Sometimes tying the knot gets complicated. It’s official: Zoey Marks is the cursed bridesmaid
that no engagement can survive. Ten years, three empire waist dresses, and ZERO brides have
walked down the aisle. And when Zoey Marks turns down a proposal from her perfect All-

American boyfriend, Rylan Harper III, she and Rylan are both left heartbroken, leaving Zoey to
wonder: what is it exactly about tying the knot that makes her want to run in the opposite
direction? Enter Hannah Green: Zoey’s best friend, who announces that she’s marrying a guy she
just met (cue eye roll) and Zoey will be a bridesmaid. It’ll be fine. Determined to turn her luck
around, Zoey accepts her role and vows to get Hannah down the aisle—all the while praying her
best friend’s wedded bliss will allow her to embrace marriage and get Rylan back. But as the
weekend goes on, Zoey is plagued with more questions than answers. Can you be a free spirit,
yet still want a certain future? Can you have love and be loved on your terms?
