The Wedding War

In Liz Talley's The Wedding War, this  endearing woman's fiction will bring you to tears about friendship, family, life, and love from start to finish. Tennyson Abernathy and Melanie Layton have been childhood best friends in Shreveport, Louisiana. Until they went their separate lives and when Tennyson ruined Melanie's wedding to Kit. Now fast forward twenty years, Melanie's daughter is engaged to Andrew Abernathy, Tennyson's son. And when Tennyson rolled back into town, it brought back the hurt and the pain of their best friendship. While this is going on with the wedding planning, she dealt with her strict mother, her sister's illness with eating disorders, her son Noah's concerns, and Kit's associate who wants him for herself. It's a bit too much for her. For Tennyson, she had hated Melanie for stealing Kit and had no regrets ruining her wedding. But when she's back in town, she set her eyes on Officer Joseph Rhett as her newest flame. While she plans the wedding with Melanie, she wants to try to set things right with Melanie and started anew as a shoulder to lean on and have some delicious fun. Through this time before the wedding, they were there for each other and want a second chance with each other since they're now reunited as family and blood is thicker than water for a sweet ending.

This was a beautiful and moving woman's fiction novel between two best friends and how they became blended as a family. I cared for Melanie who was a bit overwhelmed with family life and other issues. I didn't blame her for snapping and falling apart at the seams. I didn't care for Charlotte who was a floozy. I cared for Tennyson who wouldn't stop at nothing to clasp her eyes on Joseph and to try to do right for Andrew and to make amends with Melanie anyway possible. They both had been through a lot of heartache throughout the years. I loved how diverse Melanie and her family was, since they're part-Japanese, and part Southern.  I loved the Shreveport location with the idealistic and fascinating scenic settings at happened around the town. The themes are here is about forgiveness and second chances in life, love, friendship and family.
