<b>Fall in love with this hilarious and heartwarming <i>USA Today </i>bestselling romantic comedy that LJ Shen calls "an absolute treat."</b><br />Kristen Peterson doesn't do drama, will fight to the death for her friends, and has no room in her life for guys who just don't get her. She's also keeping a big secret: facing a medically necessary procedure that will make it impossible for her to have children.<br />Planning her best friend's wedding is bittersweet for Kristen -- especially when she meets the best man, Josh Copeland. He's funny, sexy, never offended by her mile-wide streak of sarcasm, and always one chicken enchilada ahead of her hangry. Even her dog, Stuntman Mike, adores him. The only catch: Josh wants a big family someday. Kristen knows he'd be better off with someone else, but as their attraction grows, it's harder and harder to keep him at arm's length.<br /><i>The Friend Zone</i> will have you laughing one moment and grabbing for tissues the next as it tackles the realities of infertility and loss with wit, heart, and a lot of sass.<b><br /></b><b>"Your next favorite romantic comedy...<i>The Friend Zone</i> is that rare beach read with tons of heart that will make you laugh and cry in equal parts." ---PopSugar</b><b><br /></b><b>"Your next rom-com to obsess and cry over." --</b><i>-<b>Cosmopolitan</b></i><br /><br /><b>Bookish Best Books of 2019 </b><b>SheReads Best Romances of 2019 </b><b><i>Women's Health</i> Best Romance Novels of 2019 </b><b><i>O, The Oprah Magazine </i>Best Romance Novels of 2019 </b><b><i>Good Housekeeping </i>Best New Books for Summer 2019 </b><b>PopSugar Best Books of Summer 2019 </b><b>Bookstr Ultimate Summer 2019 Reading Guide </b><b><i>Publishers Weekly </i>Starred Review </b><b><i>Booklist </i>Starred Review </b><b><i>Booklist </i>Top 10 Romance Debuts of 2019 </b>
