Grayson Lynford has something to hide.  As a professional rugby player if it were ever to get out that he’s gay his career could end.  Still, the worst part is hiding his attraction for fellow teammate Jesse Peters, who is straight as an arrow.  While attending the wedding of his best friend, Grayson has been assigned to share a room with Jesse and the experience has been pure torture for him.  But a building intrigue about pictures of the bride and groom being sold to the tabloids might just be enough to distract him.

Jesse Peters has been lusting after Grayson for a long time.  So much so that he finds himself having vivid erotic dreams about the man and waking up calling Grayson’s name.  How will he keep himself from giving himself away when he is sharing a room with Grayson?

Best Man is an entertaining book about two men who live hiding who they are, but still looking for love and companionship.  Grayson and Jesse have their moments of angst while dealing with the issue of hiding whom they love, but all in all they manage to have plenty of erotic moments.  Grayson is full of insecurities and while he finds it hard to trust, Grayson still reaches out to Jesse with hope for their possible future.  Jesse is funny and charming while very much remaining an Alpha man.  During their encounters you will find yourself overheating as a result of the scorching passion these men share.  However, the flow of the story was a little rough, the dialogue didn’t feel natural and I felt the conflict was resolved in a hasty manner.  I wished to have seen a little of the consequences of this weekend romp.  Still, I liked Best Man and it’s a good read for a day at the beach.
