Ooo, sorry, I meant mother-in-law. Nor has she heard of the term, what the bride wants, the bride gets .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith wedding planning underway and a short timeline, my best friend, Lia, has recruited me to help her battle the snarly beast that is Mrs. Beaver. Not scared at all, I accept the challenge as her man-in-waiting--aka, man of honor--and take matters into my own hands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe only problem is, with every second we draw closer to the wedding, I'm starting to see my best girl in a different light.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShe's always been beautiful to me, but now . . . I find myself staring a touch too long. My hand lingering for one more minute. And when she's upset? Allowing her to sleep in my bed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd before I know what's happening, it hits me like a ton of bricks. I'm in love with my best friend. Not just in love, but infatuated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo one compares to her and nothing seems to distract me from that realization.\u003cbr\u003eNot the girl I try to date while I help plan Lia's wedding.\u003cbr\u003eNot her angry fiancé who thinks I'm growing too close.\u003cbr\u003eAnd not the looming deadline of her nuptials.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhich means, there's only one thing left for me to do. Prove to Lia I'm the one she should be with instead. But with the pressure of her engagement, the stress from her soon-to-be mother-in-law, and the breath-stealing nerves running through me, I'm finding it a lot harder to claim the girl than I would like to admit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSay a little prayer for me . . .\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Willow Avenue Boutique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48165870895336,"sku":null,"price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/1551\/1729\/files\/6E339B00-D87C-4CE3-AC33-F783C06E51DD.jpg?v=1775792657","url":"https:\/\/willowavenueboutique.com\/products\/a-long-time-coming","provider":"Willow Avenue Boutique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
