Review: It’s been no secret that I have been anxiously awaiting Archer Holland’s book since we met him way back in the Campus Wallflower series and to say Rebecca brought her A game and then some in 𝙲𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚋𝚊𝚌𝚔 would be an understatement! Archer Holland devastated my heart in the best ways. His story was one of unequivocal acceptance, love and finding family in the least likely circumstances. I adored how Rebecca brought his story to life and appreciated how cognizant she was in writing a story where the MMC was not only deaf but also a professional athlete. 

 

Archer and Sabrina were two magnets that had to learn how to accept the pull between them and what better way to force the forbidden ‘brother’s best friend’ and ‘best friend’s sister’ trope then to have them become unwilling roommates. The tension this added to the book had me unable to put this book down but also had me swooning over ALL the SMALL THINGS Archer does for Sabrina while slowly accepting her into his circle. Archer Holland truly was THE book boyfriend so far in this series but I have a suspicion that Flynn is going to blow my mind as well. 

 

Sabrina Whitlock was a layered MFC who surprised me at every turn. I quickly came to love her and was excited to see her grow close to Archer. Her 100% acceptance and willingness to sign and speak in ways that allowed him to understand her captured my heart and there were so many moments in this book where her readiness to support Archer and bring him above his disability just unmoored me. Rebecca truly did phenomenal with the way she tackled this part of Archer and Sabrina’s relationship. 

 

𝙲𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚋𝚊𝚌𝚔 was everything I expected it to be and more and I wish we were getting more of this couple! Sabrina and Archer are a tough act to follow but I am excited to see baby Holland get his time in the light and can’t wait to see the snippets of each Holland brother in Flynn’s story coming up next! Hats off to you Rebecca for capturing one of the my favorite romance reads in a while! 

 

Rating: 100+; 𝙲𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚋𝚊𝚌𝚔 was a binge worthy read and Archer Holland was worth the wait and MORE! 

 

Thank you Rebecca for the eARC!
