Between Friends was a fun, flirty, and sweet read that left me with a full heart. This book was the perfect balance of sweet and romantic with just a touch of sexiness. I really enjoyed reading Between Friends, and I can already tell, even though I just finished it, that this is definitely a book that I will be reading again.Megan Daniels was just too cute. I loved her right from the start. Megan hasn’t been all that lucky in the love department. She has had her share of bad relationships, but she isn’t the type to just go out and have fling, like some of her friend’s suggest. When she is propositioned by her best friend, Ben Romano, to have sex depending on a coin toss, she accepts his challenge, even though, her acceptance probably has a lot more to do with the alcohol in her system and her lowered inhibitions. The next morning, Megan isn’t quite sure what to think as she wakes up to the tall, dark and handsome man in her bed. They crossed the friendship line.Ben Romano stole my heart almost immediately. Like I said, he is tall, dark, and handsome, not to mention a very successful and confident businessman. What’s not to like? He also can’t seem to get enough of his best friend, who by her own accord isn’t his usual model wannabe type. The fact that he seems to be falling over himself to try to win Megan just melts my heart.Between Friends also had a great group of secondary characters too. Jessica, Michelle, and Stephanie are all Megan’s closest friends. Michael, Eric and Matthew round out the group of friends as well. I never felt like they were just fillers in the story, and they truly made the book more well rounded.I really loved this book. I loved the tension that built between Ben and Megan, and I loved the sweet and romantic factor that it had as well. In a world where there are a lot of romance books that are all angst and sex, this was a really nice change of pace. Sweet, fun, and romantic!
