Review of the Friendship Pact by Jill Shalvis

Brief Summary of Book: 

Alone in the world, Tae Holmes and her mother April pretty much raised each other, but as Tae starts asking questions about the father she's never met, April, for the first time in her life, goes silent. To make matters worse, Tae is dangerously close to broke and just manages to avoid financial meltdown when she lands a shiny new contract with an adventure company for athletes with disabilities and wounded warriors.

Her first big fundraiser event falls flat, but what starts out as a terrible, horrible, no-good night turns into something else entirely when Tae finds herself face-to-face with Riggs Copeland. She hasn't seen the former Marine since their brief fling in high school, and while still intensely drawn to him, she likes her past burned and buried, thank you very much. Hence their friendship pact.

But when April oddly refuses to help Tae track down her father, it's Riggs who unexpectedly comes to her aid. On a hunt to unlock the past, the two of them find themselves on a wild ride and learn a shocking truth, while also reluctantly bonding in a way neither had seen coming. Now Tae must decide whether she's going to choose love ... or walk away from her own happiness. 

Book Review: 

I am avid reader of Jill Shalvis’s book so I was excited for the opportunity to read Jill’s new books, “The Friendship Pact.” As always Jill does a great job of making the book more than just about romance. This story talked about friendship, family and romance. I enjoyed learning about both of the main characters Tae and Riggs and what the past story was and how it got them to where they are now

As with all her books, Jill does a great job of setting the scene in a beautiful location and describing so well that you feel like you are there with the characters. 

I really enjoyed the story, the romance and humor that Jill had in this book. I can wait for her next release! It can’t come soon enough.
