Emotional Whiplash... in the best way!

Sam and Gio have been the best of friends since the first time they laid eyes on each other... in grade school. They spent all their time together, did everything together, the only thing that was off limits was the physical. They'd never kissed, but the feelings that had always been there are about to explode.

When she gets the worst news a woman could receive, she decides to take a leap and ask Gio to cross that line between friends and lovers. Asking her best friend who has held her above all others in their heart could be a very big mistake, but Gio is all in. Will anything be the same?

Sam's fierce independence and stubborn streak took some time for me to get into. There are so many factors for her feelings. She broke me completely when she finally understands what really matters in life.

Gio is not a pushover. He just loves so much that he sacrifices his heart and time for the ones he cares for most. I know he's not going to leave my heart anytime soon.

10 stars!
