After not speaking for many years, Drue reappears to ask Daphne to be her maid of honor in her wedding. The hot new designer thinks that Daphne agreeing to do this - even for someone she barely knows any more - will do wonders for both Daphne and the designer. So Daphne agrees and finds herself not only in the wedding, but the maid of honor.
Drue's influential and extrememly rich family is the center of attention the wedding weekend because Drue is marrying a TV reality star. Daphne finds herself drawn into the glamour of the weekend and is starting to wonder if Drue has really changed her ways. Then tragedy strikes and Daphne tries to figure out what this was all about all along.
This was an okay book. I am a Jennifer Weiner fan, but this wasn't a great one. It is a GREAT beach read/summer book. The story is quite shallow, but I have very thin skin for "influencers" Just seems so silly to me. If that is something that interests you, then this book would be for you.
