Austin and Dex were fantastic. I sometimes have a hard time with best friends to lovers, but not with these two. Even with their doubts, they always communicated. They were ridiculously perfect for each other! I loved that their friends saw it and pointed it out to them. Milo and Kael were the perfect amount of involved. They didn't push, but they did give voice to what they saw. I think Austin and Dex needed that little insight to move forward. I was grateful that Dex's mom was able to start healing herself. She desperately needed that! She was a good person, but she was putting Dex in a bad spot. I loved these two so much!!

Our favorite barista is in need of lessons on how not to be tongue tied when a hot guy is near.

Austin has been best friends with Dex since forever. Dex is full of charisma, life, and an easy confidence which makes him appear free. Austin is the opposite, he’s introverted, romantic and quiet. Austin is looking for his happily ever after and wants to fall in love. Dex doesn’t believe love exists, but he believes Austin deserves everything he wants and more.

Dex has always been the one to get Austin outside of his comfort zone. Their friendship is balanced between chaos and controlled chaos. Austin gives Dex direction and Dex gives Austin life.

Dex’s mission is for Austin to see how amazing he is and for other guys to see the same. The problem is Dex is like gravity and he pulls everyone to him and sometimes it overshadows Austin. To everyone but Dex.

This is one of the sweetest slow burn childhood friends to lovers romance. I love how their friendship changed and grew to be more.

I actually enjoyed this one! Friends to lovers is easier to believe since the chemistry is already built in. The romance was also very sweet and it wasn’t infatuation at first sight. There’s also no angst only normal life things that we have to deal with as they come. They also get a HEA! As a bonus it had trans rep!

This is absolutely a must read. I couldn’t put this book down and devoured it in about 5 hours. The chemistry in this best friends to lovers book was top notch. I loved the slow build as they both realized their attraction to each other. It was nice that one MC wasn’t pining over the other the whole time, although I love those books too.

This is a really sweet friends to lovers, fake dating romance. Dex and Austin have what feels to me like an unusual bffs to lovers story—instead of one secretly pining for his straight bff, these two are both gay, but have just never thought of each other that way before. It’s not until they start fake dating that they start to see each other in a different way and new feelings start to develop. It makes it fun because they are both grappling with new feelings. I like that they’re open and honest with each other and that they’re protective of their friendship. It was good to see Austin gain confidence in himself and for Dex to learn that being in a relationship could be a good thing for him.

I really enjoyed the side characters too. Their roommates Milo and Kael were great allies.

This is such a cute story. I love best friends to lovers. There's so much history and familiarity to build on and I feel like it just blossoms naturally and at a good pace. These two are so dopey with each other and it's adorable.

This is the 6th book in the new FU2 series. Austin, who we’ve met already as the redhead barista in previous books, is an introvert that loves romance novels. (Same ????????‍♀️). His best friend Dex decides to “help him” by practicing dating with him. What could go wrong? They end up going on a few dates and soon it gets real. They finally figure out they’re perfect for each other. This was a very cute friends to lovers!

Not a bad book, it just seemed like the author was trying too hard to throw some gen z/millennial terms in.
