A safety-conscious residence hall director who lives by the rules (specifically her rules). A homicide detective who has always wanted her to let him be her safe place. One wedding date that will change everything.
Mel King and Noah Anderson have been best friends for forever. Diapers? They wore them together. Science projects? They aced them together. Adulthood? Still doing life together.
But Noah has a secret. Despite the fact that Mel brother-zoned him a long time ago he still can't seem to stop himself from loving her. So when Mel asks him to attend a wedding with her in hopes of fending off another man's unwanted advances, Noah jumps at the opportunity to be her fake date. Faking it until he makes it has never sounded so appealing...but he's ready to not be faking it--or hiding it--anymore. This could finally be his opportunity to tell her the truth, and he's ready for it.
But when one of Mel's residents is found murdered in a dressing room at the wedding venue, Noah's confession takes a backseat to a very personal murder investigation. With various leads and clues pointing them in all different directions, can Noah and Mel solve the case before the murderer strikes again?
And is there a right time during a murder investigation to tell someone you love them? After all, a murder investigation is a far less romantic setting than a wedding...or is it?
