Book Description
New, REWRITTEN edition of the bestselling romcom, Unfriended: A Geek and Stud Romance Asher I always thought Charis Sloane would remain my best friend into infinity. For years we've debated philosophy together, laughed, played games, played ball. I hardly even notice the fact that she's female and I'm male. I mean, I do. But I try not to. I'm perfectly happy with my stormy, glitzy girlfriend across campus. Or at least, I tell myself I should be. Until I get the news. Sloane has gotten herself engaged. To be married. To some mysterious fiancé she refuses to name. And in the blink of an eye, everything changes. No longer can I see Sloane as just a friend. The platonic shutter has come up for good. Now I'm racing against time to convince my best friend that going through with this crazy wedding would be a colossal mistake. For the first time ever, I'm afraid my cocky charm, my iron abs and my famous "magic hands" won't land me what and who I want. The one I have this sneaking feeling I should have been with all along.... Sloane Asher - the cockiest guy on the college campus, the one who put the "stud" in student - is suddenly single. I've known Ash since way back before he got all those muscles. I know what he hides behind that brash exterior. He isn't only drop-dead gorgeous, he's loyal, funny, and smart. How can I help but harbor a secret crush? Alas, it was never happening. To his mind, I'm a buddy, "one of the dudes." Someone to shoot hoops with, debate with, never lock lips with. That being the case, I saw no reason not to accept a proposal of marriage that came my way. I assumed my best friend would be pleased. Yet he's not taking it well at all. Too, he seems to have developed an inexplicable interest in tracking my every move. His eyes have gone heated and smoky. I can only think his recent breakup has traumatized him to the point of brain damage. Somehow I have to resist the temptation to believe the signs. To believe his promises. Resist his charm, his determination... And those damn magic hands. A high-heat standalone friends-to-lovers romcom. No cheating or cliffhanger. Dear Reader, Times change, and so do authors. In a major way! The voices of my readers inspired me to rework my original story, Unfriended: A Geek and Stud Romance. Here's a rundown of what's changed. ASHER: He's still cocky, but with softer edges. SMOOTHING: The book has gone through a big edit and sweeping revision. BONUS OUTTAKES: For kicks, I've tossed in a selection of deleted scenes and previously-unpublished snippets and outtakes. FLASHBACKS: Some of the chapter-opening flashbacks got moved to bonus outtakes. Others kept their role in the evolving story. WORD COUNT: The length itself didn't change much. It went from about 91,000 to 92,000 words plus 2,500 of bonus content. I hope this version gives you all the giggles, swoons, and feels of the original, and more! Love, Deana
