Asking For a Friend shows you what happens when a friend (with the best intentions, mind you) tries to find that special someone for her broken-hearted best friend, only to hit the Jackpot and find the man of her own dreams.

I will admit, I wasn’t the biggest fan of this book. I just couldn’t get into it and the characters were far too prestigious for my taste. There were moments where I did find the book funny (especially the banter); however, I constantly felt like the third party hanging out with a group of friends that had known each other forever. I also felt like the character development was lacking (which contributed to the disconnect). During their “get to know you” times – we did learn about them and their hobbies but most of it felt surface-level and superficial. I absolutely love Lauren Blakely but this is one I probably wouldn’t recommend.
