A best friend is someone you can always rely on, someone you can confide in and trust, someone who indefinitely has your back throughout all the ups and downs in life. And I'm lucky to have a best friend since childhood in someone like Jake—my ride or die, my lifelong pal, my other half (who I'm secretly in love with). There's nothing he wouldn't do for me, and there's nothing I wouldn't do for him, so when he calls me one night to take an impromptu trip to his girlfriend's college based off some bad hunches he has, I decide it's within my duties as his best friend to accompany him. To support and help him become the sleuth he needs to be in order to discover his girlfriend's potential infidelities. So I go. I take the ride with him, cruising through the hot night on a spontaneous adventure, all while a rare, once-in-a-lifetime astronomical event takes place. Jacob's Comet appears in the night sky for the first time in over seven hundred years, and it makes this road trip feel a lot more fated than I thought it was going to be. I love my best friend, and I'd do anything for him. If only he knew how much better I could treat him than his girlfriend, how much love I could bestow upon him if he only let me, then maybe we could become more than just friends. Something destined and everlasting and honest. But who knows? Maybe with a little help from Jacob's Comet, our timelines can change. Our futures can collide from a twist of fate. All I know is that as long as I'm with Jake, then all is right in the world. And nothing can ever change that. Jacob's Comet is a standalone, MM first time, friends to lovers romance story about a miraculous astronomical event, a road trip between two friends, a temporary heartbreak, and the unexpected love that blooms because of it with a HEA.
