Book Synopsis

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the hit Virgin River series.

In this hilarious contemporary romance tale from Robyn Carr, readers are swept into a conflicted bride's whirlwind journey to the most chaotic wedding event of the year.

After her divorce, Charlene Dugan vowed never to get married again--a promise she has kept for twenty-five years. Until the fateful day she finds herself uttering the well-known phrase--"Let's get married!"
Almost immediately, Charlene's seemingly perfect life begins unraveling at the seams. Daughter Stephanie's own relationship is about to disintegrate, and she might be just a teensy-weensy bit jealous of her mom. And Charlene seems to be spending more time with her ex-husband than with her fiancé, Dennis. What's more confusing is that Dennis doesn't seem to mind too much. In fact, he sees the wedding consultant more often than Charlene does.
The wedding party is now officially out of control. They're calling for rain and the bride has cold feet. This isn't exactly what Charlene had in mind. But maybe it's not too late to finally decide on who and what she really wants.

From the Back Cover

Charlene Dugan started her day as usual -- single. Then, all in the space of a few hours:
-- Her daughter announced she doesn't want to "end up like her"
-- Her absentminded mother got lost in a parking lot
-- Her ex-husband accused her of being afraid of commitment

Now her decision to utter those three little words -- let's get married -- has everyone around her in a tailspin. The maid of honor is in a tempest over a man fifteen years her junior. Her daughter, the official bridesmaid, has decided to reinvent herself. The groom is spending all of his free time with the wedding consultant. And her ex-husband, a man who still drives her crazy, is making some pretty convincing arguments for a second chance.

The wedding party is out of control, they're calling for rain and the bride has cold feet. This isn't exactly what Charlene had in mind.
