Bryan Flynn loves to catch fish on the Yellow River in Florida's Panhandle. He loves to drive couples to and from their weddings in his limo and he loves to stay out of people's business until one day he receives a gift that turns his world inside out. Bryan discovers that he knows something about every bride and groom he meets. Something that they desperately need to know. And he does not want to tell them.
The author’s characterization captured the local color of the Crestview area. The plot was engaging with an underlying philosophical bent. If you are interested in a delightful and quick read, then WEDDING DAY is the book for you.
What a delightful book! Once I started reading "Wedding Day" it was difficult to put down because I wanted to see what would happen next in this zany/humorous/magical/romance story. Bryan Flynn, the protagonist, is a wedding day limo driver and fisherman extraordinaire in the Florida Panhandle. Bryan is a simple man who leads a simple life until he is struck by lightening and acquires the "gift" of hearing an other-worldly voice that tells him whether or not a couple should marry. There are many hilarious situations that occur with Bryan's gift/curse, but the highlight of the book is Bryan himself! Ostensibly a simple man who doesn't plan past today, Bryan exhibits wisdom, a sense of gratefulness, and a profound understanding of right and wrong without being judgmental or didactic. And he conveys this simply - without a college degree or monetary riches. Amidst this highly entertaining and humorous read is a character who provides a breath of fresh air. Highly recommended.
