Goodreads:
Brina and Eagan meet for the first time when she's nine and
he's fourteen. They like each other from the very beginning, although their
bond isn't immediate, but it grows over the years. What links them is the fact
that their parents are photographers and are extremely devoted to their work
and to each other; so much so that both Brina and Eagan have to learn how to
take care of themselves from a very young age. Despite their differences, age,
gender, nationality, Brina is Italian and Eagan is American, they find comfort
in their growing friendship. Then Brina becomes a teenager, and her feelings
for her friend start changing and deepening. New desires stir within her. As
soon as Brina realizes how those feelings complicate her friendship with Eagan,
she runs away from him. A few years later, Brina is twenty and Eagan is
twenty-five, they find one another once again. Brina is studying cinema in Rome
and she's also trying to become a musician. Eagan begins to work as an
architect in the same city. Eagan wants to be a part of Brina's life anew. Brina, however, is
still in love with him; she finds it difficult to act merely as a friend and
she keeps pulling away. Set in the beautiful Rome, this is a sensual and
romantic story of friendship and love. (Recommended for ages 17+, due to sexual
content and language) Genres: Contemporary Romance, New Adult.

My Thoughts
Friends to Lovers!
This is a sweet love story that will send you on a
rollercoaster ride of emotions. The characters are very relatable and the
exotic locations will take your breath away. I loved getting caught up in the
romance between these two and feel that it was even more special because of
their friendship.
Eagan is a great hero who has a lot in common with Brina. I
could really tell he cared a lot for Brina even in the beginning. I really
enjoyed getting to know more about him and seeing his friendship with Brina
blossom into something much more.
Brina is a sweet woman and I could really relate to her, but
I was also practically shouting for her to confess to Eagan. Even so the
tension made it that much more exciting.
You won’t want to miss the memorable love story!
I love friends to lovers stories. This sounds like a good one.
