In this story, main character Zoey Marks stars as the cursed bridesmaid. No engagement is able to survive her, in her opinion. But she doesn’t just have to think this: she has the track record to prove it.

It’s been a decade and she’s been fitted for three dresses, and in all that time no brides have managed to make it down the aisle. It’s been strike three and now Zoey is starting to wonder if maybe she is having some unknown effect on everything. Could it be that her own ambivalent feelings about marriage end up having an impact on the people close to her and then they end up calling things off?

She’s always been distrustful of matrimony, and this reaches a head when she turns down a proposal from her boyfriend Rylan Harper III. She and Rylan are left with broken hearts and this makes Zoey try to figure out just what it is about getting married that makes her run away from it.

This brings in Hannah Green. She’s Zoey’s closest friends and makes the announcement that she is getting married to a guy that she met recently. They’re getting married in Ireland. Ryland will be there and Zoe’s going to be a bridesmaid, something that she sees as a recipe for disaster. Could fourth time be the charm and be enough to break the curse? Is it worth putting herself in such an uncomfortable situation?

Zoey wants to turn her luck around and takes on the role as bridesmaid. She promises herself that she’s going to do whatever it takes to get Hannah to go down that aisle and tie the knot. This is her big chance to break the curse and show everyone that she can be included in a wedding and it will actually end up happening.

She really hopes that her best friend is going to get happily married and this will in turn allow her to have warmer feelings about marriage and even hopefully be able to get Rylan back in her life. As the weekend continues, Zoey has more questions than she does answers.

She wonders whether you can be a free spirit while also wanting a future, and if it’s possible to get love and be loved on your own terms. Can Zoey take a chance and finally break the curse that she feels she brings to every wedding? Or is she about to find out that the fourth time around is a failure too?
