Wedding of the Season

Summary

It’s the wedding of the season, and all of Newport is abuzz in this delightful, witty novel about two modern-day society families and the summer wedding that has the whole town talking…

Despite its beauty, Newport is a place Cass Coventry would prefer to forget. But after a long absence, she’s back in her hometown to celebrate her sister’s engagement—even if she’s marrying into the family that stole the Gilded Age Coventry mansion out from under them a decade ago.

The moment Cass pulls up to the estate, she’s in for one surprise after another. The bride-to-be is hiding a big secret. Her eccentric mother has royal-wedding aspirations. And, when the date is set for only three months away, a local gossip blog makes the two families—and their famously complicated history—its new favorite subject.

As Cass tries to keep things from spinning out of control, her weekend in town becomes a full summer season with few friendly faces. Her plan is simple: stay out of the spotlight until the wedding and then return to her life abroad. But when the grand affair arrives and buried truths come to light, she must finally face her own thorny past in Newport and decide how to honor the Coventry legacy in all its chaotic glory.
