Lucy Keating
A sun-soaked summer, the wedding of the season, and a love triangle between your best friend and lifelong nemesis
After traveling back in time, a wedding planner gets a second chance at happily ever after.
Maggie always expected to be the bride when her best friend Walker got married. But life had other plans. Now she’s traveling to New England, preparing to watch him tie the knot with someone else.
So, Maggie does the only rational thing: She hooks up with Lucas, the brooding, recently divorced brother of the bride and hides in the abandoned satellite tower that looms over the coast . . . only to wake up in her past.
Suddenly she’s reliving her summer after college: Walker hasn’t fallen in love with his future wife, Lucas is on the verge of his own wedding, and Maggie’s mother is still in her life. Seizing the opportunity to do it again, Maggie embraces the chance to see if Walker was meant to be hers, but starts to wonder, "What if Lucas is meant to be mine?"
Lucy Keating’s big-hearted novel captures an effervescent romance of first loves and second chances
