 The father of the bride is off-limits, which should make this week at the wedding simple. It does not. Between surviving rehearsal dinners, managing my flamboyant best friend Jones, and resisting the urge to strangle my ex-husband Jaxon Moore, Hollywood’s favorite man-child, I am already failing spectacularly before London Pierce enters the picture. He is charming, shamelessly flirty, and has decided I am his favorite new distraction, leaving me white-knuckling my way through cocktails, family drama, and far too many stolen glances at the one man who should come with a warning label. This was supposed to be about the bride and groom. Instead, it is about temptation, bad decisions, and how many shots it takes to survive falling for the most forbidden man in the room. 

 Three years after one drunken night shattered everything, Marley Moore returns home for his mother’s wedding carrying secrets no one in his family knows: a new life in New Orleans, a Michelin-star career, and a marriage that was never supposed to exist. But the secret he cannot outrun is Jones, the man who has been everything to Sevynn Moore and the one piece of the past Marley never survived losing. As the wedding week unfolds, old wounds reopen, long-buried truths claw to the surface, and the Moore–Pierce family’s foundation begins to fracture under the weight of forbidden history, unspoken desire, and the terrifying question of what love really looks like when it refuses to fit inside clean lines. The Best Man is a sharp, emotionally charged story of found family, identity, and choosing each other again and again, even when it hurts. 

 They were supposed to come home from Vegas with memories, maybe a hangover, and absolutely not whatever this is, but Remi and Marley barely make it through the front door before it becomes clear that last night did not stay contained. With Derrick suspicious, Simone watching, Sloane far too pleased, and a family already stretched thin, what started as a good idea quickly becomes a full-scale crisis as everyone is swept off to a honeymoon retreat called The Guest Book to celebrate Sev, London, and Jones. Instead of peace, they find blurred boundaries, rising tempers, too much history in one place, and the inescapable truth that in this family love never follows the itinerary. It gets loud, it gets complicated, and once everyone checks in at The Guest Book, there is no checking out of the mess.
