Meet Celine and Luke

For all intents and purposes, the happy couple. Luke (a serial cheater) and Celine (more interested in piano than domestic life) plan to marry in a year.

Archie

The best man should be moving on from his love for Luke and up the corporate ladder, but he finds himself utterly stuck.

Phoebe

The bridesmaid and Celine's sister just wants to get to the bottom of Luke's frequent unexplained disappearances.

Vivian

A wedding guest who is the only one with any emotional distance, observing her friends like ants in a colony.

As the wedding approaches and these five lives intersect, each character will find themselves looking for a path to their happily ever after — but does it lie at the end of an aisle?

In her wry, sprightly, and unmistakable voice, Naoise Dolan makes the marriage plot entirely her own in a sparkling ensemble novel that is both ferociously clever and supremely enjoyable.
