Best Friends' Unexpected Love

A Sweet Later in Life, Vacation Romance

By: Deanna Lilly

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Falling for your best friend is risky.
Falling for your boss? Total heart hazard.

Widowed nurse Beth has spent her life focused on her daughter and her patients.
But when her best friend—Dr. Chad Fox—invites her on a cruise, everything changes.

A week in paradise.
An unexpected confession.
And the chance to turn a decade of friendship into forever.

Beth’s always played it safe—but with turquoise waters, late-night chats, and stolen glances,
her heart has other plans.

Is it finally time to choose herself—and the man who’s quietly loved her all along?

This is her second chance at love…
if she’s brave enough to risk it all on Dr. Foxy.

This sweet, second chance, friends-to-lovers romance is a heart-tugging journey of love, laughter, and later-in-life hope—with a Valentine’s Day wedding that just might steal your breath.
A perfect gift for readers who love tropical settings, mature love stories, slow-burn chemistry, and Hallmark-style happily ever afters.

Award-winning and Amazon bestselling author Deanna Lilly writes clean, emotional romance for readers who believe love can heal, hope is never lost, and happily ever after is always worth the wait.

This book connects the Mountain Men of Whispering Pines and the Hickory Falls series.
