A review by deanie
Best Laid Plans by Lauren Blakely

4.0

Gabe has had a crush on Arden for the year he's known her, but his playboy reputation have had her exiling him to the friend zone. They've become very good friends, and Arden doesn't want to risk ending the friendship for the possibility of romance. However, when she realizes that none of her exes have met her needs because she's perceived as a "good girl," she decides to ask her playboy BFF for lessons on walking on the wild and sexy side.

Arden and Gabe are adorable, and their flirting is too cute. His reaction when she asks for his help is priceless (and his reaction when he realizes wants to pretend to do dirty things with him, not actually get naked together is even better). They're proof that taking it slow can be the best way to start a relationship.
