Lia's character had a great transformation in this book and as always I love character growth. She went from being a passive person to taking what she wants and it was so exciting to see, especially since Breaker was her #1 fan. The incorporation of JP, Kelsey, Huxley, Lottie, Myla, and Ryot was just the icing on the cake for me. I'm excited to see who the next couple will be in the future from this world. h has been dating a guy for 1’5-2 years. Three weeks before her parents died in a car accident. Now she is engaged with OM. One thing I truly adored was how much Beaker was convinced that he and Lia were just friends, until the moment he realized they weren't just friends. He was used to his brothers always teasing him about secretly being in love with her, but he genuinely only saw her platonically until THAT moment (which was wonderfully written) and then suddenly it was game on. He did everything in his power to show Lia that she deserved so much more than what she was settling herself with, and just proved to her that he was the one for her. Caught Looking” is the first novel in the “Hot-Lanta” series, and was released in the year 2013. Things have been heating up in Atlanta, or in Jane’s celibate life of two years. On the second anniversary of her nasty split from her ex, her friends Molly (a class A potty mouth) and Albert (an expert flamboyant dresser) decide that it is high time Jane drops her conservative persona, just let loose and begin having fun again. The only thing that annoyed me in this book and is the cause why I can’t give it a full on 5 star rating, is Brian. He was there for toooooooo long and my girl Lia should’ve broke up with him a LOOOOONG time ago!! It was just so frustrating seeing her tolerate his annoying behaviour for 60% of the book! Bro did not deserve that big amount of time in the book.
Lia (Ophelia) and Breaker (both about 30 ish) have been best friends since they were in college (junior year) when Lia joined the SSS club (Secret Scrabble Society). They hit it off right away, and for ten years, these two have bonded over so many things- board games, movies, shows, life… Amazing. I am absolutely in love with this book. It was so funny and I am a huge fan of friends to lovers so this was done so well. I love when the characters continuously tease each other. They play fight and always joke around with one another and it’s the best thing ever. The fact that they are best friends turned lovers was just so so fun to see. Also it’s “he falls first” and oh my god is it amazing.Dear Meghan Quinn I had things to do like work, talk to people owww and sleep. 😴 Did I do any of the things awww no. What I did do is stay up til four in the morning to finish this book 📖 There is a whole community out there who loves love, who loves romance, and I’m one of them. It’s a world I love living in, where there are happily ever afters, the odd girl gets the good looking guy, and where chivalry isn’t lost. I know it can’t all be true, that life isn’t as grand as some novels make it out to be, but I still love every single story because it’s an escape from reality, a moment in time where you can daydream of the impossible, where there is a chance of watching true love unfold right in front of you.” Lia, is so damn needy and insecure, I could barely get through this book. Also, her behavior while engaged to another dude wasn't cute. Sleeping in your guy best friends' bed in nothing but a t-shirt, asking him to spoon you, but “it's ok bc you are just friends.” No babe, that's foul AF. And there was some other really shady stuff that I just couldn't buy. Breaker was SO amazing. I never thought I would love him more than I loved JP, but the nerd inside Breaker makes my heart soar. He was so relatable, yet he also had such range as a character. Breaker is a powerful billionaire at first glance and a nerd at heart—all accompanied by a dirty side.
Because it was not all bad. There were funny moments, parts of their friendship were cute (when they weren’t being dunderheads), Breaker’s dirty talk was on point, and the sex scenes were pretty hot, technically. Pity I couldn’t feel an ounce of tension between them. Even the forbidden aspect was lost because there’s really no edge to them. I liked his dynamic with the brothers and their wives, and I love a Bromance, but after a point even that got excessive and awkward. A lot of it was just awkward. Her initiation into the wives’ group felt totally forced and out of the blue. The cheesiness of it all has likely given me lactose intolerance. And I appreciate well done cheese usually. Lia and Breaker met in college through the SSS = Secret Scrabble Society and instantly knew they were kindred spirits. Although Breaker would have loved to ask Lia out, she asked him to be his friend. Billionaire Breaker Cane is a down to earth awesome guy who realizes he has feelings for his bestie, Lia, of 10 years, when she becomes engaged to her boyfriend. Just finished the not so meet cute series. Patiently waiting for a long time coming I’m so excited. I hope she writes something for banner i Definitely want to see what happens with Nichole, Kenzie and Banner for sure.

No, unless your 11/12 year old swears a lot and is sexually active. I’d say these are for adults only. Reply
All across the USA, people are showing up dead. The deaths don't appear to be connected in any way until one particular death occurs and gets the Secretary of Defense's attention. He arranges for a task force to investigate. What I also loved about this book is seeing the other couples again and seeing how happy and content they are with one another. It was so sweet seeing them all become a big, happy family at the end. It really summed up this series and story well!! We spent 60% of the book dealing with things that should have been resolved in the first 20-30% of the book. Lia spends more than enough time being a doormat to her fiancé and his overbearing (overbeaving lol) mother. Filled to the brim with pop culture references and a funny prose, A Long Time Coming was my first Mwghan Quinn book, but it definitely won't be the last.There will be a third book in the Bourbon Series and for sure two spin offs, possibly three. So there is so much more to come for the charac …more Hi Monika! Lia and Breaker meet in college at a top secret Scrabble society and instantly became best friends. Cue ten years later, where they live next door to each other and Lia is newly engaged. Breaker offers to be her man in waiting, and in the midst of all the wedding madness, he realises he is completely and utterly in love with his best friend.

I LOOOOOVE the pregnancy trope and I don't read nearly enough of it, so if you're looking for your next pregnancy trope book, THIS IS ITTTT. The internal monologue in Breaker’s head had me swooning so much I almost melted. And the fact that this made me think of the movie “made of honor” made me happy. Sometimes it takes your best friend planning her wedding to realize you are deeply, unequivocally in love with her!! Which brings me to the sheer stupidity of their denial that they were into each other. I know this can be a pitfall of friends to lovers romance but this was another level. They’re codependent to an unhealthy amount, they spend so much time together their partners should absolutely take exception to it, everyone in their life is even telling them they’re into each other, but these two idiots are the last ones to get there, and Ms Smartypants Lia even slower at that. And of course he realizes it in a big dress moment. Maybe some 90s cliches do need to retire. The inevitability of it all was a big yawn. We know she doesn’t want to go through with the wedding, why prolong the torture? I know they had to find a way to keep them apart for plot, but at what cost? The reader’s sanity? the Beave aka future MIL. She pissssssed me off 🤬. I’m so glad Breaker told her off and that Lia did too… sorry not sorry your veil got ruined 😬😅 whoops I finished the billionaire series and the Brentwood boys. Is there a book with Penn’s story? One with Banner’s story? I’ve googled but yet to find a list of the stories with the lead characters, someone please make one!!!
