Serena Blake plans perfect Manhattan weddings under the city’s dazzling skyline—yet her own heart has been locked away ever since her public proposal went viral… for all the wrong reasons. For Serena, love is a forecast she’s learned to ignore, filling her days with rooftop vows, fairy lights, and flawless events for everyone but herself.
But when a summer thunderstorm leaves her stranded, the last person she expects to save her is Noah Keller—a charming, weather-obsessed podcaster with a knack for turning ordinary days extraordinary. One bright red umbrella and a chance encounter spark a whirlwind friendship that starts to chip away at Serena’s carefully guarded world. As Noah’s sunny optimism collides with Serena’s raincloud of doubts, she’s forced to choose between clinging to the past or risking it all for something unpredictable.
Set against the electric backdrop of New York City, Red Umbrellas: A Forecast of Love is a witty, heartfelt romantic comedy about letting go of old storms, daring to hope for blue skies, and finding the courage to dance in the rain. If you love strong, relatable heroines, offbeat meet-cutes, and a city that feels like its own character, this laugh-out-loud, heart-melting romance will leave you believing in second chances and serendipitous love.
