Can't Fight This Feeling by Claire Hastings
Series : Indigo Royal Resort #1
Genre : Contemporary Romance
Publication Date : May 4th, 2020
From debut author, Claire Hastings, comes a fresh, fun, and unputdownable romance where having a crush on your best friend isn't the biggest secret at the Indigo Royal!
For as long as Kyle Egan can remember, he has wanted only one thing: to run his own boat charter company. Not that he has much to complain about, as the lead charter boat captain at the Indigo Royal Resort in St. Thomas USVI. He gets to spend his days out on the water, never has to wear a tie, and works alongside his best friend, Drea Miller, who happens to be the only other thing he wants.
Drea Miller has been crushing on her best friend Kyle since the moment she saw him five years ago. Unfortunately, she is fully aware that he doesn’t see her as more than a friend— oh, and the niece of his bosses. Working for the family-owned resort with her three annoyingly overprotective uncles has always been what she wanted, but lately she’s started to wonder what else life might hold. If she can't have the guy she wants, maybe it’s time that she makes another dream a reality.
When an encounter with a guest brings out the truth, Kyle and Drea are left trying to navigate their feelings, but can their new love survive a revelation they never saw coming?

Friends to lovers is one romance trope that I never really liked much till a few years back.After reading some solid books with this trope during the last year, I've pushed myself to read more romance books which have a similar premise and I'm really liking it!
This book follows Kyle and Drea, a pair of best friends who work together and are secretly crushing on each other without knowing that the other likes them back! These kinda friends-to-lovers stories are my favorite! We've also got an amazing set of secondary characters with my favorites being Drea's uncles! They were totally awesome!
It was fun watching the push-pull between Drea and Kyle, and I was waiting for them to get together! And when they finally do, it's even more amazing! The setting and the writing was equally good!
There's nothing much that sets this one apart from the other contemporary romance books in this genre, but I think it was pretty good for a debut novel with amazing characters! With everything that's been happening around the world, this book was a perfect read for me to escape into!
*An ARC was provided in exchange for an honest review*
Claire Hastings is a walking, talking awkward moment. She loves Diet Coke, gummi bears, the beach, and books (obvs). When not reading she can usually be found hanging with friends at a soccer match or grabbing food (although she probably still has a book in her purse). She and her husband Drew live in Atlanta with their fur-child Denali.
