Everything to Lose: A Childhood Friends to Lovers, Small Town Romance (Newberry Springs Series Book 1) Kindle Edition
Well, have you heard the one where the twin brother of the boy steps in and kisses the girl to make his brother jealous?
No?
Then let me enlighten you.
Wyatt Gibson has been my best friend since we were in diapers, and I’ve loved him since we were ten.
But when Wyatt left for college and I stayed back in our hometown of Newberry Springs, Texas, I gave up on the idea of us ever ending up together, even though he kissed me the night before he left.
Flashforward eight years and now I’m helping him run his business as I dance around the fact that I’m hopelessly in love with him and probably always will be.
But giving in to those feelings means risking everything dear to me in my life—his family, which is very much my own, and a lifelong friendship that I cherish more than wondering what it would be like to be his in every way.
Life was normal until Wyatt’s twin brother, Walker, decided he was tired of us tiptoeing around each other, and devised a plan to make Wyatt admit his feelings as well.
So he kissed me.
And even though I knew it would hurt Wyatt, it felt good to play with fire—to go against the safe boundaries that I’ve lived my life within out of fear of everything changing.
But everything did change.
Everything became hazy and dangerous all at once.
And suddenly, I went from having everything…to having everything to lose.

From the Publisher

A childhood friends to lovers, small town romance with a meddling twin brother...
Praise for Everything to Lose
Bec Reads says, "Kelsea and Wyatt have been best friends since they were kids and they have secretly been in love with each other for years! Wyatt leaves for college and Kelsea stays in their country town and gave up on the idea of them ever being together.
FLASH FORWARD eight years later and now Kelsea is helping Wyatt run his own business all while still madly (and secretly) in LOVE!
It isn’t until Wyatt’s twin brother Walker decided to help Wyatt see that it’s Kelsea he really wants as a life partner and Walker kisses Kelsea in front of Wyatt and as you expect Wyatt is BURNING RED and SPARKS FLY and Wyatt finally realizes that Kelsea is all he needs and wants and he takes her to be his LOVER. Kelsea now has EVERYTHING TO LOSE. This was an epic journey. I loved the whole book and the ending was super super super sweet and yes I did she’d a tear or two. There’s also a sneaky intro into book 2 and let me tell you, MY JAW HIT THE FLOOR! It’s going to be another great ride."
Smalltown Romance done right!
Emily says, "Friends to lovers is one of my least favorite tropes but this book just hit differently! The TENSION and the actual REAL REASONS for Wyatt and Kelsea not taking their friendship to the next level actually MADE SENSE but that didn’t mean that I didn’t want to shake and yell at them to get together already because THEY WERE MEANT TO BE!
I loved watching Wyatt and Kelseas relationship grow and seeing them be brave for eachother and THEMSELVES! The found family in this book was CHEFS KISSES!!! It was so beautiful and it was just so genuine! Every side character had a purpose to the story and just made you feel apart of Newberry Springs! And then Harlow will leave you with the most EPIC mouth dropping sneak peek into walkers book and you I’ll wonder around aimlessly for months wondering."

SPICE: 🔥🔥🔥
Hear me out, Harlow James. Would it have hurt to have Kelsea end up with both twins?
Yeah, yeah, this isn't that kind of romance read, but a girl can hope.
Kelsea has grown up with the Gibson Family ever since she was a little girl left by her own mother. She is close with everyone, but most especially with Wyatt, one of the twins. After all, they spent every waking moment together as kids, and despite the brief separation due to Wyatt going away for college, they ended up inseparable once again as they work together in Wyatt's brewery.
Kelsea has loved Wyatt for as long as she can remember, but he seems to keep her at arm's length. No, no, it's not that he has put her in the friend zone. Quite contrary, despite his strong attraction and feelings for Kelsea, he has seemed to suppress those, much to the frustration of Kelsea and his family, especially twin brother Walker. When Walker takes the matter into his own hands and asks Kelsea out on a date, Wyatt starts to realize that pretending Kelsea belongs in the friend zone might not be such a good idea after all.
Holy chemistry, Batman! Kelsea and Wyatt certainly did not lack that in this read. While she also had some nice flirtatious exchanges with Walker -- thus, my aforementioned request -- her connection was deeply rooted with her favored twin. Wyatt was certainly slow in the uptake, but once he decided to join the romance party, the man did not quit. The bar bathroom scene alone was the stuff of thirsty literary traps, and Wyatt just kept leveling it up from there.
Harlow James is always a one-click for me, because she is a magician when it comes to balance. We don't lose sight of Kelsea and Wyatt's love story in this first release of the Newberry Springs series, while learning the different characters we will get to know in subsequent reads. Meeting the Gibson clan and other personalities from Newberry Springs is organically done throughout her story without losing pace.
This was a phenomenal kick-off to the series, and it leaves you wanting more from the fictional people of this quaint little town. I've gotten over my sadness over Kelsea not ending up with both twins and am ready for the next book, please.

