Real people - great story

Who hasn't known someone who decided it was past time to get married? Jack and Marcy have been best friends forever but not "like that". Marcy gets engaged to a perfectly pleasant man - who would do....Jack realizes that he loves his best friend. Since I married my best friend - I loved this "coming to realize" story - and found the characters to be real and fascinating.A wonderful read - Thanks!

The Bride's Best Man

Marcy Winters is planning a wedding with the assistance of the man she adores. One small problem. The love of her life isn't the groom. Jack Rathert is her childhood friend, a buddy she shares her secrets with. This is the guy she goes to when she needs to get away from it all in a secluded fishing boat. Roger, the sophisticated one with polish and high-earning potential, is Marcy's fiancé. As Jack feels the sudden threat of losing Marcy, he acknowledges his real affection for the woman he never allowed himself to esteem as more than a companion and confidante. This awakening elicits the worst and best behavior in both. Humorous, touching, and full of sincerity at its most intimate moments, this story will make every reader see the so-called platonic friend in a different light. Though written in a lighthearted, entertaining manner, the novel explores deeper social issues with skill. Former Meteor author Laura Phillips delivers a beautiful romance for those who believe marriage is based on common interest, not gender-defining roles. Exceptional.
