Jonathan, on Maine’s idyllic Sandpiper Island, hits a speed bump when she learns that she’s still technically mar- ried to her ex-love Hugo, whom she eloped with years ago and has been evading ever since. Now she must confront the ghosts of her past and reconsider her vision for the future. Meanwhile, Natalie, Marigold’s maid of honor, grapples with her myriad wed- ding duties and fitting into Marigold’s upscale world. She’s dedicated to making Marigold’s wedding perfect despite her own secret feelings for the groom. Then there’s Olivia, Marigold’s overachieving sister, who strains under the burden of her family’s expectations as she struggles to clean up Marigold’s mess. She’s hoping the wedding will lead her into the arms of her own Mr. Right, but instead she winds up in a fake dating scheme with Jonathan’s best man, Zack, whom she insists she finds insufferable. Amid the lightly comedic chaos, Kass does a thoughtful job of showing how societal expectations weigh on each woman, shaping their choices. Fans of romantic comedies with a Hallmark Channel vibe will enjoy this heartwarming tale of embracing love even when it comes from an unexpected place. (Apr.)
