I am a huge Sandra Ross fan and love how she is able to take a great story and infuse this with love and humor. After reading, "Love's Lightning: Love at First Sight Story" I was still in the mood for something along the same lines. The love triangle in which someone is going to get hurt, yet the love is true love and the people are each other's soul mate. That is when I ran across "More than Friends" by Monique DeVere. The basic story line of this is one guy, one girl in love and has a ton of passion for one another, yet there is something in the way.Lily and Justin are in the spot most people would hate to find themselves in. Justin just broke up with Lily's best friend and the underlying reason was that he wanted Lily. Meanwhile, Lily has had a few drinks, upset that her best friend has been dumped and decides to send Justin a message, so she takes off to his apartment. This is a bad idea given the two have such chemistry, but Lily and Justin are simply meant to be. The situation is one in which most people can relate to in one way or the other. However, what makes this a page-turner is the passion the two have for one another even though they know this is territory, which could make them lose all the friends they have. It is the classic decision between loyalty to one's friends or following one's heart. It is one book; you are going to love to read!
