What can I say about this except I adore the trope of falling for your best friend’s brother, and this was really no different.

Sebastian and his bestie have been sorta kind avoiding adulthood for several years now, just being academic nerds and getting various degrees here and there. Their vagabond existence comes to a temporary pause for the summer as they can’t resist a free room offered by Bella’s older brother Asa, a handsome rich contractor who’s newly divorced. What comes about is that Sebastian and Bella’s self imposed personal family of two broadly expands, and they both realize that maybe establishing some roots or reconnecting with loved ones is not such a bad thing after all. How long will Sebastian remain stubborn and deny his and Asa’s wants and needs?

This had a lot funny in it, a gentle giant, an age gap, and some very nice UST. Thankfully, there was no crazy angst that can be prominent in many of Lane’s works. Throw in an adorable 7 year old, the aforementioned fierce bestie, and this was nice and easy entertaining romance!
