Five Sisters and a Wedding

---

Five days. Five sisters. Too many secrets to count. 

Family relationships are fascinating, frustrating, and fundamental to who we are. So, what happens if they're toxic? 

FIVE SISTERS AND A WEDDING* unfolds over five days at a destination wedding on Lake Michigan and is told from the alternating viewpoints of two of five sisters fighting for their place in a family dominated by their narcissistic retired-beauty-queen mother.

Thirty-year old Gabi French, a former street-artist, is sliding by on her reputation. She’s allowed fear to trap her in mediocrity, and in order to jump-start both her love life and her creativity, she must find the courage overcome spiteful critics, the distractions of her ADHD, and the emotional fallout of an abusive relationship—all while acting as her youngest sister Janie's maid of honor.

Beautiful, selfish Remi is the wedding planner. Five years younger than Gabi, Remi is desperate to make her mark in a family of overachievers. She's struggling to reset her defeatist self-image, but her plan to gain the respect she craves is about to fall apart, and it's Remi's own fault. 

When the groom’s handsome brother Jack arrives, it’s clear to everyone he’s smitten with Gabi. Everyone except Remi, who saw him first. Gabi’s powerful connection to Jack is hard to resist until she discovers he isn't who he says he is, and his secret devastates her.

Their oldest sister, Steph, takes the brunt of their mother's bad behavior, while Birdy, sister number two, and her long-time girlfriend Celia, wrestle with the twin commitments of marriage and children in a disapproving environment.

This wedding weekend could be the perfect moment for each sister to heal old hurts and step into her potential, but first, all five sisters must survive their parents’ shocking revelations.

When empowering themselves threatens what should be Janie’s happiest day, the sisters must reevaluate what’s truly important. Each tries to overcome her fears and set healthy boundaries, but they disagree on what that looks like, and now they'll have to hope it's not too late to use their love to lift each other up.
