Brothers best friend that broke your heart, a common trope, but a hot one. Olivia (Liv) fell for Parker, her brothers best friend 4 years ago, and then he broke her heart and she ran away to Georgia. 4 years later shes at work, when her she runs into her brother… and Parker. And they force her to go back home to Tennessee. But now Parker is engaged and set to get married soon, but can he keep the feelings for Liv that he never lost at bay or will he break a heart again to get what he wants?

Parker is a HOT ASS man. He’s a tattoo artist who is simultaneously a badass. Well used to be before his fiancé Emily came into the picture. But when he sees Liv again while at his bachelor party, he can’t help but let the rush of feelings for her come flooding back and before he knew it he was falling for her again. And let me tell you, the whole “I can’t have you so nobody can” thing, never used to be hot to me. Until Parker entered the picture.

Liv definitely fit my expectations throughout the novel. She didn’t want Parker to break another heart so she kept her distance. But that doesn’t work too well for her. I love how we got a dual perspective (or maybe even a quad perspective if you count the flashbacks) and we got to see how they both went through the process of falling in love and breaking apart. It was heart wrenching, but it built a love for both characters. I loved the smut in the end, it was hot. Liv’s “fuck me like you hate me” was SO FUCKING HOT, I might have to use it 😅👀 but seriously the smut was well written and definitely did what it needed to.

I’ll be honest, I skimmed through most of this book. I found it cringey and annoying and while the initial concept intrigued me, that was gone by chapter 2. Nothing about this book feels natural and the characters have barely any personality. I persevered with this book because I don’t mind Holly’s fantasy series but I think I’ll give this series a miss.

Although I didn’t like it, I found it to be a little too short for what is a trauma that ensued.

This was also the first book I’ve read, where are the H is cheating to get with the h and his significant other doesn’t know.

For me, there was nothing overwhelmingly spectacular about the book, but it was a very quick read and enjoyable for how short it was.

Detta är en brothers best friend och second chance romance. Jag gillade den och om du vill ha en kort sexig bok så är denna något att titta närmare på.

Det handlar om Livy och Parker. Livy har varit borta i fyra år men hon är nu tillbaks och hennes ex Parker är fortfarande lika sexig.

Som sagt gillade jag boken och kan rekommendera den. Den är på engelska och 18+.

The first half of the book was solid with a good amount of tension between Parker and Liv. But even then the fact that Parker is engaged to Emily and pining for Liv from the beginning is more than a little uncomfortable. It isn't one of the cases where he slowly falls back in love, no, he is emotionally cheating on Emily from chapter one onwards. Spoiler
This then leads to physical cheating, while still engaged to Emily the day before the wedding rehearsal.

After Parker and Liv then get together it is just one sex scene after the other with no plot for the last third of the book. I don't mind a smutty scene but I prefer them sparse and only when they further the plot in some way.
