A heartfelt fiction debut that will appeal to fans of Emily Giffinβs Southern charm and Jennifer Weinerβs compelling, emotionally resonant novels about the frustrations of blood ties, Cancel the Wedding follows one womanβs journey to discover the secrets of her motherβs hidden pastβand confront her own uncertain future.
Janeβs request offers Olivia a temporary escape from the reality sheβs long been denying: she hates her βdreamβ job, and sheβs not really sure she wants to marry her groom-to-be. With her 14-year-old niece, Logan, riding shotgun, she heads South on a summer road trip looking for answers about her mother.
As Olivia gets to know the townβs inhabitants, she begins to peel back the secrets of her motherβs early lifeβtruths that force her to finally question her own future. But when Olivia is confronted with a tragedy and finds an opportunity to right a terrible wrong, will it give her the courage to accept her motherβs pastβand say yes to her own desire to start over?
