Mariel's Marriage Mayhem — Marcia Carrington

On the day of her wedding, feisty Mariel Crain discovers that her fiancé, Duane Davenport, has been carrying on an affair with best friend Melissa Meadows behind her back. All hell breaks loose at the church, as Mariel gives Duane and Melissa a piece of her mind, to mother Aretha's delight, who never liked Duane.

Mariel is comforted by Duane's best friend Damian Anders, the man who exposed his shenanigans. Wanting to seek revenge for Damian's betrayal, the wily Duane concocts a plot involving Damian's lifelong friend Sawyer Mandrell, but will this bring him closer to Mariel, or drive an even bigger wedge between them?
