Charlotte is down on her luck and goes to stay with her brother and his roommates. However, it’s just his roommates and teammates but he doesn’t live there. Charlotte begs for a place to stay but for the guys not to tell her brother until she has a plan!

As they start to spend time together, there is definitely some tension! Mateo and Roman are best friends but begin to feel attraction for each other and Charlotte. Jace and Charlotte had a moment many years ago but now he can’t stand her. When they all start to become exclusive they have to decide what to do about their best friend and her brother!

Read this if you enjoyed Pucking Around!

Things I loved: 
- Curvy FMC - I always love to see positive positive representation of a curvy/plus size female body
- Sweet bi-awakening
- MMFM - love when the boyfriends are boyfriends

Things that left me wanting: 
- Character development - for a story that’s 400 pages, I would’ve expected more background on the characters and how they got to where they are. I really didn’t feel a connection to any of them. It felt like the history was glazed over. I do attribute some of the length to the four POV’s though
- Story line - this is a brother’s best friends, trope, but the reasoning for a lot of the “forbidden” aspect and how they start their escapades seemed absurd in a way that felt unrealistic for adults in their late 20s. All of the best friends have known the sister for an extended period of time and all of a sudden their view of her switches to lust and then instantaneously to love which just felt forced to me. This part may need to be taken with a grain of salt because insta-love is one of my least favorite tropes. If that’s for you, I think you would enjoy this much more than I did.
