Happily Inc is just as wonderful as Fools Gold. The characters are warm, wonderful, and wonderfully real.
Once again Susan Mallery writes a winner.
Susan Mallery was always the romance author that pulled me through so much. This book had it all. Wonderful characters, a fun premise, an easy read. I highly recommend.
I love all the characters and wish I lived in a place like this.
I’ve been reading Susan mallery for a number of years and enjoy her books. This one is a continuation and so the characters are familiar. It’s like you keep looking at a story and just add a new family member. Love the books keep them coming.
This book sucked! I deleted it.
I’ve read other Susan Mallery books and loved them. Not this one.
Great read hard to put down
I love the Fool’s Gold books by this author so I tried this one. I loved it just the same. Characters from Fool’s Gold make you immediately comfortable with the book. I would recommend these for anyone.
Love Susan Mallery’s Books. Never disappoints!
It had quirky characters and a cute story that wasn’t your typical boy meets girl story. I really liked it. It had a whimsy that was engaging. It looks to be a great series.
Relax easy book to reaf
Great Book! Love all of Susan’s books! Great story teller!
Enjoyed the book. Susan Mallery is a great romance writer. This was the first book of hers I have read. Loved the variety of characters. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
I LOVE everything by Susan Mallery and You Say It First is certainly no exception. The first book in the Happily, Inc. Series does not disappoint. It has all of the feels, wit, charm and romance we’ve come to love from Mallery. Along with fantastic characters and a great legend of how the town was started. There are even references from Fools Gold. I loved this refreshing, fun, romantic comedy that is only the beginning of what’s to come for Happily Inc.
Giving it 4+. Really liked the story and looking forward to further adventures in Happily Inc.–just ordered the Christmas novella A Very Merry Christmas–early Christmas gift to myself. The humor and the underlying insecurities of the characters engage your emotions and Ms Mallery has carefully set the stage for the rest of the series. Looking forward to more of the Mitchell brothers and all of the residents of Happily Inc. Copied from Goodreads.
You Say It First by Susan Mallery
The first book in the series called Happily Inc.
Pallas has a wedding venue that she is trying to make better and hires Nick and wood sculptor to fix the wooden panels that she uses for different theme weddings. Nick encourages her to think outside the box and to help people who want different weddings to be able to have them.
There are so many friends and family that help her work on the weddings that you know there are going to be more books in the series to write other friends love story.
I really enjoyed the banter back and forth between the two main characters plus meeting the other people who live in Happily Inc.
Love everything by this author!
It was one of Susan Mallery best