📍Small town
📍Friends to lovers
📍Found family
Wyatt and Kelsea have been best friends since diapers. This story shows how their friendship evolved over the years. They've always had feelings for each other but have never acted on it for fear of ruining their friendship. Family decides to intervene and help them along and it's so fun to watch!
I don't understand why Wyatt was so upset about it, but things do work out so it's fine!

- Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2023The vibes are perfection in this angsty friends to lovers, small town romance. Wyatt and Kelsea have been best friends since they were babies. Feelings develop later but there’s always something stopping them from crossing the line. When Wyatt moves back home after college and opens his brewery, Kelsea is there, running the business right along side him. THE ANGST YALL. The chemistry!
When Wyatt’s twin brother, Walker, has had enough of these 2 skirting around their feelings for each other, he convinces Kelsea to date him and drive Wyatt insane. Well…..it works. Wyatt stakes his claim and the man is POSSESSIVE and has an alpha side! I had butterflies and was wound up tight waiting for them to FINALLY get together. But he’s also a big sweetheart and so romantic! All the heart eyes for Wyatt!
But when everything is perfect, and Kelsea has the man of her dreams, she also has everything to lose. Kelsea is strong, smart, vulnerable and talented. I loved her and related to her. Wyatt is reliable, steadfast, and loves Kelsea with his entire being.
You don’t want to miss this brand new, small town, friends to lovers, forced proximity, meddling brother, angsty romance! I can wait for the rest of the Gibson brothers to get their hea!!!

- Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2025Kelsea & Wyatt have known each other all their lives. They're best friends. They shared a kiss at 10 years old, and another one after they graduated - before Wyatt left for college. But they never dated or had a romantic relationship, although Kelsea has been in love with him as long as she can remember. Neither of them is willing to voice their feelings because they fear the loss of a lifelong friendship. Until Wyatt's brother decides to take Kelsea on a date (to make him jealous and realize what he really has to lose).
This is a sweet story, but there is a lot of non-communication going on between our two mains, even once they admit their feelings.
I loved the small town family feel this story evokes, for sure.
Sweet Scale: 5/5
Spicy Scale: 3.5/5 (maybe a 4?)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great romance and start to a new series
I was really looking forward to this small-town romance by Harlow James and I loved it and enjoyed the characters so much.
The story follows Wyatt and Kelsea, who are best friends since childhood and both have feelings for each other but never act on them. So, Walker, Wyatt's twin pretends to date Kelsea, in order to get Wyatt to act on his feelings. And the story goes from there. We got a glimpse into these characters in the standalone story Guilty as Charged and I really enjoy that we now got their full story.
As always I loved Harlow's writing style and I flew through this story. It was nice to have a small-town background and I am looking forward to seeing Walker's and Forest's stories.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tugged On My Heartstrings!
If you're in the mood for a best friends to lovers romance...Everything To Lose by Harlow James is the one to give you all the feels when friends finally cross that line. Angst. Tension. Heart-Swooning. And a great cast of characters to lure us into the charming town of Newberry Springs...keeping us there. Waiting for the next in the series! Ms. James is always a one-click author for me and her stories really do tug on my heartstrings!
"..stands the test of time because I know that some love stories do last, even when they start at just ten years old..."
Kelsea and Wyatt have been friends since childhood. That first kiss when they were ten to promise they'd marry starts the tug. The friends who fell in love but were too scared to admit it, thinking they had everything to lose. Until Walker, Wyatt's twin, steps in with a kiss for Kelsea and a plan to make his brother come to his senses.
"I thought I would lose everything if I gave in to these feelings. But it turns out, I had nothing but the rest of my life to gain by letting my heart lead the way."
A journey of confessing love and building a relationship. A part so new, so different from what they've been used to.
Together, through communication and compromise, laughter and tears, unconditional love and sizzling hot chemistry, these two have everything to gain.
I can't begin to tell you how much I adored these two and their family, friends and this charming Texas town. It was one of those stories you want to read faster as you cheer them on to cross that line from friendship to lovers. And it's one of those stories you pull on the reigns to slow down so the story never ends. Thank you Harlow for making it a series!
What a sweet-sexy-swoonworthy read with an adorable sexy Texan! Looking forward to the twin brother's story (also hot!)

