- friends to lovers
- roomies
- found family
- mutual pining
Roxie has recently opened a board game with two of her best friends, places an ad looking for a roomie to help bring in some extra income. In comes the adorable Mel, who has recently moved cross country for a job that she doesn't particularly enjoy, but was in desperate need of a change of scenery.
The pair hit it off instantly, with both women feeling attraction toward the other, but both a bit gun shy due to their previous relationships. Their friendship deepens and there's tons of pining on both ends, with the pair eventually admitting their feelings around the 80% mark.
Roxie and Mel's story was cute, but the burn was a bit too slow for my liking. Things definitely do get steamy once these two ladies get together though, which was fantastic, but I would have honestly preferred seeing more of their established relationship then this long pining (but that's just me lol)
