Synopsis

Romance is weakness, and Jasmine Allen doesn’t have time for either. Lifelong cynic Jas is the queen of one-night things—until a plumbing disaster screws everything up and leaves her temporarily homeless. Luckily, she has someone to turn to: her best friend Rahul. For seven years, Rahul Khan has followed three simple rules. -Don’t touch Jasmine if you can help it. -Don’t look at her arse in that skirt. -And don’t ever—ever—tell her you love her. He should’ve added another rule: Do not, under any circumstances, let Jas move into your house. Now Rahul is living with the friend he can’t have, and it’s decimating his control. He knows their shared dinners aren’t dates, their late-night kisses are a mistake, and the tenderness in Jasmine’s gaze is only temporary. One wrong word could send his skittish best friend running. So why is he tempted to risk it all?

Goodreads review by emma on September 30, 2022

turns out there are reading slumps (and depressive episodes) even talia hibbert can't solve. this is news to me! this was not a bad book, but it felt so different from the brown sisters books as to be by a different author. i love that series and would die at its hand and this didn't have the same cha......more

This is one of the best friends-to-lovers romance books I’ve ever read. I loved this so much!! I think this might be my favourite Talia Hibbert book… Take a Hint, Dani Brown is objectively a better book though. If you love Dani’s book, I am 99% certain that you will love this one, too. Reading this bo......more

Goodreads review by Jessica on August 06, 2021

This was a really cute friends to lovers romance, but it wasn't really anything special? I'm not sure how to feel about it. Rahul was so precious and just wanted to be there for Jasmine, so the final conflict that drove them apart was a bit frustrating. I did love that Rahul was the one who had alwa......more


Quotes

"Rooke Kingston and Keval Shah narrate this emotional roommates-to-lovers romance. Rooke Kingston expressively portrays Jasmine’s inner conflict and vulnerabilities, which make her relatable. Keval Shah's narrative tone is pleasing; however, when delivering the female heroine’s dialogue, his tone struggles to match her personality. Listeners will long for these old friends to overcome their pasts and become happy permanent roommates together." - Audiofile Magazine
