I received a complimentary copy of Just a Friend by C.W. Bruce in exchange for a review. First of all, this probably should be classified as a Romance, more than Erotic Fiction, which is a credit to the story.  Really, there is only one protracted sex scene, and it is towards the end of the book--really unnecessary if you ask me, but I'm that old-fashioned person.  The characters were extremely well-drawn and realistic.  The love triangle that was central to the plot developed in a very organic and inoffensive way.  My biggest issue is that this was a book that was familiar.  The story is cliché and predictable. The descriptive passages seemed a bit repetitive.  Over all, this book could have benefited from some additional editing, and in the case of this eBook issue, proofreading.  When you're talking about somebody's gorgeous body, it is not a "physic", and why that word appears so many times is baffling.  On the bright side, the story moved quickly and it was likeable and warm.  Sometimes the stories you've heard before are the most comfortable.
