Just Friends: A guest blog by Minx Malone
I'd like to thanks Minx for coming on my blog and chatting about friends who become lovers.Without further ado…here's Minx.
Just Friends?
Thanks Tawny for letting me take over your blog today!
I've been thinking about trends in my writing lately and noticed that I like writing about friends who become lovers. Which led me to an interesting thought.
Can men and women really be just friends?
Now I definitely have male friends. There are all the male friends I grew up with and male friends at my day job. But none of those guys are people I'm super attracted to physically. So perhaps the real question is: can men and women who are attracted to each other be just friends?
In my latest release, Teasing Trent, Mara and Trent have been friends since college. Trent is best friends with Mara's twin brother, Matt and they've spent countless hours in each other's company. What they haven't done is admit that they're in love. It's only when Matt is deployed overseas that their feelings come to the surface. The results are a pretty interesting birthday weekend for Mara.
The only thing Trent's best friend has ever asked of him is to keep an eye on his twin sister while he's deployed. Keeping her company on her birthday shouldn't be too hard. He just has to remember the promise he made to himself in college to keep his hands off her.
Ever since Mara walked into her brother's dorm room freshman year and came face to face with a shirtless Trent, she's known he was The One. He's been right there with her twin brother as her biggest supporter or shoulder to cry on, whichever she needs most. The problem?
Trent has no idea how she feels.
Well, it's her first birthday without her twin and Trent's coming over to keep her company. It's the perfect time to tease him a little. A skimpy yoga outfit and a few glasses of wine later, she plans to finally have Trent exactly where she wants him.
In her bed, for as long as she can keep him there.
If Mara has her way, she'll get a whole lot more for her birthday than a Hallmark card.
What do you all think? Can men and women who are attracted to each other be just friends? Or are they just fooling themselves?
