Friends Don't Say Goodbye
Austin Belvinz is heartbroken after telling his best friend Annika Mathers that he was in love with her. He never thought they'd not be together but she fell in love with someone else, moving out and getting on with her life, without him. It hurt like hell to say goodbye to his best friend and mending his shattered heart is even more painful than saying goodbye.
But with the help of some good friends and a new love interest falling at his feet Austin begins to realise that maybe Annika wasn't his to begin with.
Can Austin and Annika mend their friendship, to be the friends they once were? And will Austin finally get over his commitment issues to fall in love with someone new?

About the author
Caz May
38 books80 followers A writer of loveable Aussie heroes. Queen of Angst and Drama
Caz May is a librarian/teacher by trade but was always destined to be an author from a young age. In her spare time, she can be found devouring books or writing her own stories with characters that may not be the typical romance heroes but are loveable just as much.
Caz is married to her own real-life bearded hero and has two fur babies.
She lives for Iced coffee, especially from Gloria Jeans or a Farmers Union but pretty much just loves food in general.
When she’s not writing or reading a book most likely she can probably be found asleep or binge-watching shows on Netflix.

Wow, that was one steamy read. I had to put myself into a younger mindset for this one. That being said, I couldn’t wait to find out who ended up with who. I hope we find out more about Bella in book 3!

Just like the first book, I was hooked from the start. There's multiple POVs so we can get a glimpse at other characters and what's going on in their heads, I really enjoy getting these different angles. There's a lot of sweet moments and a lot of steam. The sex scenes are seriously hot.
This is Austin's story, who we saw get his heart broken in the first book. My favourite thing about this, is it's largely about him learning about himself and accepting who he is. He grows throughout the story and it was very interesting to watch.
This story kept me guessing a little bit which I really enjoyed. I was eager to see what was coming next and didn’t want to put it down.

Caz may is a relatively new author, this is her second published book. As a self-published Aussie Author I really stand behind her she has bought some great stories to life...
I honestly love this series. It raw, it intense, there's some hot scenes. Not only do u get the p.o.v from the main characters but u get a few extras too.
This is a great read, certainly entertaining. I love the way she entwines her characters. The chemistry is off the charts. This book has some seriously hot as fuck scenes.
I can't wait to see what else Caz May brings to the table.

Once again, i was hooked from the start. Friends Don't Saty Goodbye was sometimes raw but at the same time full of lust, love and sex. I loved following Austin, Bella, Jaxon, Kaden and Dana, plus having the little snippets from Annika and Jairus was amazing also! I loved the moments between a certain two aussie hotties out of the boxing ring - was such a refreshing twist in the story.
Caz, thank you for being you and making this story awesome. I can't wait for book three and to see where Travis takes us. 5 stars' once again! Well done Ms. May xx

PHEW! What a smoking hot read this was! Caz May sure can write a sex scene like its nobody's business! 🙆🏻♀️
What a fantastic follow up, Caz May! This story is a page turner and kept me on my toes and guessing who would end up with who the entire time. And I have to say, I love the Aussie slang. I’m looking forward to book 3!!!

I dont get how anyone can rate this book a two star read. I Loved this book...just as much as the first one in this series. The chemistry between the characters is amazing and I cant wait to see where Caz May takes us in book three.

Love the love story between these characters. Keeps you guessing the whole way through. Who's going to end up with who? I love the little easter eggs hidden for the future books. Very well written and very enjoyable. Not a book to be skipped.

This series is keeping me on my toes! 😍
Continuing on with book two of the Always Only You series, Friends Don’t Say Goodbye by Caz May was full of twists, surprises and sizzling moments.
Falling in love with your best friend and watching them fall for another person down right sucks. So when time comes for one to move on there’s only one thing to do and that’s get lost in ones self; this is what Austin found himself doing more often than not.
With everything going on around him Austin has many decisions to make, but having conflicting feelings these decisions aren’t as easy as he’d hoped.
With some friends help and many revelations, Austin soon comes to realise the state of his emotions and the new obstacles he will come to face.
Can Austin reinvent himself and find the love he deserves?
I’m on a roll with this mind blowing series. Just when I think I’ve figured it all out Caz throws me completely off. I love it!
This book extracts so many different emotions; at one stage I was upset with Austin’s idiocy while other times so wonderstruck with all the compassion.
Keeping on, I’ll be devouring book three in no time.
I recommend this.
*This contains lots of scorching hot scenes and some good Aussie slang*

Caz, you did it again. This book was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!
Just when I thought I figured it all out, you throw me with another curveball.
This book was full of surprise elements, angst(lots of it) and extremely hot moments as well as sweet ones. I feel satisfied with the outcome of some of the characters relationships/lives. Although all the stories interlink, each book is still a standalone.
Now just Bella that still needs to find her happily ever after. Who will it be???

Wow! I loved this book...just like the first one. This was a lot steamier than the first one, super hot actually...and dirty with some boy and boy action. I couldn't put it down...and stayed up way to late reading this book. This series is really different to anything i've read before, and i love the multiple narrators. Definitely worth the read. The Aussie slang is also really cool.
I'm so excited about book three.

Well Caz has done it again with Friend's Don't Say Goodbye, you kept on my toes and guessing all the time who Austin was going to be with! Didn't see some of those little surprises coming! Austin ended up with the perfect girl! Fantastic story with lots of hot and steamy moments! Perfect ending! Looking forward to Travis's story!

This story is a page turner! With so many twists and turns, it took. me a minute to process everything when the story was over, but I loved it. Friends Don't Say Goodbye picks ups right where Roommates Don't Kiss And Tell left off and includes off of the original characters plus some new ones. Believe me when I say you won't be disappointed with this one!

Love, love, loved!
This series is so good. And this one is super steamy. So good. I shall devour the next ones. I can't get enough of these characters and Caz's writing.

I'm not sure what to say about this book, to be honest.
Friends don't say goodbye is neither a good read nor a bad read. I don't find that it hooks me, it is definitely readable but it lacks something. I am looking forward to reading the next book as Bella has me intrigued as well as a few other characters.
A lot of this book is well written. The characters are strong and portrayed well.
This book is basically written porn. Every chapter has a sex scene or leads to a sex scene, some really good sex scenes at that. Caz May writes sex well.
