4.9 Stars
A steamy
enemies-to-friends-to-lovers romance from New York Times Bestselling Author
Samantha Young.
It’s hard to stay in
the friend zone when the attraction is this hot...
Going into my senior
year of university at war with a member of the British royal family wasn’t in
my carefully laid plans. Sebastian Thorne might be the grandson of a princess,
but it’ll take more than a royal pardon to get me to forgive him for pretending
to be someone he’s not.
But Sebastian is
determined to be my friend. Even if it means signing up to a psych experiment
just to get me to talk to him. Who knew a sincere apology and him saying my
name in that posh English accent would make me weak in the knees?
This year was supposed
to be about my dissertation and graduate school. Only, Sebastian has thrown my
ordered world off kilter. He makes me bolder, more confident. A braver version
of me.
Yet every lingering
glance and stolen touch has me realizing one thing…
I’m falling for my best
friend.
There’s just one
problem. Sebastian has demons, ones that make him determined to keep me in the
friend zone no matter the cost.
And even when temptation sends his walls tumbling
down, the beauty we’ve found might not survive against the will of powerful
outside forces…
The second book in the Dublin Street Second Generation series!
Lily is Nate and Olivia's daughter.
She in College to become a psychotherapist and she runs a very successfull dating advice pod cast at the University.
Sebastian is a lesser known Royal - grandson of the Queen's sister.
A friend of his started a rival pod cast and suddenly Lily and Sebastian are enemies.
Sebastian does not do girlfriends. But he can't forget Lily. So he tries for friendship and soon they're besties.
Lily could very easily fall for this beautiful guy but he only wants to be friends. So friends it is.
They spend so much time together that it gets harder and harder to keep this friendly. For both. Why can't/won't Sebastian be with her?
READ THE BOOK TO FIND OUT
That was so adorable.Lily and Sebastian are so perfect together. Only they're not together together. But hopefully we'll get there by the end of this book. LOL.
Is it his royal background? Is he afraid his family won't accept Lily? Or did something happen to him in the past that prevents him from wanting something serious?
We'll fight for that happy end because he's so worth it! For Lily I mean.
Sebastian is so adorable and sweet and flirty and fun. And Lily is so completely his opposite ... shy and body conscious. She's also so very strong and smart but she thinks he can't be attracted to her and that's why he only wants to be friends.
She's so wrong.
I enjoyed reading this so much.
Great cast of people - loved all the friends and family!
And we obviously all need a Sebastian in our lives!
Can't wait for Bairds story next! Ooh and January too, right?! Gimme!
