Sometimes to find a happily ever after, you just have to ask ❤️🔥
Elsie Hoffman has been engaged to her college boyfriend for a year and a half. Ginny Holtz has been in love with Elsie for almost a decade and a half.
When Elsie discovers her fiancé already planned their wedding and honeymoon as a surprise and she's expected to be in a white dress in seven days, she swiftly realizes she's let herself become too comfortable with a future she never wanted. She breaks things off, and a week later is on a plane to the Caribbean for her non-refundable honeymoon with her best friend Ginny instead.
Ginny thinks it's high time Elise learned how to speak up for herself. So, they make a deal with her. For the next week, Elsie can have whatever she wants, wherever, however, and whenever she wants it, as long as she asks. They never expected Elsie to want them.
What starts as choosing activities and taking selfies soon turns to toe-curling kisses and much, much more. But what happens when the honeymoon is over?
Meryl Wilsner's My Best Friend's Honeymoon is about not only learning to ask for what you want, but for the happiness you deserve.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This escapist queer contemporary from Wilsner (Cleat Cute) takes readers from snowy Minnesota to a tropical and steamy Caribbean island. Elsie's future is all figured out: she works at her family's hardware store alongside her parents and siblings, and she's engaged to her long-term boyfriend, Derrick. But as the wedding approaches, she panics, suddenly unsure if this is the life she wants. Only after calling things off does she learn that their Caribbean honeymoon package is nonrefundable, so she invites her lifelong best friend, Ginny, to come along with her. What follows is a fairly predictable and trope-heavy friends-to-lovers story against a gorgeous backdrop: Elsie and Ginny, it turns out, have been mutually pining for each other since high school, but not wanting to ruin their friendship, have kept their feelings hidden. Ginny, who is fat and nonbinary, makes a refreshing protagonist, especially as, through Elsie's eyes, Wilsner makes their attractiveness perfectly clear. The matter-of-fact queer representation enhances the solidly constructed, if unsurprising, plot. Wilsner's fans and anyone looking for nonbinary romance will want to check this out.
