Breaking Up with Barrett: The English Brothers #1 by Katy Regnery

4.0

So Sweet

With the first book in a series, solid groundwork must be laid for the remaining books to stand firmly on. This book did just that. The characters were nicely fleshed out and played big enough parts so that their personalities were revealed, prepping us for the other books.

Aside from that, it was also an incredibly sweet read. Barrett and Emily were practically made for each other. I love how he was so sure of himself and what he wanted. Unlike most romance novels where the guy spends most of the book learning how he feels about his love interest, Barrett knew from the moment he first saw Emily (I couldn't help but to "awww" at that point). I also love the fact that even though they weren't considered to be in the same class (financially speaking), he never let that stand in his way. (Insert "awww" here.) Oh! Let's not forget about the steamy bits! While I've read hotter, it was still steamy enough to make me salivate (just a little... no puddles were made lol).

So, if you're looking for a sweet and romantic read, this one's for you.
