"Bursting with laughs and so much love, Sidney Karger's debut novel delivers a truly refreshing spin on the romantic comedyโฆA big-hearted, feel-good summer escape."โAnderson Cooper, #1 New York Times bestselling author and journalist
When two best men in a wedding party fall for each other, they realize love isnโt a piece of cake in this hilarious and heartfelt romantic comedy debut by screenwriter Sidney Karger.
Max Moody thought he had everything figured out. Heโs trying to live his best life in New York City and has the best friend a gay guy could ask for: Paige. She and Max grew up next door to each other in the suburbs of Chicago. She can light up any party. She finishes his sentences. Sheโs always a reliable splunch (they donโt like to use the wordย brunch) partner. But then Maxโs whole world is turned upside down when Paige suddenly announces some huge news: sheโs engaged and wants Max to be her man of honor. Max was always the romantic one who imagined he would get married before the unpredictable Paige and is shocked to hear sheโs ready to settle down. But it turns out thereโs not just one new man in Paigeโs lifeโthere are two.
There's the groom, Austin, whoโs a perfectly nice guy. Then there's his charming, fun and ridiculously handsome gay younger brother, Chasten, who is Austin's best man. As Paigeโs wedding draws closer, Max, the introverted Midwesterner, and Chasten, the social butterfly East Coaster, realize theyโre like oil and water. Yet they still have to figure out how to coexist in Paigeโs life while not making her wedding festivities all about them. But can the tiny romantic spark between these two very different guys transform their best man supporting roles into the leading best men in each otherโs lives?
