Plain Jayne was such a sweet best friends to lover’s story. The relationship between the two friends Jayne and Nick was very sweet and funny. I think I had a smile on my face for most of the book.Jayne Morgan left her home town right after high school graduation but now she is back fifteen years later. She has come back to take over her grandmothers bookstore after her death. With no family left, the only person she has to turn for help is her best friend since kindergarten, Nick. From the day they became friends Nick has always looked out for Jayne and took care of her. Living with a grandmother that never showed her affection, Nick was the one who did. He would hug her until she would push him away. For Nick nothing has changed between him and Jayne, she is still his best friend that he wants to spend all his time with and help as much as he can. Jayne keeps pushing away feelings she’s had for Nick for a very long time and doing her best to give him space, so she won’t come between him and any of his relationships. The more time they spend together the more things start to change between Nick and Jayne. Nick starts to see and feel things for Jayne that he was too blind to see before and Jayne still thinks Nick see her only as the plain Jayne she thinks she is.Plain Jayne was definitely lite on the angst and steam but made up for it with sweet Nick and funny supporting characters. One of my favorite’s parts of the book was at the beginning of every chapter started with a quote from a character in a John Hughes movie. There was Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Home Alone 2 and Some Kind of Wonderful. All classics in my opinion!"You look good wearing my future."--Keith Nelson, Some Kind of WonderfulI think everyone who loves sweet love story’s that are built on friendship, will really enjoy Plain Jayne.
