Title:
A Long Time Coming: The funny and steamy romcom inspired by My Best Friend's Wedding from the bestselling author

Condition: BRAND NEW
Format: Paperback

Overview:
Ophelia dives into wedding planning with a sparkle of optimism, only to collide with the chaos of a mother-in-law from hell and the pressure of saying “I do.” Her ten-year-best-friend, Breaker, steps up to be her devoted “man in waiting,” a role he takes with surprising seriousness. But as the ceremony draws near, the lines between friendship and something deeper begin to blur. Breaker’s steady confidence hides a fluttering ache he can’t ignore—a pull toward Ophelia that isn’t about nerves or ritual, but genuine, undeniable attraction. Meghan Quinn threads a playful, razor-sharp voice through a tender, swoon-worthy romance that’s not afraid to surprise you. Inspired by the classic My Best Friend’s Wedding premise, A Long Time Coming delivers bold banter, blistering chemistry, and a warm, hopeful heart. It’s a witty, steam-kissed ride that balances heat with heart, making every page feel like a favorite moment you’ll want to reread again and again.

What Makes This Book Stand Out:
Meghan Quinn has a knack for turning familiar rom-com tropes into vibrant, modern love stories, and A Long Time Coming is no exception. The fake-relationship tension is grounded in real emotion, creating a believable—yet deliciously spicy—romance between Ophelia and Breaker. The author’s sharp humor lands with precision, delivering clever punchlines without sacrificing depth or character growth. The narrative voice feels intimate, allowing readers to ride the crush of first flirtation to the warmth of a true connection. The premise, rooted in wedding chaos and family dynamics, offers relatable stakes—community, commitment, and the courage to choose love when it’s unexpected. Readers craving heart, heat, and humor will find a satisfying, page-turning experience that also respects the emotional gravity of choosing between friendship and forever.

Who This Book Is Perfect For:
This romcom is ideal for adult readers who adore contemporary romance with bite-sized wit and big heart. It’s a perfect pick for fans of Meghan Quinn’s signature style, BookTok romance fans, and anyone who loves friends-to-lovers energy with a wedding-day backdrop. Great for weekend reading, vacation rereads, or gifting to a reader who loves a clever heroine, supportive best friends, and a hero who isn’t afraid to admit his feelings. Suitable for those seeking a steamy, heartfelt, standalone romance that blends humor with sincere emotion in a single, satisfying read.

• Witty, contemporary rom-com voice with warmth and sarcasm in equal measure

• Lockstep pacing that builds tension without sacrificing tenderness
