GR's Summary:
Avery Yeung’s biological clock just went off early. Thanks to her family’s medical history, she’s running out of time to get knocked up. And the only guy within donating distance? Her overprotective—and irritatingly hot—best friend. So clearly she needs an anonymous donor…
Anonymous donor? Over Sheriff Drew Flannery’s dead body. While daddyhood will never be in the cards for a man with his past, Drew won’t let Avery shop for a “popsicle pop.” He’ll do what’s right for his best friend by doing his best friend. But only if they do it properly.
But there’s nothing “proper” about it. Between the bed, the kitchen counter, and against his squad car, Avery and Drew are having the hottest sex ever. They can’t get enough of it—or each other. And without knowing it, they’ve crossed the one line that could ruin their friendship forever…

My Thoughts:
Falling for His Best Friend is the first book that I've read by Katee Robert, and let me tell you it was one very hot Brazen Romance! Even though this is a series, Falling for His Best Friend can be read as a standalone.
This steamy story is told from the dual perspectives of main characters, Avery Yeung, and sexy small town sheriff, Drew Flannery. Avery and Drew are best friends and have a very special and unique bond. Even though they both secretively share an attraction to one another, they have never acted on it, because they value their friendship too much to jeopardize it.
The women in Avery's family tend to have bad luck when they turn twenty eight. Her mother got Cancer and died at age twenty eight, and her sister also got Cancer, and had to get a hysterectomy at age twenty eight. Avery is twenty-seven years old. She has been waiting for Mr. Right, but never met him, and with the clock ticking away, she has decided to have a baby on her own. Her plan is to pick a donor, and get in-vitro fertile insemination.
When she tells Drew her plan, he is not too happy, and instead offers his services to impregnate her. However, while Avery is expecting to go though the clinic, Drew has other plans. Before Avery and Drew know it, they are in over their heads. One night of passion, leads to the best sex either of them have ever experienced, and change the dynamics of their relationship. Will their sexual relationship ruin the friendship that they both value above anything else, or will it open their eyes to the fact that they are meant to be...
Falling for His Best Friend was such a fast-paced, exhilarating, and sexy read. I love the friends to lovers trope! It was wonderful seeing a couple that already had such a strong bond of friendship, and emotional connection to one another. They really were perfect for each other, and I was rooting for them to take a chance on love from the very beginning of the story! I enjoyed the secondary characters, and would like to go back and read their stories in the previous segments of the series!
My Rating:
About Katee Robert:
Though she dabbled in writing, life got in the way—as it often does—and she spent a few years traveling, living in both Philadelphia and Germany. In between traveling and raising her two wee ones, she had the crazy idea that she’d like to write a book and try to get published.
Her first novel was an epic fantasy that, God willing, will never see the light of day. From there, she dabbled in YA and horror, before finally finding speculative romance. Because, really, who wouldn’t want to write entire books about the smoking-hot relationships between two people?
She now spends her time—when not lost in Far Reach worlds—playing imaginary games with her wee ones, writing, ogling men, and planning for the inevitable zombie apocalypse.
I love that you liked it. I so want to read this one now.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the concept of this one! Very interesting :) Definitely sounds like a sexy and good read! Lovely review!
ReplyDeleteI recently read my first Katee Robert book and had a similar reaction. I love the friends to lovers trope, too, and what a situation to force them to cross the line.
ReplyDeleteI've read a couple of books by this author (one currently - The Marriage Contract) and she has hot down!
ReplyDeleteI adore the friends to lovers trope and yummy military men..yes please!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a steamy, and sexy romance - I haven't really read a good NA novel lately, I read The Deal last but that was about two months ago. This one sounds awesome though, I'm glad you could enjoy it! Lovely review as always <3 Benish | Feminist Reflections
