nightmare. It\u2019s also a bit inconvenient that Sophie finds herself drawn to Cordelia\u2019s posh older brother, who is absolutely off limits. But when a rival society wedding is announced for the very same day, things start to get\u2026well, complicated.\n\nCan Sophie pull off the biggest challenge of her career\u2013\u2013execute a high-profile gala for four hundred and fifty guests in record time, win over a reluctant bride, and catch the eye of handsome Lord Swann\u2013\u2013all while keeping her true identity a secret, and her dignity intact?\n\nHeartwarming and hilarious, The Secret Bridesmaid celebrates the joys (and foibles) of weddings, the nuances of female friendship, and the redeeming power of love in its many unexpected forms.",
