The Best Man

Fresh off a Pulitzer Prize win and a divorce, Harper Stewart is embracing his next chapter. Living the high life in a Brooklyn penthouse and working on a film adaptation of his book, he seems to have it all—except the creative spark he once relied on.

On the West Coast, Jordan Armstrong has escaped the pressures of New York and the lingering tension with Harper. Now living in a luxurious Malibu retreat, she appears to be thriving—but beneath the polished exterior, she feels adrift, still tethered to the past and struggling to find true peace.

Halfway across the world in Ghana, Robyn has reinvented herself as a free-spirited restaurateur, finally finding balance and independence. But when a charming local entrepreneur disrupts her hard-won calm—and her daughter Mia reaches out to Harper in secret—Robyn’s carefully rebuilt world starts to crack.

In Book One of The Best Man trilogy, Harper, Jordan, and Robyn attempt to heal old wounds, build new lives, and discover whether love—no matter how complicated—can truly endure. With help from their lifelong friends Quentin, Shelby, Lance, Murch, and Candace, they navigate heartbreak, humor, and hope in a powerful story that proves sometimes, life’s second act is the one that matters most.
