4. Summary
Two things about Jane: she never says no to her friends (she's been a bridesmaid 27 times and
selflessly plans friends' weddings), and she's in love with her boss, George, nurturing dreams of
a lovely, romantic wedding of her own. She meets Kevin, a cynical writer who finds her
attractive, and that same week her flirtatious younger sister Tess comes to town. Jane silently
watches George fall for Tess, a manipulative pretender. Worse, Jane may be called upon to plan
their wedding. Meanwhile, Kevin tries to get Jane's attention and has an idea that may advance
his career. Can Jane uncork her feelings?
