I’m the maid of honor at my best friend’s wedding

And I’m shamelessly in love with the father of the bride

I’ve been in love with Ford since I wore braces. My best friend Kat’s dad, twenty-six years older, stupidly handsome, and the one man I was never allowed to want.

This wedding weekend is killing me tasting cake with him, watching him watch me in a backless dress, and then that moonlit moment that turned into his hand under my skirt while everyone we love danced a few feet away.

Ford Mercer—fifty-two, millionaire, the silver fox every woman in the city swears they’ve had… except none of them have. Turns out he hasn’t touched anyone since his wife died fifteen years ago.

He’s been waiting.

For me.

If Kat ever finds out what we did, what we’re doing, how we feel… she’ll never speak to either of us again.

But Ford says he doesn’t care about rules, age gaps, or lifelong friendships.

He says I’ve always been his future—and he’s ready to prove it.

But then I see something I shouldn’t, something I can’t believe, and everything I know and love about Ford Mercer is called into question.

Is my best friend’s dad the man I’ve been in love with, or someone else entirely?

Father of the Bride is a contemporary, millionaire romance featuring a large age gap between the MCs, and it explores OM/OW drama without any elements of cheating. It is an interconnected standalone and book two in the series A Family Affair.
