Hab es als HÖRBUCH gehört :
Die Geschichte nimmt sehr schnell Fahrt auf, das kam für mich ziemlich unerwartet. Die beiden Charaktere Jed und Molly waren mir zudem leider relativ egal und unsympathisch. Das stellt natürlich ein Problem dar, weil es um diese beiden geht.
Jed stellt den klassischen Bad boy da. Er interessiert sich nur für sich selbst. Molly ist das scheinbare Mauerblümchen mit einer „komplizierten“ Vergangenheit. Eigentlich heult sie die ganze Zeit rum und dackelt Jed hinterher.
SPOILER
Die Tocher von Jed spricht kaum, aufgrund der traumatischen Ereignisse. Aber das kommt nicht so authentisch rüber. Trotzdem ist sie der Grund, weshalb ich dem Buch zwei Sterne gebe und nicht nur einen. Ich wollte wissen, ob die Kleine zurecht kommt. Die Liebesgeschichte zwischen Molly und Jed war langweilig und sehr körperlich fixiert. Mir war auch nicht schlüssig, wieso sie mit 30+ auf einmal alles aufs Spiel setzen und miteinander schlafen. Alle scheinen zudem damit gerechnet zu haben. Das Ende war auch unbefriedigend, aber ich hab nicht viel erwartet. Das schlechteste Buch der Reihe (bis jetzt): Schade.

The Greene Family is by far one of my favorite series to lose myself in, from the small-town setting to the family that makes you feel like you're a part of it. Every element of this series makes you feel like you belong, and for some, that isn't the case, so this magical world with the loving family provides a literary hug that surrounds your heart in all the good feels.
Molly is sharp-witted and driven, and she has no intention of letting a man into her life or her heart. As Nikki's best friend and because they genuinely love her, she is an honorary member of the Greene family. I've been looking forward to her and Jed's story because there has always been an underlying tension between them. However, I quickly discovered that there was much more between them than I could have imagined.
Jed isn't what I expected; he's cocky and charming, but it's what's underneath that has cemented his place as my favorite Greene. He and Molly were a lot alike, and while their reasons for keeping their hearts guarded were different, the end result was the same: neither was willing to give anyone more than a night, unless it was with each other.
Jed and Molly's chemistry was palpable in the first pages, and it snowballed into its own tangible entity that pulsated through the air whenever they were in the same room. Everything seemed to happen for a reason, with Molly realizing her worth and Jed's life being turned upside down causing a domino effect, and it was abundantly clear they were meant to be.
Piper Rayne truly has a gift for weaving words; after only a few words, you're transported to a fictional setting with a fictional family that becomes a part of you in a way that makes you feel like a citizen of the small town and a member of the family, and it's absolutely true in the hours you're immersed in the pages.
I had to remove my glasses to wipe away tears because I felt such a strong connection to Jed, Molly, and Amelia that their pain overtook my emotions in ways I hadn't expected, and the same can be said for their happiness; every emotion they felt wriggled its way inside my soul. Their story is one that will stay with me.
My Sister’s Flirty Friend is “cancel real life” level of all-consuming, A ravishing blend of electrifying chemistry, a swoony single dad, a strong sassy heroine, rapt with witty banter, bursting with emotion, from butterflies to tears and everything in between, steam, a family that loves so fiercely it makes you feel a part of them, and my favorite duo of meddling grandmas.

With this series, I always get both versions and listen to the audiobook. The narrators always do such a great job and bring all the characters to life, especially Dori and Ethel.
This was a fun read. Jed and Molly had great chemistry. I enjoy the dialogue between all of the characters. It is funny, witty, and often ridiculous.
I really liked reading about how Jed transformed after he was presented with the shock of his life, and how he and Molly were able to build a more substantial relationship.
Molly also had some demons to deal with in this book. I liked that she was able to finally speak her mind and also have the conversation she need to have with her mom.
A sweet, sexy, romantic, and often funny book with a HEA, and an epilogue that is so tempting I have to read the next book.

