I just finished the Friend Zone Experiment by Zen Cho and here are my thoughts.
When Renee's father wants to retire but her brothers are still not up to the task of taking over so her dad wants Renee in the running. Trouble starts when she runs into an old love and he is trying to solve a mystery surrounding a company but it's the same company Renee's fathers business is bidding for a contract with...
The narration was wonderful. I love melodic voices and this was perfect.
Renee is rich and lovely but being estranged from her family and in a country that isn't her native home, she is lonely and her heart is fairly closed off after a man she loved, Ket, stopped talking to her right when she thought they were going to get together and she never quite got over it.
Ket left her out of family obligation but he never told her the truth and 10 years on, he never really got over her either. It was a wonderful second chance romance story.
I loved the plot, it wasn't just a fluffy romance, there is a really interesting mystery weaved in it too. It's a secondary plot but it gives you context of why Ket is the way he is. He had to give up on his dreams and he also had to leave his home because of the secret his family is hiding. They are in danger and he isn't willing to put anyone in danger.
It was a really great book. One of the best ones I have listened to in ages. A romance with some real depth... CHEFS KISS!!
If you like a little mystery in your romance, give this one a go.
4.5 stars
