BLURB
Ellie
Being a single mom is the most challenging, yet rewarding job I’ve ever had. Especially in a small town, where everyone knows your story, or at least their version of it.
They say it takes a village, and they’re right. I’ve been lucky to have close friends to help me raise my son, Brody. One particular friend stands out above the rest. TD stepped up in a big way, teaching my son everything a father should. That’s why his friendship means so much to me.
Brody and I both rely on his friendship. Any feelings I have for my sexy friend must stay buried. It’s safer that way.
Turns out, it’s much harder to do when he decides he’s done being just my friend. He wants more.
TD
There’s nothing worse than being in lust with one of your friends. For years, I’ve been fighting my attraction to Ellie and keeping it a secret. I thought I was doing what was best for all of us.
Between working as the local police officer and coaching high school football, I’m left with very little downtime, but what I do have is spent with Ellie and her son. When I find out the seventeen-year-old boy might be working to get this football coach and his mom together, all bets are off.
With Brody on my side, I’m willing to
I have to make her see we can have it all. Despite her reservations, I’ll show her love is worth the risk.

REVIEW
I am loving small town romances. This one was such a feel good romance read, I absolutely enjoyed every minute of it.
Ellie was so amazing. After being kicked out by her parents when she was a teenager, she got a small apartment and got a job and from then on it was just her and her son.
Now Ellie is the manager at the dinner she got a job at and her son is a senior. She couldn’t have gotten to so far without her friends. Especially her friend TD, who her son sees as a father figure. A friend she has had a crush on for a long time, but never did anything about it as she didn’t want to lose his friendship.
TD is a local police officer and he is the coach of Brody’s football team. He has always been there for Ellie and Brody. And even though he has feelings for her, he didn’t want to ruin their friendship. But then they had one kiss and now its all he can think about…
Sweet, amazing, great chemistry and little bit of angst. All the characters in this story was amazing. I loved how Ellie’s son wanted his mom to be happy 😊 so freaking cute. Definitely a great addition to small town romance 😊
