The Worst Kept Secret is a fun, fast, and steamy best friend’s dad romance. Q.B. Tyler’s books are always so fun. I really liked Avery because she was sassy + such a tease. She was going to get what she wanted no matter what. Just delightful. Theo is obviously a the swoon worthy, single dad, next door that romance lovers eat up. And a former NFL star!?! I was hooked from that first chapter.
Woo boy!!! The audio!!! It was freaking hot to say the least 🥵 There was a hint of duet narration in a couple moments throughout the book that made it feel very lively. Definitely recommend going the audio route when it comes out for a fun, funky and fresh time!!
Thank you to Forever and Always PR and Q.B. Tyler for providing me with an ALC in exchange for my honest thoughts <3

I enjoyed this book, but didn’t love.
Where was the tension? Having the characters have spicy moments in chapter 1 was an interesting choose.
This book was very spicy. If you want smut, this is the book for you. Sadly, it wasn’t my favourite. I like a bit of a slow burn, and this was not that.
Age gap romances are just not my cup of tea. How Theo was willing to sacrifice his relationship with his son just for Avery was wild for me.

Ohhhh emmm geee! This book popped into my insta feed yesterday, I saw it, I downloaded it, read it, and finished it all in a span of less than a day! 🥵🌶️❤️
I couldn’t put it down, I need to know if Avery and Theo would get caught, would her best friend hate her, would it last?
I love that there really was no 3rd act break up miscommunication trope (I feel like that would have ruined this book) it was more of a sad let’s hit pause and feel out the ramifications of all that has happed while Avery and Theo try to do damage control with Lucas who happens to be Avery’s best friend and Theos son.
