Taken in by an elderly neighbour, GRACE falls in love with the old woman’s nephew, who stands by her through the pregnancy and birth.

Synopsis - Moo is getting married, and Estela has vowed to do everything she can to give her best friend the perfect wedding.

After surviving a stalker and a serial killer, she’s sure she can face just about anything. Even Paulina Hart, Moo’s overbearing, controlling, and evil mother, who has sunk her Momzilla talons into the wedding details and is shredding everything!

To keep Moo’s dream day from chaos and ruin, Estela takes a more hands-on role in wedding planning. Between meeting her biological father and his family and a forced partnership with a dominatrix, she quickly learns that pulling off a secret, Momzilla-free wedding is near impossible.

Focusing only on Moo also pushes Estela’s other relationships, including the details of her own wedding, to the back burner. When things start falling apart at the seams, Estela realizes that she has to do something to mend the cracks in her life before she loses not only Moo, but Caleb too.
