About The Best Men

The Best Men is a M/M romance Sarina Bowen co-wrote with fellow bestselling author Lauren Blakely, built around a pair of best friends serving as best men at a mutual friend's wedding who realize their own feelings for each other run deeper than friendship over the course of the celebration. Super Hot Wingman is a free prequel novella that sets up the pairing and the wedding-party premise; The Best Men is the full-length novel that follows through on it.

As a two-author collaboration outside both writers' main series, it leans into a lighter, banter-driven tone -- close male friendship turning romantic under wedding-weekend pressure -- rather than the workplace or small-town stakes of Bowen's other series.
