Review: Friends Who Fall for Each Other

I really enjoyed this book by Lanie Kincaid, but I have to say the description listed here and the cover art do not match the story at all. The storyline of heroine Rae Madison being "the other woman" is over in a heartbeat and not central at all to the story. What this story is about is something many daters can relate to: that of friends falling for each other. I liked the way Colby and Rae tried to understand their feelings and dealt with their fear of making a fool of themselves.Despite this, I thought there were many parts of this book that needed some editing. The "other woman" storyline in the beginning, for example. It's mentioned and then not really dealt with again. Rae's interaction with Colby's mother is another example. The woman is very influential in this story but there doesn't seem to be a connection between her and Rae. I also felt the ending was rushed, and the quick turnabout in Rae's career felt inauthentic. Kincaid is no doubt a talented author and I look forward to reading more of her work.
