She's always been my strong side. The one I protect, the one I lean on, the one I can't stop playing for.
Because I've never wanted anything more than to earn her as mine -- for real.

Noelle James is my best friend, has been for years. And we've never crossed that line, even though I've thought about it more times than I should.
But when her ex becomes a problem she can't shake, I step in as her fake boyfriend. No big deal, right?
Only it is a big deal. Because being hers, even just pretending, feels way too real and like everything I've ever wanted.
Then she drops a bomb: she wants help building confidence in the bedroom. She wants to practice... with me.
Suddenly, we're tangled in sheets, secrets, and something that feels a lot like love.

best friends to lovers

friends with benefits
