Allison Brown has a plan: Find The One. Fall in love. Live happily ever after.
Simple, right?
Except her dating life looks more like a comedy sketch than a romance novel. From a guy who brings his mom on their first date (yes, really) to a "perfect" ex who turns out to be engaged, Allison's mission for true love is... not exactly going according to plan.
Thankfully, she's got her best friend, Jamie Lee - her constant, her rescuer, her emergency ice-cream delivery guy. He's been by her side through every heartbreak, every checklist, every disastrous date.
What Allison doesn't know?
Jamie's been in love with her the whole time.
But when he finally starts pulling away - and someone else catches his attention - Allison realizes she might have been looking for love in all the wrong places.
Because maybe, just maybe, The One has been right beside her all along.
A laugh-out-loud, heart-melting friends-to-lovers rom-com for everyone who's ever chased love - and almost missed it when it was staring them in the face.

So, funny story- I wrote this because my sister challenged me to write a story from 4 words she'll give me. The words are: socks, bathroom, flood and airplane. So yeah let's see how i do:) Love should be easy. At least that's what Alice's mother always said. But she obviously never had to face the choices Alice does. How can one choose between two perfect men? Ron is her dream come true, everything she waited for. Caring, beautiful, funny and sweet as a chocolate covered strawberry. She couldn't stop thinking about him from the moment they met in his brother's diner restroom. On the other hand, Theo, he's just so- well how can she think about him as anything other than her best friend? And as if the choice wasn't hard enough, to top it all of the both of them are cousins. So yeah in Alice's eyes, love is anything BUT easy. Can't say I blame her. *** An unplanned trip uncovers secrets so deep, even the one's hiding them are unaware of their existence. What will our lovers do? Will they hurt the ones they hold dear for love? Will they ignore their true feelings? And most importantly, will they let pride get in the way? Trigger warnings! -alcohol use -many taylor swift references -violence -SA/ mention of SA -slow burn
The Buddies Rule | ✓
[Complete - Wattpad Featured Story April 2018 ] "You have a contract?" Chase ripped the papers out of Lewis' hands. "And you signed it?" "It's a good idea, Chase." I shrugged, resting my hands in my lap. "I just want things to go back to normal." "And you chalk the fighting up to sexual tension between the two of us? That makes a whole lot of sense," he scoffed. "No, I just think this protects us from having that kind of conversation. What if Lewis found out he had feelings for me-" "Or for Chase." Lewis added in with a seductive smile. "It always starts with a hand on the shoulder." - Bree Hendly's life had never been truly complicated. She had her father, she had her best friend Chase, and she had her writing to keep her sane. But that didn't mean that everything would always be so simple. The second Lewis Doolan and Alan Green inserted themselves into her life, she knew that things would change. Her best friend and secret crush begins to pull away, only for her to find out that Alan also holds a hidden love for her... Or so Lewis says. With this new knowledge of love under the two's belts, Bree and Lewis must find a way to keep these bubbling feelings hidden, or it could cost them the best friendships of their lives. Their solution? Create a rule, one that prohibits any, and all relationships outside of the friend zone. Though even if Bree and Lewis think they have things all figured out, Chase and Alan each have a plan of their own; One that includes capturing the heart of Bree Hendly for themselves, no matter what the cost may be. - ◦Winner of The Rubik's Story Award in the 2017 Prose Fiction Awards. ◦Completed! ◦Sequel - The Distance Theory - is now on Wattpad! © Shay Spencer.
