The Wedding Forecast
Being part of a bridal party (heck, a wedding at all) can be stressful at the best of times. But for Anna—who is a bridesmaid at her best friend’s wedding, where her ex is a groomsman—smooth sailing was never on the cards. Oh, and did we mention that her ex is bringing his new partner?
Anna decides to find a distraction in the oh-so-perfect wedding photographer. That is, until a surprise entrant from New York shows up to complicate everything.
Young Adult author Nina Kenwood nailed it with her first novel for adults, and The Wedding Forecast is the feel-good rom-com to drink in along with some piña coladas.
