About this ebook
A slow burn, hilarious and heartwarming romantic comedy from the New York Times bestselling author of Yours Truly.
"A romance for the ages" āTessa Bailey, bestselling author of It Happened One Summer
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 Kristenāespecially 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.
"Your next favorite romantic comedy ...The Friend Zone is that rare beach read with tons of heart that will make you laugh and cry in equal parts." āPopSugar
"Your next rom-com to obsess and cry over." āCosmopolitan

This book is so drawn out. The miscommunication trope and "we can't be together " was just too much. It should have and could have been done in 100 pages. extremely boring and redundant, in my opinion

the female protagonist is unlikeable, rude and disgusting. everyone else is annoying at best. it sucks, and i regret buying it. do not read it, i got aids from reading this book.

This book is an emotional rollercoaster, baby, and I rode it all night long! I seriously went from laughing out loud to ugly crying and back to laughing and gasping and ugly crying over the course of just a few chapters. Kristen is no nonsense, sarcastic, and just FUN, and Josh is every fireman calendar in one hot dream. Abby weaves fun, humor, and heartbreak together seamlessly so you easily feel like you're living every character's storyline. One warning: expect to have to read this all the way through in one sitting. It's so hard to put it down!
