Friends Don't Fall in Love by Erin Hahn follows the story of Lorelai Jones, who once had it all: a thriving country music career and a superstar fiancé. Everything changed when she played one small protest song at a concert, ruining her entire future, including her impending celebrity marriage. Five years later, Lorelai refuses to give up on her dreams and reaches out to the one person who stuck by her—her dear friend and former fiancé's co-writer and bandmate, Craig.

Craig Boseman has held a torch for Lorelai for years, even though he knows the backup bass player never gets the girl. However, things are different now. Craig owns his own indie record label and his songwriting career is taking off. If he can confront his past and embrace his gifts, he might just help Lorelai achieve the comeback she deserves—and perhaps win her heart in the process.

As they reunite to rebuild her career, Lorelai discovers a lot about what friends don't do. For instance, friends don't have scratch-that-itch sex. They also don't nearly kiss on street corners, publish secret erotic poetry about each other, engage in counter-top sex, write songs for one another, have no-strings motorcycle sex, or go on dates. And they certainly don't fall in love... right?

Friends Don't Fall in Love by Erin Hahn is a tale of long-time friends, taking chances, and realising that sometimes, your perfect person has been right there in your corner all along.
