Ok I admit when I started this book I wasn't sure what to expect. After a few pages I put it back on my tbr list. I didn't really feel it at first but I decided to try it again a few days later. I'm glad I did. So Valentina (Tina) Tomic is the the owner of Sarifa boutique. Despite overcoming a tragic incident she is funny, nice, and is a sweet as pie or should I say sweet as a cupcake (seriously I want all her recipes). Plus she makes up the craziest of non -curse word-curse words! Being the nice girl that she is she gives a candy gift to the slightly grumpy Nikolai Leokov (Nik) who she sees everyday while he's on his break. Being the sweetie that's she is is she decides to send him candy to cheer him. He thinks she wants to date him and he doesn't doing dating. Anyways she instantly friend-zones him. "Did I, did I just get friend zoned?" So over weeks they form a close friendship, they talk, hang out, and just have fun. Add in his sweet brother Max, cousin Trick, and best friend Ghost (who is such a grump at first), plus Tina's best friend Nat, Lola, and Mimi they are a great bunch. Eventually Tina and Nik develop feelings for each other and become a couple. I love how hey interact with each other and their friends, who are more like family. They both have secrets that they eventually do share but they are surprisingly honest and forgiving of each other. There is a little drams in there but they do get a hea. I loved all the characters especially Nat, plus Max and CeeCee (she is such a sweet little girl. I so hope Max gets his own book!
