Just Friends by Saxon James
5.0

What a wonderful start to a new series. This is a beautiful friends to lovers, bi awakening romance with feels. It’s very well crafted with perfect pacing that made it flow along seamlessly and the character development was on point.
Roo and Tanner are so easy to love. Roo with his snark and sarcasm and Tanner with his all round sweetness and positive attitude. Inseparable until Roo moves for medical reasons but then returns 5 years later. They always had amazing chemistry but Tanner is really oblivious and confused to what that actually means to him. It takes some time for it all to click into place but once it does Tanner is very much on board. Think affectionate tender moments combined with steamy times.
I was so enthralled with their journey from best friends to lovers that I read this in one sitting and couldn’t put it down. If you’re after a lowish level angst, medium heat, beautifully written friends to lovers romance then I highly recommend this book. There is also a sneaky little peek as to which of the very interesting side characters may feature in the next instalment....can’t wait for more!
