Beautifully Broken Spirit by Catherine Cowles
4.0

I'm a sucker for the brother's best friend trope! This book is Jensen and Tuck's story. Tuck is Jensen's older brother Walker's best friend and they all grew up together. Jensen and Tuck shared a particularly special bond and a connection with each other since childhood that no one else could match. Jensen is such a strong woman and has endured so much, and Tuck has been with her every step of the way, even if it was just as best friends. They went from being friends to friends with benefits and then fell in love for real and got their happily ever after. I will admit, I didn't like the transition between just being friends with benefits and then all of the sudden being in love. It was choppy and not done very well, but this is my only real complaint. Overall, it was great and I'm so happy they got their fairytale ending. 

“Every time I touched you three times. Every time I squeezed your hand three times. Every time I kissed each temple and your forehead. That’s what I was telling you. One touch for each word I couldn’t say.”
