With Love, Melody by Emily Dana Botrous

Two best friends and the chance to choose love over fear.
One kiss. That’s all it took to land TJ Halverson firmly in the friend zone. But he’s tired of letting fear of a repeated rejection hold him back from Melody. So tired he’s willing to stoop to a desperate level—one that might put their whole friendship on the line.
Melody Reed is a perpetual disappointment. Ask her mother. Or the cast in the disastrous play she’s directing. Her best friend TJ just can’t see it because she’s never let him—a fact she doesn’t plan on changing. It’s a relief when she finds herself spilling her secret fears and failures to a new online love interest, instead.
When TJ’s feelings become an undeniable force between them, Melody has a decision to make. Stay where it’s safe and let TJ go for good—or risk her entire identity for a chance at something better.
“You’re my best friend. I don’t want to ruin what we have.”
“But what if we could have something better?”
