ABOUT THE BOOK:
Am I fake dating my best friend? Hear me out…
So I’m throwing myself a breakup party, a glittery fete where I envision I’ll lift a glass and celebrate being free and single again.
What I actually do: Drink too much champagne and blurt out to my best guy friend that I’d really like to get back on the horse.
But what I truly don’t expect is Carter’s answer – he volunteers as tribute.
With his sinful brown eyes and too-good-to-be-true body it’d be no hardship for me to say yes, though I certainly don’t want him to feel obligated to, um, service me, just because my failed, loveless marriage was a s-e-x desert.
But since the charming and confident pro football star owes five public dates to his dating app sponsor, we make a deal to help each other out.
Pretty soon, our public how to date lessons turn into, ahem, very private ones. And I’m a star student, graduating quickly from flirty banter and lingering looks to toe-curling, sheet-grabbing, mind-blowing hours of physical education.
The problem? Turns out learning to date again feels a lot like the real thing. Can our friendship withstand all these late-night bedroom sessions?
Especially since I’m suddenly longing for my best friend and there’s nothing fake about my feelings…

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I had the bestest of best times reading this story! #truth I laughed from the moment I started reading, and no joke, did not stop till the end. Sometimes it was LOL and sometimes it was just smiling but I felt good the entire time! #readinggoals
Friends to more is one of my favorite tropes in romance because it comes with a built-in history between the two MCs. The author doesn’t have to take time on the page building a friendship as well as a romance which leaves more room in the story for the build of the romance and the more you build that aspect, the more likely the reader is to believe and root for the inevitable HEA. It’s also one of my favorite tropes to read by LB because she does it so well! She did not skimp on her talents with this story!
This was a fun-filled, low-angst, highly emotional in the best kind of way, carefree, sexy story everyone should take a few hours to enjoy!
