A wedding shaped by family expectations and cultural difference

Stephanie Durant’s engagement brings her from her new life in Miami back to Haiti, where her family’s expectations for a traditional wedding collide with the future she and Patrick are trying to build. The setup connects romance with questions of belonging, family influence, and the contrast between Patrick’s assumptions about Haiti and Stephanie’s personal ties to the island. The wedding becomes the point where private history and family tradition must be brought into the open.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in romance involving an engagement and family conflict
  • Readers seeking a story that connects Haitian identity and traditions with life in Miami
  • Readers interested in cultural assumptions and differing perspectives within a relationship

Book overview

When Stephanie Durant, a Haitian-born jewelry designer who recently immigrated to Miami, says yes to Patrick's marriage proposal, she knows the road ahead might not be a smooth ride. There was so much she hadn't told him-specifically about her life growing up in one of Haiti's wealthiest families, or how overbearing her parents could be, which is why she left Haiti in the first place.

 

Now Stephanie must take him to her beloved island home and reveal all, including her family's expectation that a big, traditional Haitian wedding would take place as quickly as possible. Patrick, a rising tech star thanks to his genius coding skills, has no idea what awaits him in Haiti, a place he thinks of as a dangerous third-world nation. With tensions rising between Stephanie and Patrick, as well as the whole Durant family, will their Haitian wedding even happen?
