Rita didn't see it coming. In the space of a few days, she loses her job, her partner of years, and — thanks to a landlord cashing out — her apartment. Late forties, and suddenly she has nothing left to lose.
Ernesto didn't see it coming either. Talked into standing up at his best friend's wedding to confess a fake love and stop it, he ends up with a black eye courtesy of the bride, a viral video, and an eviction notice from the roommates he used to call friends.
Two strangers, two spectacular disasters, one bar table and a few too many drinks. By the time the hangover wears off, Rita and Ernesto have decided there's only one sane response to losing everything: get paid to ruin other people's weddings.
As their business takes off across Spain's summer wedding circuit, so does something neither of them ordered — a friendship that keeps threatening to become more, no matter how loudly the twenty-year age gap objects. Somewhere between the chaos, the revenge, and the runaway brides, Rita and Ernesto start rebuilding the lives they thought had ended — and discover that the wreckage might be exactly where they needed to start.
