A Lowcountry Wedding
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
Nothing could be more enchanting than a summer wedding—or two!—in storied Sullivan's Island. A centuries-old plantation, an avenue of ancient oaks dripping moss, a sand dune at sunset... it's all picture perfect, and half-sisters Dora, Carson, and Harper, and their grandmother Marietta "Mamaw" Muir couldn't be more excited. Wedding dresses are picked, venues booked, and delectable cakes tasted. What could possibly go wrong?
The answer, the Muir clan is soon to find out, is everything. Carson loves Blake, but struggles with giving up her independence. Harper questions if a prenuptial agreement will help or hurt the future of her marriage, and a newly unfettered Dora is uncertain whether she really wants to walk down the aisle again. Just when it seems things couldn't get more complicated for the Muir sisters, a stranger arrives bearing a long-held family secret that has the potential to upset even the most carefully laid-out wedding plans. With the weddings mere weeks away, the invitations sent out, and the family in tumult, Mamaw and her Summer Girls discover the enduring and powerful bonds of family, and realize that, no matter how different each bride might be, she can still have her perfect wedding.

Half-sisters Dora, Harper, and Carson may have had wildly different upbringings and lead vastly different lives, but they've always felt at home together at Sea Breeze, a sprawling plantation on a barrier island off the South Carolina coast. Sea Breeze has hosted its fair share of Muir family parties, and now that Harper and Carson's weddings are only two months away, the sisters are thrilled to be spending more time together there in preparation for their big days. But big events tend to bring out big problems in families, and the stress of guest lists and table decorations is nothing compared to the shock Dora, Harper, and Carson are about to face. Author Monroe continues her Lowcountry Summer series with characters loyal readers will know and love, blending southern charm and sass with familial intrigue and empathy. The picturesque landscape is lush and welcoming, and the novel is peppered with down-home details. A slow burn of a story mixed with genuine emotion, this will delight fans of Dorothea Benton Frank, Wendy Wax, and Elin Hilderbrand.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2016, American Library Association.)
