5.0

Out of all the Bromance Bookclub books this one is my favorite. It focuses on my favorite character, Vlad (aka the Russian) and we get to see a larger part of his story that we got a glimpse of in Crazy Stupid Bromance. In this friends, to marriage of convenience, to maybe something more relationship we get to see more of a few characters and what it means to have a family and a found family. 5/5

This was a good entry in the series. I’m glad that the one character who’s previously been a vehicle for fart jokes gets some depth in this book. I also liked that the third act conflict felt actually meaningful, compared to in other romance novels.
