Nineteen-year-old Evelyn Dyer hates working but loves romance novels. So when an opportunity to manage Twin Comet State Park’s kayak rental comes her way, she accepts. She expects a summer of reading until her coworker arrives – a handsome and wickedly funny boy she went to high school with. Evelyn finds a new reason to enjoy her summer, but once the season ends, David Gao disappears into thin air, leaving her heartbroken.
Ten years later, Evelyn is a depressed wedding planner. She’s considering uprooting her life and starting over, but one final wedding stands between her and the finish line. Twelve weeks before the event, disaster strikes when the full-service venue absconds with the money, and the best man drops out. Evelyn’s last chance to deliver the wedding of the century hinges on fixing up a run-down lake house owned by the groom’s best friend. Evelyn accepts, only to learn that the new best man is none other than the enigmatic David Gao, and he’s refusing to tell anyone why he skipped town all those years prior.
The past ten years have turned Evelyn and David into different people, both with secrets of their own that threaten to destroy the wedding and a decade-old romance. Despite the odds, Evelyn and David are determined to save the date.
