Shared desires: A Small Town Brother's Best Friend Romance

by Vera Beryl

A small town, brother's best friend, forced proximity suspense romance in a tiny mountain town called Rainbell Falls.

Being the youngest of six siblings had many advantages, such as never being bored, always having someone to talk to, and being the spoiled one of the house, especially when you were the only girl. However, it also had its disadvantages, such as not being able to enjoy any time alone, no classmate daring to ask you out on a date, or having the misfortune of falling in love with your older brother's best friend.

That had been my curse, one that had accompanied me for half my life. At almost thirty years old I was still crazy about him while assuring my friends that Ash was like a brother to me. I’d repeated it so many times that I could’ve believed it, but my heart was not so easy to manipulate. Something inside me pushed me not to give up, and I was beginning to feel tired of being the good girl in the family.

Perfect for readers who enjoy cozy romances, charming characters, and an addictive narrative. Join Rainbell Falls and fall in love with a sunshine-y, kind woman who has always been secretly in love with her older brother's friend and a grumpy man who has never allowed himself to think about a future with her.

This book is a standalone, although it is part of the Rainbell Falls series.
