A Best Friends to Lovers Story...
I fell in love with her when I was just a boy.
And then I never fell out of love. I just fell deeper.
But she has everything. She is everything. And I have nothing to offer her. Except my heart.
Sometimes the guy gets the girl, and they live happily ever after. I wanted to be that guy, you know? Especially since I can't imagine ever loving anyone else.
Right after I work up the courage to tell her, my world gets torn apart. My dream becomes my worst nightmare.
I wish I could go back in time. I wish I had told her sooner.
But most of all...I wish it would rain again.

Darra's Review:
It is hard to put in words how excited I was to read Beth Michele's latest book. I am sure she knows that too. She writes the best happily ever afters. So I finally got the perfect book to satisfy the missing ever after's. We read Love Love a while back. Still one of our favorite books. A book great is when an author can make each character likeable and relatable. When I (along with 95% of little girls) was 6, my Barbie's story was a handsome man (Ken) would sweep her off her feet. Treat her like a princess, marry and live happily ever after. Well I found it in a book.
Dylan, oh Dylan. Can you get more perfect? Toss your Ken doll behind. Dylan is now in charge. Dylan is the epitome of passion and romance. To love one girl all your life? There is nothing that can compare to that. When a person says their vows getting married, Dylan lived by those since he was a boy. This paragraph could go on forever. Let me just say, when I told Sunny about Dylan, I just sighed.
Evie is lively and amusing. She is one of those characters that you want all happiness come her way. I cannot go further into her life and anything that happens because that would make me a spoiler. I refuse to have that word next to my name! However I would say this. She is pushed to a point where I along with Sunny had to think "How would we deal?"
I must finish this review before I hear zzzz's. Loved the characters, loved the story, loved the book. And have much love for Beth Michele. Thank you for that Happy Ever After(with a twist).
Rating for the book? A 5 will suffice. Enjoy Readers!

Sunny's Review:
Beth Michele has done it again. For The Love of Raindrops is an awesome book. I totally fell in love with Dylan. I really don't like insta-love books so since Dylan and Evie met in 1st grade and were best friends from then on this book sky rocketed towards the top of the list. I have said many times that my All-Time Favorite BBF is Phillip from That Boy by Jillian Dodd. Dylan is a very close #2. I really thought he was going to take over the #1 spot for a while and in a way he did. My goal in reading is to escape the real world so Phillip is freaking perfect. While Dylan is perfect too he is more realistic. I know so many of my reader friends prefer the more realistic perfect. Either way, Dylan is AWESOME! I love him.
I don't have many problems with Evie. There are so many girls in the book that drive me nuts and I just really don't like them. Evie is one of the few that are strong characters and their whole identity is not wrapped up in the boy. Granted Evie's identity is a little bit wrapped up in Dylan but more because they have been friends forever.
I am trying to not give anything away but Beth Michele did an amazing job making you see the very real emotions that I think someone would feel in Evie's situation. I loved it and even though I did get annoyed with her at times, I think I would have been the same.
I am giving this book 5 stars. It was really great and I think most readers will love it. So go get it!!!
