This is a tough review to write because I want to rave about the book and every little thing I loved about it, but at the same time I hesitate to say anything at all because I don't want to spoil the experience for other readers. Jewel E. Ann is one of those rare authors who can take what seems to be a familiar trope and completely turn it on its head, and she's done exactly that with this book. The result was precisely the refreshingly original, funny, sweet, and endearing story that I needed to read right now, and I couldn't put it down.
If you're a fan of the friends-to-lovers trope, witty banter, and awkward but lovable characters, "What Lovers Do" is the story for you. I highly recommend it and can't wait to find out what Jewel E. Ann comes up with next.

About "What Lovers Do"
From bestselling author, Jewel E. Ann, comes a hilarious secret lovers story that redefines the meaning of friendship.
Shep’s found the female version of himself … and he thinks she’s perfect—perfectly unavailable.
Everyone loves Shep, the charismatic employee at Scottsdale’s newest pet store. He has shared custody of his two dogs with his annoying ex-wife and a smile that can disarm most women.
Except … Dr. Sophie Ryan.
What starts out as a disastrous first meeting, involving a coffee catastrophe and mistaken flirting, turns into an unconventional friendship.
Fake phone sex.
Dog park dates.
And eighteen holes of golf.
The problem? Sophie’s taken herself out of the dating pool for a mysterious reason, imprisoning Shep in the friend zone for eternity.
As their competitive personalities hit a boiling point, the gloves come off and so do their clothes. When Sophie’s “real” life threatens their relationship, can Shep let go of his past to chase the one that might get away?
