It's Him - J. Nichole - Bog

"If we are single at 40, let's get married."
That's the pact Janice should have had with Ben, her best friend since high school. But she didn't because he was her best friend, and only her best friend. Honestly. Yeah, she thought he was sexy, he always made her laugh, and she could count on him for just about anything. But dating him? That was never a thought that crossed her mind.
Ben tried rekindling his love with his ex-girlfriend, after years of being apart. She was beautiful, had a caring spirit, and was familiar. Oh, and she was the mother to his fourteen-year-old daughter. Trying with her wasn't right though. It didn't take long for him to realize, everything that was wrong with his ex, was right with Janice.
But when he admits that to Janice, will she forego their friendship, in favor of more?
