Marry in Haste

(2016)
A collection of stories by

 
 
These 15 warm, witty short stories take an affectionate look at love and romance. There are five wry tales about each of the following stages: seeking a partner, committing to marriage, and surviving the long haul. Each story has a cast of different characters, from single girls seeking Mr Right, to couples struggling with the technicalities of getting hitched, to long-wedded couples who have plenty of time to repent at leisure.

Although most of the stories are told from a female perspective, this is far from being a feminist rant, but is rather a gentle celebration of matrimony - provided you find the right partner, plan the wedding your way, and find ways to live together long-term, despite each other's foibles.

Debbie Young is renowned for her sharp observational British humour, which is underpinned by a cheery optimism and a heart of gold. This little book is ideal for anyone who believes in love and longs to live happily ever after, even if they haven't yet found their perfect partner. Although not a classically romantic book, it could be a fun and quirky gift for an engagement, wedding, anniversary or Valentine's Day.
