What would you sacrifice for your best friend? And when does loyalty become enabling?

Jake has it all—a six-figure job, a beautiful girlfriend, and a carefully planned future. His best friend Marcus has... well, Marcus has Jake. And another Venmo request.

For twelve years, Jake has been Marcus's safety net. Late rent, car repairs, "emergency pizza situations"—Jake's always been there with his wallet open and no questions asked. That's what best friends do, right?

But when Marcus loses his job and needs a place to crash, Jake's girlfriend Sarah draws a line in the sand. Two weeks. That's all Marcus gets. And suddenly, Jake is caught between the woman he loves and the friend who's been by his side since sophomore year of high school.

As tensions rise and hard truths emerge, both Jake and Marcus are forced to confront uncomfortable questions about dependence, identity, and what it really means to help someone you love. Can their friendship survive when the money runs out? Or will it finally become something stronger?

MY BROKE BEST FRIEND is a contemporary novel about friendship, loyalty, and the messy work of growing up. It's about learning that sometimes the best way to save someone is to let them save themselves—and that the richest life isn't measured by what's in your bank account.

Perfect for fans of modern friendship stories with heart, humor, and hard-earned hope.
