The Weddings
by
This is the fourth story in the Amazon Original Stories Inheritance Collection that I’ve read and I was not disappointed. Forty two year old, Jack, a gay man is invited to attend his first gay wedding by his boyfriend, Caleb. Jack is surprised at how it makes him feel and he begins to think about marriage in ways he never has before. It’s the second wedding, a heterosexual one of an old college friend, though, that illicited for Jack (and me) the most thought provoking things. Relationships of the past and how much they remain a part of who one is, self discovery, discovery that some you loved is not who you thought they were, cultural identity, and of course love and marriage. This may still be available on NetGalley and will be available on Amazon kindle for $.99. A good deal for a worthwhile story.
I received an advanced copy of this short story from Amazon Original Stories through NetGalley.

Thanks, Cheri, me, too. I’ve read 4 of them and liked them all.
Suzy, thanks very much .
May have to check these out. Nice review, Angela.
Well said, Angela. There were a lot of layers in this to all of the relationships involved, even the families of the wedding party. I told my husband about this story, because we were driving the other day talking about his best friend who is about to get married and all of the preparation going into it. Compared to our wedding that was in our home lol.
Thanks,Paige . Definitely many facets to this story.
Diane , thanks. Well worth reading. I’ve read 4 of the 5 . There’s one by Jennifer Haigh but not sure if I’ll read that one . The others were fantastic.
Holly , hope you enjoy!
Thanks, Mary Beth !
Wonderful review, Angela!
Thanks very much, Brenda and Julie !
Great review. You are really enjoying these! 🌞🌹
TQ, thanks! I’ve read 4 and all have been fantastic.
Angelo great review! This one sounds so good!
An interesting and enticing review, Angela. I’d love to read this and the other stories in the Inheritance Collection.
Thanks, Berit and Laysee. Laysee, these stories are exceptional!
Great review, Angela! I’ve only read The Lion's Den and sadly for me it was just 3 stars. Liked it but didn’t love it. Ready for the others, though! Glad this one continued your streak for the collection.
Thanks, Debbie. Hope this one works !
A fine review, Angela!! I really loved this story!
Thanks, Christine. Glad you enjoyed it!
