The Best Thing That Never Happened To Me

First-time novelists and long-time friends, Laura Tait and Jimmy Rice narrate a character each as they take on the long-asked question: Can men and women ever just be friends? Alex and Holly are teenage besties who lose touch and don’t rekindle their friendship until they’re almost 30.
I instantly warmed to the characters: Alex Tyler, a teacher plans to save the world one messed up teenager at a time, with his dry wit and secret love for Holly the-one-that-got-away Gordon.
