A Friendly Arrangement by Christine Warner
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Publication: October 26th, 2015 from Entangled Publishing
What happens when your plus one becomes “the one”?
Holly Haggerty and Roth Esterly are two besties with everything in common—they’re neighbors, career-driven, and commitment-phobes. Tired of always being set up on dates by well-meaning friends and family, they take matters into their own hands: they will be the other’s plus one—a little friendly arrangement between friends.
Easy…until a steamy night where they cross the line. But that’s okay, they’ll add an addendum—one that includes a little action between the sheets…on top of the sheets…and without the sheets. But there are rules. Dating and sex are exclusive until one of them decides to terminate the agreement. No slumber parties. And if either party becomes emotionally involved they will break things off with no hard feelings.
When unexpected news changes their plans and turns their fun arrangement into something more serious, Holly and Roth must come to terms with what’s more important—what they thought they wanted, or what they really need.

What happens when your plus one becomes "the one"?
Holly Haggerty and Roth Esterly are two besties with everything in common--they're neighbors,
career-driven, and commitment-phobes. Tired of always being set up on dates by well-meaning
friends and family, they take matters into their own hands: they will be the other's plus one--a
little friendly arrangement between friends.
Easy…until a steamy night where they cross the line. But that's okay, they'll add an addendum--
one that includes a little action between the sheets…on top of the sheets…and without the
sheets. But there are rules. Dating and sex are exclusive until one of them decides to terminate
the agreement. No slumber parties. And if either party becomes emotionally involved they will
break things off with no hard feelings.
When unexpected news changes their plans and turns their fun arrangement into something
more serious, Holly and Roth must come to terms with what's more important--what they
thought they wanted, or what they really need. (Amazon blurb)
In the same style as A friendly Engagement, Christine Warner writes her second novel of the
series, A Friendly Arrangement; as I had a problem with the first in the sense that I found certain
parts too aloof or simply narrow minded, some parts of this novel were simply showing
characters that were too immature for their age. Certainly having no responsibilities, no actual
relationship between the two of them and being best friends adds to the atmosphere of being
carefree and immature for Holly and Roth, I would have expected that once their attraction was
accepted or they stopped ignoring it, they would at least take some things a bit more seriously.
However, that is simply a pet peeve of mine and it doesn’t take away from the storyline nor from
the work the author did. I loved the story line and the series themselves and other than my pet
peeves from the beginning of the series, it is quite enjoyable and situations in which I have no
problems seeing happening to two friends or two personal friends of mine.
