Goodreads Synopsis:
Kristen Petersen doesn't do drama, will fight to the death for her friends, and has no room in her life for guys who just don't get her. She's also keeping a big secret: facing a medically necessary procedure that will make it impossible for her to have children.
Planning her best friend's wedding is bittersweet for Kristen—especially when she meets the best man, Josh Copeland. He's funny, sexy, never offended by her mile-wide streak of sarcasm, and always one chicken enchilada ahead of her hangry. Even her dog, Stuntman Mike, adores him. The only catch: Josh wants a big family someday. Kristen knows he'd be better off with someone else, but as their attraction grows, it's harder and harder to keep him at arm's length.

This book made me tired. Here's why.
On a superficial level, The
Friend Zone is about Kristen Peterson, who must fight off a growing
attraction to Josh Copeland, who will be the best man at her best friend's
wedding. She's in a long-distance relationship with Tyler, who works in the
military overseas and who will be coming home soon. Kristen also believes that
she and Josh would never work out, because, in the long-run, Josh wants a large
family, and Kristen cannot do that, with her big secret: after years of
painful, almost life-threatening periods, she's about to have a procedure that
will prevent her from having children.
