The Weekend Before the Wedding

Mamma Mia meets Bridesmaids in a laugh-out-loud, life affirming comedy

‘An absolute winner’ Celia Anderson

‘No-one depicts family life with more humour and wisdom than Tracy Bloom’ Katie Fforde

‘You will absolutely love Tracy Bloom… Heartfelt and wonderful’ Miranda Dickinson

–––––––––––––––––––

One weekend, one bride-to-be, what could possibly go wrong…

All Shelley wanted on her hen weekend was to enjoy three days of sun, sea and sangria. But instead of being surrounded by the A-team of her closest friends, she somehow ends up with a Golden Girls-meets-the-Spice Girls B-list that includes her mother, a rebellious teenager, and a best mate ‘on the verge’.

The squabbling starts at the airport, and on arrival in Spain, Shelley barely has time to unpack her suitcase before getting an unwanted text ̶ one that throws her wedding into doubt.

Shelley has got a BIG decision to make, but her unruly medley of nearest and dearest seem determined to confuse matters with their own problems.

Have they got what it takes to get her through the most important weekend of her life?

About the author

Tracy started writing when her cruel, heartless husband ripped her away from her dream job, shopping for rollercoasters for the UK’s leading theme parks, to live in America with a brand new baby and no mates. In a cunning plan to avoid domestic duties and people who didn’t understand her Derbyshire accent, she wrote No One Ever Has Sex On A Tuesday. It went on to become a No.1 bestseller and publishing phenomenon.

Since then Tracy has written many more novels and been published successfully around the world. She now lives back home in Derbyshire with her husband and children.
