Not Here to Stay Friends

Two childhood best friends reunite in L.A. the summer before senior year but when one of them ends up starring on a teen reality dating show, their feelings for each other get complicated. Perfect for fans of friends-to-lovers rom-coms and The Bachelor!

Sloane McKinney feels like a background character in her own life. But this summer will be different, because she s spending it with her childhood best friend, Liam Daniels, in her dream city, Los Angeles. Sure, she s surprised to find that Liam just happens to have had a Hot Guy glow-up since she last saw him, but so what? A little attraction won t ruin her plans for their fun and completely platonic reunion.

What might, however, is that Liam has been roped into working for his producer dad s new teen reality dating show, Aspen Woods s Future Leading Lady. It turns out the show is one contestant short . . . and Sloane is the perfect last-minute addition.

But it s behind the scenes where the drama really picks up. Because wanting to kiss your best friend? That s a plot twist neither Sloane nor Liam ever saw coming.
