Best Together
Cameron Baltazar has always had fun prodding her ridiculously stiff and perpetually unamused roommate and best friend, Jameson Aberian. She’s had over a decade to perfect her pranks, and is completely blindsided when it’s revealed that Jameson intends to move out. Hurt and confused, everything boils over at a party to celebrate Jameson opening his own private practice. Cameron will soon learn if a square peg and round hole can fit perfectly together.

About the author
Janet Eckford
35 books35 followersLike most great superheroes (or super-villains, depending on who’s telling the story) I live a double life. By day I'm a mild-mannered crusader for justice (or nefarious deeds, depending on who’s telling the story) and by night an indestructible creator of prose (or pathological liar, depending on who’s telling the story) while munching on my favorite cookies—oatmeal raisin. A native West Coaster who hails from the sunny state of California I have loved the romance genre ever since I convinced my dad it was required reading when I was eleven. I believe love shouldn’t have a color code and strive to create stories that represent that belief.

Best Together, by Janet Eckford, is the third installment in her Destined for Love series. As are her other stories in this series, this is a short work with only about 45 pages of text. The Destined for Love series centers on long term friends who realize they are in love. In this story crazy obstetrics nurse practitioner Cameron and her best friend OB/GYN doctor Jameson discover and acknowledge their love.
I loved this story! From the first page the author gave you a feel for the carefree, take-life-by-the-horns attitude of Cameron and her friend (Jameson’s cousin) Sarai, as compared to Jameson’s more laid back stoic take on life. In a short period of time the reader gets a feel for the strong familial and cultural ties both main characters have with their immediate and extended families.
Even though the story is short, you learn why Jameson is the way he is and how while he is an organized, strait laced person, he also has a fire inside of him that erupts for Cameron. The best parts of the story are when they are around Jameson’s family and they were describing their Lebanese culture and foods; and love of hookah and drink.
My favorite line of the story is “Later, after Cameron had given birth to their first child, she would remind Jameson of the promise he’d made that night not to name their children after his favorite alcoholic beverages, like his father had done.”
I cannot wait for the next installment in this series.

This is my first time reading something by this author, and since it is a novella I will keep my review short.
I liked the storyline of a heroine(Cameron) realizing that she may have deeper feelings for her roommate and best friend (Jameson) after finding out that he is planning to move out.
I think I would have felt the chemistry more between the hero and the heroine if I would have had a little more day-to-day interaction between the two, but I know that is hard to do when it was intended to be a short story. The one main problem I had about this book was Cameron's pranks on Jameson. They came across as a little too childish instead of it being a funny reference to him being an OB/GYN.
I do not feel that this novella gave me enough understanding of the writing style of this author, so therefore I would look forward to reading a full novel by this author.
