This is a story for every woman who has a best friend...
Bailey Watters and Koralynn Mitchell consider themselves "sisters of the soul." Their circumstances growing up couldn't have been more different; Kora came from a wealthy, privileged family, while Bailey's home life was hard. They'd do anything for each other. "I'd give you a kidney," they always say. There are no secrets between them--until there's one secret Bailey can't share.
This is a story for every woman who's been in love.
Danny Brown is the only man Kora's ever wanted, ever loved, and her marriage seems as flawless as everything else in her life. Bailey, however, doesn't want a husband. She does want a baby--but only by IVF. And the perfect donor, the perfect biological father, would be a man like...Danny.
What happens when love and friendship collide?
Kora might be willing to give Bailey a kidney. But what about a baby?

They’re a team...not a couple!
Falling for Liam was unthinkable. He and Gabi had been best friends since college, nothing more. And crucially, now Liam was her client and needed her to be focused on his case. Gabi could never risk their friendship — or Liam’s freedom — over these feelings. They could never be a couple, anyway. He was Liam Connelly, the handsome and privileged son of a billionaire. She was Gabrielle Miller, the girl who’d fought her way out of poverty and put herself through law school. They were unlikely friends to begin with. Anything more was impossible. Unless...he felt it, too.
Liam, Gabi and Marie are a family of sorts. They met nine years ago when Liam was getting chewed out by his father for choosing to live in a dorm room rather than an upscale apartment (where his father could essentially spy on him). The three of them have now formed an LLC and are planning to buy a historic apartment building together. Liam's father advised him not to and when he does, Liam's life drastically changes.
Liam's father soon has some major legal issues to deal with and Liam turns to Gabi, who is now an attorney, to represent him and keep him out of the mess. As he and Gabi work together to figure out what's really going on, Liam learns his father's secrets and he doesn't know who he can trust.
I enjoyed the three main characters. Gabi and Liam fought their attraction for each other because they didn't want to ruin their friendship in the long run. Liam had a reputation for not dating any one woman for any length of time. Gabi is tough but made some mistakes along the way since she was emotionally involved. Liam took life in stride. For a guy who had lived the life of luxury, he handled losing privileges very well. I'm not sure how realistic that would be, but it definitely made him easy to like. Marie was in the background more but her presence reminded Gabi and Liam about what they had and what they didn't want to mess up.
I love a good romance, especially when there's a secondary storyline and this book delivered! I wasn't expecting the mystery so that was a pleasant surprise. I had a pretty good idea of who was behind the scheme early on but there were still some twists and turns along the way that I didn't see coming. The beginning was a little bit slow but it wasn't long before it picked up and I couldn't turn the pages fast enough to see what would happen to each character in the end. I hope there will be more because I would love to read Marie's story!
