Beyond friendship

Merry McBride is a beautiful and intelligent veterinarian who has always been able to count on friends and family until the day her friend and fiance, Thomas, runs out on her on their wedding day. Nick Kincaid is the steady and dependable town sheriff who has loved Merry since high school and has been best friends with her and Thomas since childhood. Their amiable triangle breaks apart when Thomas humiliates Merry in front of the entire town and leaves Nick in the difficult position of having to comfort and reassure her. Thomas's betrayal splinters their friendship in so many ways that it seems irreparable. But repair it Turner does by the story's end. If their friendship has not been restored completely, it has made something of a start in that direction. But more importantly, the fracture makes it possible for Nick to illustrate that he truly is the best man for our heroine to marry and not to fulfill the role in her wedding to another man. I think Nick Kincaid is a hero to be admired for his patience and his unconditional love. I think it is important to stress just how unconditional and unselfish that love is. Nick is a man of action, not in a flashy sense but in an understated one. He illustrates his love for Merry by simply being the friend he has always been to her. Merry is an admirable heroine in the sense that she is never truly confused about where she stands with her ex-fiance. Instead, the author does a great job of emphasizing her gradual awareness of Nick as their friendship develops into something deeper.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!

What would you do if you were jilted on your wedding day? What would you do if the best man, your best friend, the guy you grew up with, suddenly looked "different'? What would you do if he suddenly told you that he'd loved you all his life and wants you to be his forever? And what would you do if out of the blue your runaway groom comes back to claim you once more? Well, thank God it's not our problem, but Molly's in Linda Turner's, THE BEST MAN, who happens to be gorgeous, brown-eyed, be-there-for-you-always, town sheriff, Nick. If you're dying to find out who Molly choses, get this book! It's worth it. Trust me! Luciano
