Accidentally Falling For My Best Friend (Chicago Awakenings #2)


Here's Lexi Amber's "Accidentally Falling For My Best Friend." It's the second novel in her Chicago Awakenings series.

["Parker
Oakley has been my best friend since we were eight. We live together, work together, our lives are completely intertwined. His past girlfriends never understood how close we are, but Oak says the right girl wouldn’t be threatened.
I’m not so sure.
Now we’re both dating a pair of best friends who seem to get it. The four of us click instantly, and for once, everything feels… easy.
But then a dare leads to a kiss, and suddenly, nothing feels easy at all.

Oakley
Dating best friends? Genius idea. Parker and I finally found girls who don’t question how inseparable we are. I thought I’d found the one, until a silly game flipped everything on its head.
Because when I kissed Parker, it didn’t feel like a joke. It felt like something I’ve been waiting for without even realizing it.
Now I’m questioning everything…my feelings, my past, and most of all, what Parker really means to me.
Maybe the person I’ve been searching for has been by my side all along"]

Well, this thing was filllllled with angst. So much mutual pining and miscommunication and general bi-disaster-ness. But also the sweetness of crushes blooming over decades of friendship, love turning from one kind of all-consuming to another. 

These two were adorable--even if they were aggravating in their assumptions. Watching them fall in love was priceless, as was their love declarations (and multiple epilogues). 

I love this little universe with this supportive as fuck family, and I canNOT wait for Adrian's book!

Trigger Warnings: chronic illness, medical emergencies and hospital stays, death of a parent in a road accident with a drunk driver, homophobic/racist background character, risk of being cut-off for being queer for secondary character, and more.
