Friendship Fling

A slow-burn, strangers-to-friends-to-lovers rom-com with a vibrant London setting, sizzling chemistry, and two polar-opposite strangers who just can''t quite seem to let each other go . . . No one would ever call Ava Monroe a people person, which isn''t ideal for a barista in a busy London coffee shop. She''s sarcastic, blunt and cynical, and likes her men with strictly no strings attached. And despite desperate pleas from her best friend Josie to shake up her routine and make some new friends, she refuses to change her carefully controlled life. That is, until the insufferably cheerful, country-hopping, undeniably gorgeous Finn O''Callaghan rolls into her coffee shop with a horrifyingly perfect proposal - a strictly friends-only fling. Finn''s only in the city for the summer and needs a local to help him complete his London bucket list before he moves along for good, and Ava needs to reassure Josie she''s got the makings of a social butterfly after all.
