Three Kings
Rex âTWâ McMurtryâs perpetual single-hood wouldnât bother him so much if all his ex-girlfriends didnât keep marrying the very next person they dated, especially when so many of those grooms are his closest friends. He may be a pro-football defensive end for the Chicago Squalls, but the press only wants to talk about how heâs always a groomsman and never a groom. Rex is sick of being the guy before the husband, and heâs most definitely sick of being the best man at all their weddings. Bartender Abigail McNerny is the gal-pal, the wing-woman, the she-BFF. Sheâs dated. Once. And once was more than enough. Privy to all the sad stories of her customers, âcontentment over commitmentâ is her motto, and Abby is convinced no one on earth could ever entice her into a romantic relationship . . . except that one guy sheâs loved since preschool. The guy who just walked into her bar. The guy who doesnât recognize her. The guy who is drunk and needs a ride home. The guy who has a proposition she should definitely refuse.
