While I’m a huge fan of the best friends to lovers trope, I’m always really nervous about how the author will handle the scene when the two finally realise they have feelings for each other. This story was so heartwarming and so different from ones that I’ve read recently, that I soaked it up hungrily. This book is about friendships, love and finding yourself even through the darkest and hardest times. And it’s no different with Girlfriend Material.

With Katia Rose, I know I’m always going to get a romance that makes me feel all of the things and makes me wish I was part of that world and could hang out with these characters. It’s a good thing Kate and Allison are just taking part in some purely platonic flirting lessons and are absolutely, totally, definitely not falling in love. So it’s a good thing Kate Davidson isn’t in love with her best friend either. Maybe she’s just afraid of them-too afraid to reach out and grab one when it’s staring her in the face.

Like maybe she doesn’t hate relationships. It doesn’t take much to get Kate on board teaching her best friend the art of seduction seems like the perfect distraction from some of the inconvenient truths Kate would rather not face.

Until the day it hits her: she’s got a master flirting coach right at her fingertips. Kate marches through life in combat boots and crop tops, breaking hearts as fast as she steals them and insisting anything more than an emotionless hook-up is a waste of time.Īllison knits her own sweaters, wears socks with tiny strawberries on them, and has spent two years of college utterly failing at her goal of getting a girlfriend before graduation.

They may both be star students in their costume design program, but when it comes to relationships, Allison and Kate are as different as their fashion senses. It’s a good thing Allison Farley isn’t in love with her best friend.
