Mike is my best friend.My tall, gorgeous, and bearded best friend.We both share a love for music, Monty Python, dirty jokes and my grandmother’s homemade cookies.I also have a giant crush on Mike.And he has no idea.I tried to tell him at a New Year’s Eve party last year, but I lost my nerve, and he ended up with someone else.Armed with a broken heart and a massive hangover, I wrote a list of New … heart and a massive hangover, I wrote a list of New Year’s resolutions intent on turning myself into New and Improved Jane who doesn’t let life pass her by.
With resolutions to check off the list and limited time to finish, I accepted Mike’s offer to help.
But spending all this time with Mike is bringing up feelings that I’d spent a better part of a year keeping under control. Mike has a girlfriend and I can’t risk losing my best friend, but sometimes the way he looks at me makes me think, maybe, he feels them too?
I’m probably just daydreaming, as usual…
This novella has NO cheating and is a standalone, friends-to-lovers romantic comedy full of alphas, steam, sarcasm and Monty Python references

The storyline was nicely written and the characters were so wonderfully created that I was totally hooked until the turn of the very last page!
Being in love with your best friend and not daring to say can make you miss a lot. It takes 3 years before Jane and Mike finally dare to admit that they love each other. A wonderful, extremely sweet romance for a wonderful evening on the couch
4,5 stars
A sweet and swoon-worthy best friends to lovers romance. It is well written, romantic, passionate, relatable, engaging, and enjoyable. The characters are loveable; their chemistry is amazing and off the charts. Definitely recommended.

A pint of beer spilled on someone’s lap will get you a nice conversation as you wait for a refill at a bar. Sometimes. In this case it worked out very well. Mike who sitting at the bar got a pint of beer spilled on his lap as he was trying to get his drink. One thing leads to another and a friendship has begun in stock for about three years. Is the very cool book about how if you don’t: be brave, be bold, say you love me, you got to miss out on the opportunities You were destined to have. Nice time events. And it does show that it was 60% out of 100 males and females can be friends before they become lovers … maybe.

Jane and Mike are best friends. And she’s in love with him, but too chicken to tell him. Last year, she made a list of New Year’s resolutions, and he sets out to help her meet her goals. I love this book. It’s obvious from the first page that these two belong together – the chemistry and banter between them proves that point. Their nicknames (Stella and Captain) are so cute, and don’t mean a thing to anyone else. His family and her grandmother are just such nice people, and his mother proves to be a goodfriend and role model for Jane. This is my first book from this author, and I’m looking forward to more.

It was a bit rocky and painful as Mike had Chellie. What was even worse, he hooked up with her on the same New Years Eve party that Jane had decided to confess her love for him. Ugh. Painful to read, and hurtful to imagine Jane having to see them together.
I didn’t have the best impression of Mike as he pretty much used Chellie to get over his feelings for Jane, but the fact was he never even tried to get closer to Jane.
Once I forced myself to get over that part of their history, the rest was sweet and enjoyable. Way too neat and tidy with the way Jane gets over her hurt and insecurities though.

This is a sweet friends to lovers romance with strong characters in Jane and Mike. The author does a great job building their relationship and moving them into a stronger love. She brings the story to life with her detailed scenes and makes it a realistic,life like story. It moves quickly and smoothly and I loved reading.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own and freely given.
This book was an enjoyable read. The characters were well developed and you can feel their emotions of joy, friendship, love, doubts and shyness. The chemistry between the main characters Mike and Jane was great, the laughter, knowing each other thoughts, they enjoyed doing the same things. Their comedy banter between them had me laughing out loud at times.
I felt bad for Jane because she would always put herself down because she didn’t feel her looks were beautiful compared to other women that Mike had dated.
I enjoyed reading this book, which grabbed my attention from the beginning to the end and left me wanting more. I recommend it to read and look forward to reading more by this author.

This was a quick and enjoyable read about friends becoming more, which is a scary idea because good friends do not want to lose what they already have. Unfortunately, you must ask if it is worth the risk. Mike and Jane took 3 years of dancing around each other to realize what everyone else already knew. I enjoyed their story and would recommend it to adults.
There is language and adult scenes. Overall, this is a cute and cozy read with no cheating and an ending that leaves you with a smile. There was a part that I really just did not understand, but it was a big deal to Jane. I just had a hard time connecting with her through that one issue. Otherwise, the story was great.

This was such a super sweet and cute novella that I loved so much. Mike and Jane have been friends for years now, they have seen each other date other people and neither one of them know that they both harbor feelings for each other. Then one day it all changes and Mike decides to help Jane finish her resolutions list and this brings the friends even closer as they more time they spend together. Feelings are let know, insecurities rise, and now they must decide if this is it or can they be more. I adored this read and loved them both, also it was super steamy which was awesome.
This may be a shorter story, but it is packed full of all of the feels! I haven’t got one bad thing to say about this story. I loved it from the first page, and I eagerly devoured every yummy morsel of it. Mike and Jane are quite possibly the epitome of everything that you would want your relationship to be. Best friends, lovers, Monty Python fans. They both love Grandma’s cookies, trivia, and music. They are so amazing together! Can I just say that every woman should have a Mike in her life. He was just…..perfection! So swoon-worthy. Trust me when I say that you will love this story. It left me feeling so happy! Thanks for another amazing story, Lucy Eden!
