Did they really turn the national anthem into something I’ll never hear the same way again?!
I had a big gap between the first one and this one and didn’t really feel like it was a big deal. Definitely read them in order because couple spoilers but otherwise not super important to remember every detail of the previous book. 

Also the Russian? 
Relatable babe. Cheese and milk products🥲💀

“Fear is a powerful motivator, but so is love.”

I loved the first Bromance Book Club book, and I decided to read the rest of the series while memories of the characters are still fresh. Add the fact that I really liked Braden Mack's character in the first book, and I've been looking forward to read Undercover Bromance. It's true that Liv wasn't my favorite character in the first book, and I'm still not that big of a fan of her in this sequel, but thanks to Mack and the rest of the characters I still had a brilliant time reading it. I didn't expect this story to be quite so serious, as it has a heavy focus on sexual assault and power imbalance at the workplace. I liked how the topic was incorporated into the plot though, and I was rooting for them as they try to bring the bastard down. The only reason I didn't rate it higher is probably because of Liv; her stubbornness and attitude made it very hard to like her character, and it took way too long for her character to fully redeem herself. I absolutely loved Mack's character though, as well as the rest of the book club members and the new characters incorporated. I literally flew through this story, and I already can't wait to read the next book and learn more about Alexis.

Once again, the Bromance Book Club doesn't disappoint! I was so excited to finally read Mack and Liv's story. Enemies-to-Lovers (or Antagonists-to-Lovers?) is one of my favorite tropes. I love the constant sarcastic needling at each other, while also the deep seated way they drive the other to be a better person. This was such a great book! A lot of LOL moments, as well as moments of awe.
