Cuteee!
This was a slow burn compared to what I normally read. But it was so cute and fluffy. The best friends brother trope… Chef’s kiss. With just a little spice🥰

Cute destination romance
This one was fun! Right at the beginning we're hit with some drama when Gabrielle's boyfriend is caught cheating on her. The timing can't be any worse because she's planning a trip to her friends destination wedding, and was desperately wanting a male companion since everyone was bringing their boyfriends. When one of her best friends suggests bringing her brother along, it's an easy fix because they've always gotten along and he's sure to be fun. So sure, the relationship starts on a bit of a lie where he's pretending to be her man so people won't ask her questions about her recent breakup, but it's easy to see how they evolve into something more serious because these two fit together so well. They hold hands, cuddle, and truly paint the picture that they're a new couple, but in the midst of all of that they start feeling real things. I really enjoyed this one!

This was so freaking cute. Like kick your feet and giggling cute. I couldn’t put it down. I had everything you love about fake dating but with open communication and a willingness to be vulnerable that made it absolutely top tear! This is a new to me author and the cover is what immediately grabbed my attention. I was a little bit worried because it’s friends to lovers but wasn’t the typical dynamic. Saint is definitely a book bae and Gabby was such an adorable and loveable character. The pacing was perfect, and while some might find it a little long I loved spending time with these characters so I have no complaints. I also loved the chemistry and connection, all the little inside jokes and moments were so good. And the soft way Saint went about giving Gabby her confidence in voicing her wants was my favorite part. Can’t wait to read more.

4.5 ⭐️This was so cozy and cute!! I giggled, blushed, and silently screamed for the majority of the book. 🤗 What would you do if you were supposed to be fake-dating your best friend’s brother, but the lines started to blur? I loved the vacation setting and the snowy vibes. The group dynamic was so fun, and I really appreciated that it wasn’t drama-filled. Everyone was just having a good old time in the mountains and enjoying each other. The warm and tender moments weren’t too explicit; they were just the right vibe for this book. Overall, this was definitely a breath of fresh air for me 🥰
