Looking for a Romantic Comedy Novel? Check out The Wedding Beat by Devan Sipher!

The Wedding Beat is a New York story of boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy assigned to write article about girl’s wedding!

The Wedding Beat introduces Gavin Greene, a wedding columnist for “The Paper” who, despite the nature of his journalistic beat, has not been able to find the woman of his dreams.

And then he does.  At a New Years Day party, he meets Melinda – smart, funny and beautiful.  And then he loses her.

As he combs the street of New York City looking for the woman who got away, Gavin continues to cover weddings (some outrageous, some poignant, all hysterical), mourning the loss of what could be the right relationship for him, Gavin’s misery is compounded by dysfunctional parents, his serial monogamist brother and a best friend whose love life failures rival his own.
When Gavin does, against the odds, find Melinda, the circumstances could not be worse:  he has been assigned by The Paper to cover her wedding.

In The Wedding Beat, first – time novelist and wedding reporter for The New York Times, Devan Sipher offers a humorous look at a perspective readers don’t often see (or even consider):  the funny, smart, attractive male who is unlucky in love. With empathy, style and a whole lot of humor, Devan Sipher has created a protagonist you’ll be routing for, and a novel you won’t want to put down – but which will leave you smiling once you do.

Devan Sipher has been writing about weddings for The New York Times’ “Vows” column for more than five years. He received an M.F.A. from the Tisch School of the Arts at NYU. After brief stints in medical school and rabbinical school, Sipher pursued a journalism career, landing at the New York Times as the only unmarried male working in the weddings section. Sipher lives in New York City and is single.  Visit his website at http://www.devansipher.com/.
