Ahead of their weddings, four friends wrestle with love and ambition as their lives take unexpected turns in this moving novel from the author of Once Upon a Time in Dollywood.
Bound by over a decade of friendship, Eve, Maya, Siobhan, and Nikole make a pact that they will not lose sight of their goals—or themselves—once married. But as they navigate major shifts in their lives, they learn that promise may be easier said than done, and the cracks in their seemingly unbreakable bond begin to show.
Eve’s professional dreams are coming true, but with career pressures and familial obligations closing in on all sides, she finds herself falling back into old patterns… and pulling away from her fiancé.
Newly divorced Nikole is ready to explore the dating scene in New York. But when she unexpectedly meets the man who just might be the love of her life, she has to convince her loved ones (and herself) that it’s not just fools who rush in.
Maya and Siobhan have waited years for their wedding day. As Maya’s basketball career nears its end, it’s time for their life together to begin. Except Maya is struggling to give up the game, while Siobhan is ready to take a big step—with or without the love of her life.
Love, loss, and loyalty take center stage in this poignant novel that asks what happens when the friendships of our youth finally have to grow up—for better or for worse.
