The Friend Zone

The Friend Zone is the second book in Kristen Callihan's Game On series. Star NFL tight-end Gray Grayson reluctantly borrows his agent's daughter's bubblegum-pink car while she's studying abroad, and what starts as an irate warning text over the car spirals into an easy, constant friendship with Ivy Mackenzie.

Gray doesn't do friendship with women — he does sex, and nothing more. But texting Ivy every day changes something, and when she finally comes home, the friendship he didn't see coming turns into an attraction he can't shake. Ivy has one hard rule of her own: she never gets involved with any of her father's clients, and Gray is at the top of that list.

What follows is a friends-to-lovers romantic comedy about a guarded athlete trying to talk, text, and charm his way out of the friend zone and into a relationship neither of them planned on.
