Summary

Mia thought she had it all figured out. After a whirlwind romance with her charming boyfriend Leo, she’s ready to take the plunge into marriage … until wedding planning turns her world upside down. With family expectations looming and doubts creeping in, she questions everything she thought she wanted.
