Karen is a widower with a young daughter trying to make ends meet when an old friend from college re-enters her life.  Her friend Jim proposes an arrangement that could really help Karen out.  By moving into a large three bedroom apartment with him Karen will save money and have a reliable babysitter.  Karen has specific wishes for this arrangement; no sleepovers with significant others, no sex, and equal responsibilities.  There seems to be no problem with these conditions because neither has any romantic feelings for the other.The most difficult thing about living with Jim becomes seeing how little his girlfriend really cares about him.  Karen doesn't know how to approach Jim about this without sounding jealous.  One of the tough things for Karen is being without her husband but she isn't quite ready to move on until she meets Mark.  He appears to be the perfect guy for her until she sees his true colors.  It took being with a man like Mark for Karen to realize who was right for her.It was kind of hard to review Karen's Best Friend because of the short choppy style it was written in.  I felt that the storyline had real potential to be developed into a good romance book.  The characters needed more background information in order for the reader to get deeply emotionally connected to it.  I think changing to writing style to one that flows better would help a lot as well.Visit us at Fairytales4grownups.com for the full review and everything Romance Novels like many more reviews and our blog.In full disclosure I received this book for free to review.
