Sincerely, Carter by Whitney G.

“You’re more than ‘just’ my best friend, and I never want to be ‘just friends’ again.”
Arizona and Carter started as childhood enemies and quickly evolved to best friends in elementary school. Their platonic relationship carried them through high school and the majority of college. Most people couldn’t understand how they stayed so close without crossing the blurred lines of adolescent attraction. Yet they defied the odds and stayed “just friends”. They discussed every aspect of their lives. Nothing was off limits with these two. They became even closer as they grew older, comparing stories of flirting, kissing and even sex.
Arizona is an aspiring chef who secretly attends classes at the local culinary schools. She can’t afford the tuition so she tries to quietly blend in with the other students and learn from the best of chefs in the area.
Carter is a law student, top of his class. He is wealthy, good looking and has girls always fighting for his attention.
Eventually Carter realizes that Arizona has grown into a beautiful woman and finds himself attracted to her in a way he never thought possible. Arizona discovers the same about Carter. Quickly, their platonic friendship evolves into more and neither one wants to turn back. They both are suddenly feeling more and can’t deny their overwhelming lust.
The characters quickly move from friends into an awkward stage that has everyone grasping to find out how they will move forward and face this new definition of what has always been and what is to become. How do they move on from "just friends" into lovers without losing everything?

Things definitely transformed quickly from friends to lovers but I liked the bumps in the road. Thanks for reading my review!
