Finding My Forever Series by Michele Notaro

Oh God, here he comes now. Okay, he actually greeted me. Now I need to say something… anything. Run down my internal checklist—Step One: wipe drool from mouth; I wiped my mouth; check. Step Two: open mouth and speak; say something… come on, anything… nope, I got nothing. Step Three: refer to Step One and repeat. Sigh. This gorgeous man now thinks I’m a moron. Of course, I know that my secret—okay, not so secret—crush, Reese Willoughby, could never have any interest in me anyway... moreOh God, here he comes now. Okay, he actually greeted me.

It’s like something keeps pulling me in his direction and no matter how hard I try, I can’t stop myself from seeking him out. Ugh. And the fact that he’s not a complete jerk isn’t helping matters at all. Declan~ Everyone around me is moving on with their lives and I’m just stuck: motionless, left utterly alone. After everything I’ve done, I don’t have many friends left, not that I can blame them. So when Trent decides to give me the chance to be a friend, I know I can’t screw it up. No matter how attractive and awesome and funny he is, I have to keep him strictly in the friend zone. Not that I’d want more, anyway, since I never do relationships. But it sure would make my life so much easier if he wasn’t so captivating all the time. Trent and Declan form an unlikely friendship that they’re both desperate to keep. Afraid of damaging their newfound companionship, each is hesitant to make a move, even if they both feel the pull of attraction growing between them. Will they be able to take a chance and let their friendship grow into something more? ***A True Fit is the fourth book in the Finding My Forever series, but is a standalone novel. Each book will feature a different couple, but the couples will show up throughout the series.
