***

Or so I thought.
As the man in the shadows, the drummer of the Darling Devils, the person I rely on most is my best friend.
That is until I discover Naomi is a liar.

A friends-to-lovers romance to the beat of the Darling Devils--the legends of music.

Excerpt
"Naomi," I greet my once upon a time best friend with a nod of my head before offering her my arm to walk down the aisle. I haven't seen her for almost three months, and I didn't think being so close to her today would hit me so hard. Nevertheless, I disregard all these feelings surging inside of me and stand still and proud like she did when she delivered her bombshell months ago.

"Nice of you to finally show up for the main event," she snarls, certainly pissed I have been ignoring her calls.

"I wouldn't have missed the wedding of one of my best friends for anything in the world." 

I see the guilt she carries being pushed down her throat. She understood my message loud and clear. It's unfortunate today I have to be here, but after missing the joint bachelor and bachelorette party, as well as all other duties a best man has, I couldn't not show up at Dan Darling's wedding.

I'm pretty sure I would have never forgiven myself for having missed it.

Naomi buckles her hand on my arm, and my skin prickles where she touches me, even through the suit Dan's mother forced us to wear.

"When you have time," she says with no emotion in her voice, "I would love to talk to you." I scoff. It's not the time or the place to square things up between us.

"Sorry, my schedule is pretty full for the next twenty years. Have you tried going through Chad?" I know she did, but Chad had the job to block her. She's had many possible ways to corner me. She's the assistant and the friend of Dan's very-soon-to-be wife and considered a friend of my bandmates, but because she didn't want to tell her secret to Anna, she couldn't explain why we were on non-speaking terms. So, she pretended we were fine, just a little fight against friends. Dan and Art know me better than that. You don't create music with two guys from over twenty-five years without them realizing something is broken inside you.
