I usually love brother's best friend but while this started out great, it didn't work out for me in the end. Stella and Heath (more specifically Heath) hide their relationship when it starts and it hurts Stella so much and Heath just doesn't get it all. And Stella has this whole Quirky thing going on and constantly messes up sayings thing and it absolutely infuriated me. Still, I read this in a day, it's a quick read and has its fun moments and I'm still gonna pick up the last book.

Cute, simple, to the point. Realistic conflict and anxieties. Good sex.

I did not find her remixing colloquialisms to be quirky or fun it was simply annoying.
Her brother didn’t grovel enough.

Not nearly as cute and funny as the first one. Stella’s sayings were a bit cringey, but I did like her and Heath. I’m not a fan of Guy or the clear toxic masculinity going on but it’s was a decent, cute, quick Christmas romance.
