Thank you to LibraryThing, the authors and the publisher for this ebook.

The plot is a little bit too coincidental if you ask me but it happens. From best friends, like sisters almost, to practically enemies, and I understood why after the past story came out. One of my favorite scenes was when the two mothers (June [mother of bride] and Amy [mother of groom]) saw each other for the first time in over 25 years. You could basically hear the screech of a record as if a record was playing in the restaurant.

It's hard to believe that June and Amy were friends in college since they are total opposites now. June was bitter about everything from the past that happened between her and Amy, and now she's bitter that Amy is practically taking over the wedding arrangements.

No one seems to want to bury the hatchet but can they? Can these once best friends become friends again and more importantly, mothers-in-laws that can get along? There's much more with their exes too but I'll leave it like it is.

I liked the second half of the book more. It was more interesting I guess.

Olivia and Zach meet in Italy and instantly fall in love. After a whirlwind romance, they become engaged. Both sets of parents are divorced, so the mothers are wary about their children's rapid engagement.
Now, it is time for all the parents to meet each other. But, there is a big surprise-Olivia's mother, June, and Zach's mother, Amy, were best friends in college-but are no longer talking. Why? Because Amy betrayed June.
The women's emotions get in the way of their children's happiness. Are they able to put the past behind them?
Easy read, awkward situation, but love prevails.

Cute story of a newly engaged young couple and the baggage their respective families inadvertently bring to the mix. I enjoyed the ending with everyone coming together. I found it to be a light, easy read and enjoyed the different relationships and how they changed from the beginning to the end.

This is actually probably a three and a half star read, but I decided to bump it because I did enjoy the story. I found it interesting that the story alternated between the point of view of the widow and the mistress. I wasn't surprised by the twist and found myself somewhat unhappy with the resolution. I liked the widow and thought it was terrible to inflict so much pain with so little happiness in return. However, all in all, it was a good read.
