Title: Written for You
Author: Robin Bielman
Genre: Contemporary Romance
About Written for You:
Cam Radcliffe is on a deadline to write his next blockbuster action film, but all he can think about lately is writing romance. The inspiration? His best friend, Reese.They’ve known each other for years, but suddenly working in the same office has given him a whole new appreciation of her. Reese is driving him wild in the best possible way, and Cam only hopes it isn’t obvious. If she knew, he’s certain their friendship would reach The End.
So, of course, Reese figures it out. But the awkward, negative response he expected is nothing like the reality—like they’re living their own romcom.
A romcom that’s giving him the worst case of writer’s block at the absolute worst time in his career. Especially when the secret Reese has been forced to keep comes out…and threatens to ruin everything.
Reese and Cam have essentially been best friends their entire lives. It happened naturally, as their adoptive mothers are best friends. But they also just have this unique bond holding them together, different from the one Reese has with Cam’s adoptive brothers.
It can be difficult to realize that your best friend is the one you’re meant to be with. And it takes almost 20 years for the two of them to realize that they have a thing for each other. The timing had to be just right and Reese seems to finally be ready to settle down in life.
They really push each other, and this is best demonstrated when they decide to have a sort of write-off of screenplays. Only Reese is also hiding a secret about those screenplays.
I greatly enjoyed their banter and how they support each other in friendship. I completely understand their concerns in pursuing something more because of that strong family history and bond. I don’t like that Reese is keeping a major secret from Cam, but I understand her motivation.
The part where all of that comes to a head felt a little off to me. There’s something in the way it is all initially handled and those initial reactions that felt a little out of sync or disproportionate to the way the secret was revealed. It’s hard to describe without spoilers.
But other than what felt to me like a slight hiccup in the storytelling, I greatly enjoyed reading this book. It was perfect for sitting on the deck during these waning days of summer. I hope there are more books to come, perhaps featuring Cam’s brothers, so we can see them find happiness and also be able to check in on these two.
