She knows better than to think she'll get a happily-ever-after like the romance stories she loves...until her nerdy work friend starts to act like Prince Charming.

Romance-reading executive assistant Marlee can't show up to her boss's wedding without a date. Not after her crush invites a beautiful, brainy Amazon. So when her best buddy, Tyler, offers to be her plus-one, she's all in for a little jealousy-sparking fun.

Until a magical kiss on the dance floor makes her forget her own name and question who she's crushing on. Suddenly their date doesn't feel so fake.

Leveling-up their friendship is a risk she's not ready to take. So is Tyler asking for more than she can give. She never meant to break up with her best friend. Especially when she suspects she's falling for him.

Friend Me is a slow-burn-to-red-hot, friends-to-lovers, fake-relationship romantic comedy featuring a starry-eyed heroine, a sweet, cinnamon-roll hero, and a pair of cranky cats. It can be read as a standalone and is the second book in the Synergy series.
