Elizabeth Bemis

I loved this book! It's a friends to lovers book which I always seem to enjoy. Gracie & Joe have been friends since 1st grade and have had their ups and downs. Finally, they both come to realize that they are in love with each other but are afraid of messing up their friendship. Their journey is fun, funny, sexy, scary and heartwarming. Great ending too! Love this series so far. Can't wait to read the next one.

I received a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.

She was wonderful and should have dumped Quinn when he kept putting her at arm's length because of what others said. That drives me crazy in BBW romance. Although I did enjoy her breaking into her house when she locked herself out. That was realistic and funny. She did and thought what I would.… (más)
