Description

A slow burn, hilarious and heartwarming romantic comedy that Tessa Bailey calls "a romance for the ages!" from the New York Times bestselling author of Yours Truly

Kristen Peterson doesn't do drama, will fight to the death for her friends, and has no room in her life for guys who just don't get her. She's also keeping a big secret: facing a medically necessary procedure that will make it impossible for her to have children.

Planning her best friend's wedding is bittersweet for Kristen -- especially when she meets the best man, Josh Copeland. He's funny, sexy, never offended by her mile-wide streak of sarcasm, and always one chicken enchilada ahead of her hangry. Even her dog, Stuntman Mike, adores him. The only catch: Josh wants a big family someday. Kristen knows he'd be better off with someone else, but as their attraction grows, it's harder and harder to keep him at arm's length.

The Friend Zone will have you laughing one moment and grabbing for tissues the next as it tackles the realities of infertility and loss with wit, heart, and a lot of sass.

    Not a feel good read, the characters miscommunicate to the point that I was yelling at them and didn’t want them together anymore, boo. DNF
  • Overall good read

    I really enjoyed this book, the highs and the lows. The only thing I would’ve changed is how dragged on one of the main issues is.
  • Entertaining

    A very entertaining read with a happy ending. I didn’t care much for some of the explicit sex scenes, but still a good book. Glad I read it🤓

    The book was so cute but broke my heart at the same time. I will admit that it was frustrating at times how difficult one character made things but I understand why. Overall, I enjoyed the book.
  • Fun and flirty
