My Best Friend Is A Goddess
Sixteen-year-old Emily and Adriana have been besties since Year One. Way back when Adriana had a gap between her teeth and was super skinny. Emily wasn’t any less awkward looking, and ever since they’ve stuck together on the social sidelines.
But when Adriana returns during Year 10, after having spent eighteen months overseas, she has gone from awkward to AMAZING. As in utter goddess.
Thankfully, Adriana is no different on the inside. She’s still the same best friend Emily knows and loves. But Emily just wishes that one guy, any guy, would want to get to know her for a reason other than being Adriana’s best friend.
Cue Theo …
Two best friends crushing on one very cute guy … someone’s going to get their heart broken.
