The Wedding Forecast

A joyful, funny story about two people seemingly destined to not be together, for fans of Emily Henry and Rachael Johns



Buy from…

The sparkling, relatable, hilarious and sexy adult romantic comedy from the author of the much-loved It Sounded Better in My Head and Unnecessary Drama.

‘A delight. The banter is refreshingly natural and genuinely funny...A must-read for your next beach trip!’ Shameless

‘The definition of feel-good fiction. A romantic delight from cover to cover.’ Rachael Johns

Anna was never going to have an easy time at her best friend’s wedding. She’s the bridesmaid; her ex, Joel, is a groomsman. But she’s determined to get through the festivities with a smile on her face. Despite the fact that Joel is bringing his new partner, Bianca. Despite the fact she’s stuck sharing a house with the newly in-love couple. And despite the fact Anna has just turned thirty and her life is not exactly where she thought it would be by now. Anna has all her feelings completely under control—right up until the moment Joel drops a bombshell that rocks her to her core.

She needs a distraction, and Patrick, the wedding photographer, just might be the solution. Everyone has decided he is perfect for her. He is perfect for her. But the arrival of Mac, a not-quite-famous actor who has flown in from New York, complicates everything.

Nina Kenwood hits the spot with her first novel for adults. Laugh-out-loud funny with chemistry that jumps off the page, The Wedding Forecast is the romcom you’ve been waiting to fall in love with.

‘Romantic comedy perfection! Filled with charm, humour and pure heart…A feel-good romantic comedy that is a love letter to writing, bookstores, bookselling and what it means to begin again.’ Josh Hortinela

‘Sexy, fun and hard to put down...The Wedding Forecast will be loved by fans of Emily Henry on the lookout for a cosy and dreamy wintertime romance.’ Books+Publishing

Praise for The Wedding Forecast

‘A fresh voice, and a charming story.’

Kylie Scott

‘Will have you smiling from start to finish...A must-read.’

Ramona Magazine

‘Lusciously romantic, big-hearted and life-affirming, with all the laughs, chemistry and sweetness of rom-com perfection. ’

Clare Fletcher

‘I absolutely adored this lovely and beautiful rom-com…Hooked from the beginning and I couldn’t put it down. I went from being amused to being delighted, and swooning over characters who you can’t help but become enamoured with…Simply fun to read.’

Good Reading

‘[The Wedding Forecast] boasts the author’s signature wit and humour, a cast of perfectly believable characters, whip-smart dialogue and plausible real-world situations. It’s a charming, diverting novel for readers who love contemporary rom-coms with lots of heart and laughs to match.’

Readings

‘5 stars. The definition of a warm hug in a book…My new favourite rom-com…There’s the quippy banter that makes you smile, the strong chemistry between the love interests, and characters that leave you so emotionally attached to their story.’

Modern Muse

‘Romantic comedy with a great twist…A very intelligent, kind book…What Nina Kenwood does so well is that she takes you not just into the happy endings (though there’s a lot of joy and humour), but looks at what Anna does when life doesn’t go the way she thought it would…It’s lovely.’

Michaela Kalowski, ABC TV Weekend Breakfast

‘A delight. The writing flowed nicely, the characters were loveable, and the plot was well-constructed…Kenwood orchestrates a hilarious string of debacles that made me cringe, along with sprinkling in tender moments that made me ache. The banter is refreshingly natural and genuinely funny…A must-read for your next beach trip!’

Shameless Book Club

‘[With] signature humour, warmth and charm…Made me guffaw until it made me quietly sob…It’s all delightful and joyous and you’ll cheer for these impossible-lovers and stay up way too late delighting in their happily ever after.’

Jaclyn Crupi

‘The delightful messiness of love, life and friendship makes this novel a powerful story about finding yourself and discovering what brings you joy...This novel is as much about identity and finding out who you are as it is about falling in love.’

Ashleigh Meikle, ArtsHub