Ich wusste schon bei ca. 20% wie das Buch ungefähr weitergehen wird.
Ich kann leider nichts/nicht viel mit Baby's und Kleinkinder anfangen und wenn diese dann mehr oder weniger im Mittelpunkt stehen .... naja. Es ist einfach nicht mein Thema.
Wobei ich sagen muss, dass das hier sogar noch ok und gut umgesetzt war.
Aber wegen den beiden Punkten nur 3 Sterne.

My Sister’s Flirty Friend is the fourth book in The Greene Family series. I have fallen in love with the small town of Sunrise Bay, Alaska, and all the quirky characters in the series. All the books in the series can be read as stand-alone but why not start at the beginning when you know you will want to read them all anyway? The Green family is large, boisterous, and unique. You cannot help but love them. This is Jed and Molly’s story, and it picks up where the story ends in My Vegas Groom.
When Jed Greene discovers he is Emilia’s father, a three-year-old, his life is turned upside down. He does not know how to be a father or how to connect with Emilia who has lost her mother. Molly has been part of the Greene family forever and Jed knows having a fling with her is a bad idea, but he can’t resist the temptation. Molly has fought her attraction to Jed forever and knows becoming involved with him will leave her broken-hearted. She has her own issues but still is there to support Jed as he adjusts to life as a father. I love how supportive she is, and her soft side comes out as she is working with Emilia.
This was a wonderful book, and I cannot wait for the next book in the series. The last scene leads us into Frasier’s story, and it will be interesting.
I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

What can I say about Jed? He was messed up by his dad, so becoming a dad himself was his worst fear. Molly was the perfect person to help him and his daughter navigate their new relationship, but she had demons of her own. The Greene family is such a fun one and this was another great book. This book had me both laughing and tearing up from emotion. I think Piper Rayne wrote another fantastic story and definitely recommend reading it.

Once again, Piper Rayne has knocked it out the park! I’m obsessed with the Greene family and Jed and Molly’s book was everything I thought it would be and more. Both of them were the unwilling victims of small town rumors and unwanted reputations. In this book, we get to unravel the layers and really get to know them and I loved it.
These two were like two peas in a pod even if they denied it at every turn. Watching commitment phobes fall in love is one of my favorite things and Piper Rayne seriously delivered with Jed and Molly. I just engulfed their story greedily. Watching Jed embrace fatherhood was so beautiful. Little Emilia was the cutest and sweetest thing. The bonds formed between her, Jed and Molly was so heartwarming. The emotions in this book was an unexpected hit to the feels. There was also the hysterical antics from our favorite grandmas, Ethel and Dori and their friends. A Greene book isn’t a Greene book without visits from some of the siblings and that’s always a treat.
Piper Rayne perfected the artful balance of emotional, sweet, steamy and fun in this unputdownable read. And boy oh boy do they know how to leave you desperate for more because that ending has me counting the days until the next Greene family installment.

Piper Rayne have once again penned a fabulous addition to their series. It’s full of uncertainty, fun, meddling grandmothers, and love.
We were gifted with a glimpse into this book during the Greene’s Summer Bash and I knew it would be amazing. I wasn’t wrong.
Jed’s story was a whole lot more than I bargained for.
Scars from his past kept Jed in his bachelor ways for a long time.
Scars from her past kept Molly from letting people in as well.
These two have been in each other’s orbit forever.
But there is a secret we don’t know that has kept them apart.
After finding out some life altering news, Jed makes a play.
Will it work out? Or will that secret keep them apart?
Well, you’ll have to read it to find out!
Need more convincing?
It’s fun, flirty, steamy, eye opening, and full of heartwarming moments.
There is hurt, uncertainty, and guilt.
Add a sweet little girl into the mix and it’s enough to make it absolutely adorable.
