The Wedding Party By Sophie King
Becky Hastings is not too happy about her prospect of her father, Geoff re-marrying. Especially since he’s only known his partner Monique for three months. And the news stirs up complex emotions in his ex-wife Helen.
Besides the stress of the wedding, Becky, a magazine journalist, is faced with the pressures of raising a young family and holding down her high powered job.
Her old school friend Janie is asked to organise the wedding. Except that hapless Janie isn’t great on detail – the reason why she was sacked from her previous job.
There’s also Mel, the vicar who is distracted by events in her own life – not to mention an unemployed husband and two tricky teens. The wedding seems destined to be a disaster but fate has some other ideas.
An absorbing and entertaining read, The Wedding Party contains all the elements needed to induce tears of both joy and sadness.
