The Wedding Planner's Daughter by Coleen Murtagh Paratore
Twelve-year-old Willa Havisham loves the sea, and books, and eating chocolate-coated cherries. But what she'd love more than anything is a dad. It's a shame her mum, Stella, is so unromantic - even though she's a wedding planner! So when Stella falls for the poet next door, Willa can't believe her luck. But then everything starts to go wrong . . .
Can Willa put things right and get her mum to say, 'I do'?
