I Fell In Love with My Best Friend

Jake Wheeler has never been the dependent type. Growing up with an alcoholic mom and his dad barely around to confront the problem, he had been accustomed to being on his own and taking care of himself.

That is, until he met her: Jessica Read. She was compassionate and kind, beautiful and radiant. Her presence alone seemed to illuminate even the darkest corners of his world. Over the years, she became his closest friend.

Jake was sure he didn't have feelings for her. But then came one special night that altered everything--she came to him in tears, and the next day, he found himself with a bloody nose, a sprained wrist, and a more than bruised heart that only one person could heal.

The only problem was that she was his, but he wasn't hers.
