Rules of Friendship
by C.A. Harms
Blurb:
As a guy, the number one rule to being best friends with a girl should be simple…
Never, and I do mean never, fall in love with her.
Oh and you should never fantasize about her either.
Believe me, that situation can get messy really fast and leave you with nothing but one hell of an awkward mess on your hands—literally.
Reese and I have been through everything together; our bond is deep. But I am going down fast, and I fear there is no way to stop it. I spend most of my time hiding my body’s reaction to her because like I said: just friends.
But things are changing. We are changing.
I no longer see her as just Reese, my best friend. When I look at her now, I see a gorgeous woman that takes my breath away. I see my future. But what if she doesn’t see me the same way?
I can’t risk losing her…
The fear of screwing everything up is excruciating. So that’s why I have chosen to stick to the rules. The Rules of Friendship that is.
She was off limits. Plain and simple.
But then in she walks wearing her tiny shorts and those tight tops. Come on, a guy can only have so much restraint before he caves…
Favorite Quotes:
I’ve known her since I was two. At one point in our lives we took baths together. What I wouldn’t give to take a bath together now.
We made a pact when we were ten… with spit and everything.
I never thought I’d be walking in on a jerking session with you stroking your prized pony.
It’s like seeing a two-headed snake or a purple elephant.
Oh please! She would so choose me over you. Chicks before dicks, you know.
My Review:
Written in my favorite dual POV, I enjoyed this quick and lively NA read featuring life-long childhood friends finally stepping up and taking the risk to be - more. Dawson was a modern-day sexy white knight type who worked for fire and rescue while sharing an apartment with female veterinary student Reese, who had been his best friend since the age of two. Their friendship turned relationship was fun and lively with easy teasing and playful banter and was only in the initial stages of “more,” which included a bit steamy sensuality when in the process of assisting someone else the perfect Dawson took a brief tour to the Land of Moron.
That hero gene can certainly make for a mess, but so can being excessively stubborn and angsty – which was extremely ugly and led to despair and heartbreak all around. I could have done with far less of the doleful and dismal but thankfully the sun returned the sky and despite Reese’s extended stay in the town of Butt-Hurt & Mulish Obstinance, and Dawson’s brief penchant for bending the truth - their world righted itself and Dawson was once again the thoughtful and perfect BBF. I really liked Dawson, despite his Pinocchio nose.
