One wedding weekend means one dramatic reunion for two families in this bighearted ensemble cast novel about love and forgiveness

"A page-turner with heart." --Alison Wisdom, author of We Can Only Save Ourselves

"Dazzling Readers will love these flawed, tender characters." --Deb Rogers, author of Florida Woman

When thirty-three-year-old Athena Matthias is asked, yet again, to be a bridesmaid, she's not exactly enthusiastic about the idea. Still reeling from a messy divorce from her wife, she's never felt less inclined to celebrate love. But Athena can't say no, especially to one of her oldest friends, and at least it's a destination wedding, which means three days of sun and sand.

As the wedding weekend commences on the gorgeous beaches of Watercolor, Florida, for the first time in ages, Athena finds herself surrounded by people who know and love her. There's the bride, nervous about an old relationship; a groomsman grappling with a big mistake; Athena's mother, ready to date again; and even a potential new romantic interest.

But just as Athena begins to feel herself opening up again, an unexpected guest from the past throws the entire wedding party into chaos. By the time the cake is cut and the ultimate betrayal is revealed, Athena must find the courage to forgive--both others and herself--and embrace the beauty of a chance to move forward.

"Today Tonight Forever beautifully encapsulates all the ways people come together and break apart. This book is moving, sweet, funny, and I fell in love with its characters over and over again." --Ilana Masad, author of All My Mother's Lovers
