A gloriously feel-good story from the Sunday Times bestseller Would you choose your best friend over your one true love? When Emily's boyfriend posts compromising photos of her on the internet, her life goes into sharp decline. Emily is about to lose everything - including the man she thought she loved. Her best friend, Cara, is determined to mend Emily's broken heart and she believes that a little magic is all that's required. But will Cara cast the right spell to get Emily out of her current position? Or will it go horribly wrong when they both fall in love with the same man?

Welcome To The Real World
Same author's warm British humour and low-heat romance, but the pull is opposites-attract in the music industry instead of a best-friend love triangle.
Wrapped up in You
Another cosy Matthews comfort read with friendship banter and a guaranteed HEA, only here the romance sparks fast on a holiday adventure rather than tangling two friends.
El chico malo
Keeps the love triangle between friends, but it's a much darker, spicier summer affair with cheating and real guilt instead of feel-good comedy.
Slow Dance
Also friends who tiptoe around love, though this is a slower, more bittersweet decades-long ache rather than a light comic romp.
Summer Girl
Friends-to-lovers with a seaside small-town warmth, but younger, steamier and a slower burn than the comic British setup.
Us
Shares the childhood-friends-in-love pull and found-family warmth, but it's an explicit MM hockey romance with homophobia as real stakes.
