Lia and Breaker met in college and bonded over all things nerdy. They have been besties for years, even getting apartments next to each other. Lia is now engaged and Breaker, her man of honor, accompanies her to all wedding appointments to help her deal with her awful MIL to be. One moments changes things and now Breaker needs to find a way to deal with these new feelings he is having.
We just talk about Breaker for a moment? He is by far the superior Cane brother. My GOD! He is a golden retriever - supportive, funny, caring. But then this whole other alpha side comes out ...! He is truly devoted to Lia, even before he realizes his feelings for her. He knows everything about her because he actually pays attention. He wants nothing more than for her to be happy and does everything he can to make that happen.
Lia values her friendship with Breaker more than anything, but she has only ever seen him as a friend. When she gets engaged she feels like something is holding her back from being happy and she can't figure out what it is. That is until she starts seeing another side of Breaker and what she is truly missing in her romantic relationship.
Lia and Breaker are just so perfect for each other. She is so worried that they will ruin their friendship, but Breaker is so I'm love with her that he will do anything to prove to her that they should be together. He worships her and treats her unlike any other man has. They have so much chemistry both emotionally and physically.
I love that Lia has been taken in by Kelsey, Myla, and Lottie. They help her open her eyes and see what she missing. They give her the female support and friendship that she has been craving.
I LOVE that we get to see so much of the other characters in this series. I love seeing how the 3 relationships have grown, especially seeing how much Huxley has changed and softened.
Tropes: friends to lovers, billionaire

Wow this book exceeded my expectations! I mean the sweet friendship, the tension, the pining, and the spice- this book really delivered. I wasn’t expecting the slow burn so the bangxiety was real with this was but so worth it. Because once the heat was turned up it was hot! I loved Breaker and Lia’s friendship throughout but especially loved seeing their relationship evolve romantically in the second half of the book. So happy there was no 3rd act breakup for this story. I absolutely recommend this book, it’s the perfect mix of sweet and spicy for a friends to lovers book!
