The USA Today bestselling author of The Worst Best Man is back with a fun and flirty rom-com about a pact between friends that goes awry when one of them suddenly decides to get married. On the eve of their college graduation, best friends Javier Baez and Marisol Campos swore never to date someone the other doesn't approve of. Now, almost a decade later, Javi has a problem. Mari, the woman he's secretly pined for since sophomore year, is engaged-and Javi didn't even get the chance to vet the Pedro Pascal knockoff she plans to marry. Mari, a successful entertainment lawyer in Los Angeles, is no longer seeking Javi's dating advice or waiting for him to declare his love for her. Instead, Mari's made a different pact-with herself. And to succeed, she's vowing to build a future with someone else. With his life and theater career finally on track, Javi's ready to confess his feelings. Except Mari's changed the script and moved on without him. Javi has just six weeks to convince Mari this marriage is a flop. If that means he needs to ruffle some feathers to help Mari avert a disaster, well, he's up for the challenge. After all, isn't that what best friends are for
