Sign me up!At the glittery break-up party she throws for herself, Rachel Dumont envisions lifting a glass to celebrate being free and single again. What she actually does: Drink too much champagne and blurt out to her best guy friend that she'd really like to get back on the horse. She doesn't expect Carter Hendrix's answer to be to volunteer himself.

Especially since she's suddenly longing for her best friend, and there's nothing fake about her feelings.Plays Well With Others offers a fresh, standalone friends to lovers story that fans of top-tier contemporary romance will find impossible to put down.
