Summary
I thought falling in love with my best friend would be the biggest shock of my life. I couldn’t have been more wrong….
Coming back home with my tail between my legs after a bitter divorce and a failed business venture isn’t exactly the life I’d envisioned for myself.
At least there’s Bennett. Strong and steady as always, even if there is a simmering anger in him that wasn’t there when we were boys.
When that anger finally boils over, I’m braced for a fight, but what I get instead…is a kiss.
A kiss that changes everything.
But a surprise visit threatens the new life Bennett and I are beginning to build together. Now I’m faced with an impossible choice: Return to the safe, predictable life I’d always planned on with my ex-wife….
Or take a chance on the unexpected love of a lifetime.
* * *
My Best Friend’s Secret is a friends-to-lovers, bi-awakening romance set in the cozy little town of Fairlake. And while Adam and Bennett will have cameos in future stories, each book in this series can be listened to as a standalone.

Good
I enjoyed this audiobook, it was well narrated and a good story. I especially enjoyed the beginning as Adam and Bennet found each other again and reconnected. The middle section dragged slightly and was a little predictable, but overall this was a good book with an excellent audio performance.

Great narration, but the story stalled
It is a solid book with great narration. It’s not a bad story line and the characters are developed, but for me the story just kind of lulled. There was really only two points of the story where Adam and Bennett moved the plot along and those moments were rushed. On the same hand, other parts seemed to drag. For example, after the first progression of the plot point, there was this whole scene with two other characters stories that felt weird and out of place and went on for so long.
All in all if you’re looking for something to pass time it’s a solid choice.

Great Narration on A Story That Fell Flat
So this story was just okay. The story had a lot of potential but firstly, it dragged a bit in the beginning. Then when things finally started to get moving between the characters, there was a pretty long random scene all about Chase and Devin’s history which I found kinda bizarre giving it took place the morning after Bennet and Adam’s first kiss and sexual encounter when they should have been focused more on them and where they go from here. It seemed like an inorganic way to tie in another book in the series in a shoehorned type of way, rather than Bennet or Adam actually experiencing events with other characters that we would then learn more about. The earlier scenes in the bar with Issac felt organic and made me want to know more about him, and it was such an opposite juxtaposition with the random Chase and Devin facts. I found myself thinking “Who cares? What does this have to do with Adam and Bennet?”. Adam also was annoying after the ex arrived. I get she was supposed to be angst for them but once she showed up he just fell back in to practically getting back with her, yet had no discussions about what relationship of lack there of he wanted with her despite spending weeks hanging out with her. It really irked me and almost made me think Adam really didn’t deserve Bennett. Then Adam calls and Bennet like the amazing guy he is comes running, and after Bennet being hurt again they are just slapped back together with no real buildup to it, and then the story is pretty much over. I did like Bri calling Adam out for his lack of saying anything to both her and Bennett and the epilogue was nice but at that point I was already disappointed with the story in general. Michael Dean though was the saving grace for this story as he did a wonderful job but the story overall was not as good as expected.

Adam and Bennett
Childhood best friends find new levels to their relationship. While Adam is typical dense man. But so sweet once he clues in. I adored reading the progression of their love story.

What a wonderful story
I love Michael Dean's narration of this story. He brings 5 stars to the books he narrates and this one is no different.
After a divorce battle between lawyers and his wife, Adam moves back to his childhood home. Bennett, his long time childhood friend, has been hiding his attraction/love for Adam since he was fifteen. Over the last few years Adam slowly loses contact with Bennett, and has to come to terms with the hurt that's caused.
This story brings all the feels.
1st person dual POV, childhood friends one gay and one straight (or maybe not so straight), bi-awakening, friends to lovers, brings the heat.

I loved it!
I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy this or not. I mean the trope is typical but since this was one of the author I really enjoy reading and a start to a new series I just had to give it a try. I'm glad I did...from start til the end I was hooked. Bennett and Adam relationship was always solid but when something like romantic emotions come to play it just made their bond stronger. All I know is when that major catastrophe came into play towards the end I really...really...really wanted to contact Romeo and asked what in the world was they thinking???!!! HONEYMOON time was officially over...but then I realized that's life...everything is not always cookies and cream...and WOW, everything was awkward but things worked out and I was EXTREMELY satisfied at the end. The narrator did a wonderful job...he made this a great listen and I highly recommend this to anyone who loves the best friend to lover trope.
