I listened to The Best Man: Unfinished Business by Malcolm D. Lee, Jayne Allen and Narrated by
January LaVoy, Jakobi Diem, Zenzi Williams via Audiobook.
I'm a Best Man fan. I loved both movies and the mini-series. To be honest, I only got Peacock so I could watch the mini-series.
Unfinished Business was not what I expected. I missed that this was Book 1 of The Best Man trilogy. So that is why I was upset when the "Unfinished Business" was solved, but new unfinished business started as a cliffhanger. The novel was to long, almost 16 hours in the Audiobook was just to long for me. I felt things could have been cut out.
I loved that Jordan and Harper finally got together but didn't expect it to be only 15 days. I still don't understand Harper leaving to help his daughter translated in Jordan's head, to Harper not wanting to commit. I was happy that Harper tried to call, email, send flowers to Jordan even though Jordan did not respond and blocked Harper.
Harper going to Ghana helped him tremendously. I wasn't expecting Harper and Robyn to deal with their Unfinished Business: Solomon. But I'm glad they did. Harper finally faced issues he never wanted to address. I understand Harper and Robyn having sex to finally close their marriage. Getting a divorce doesn't mean a marriage is over. A divorce means a marriage is only over in legal terms not the husband and wife are over each other.
I love Harper friends: Lance, Quintin and Murch. They are great friends. They always give him the truth, tell him when he has done bad, called him out when he needed it and they always shared their love with him. I love how they waited for Harper to show his love for Jordan before they told him she moved to Chicago.
I'm glad Harper proposed. It definitely shocked Jordan but they love each other and need to be happily married.
I'm glad Robyn realized what was important in her life and that she closed her large restaurant and opened a smaller beach front restaurant. I definitely agree with Robyn, Kwesi should have told her he was still married just separated from his wife.
I don't believe I will keep reading The Best Man trilogy. Book 1 didn't keep me engaged to see what happens in Book 2/3. I just wanted it to have a great ending from a story that started in 1999 (26 years ago).
