Sam can’t escape the smash hit “Lost Boy” because, well, he is the lost boy. His pop-singer ex immortalized him in a song about his childish ways, and now his comedy career is on the line.
At least he still has Bree, his best friend and confidante. Bree has always been there for Sam, but she’s never revealed her biggest secret: she’s in love with him. To help herself move on, Bree applies for her dream job across the country—and doesn’t say a thing to Sam.
But as Sam tries to resuscitate his career, he turns to Bree for support—and maybe more. In the confines of her tiny apartment, they share a different dynamic. A charged dynamic. But she’s his friend. He can’t be falling for her.
Except he is.
Are his feelings for Bree just funny business? Or is their smoldering attraction the real deal?

My Review
Sam and Bree have been inseparable since childhood, supporting each other through tough times. While they both lead successful lives in NYC – Bree as an urban planner and Sam as a popular comedian – Bree secretly harbors deep feelings for Sam. Her love remains hidden until a song by Sam’s ex forces him to seek solace in Bree’s company, changing their dynamics. “Funny Guy” is a touching friends-to-lovers tale that delves into the complexities of unrequited love and self-discovery. Both characters are well-developed, with Bree being self-aware and Sam being more impulsive. The narrative is compelling as readers witness Sam’s journey to recognize his true feelings and the blossoming romance between the duo.
