When I picked this book up, it reminded me of one of my favorite movies, "When Harry Met Sally," where we all wonder if men and women can truly be friends. The subject highly interests me, because I did marry a guy who I, for years, considered to be a friend, so I was eager to read this book.I found Megan and Ben's story in "Between Friends" to be a cute, likable one. Would I ever participated in the coin toss, probably not, but that's what I liked about their friendship -- they were willing take a chance (even after having a few drinks), even Megan who tended to over think and worry.During the weekend of friendly wedding festivities, I thought their alone time was special, and it seemed like they really cared for each other, especially when nobody was looking. I liked how Ben seemed to take charge, even though he had a temper at times, and punched a guy, it was understandable to see where he was coming from. However, I thought Megan's girlfriends were very immature, and weren't supportive, especially when a secret is found out a secret about one of the them girls and Ben...(no, I'm not going to spoil it for you).Overall, "Between Friends" was a fun, and enjoyable, weekend read. While, at times, somewhat predictable, I loved the happy ending!I give this book 4 stars!
