One Favour Too Familiar by LOVVA
One afternoon. A borrowed van. A letter that changes everything.
One Favour Too Familiar is a standalone friends-to-lovers romance novella by LOVVA. Set in contemporary Australia, it follows Clara Bennett and Owen Mercer as a moving-day discovery turns a comfortable friendship into something neither can keep politely ignoring. Your purchase includes both PDF and EPUB editions.
Helping her move was the easy part
At thirty-four, Clara is starting again in Sydney with a new flat, an optimistic number of boxes and a determination to build a life that feels like her own.
Asking her oldest friend to help her move seems sensible. Owen knows where she keeps the emergency biscuits, can negotiate a sofa through a narrow stairwell and rarely complains about her definition of “a few things”.
Then a folded letter slips out of an old cookbook.
Owen wrote it seven years ago. Clara was never supposed to find it like this. And suddenly, the person who knows her best has something rather important to explain.
Old friends. New possibilities.
What follows is a romance filled with affectionate banter, deliberately planned dates, unexpected kisses and the awkward business of asking questions they once assumed they knew the answers to.
Clara is finding her creative voice. Owen is learning that being loved does not require being endlessly useful. When a six-week work opportunity takes him away, they must discover whether their new relationship has room for both their ambitions.
Warm, witty and emotionally grounded, this story explores the difference between knowing someone’s history and choosing to understand who they are today.