5.0 out of 5 stars 5 star read!!!
This book was honestly incredible.
I was so hooked in from the start and adored Kelsea and Wyatt.
Kelsea and Wyatt have been best friends since they were kids and they have secretly been in love with each other for years! Wyatt leaves for college and Kelsea stays in their country town and gave up on the idea of them ever being together.
✨ FLASH FORWARD AND WE’RE TAKIN ON THE WORLD TOGETHER ✨ (yes I had to sneak in a Taylor Swift reference because the cover gives off major Mine music video vibes) ok now my Swifty moment is over, eight years later and now Kelsea is helping Wyatt run his own business all while still madly (and secretly) in LOVE!
It isn’t until Wyatt’s twin brother Walker decided to help Wyatt see that it’s Kelsea he really wants as a life partner and Walker kisses Kelsea in front of Wyatt and as you expect Wyatt is BURNING RED 🔥 and SPARKS FLY and Wyatt finally realises that Kelsea is all he needs and wants and he takes her to be his LOVER.
Kelsea now has EVERYTHING TO LOSE.
This was an epic journey. I loved the whole book and the ending was super super super sweet and yes I did she’d a tear or two. There’s also a sneaky intro into book 2 and let me tell you, MY JAW HIT THE FLOOR! It’s going to be another great ride.
As always I highly recommend Harlow James. She is hands down one of my favourite romance authors.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Small Town Romance you didn’t know you needed !
“All it takes is coming close to losing someone you love once to realise that life can end so quickly, you’d be a fool not to make each day count”
Childhood best friends to lovers : Check
Found family : Check
Small town : Check
When destiny is right in front of your eyes your whole life but you are too scared to act , what do you do ? When everything is on a high stake ? When you can lose the one constant in your life do you act upon your feelings?
When you can lose everything? But what if .. what if you win everything you ever dreamt in your life…
Kelsea and Wyatt were attached to the hip since they remember each other. Everyone around them knew that they were meant for one another but both of them were too scared to act upon what their hearts desired for so long. After all the stakes were too high so many things to lose.
Enter Walker, Wyatt’s twin brother giving a kiss to Kelsea and guess what happens..
I loved this story so much. I usually avoid friends to lovers like a plague but when Harlow announced her new release I knew I had to read it! It’s comfy, it’s easy to read , with the right amount of spice and angst! Being transferred to Newberry Springs I felt the warmth of the summer, the long starry nights, the endless fields, small town vibes, the love in the air..
True to her signature Harlow manages to pass her message through her comfy stories.. follow your dreams no matter what, it’s better to live a life where you have tried even if your dreams don’t always success rather than to live a life full of what ifs and regrets..
And it really shows that if you find the one, no matter what happens , no matter where you will always find your way back to them.. to your home
What wouldn’t I give to read it again for the first time ..
PS. Kudos to Momma G as I fell in love with how amazing and a great role model she is !
