SYNOPSIS
How do you date your best friend’s sister? Easy.
Step one: Pretend you want her to set you up with someone else. That will bring the two of you closer.
Step two: Go on date with lots of random women, proceed to get stupid drunk and talk about your best friend’s sister, thus gaining the courage to finally make a move.
Step three: Randomly show up at her apartment and confess your love. Women love that, right?
It all seemed so simple. A fool-proof three step process that will guarantee the love of you life to fall madly in love with you.
At least–that’s what I thought was going to happen. But my attempts to win over Julia Westin backfired in more ways than I can count. The thing about Julia? She’s smart–really smart–and her wicked gaze cuts through all the charm I’ve tried slinging her way. She’s not interested in games, my gifts, or my stories. She might want me too; but she’s not giving in that easy…

And just like that, I feel my heart leap out of my chest and right into Julia’s hands. She holds it; she has it all to herself. But I don’t think she realizes that mine beats because of her—that she has the potential to crush it more than anyone else in my life—and I hope she doesn’t throw it back at me. Ever.
THE SECRET TO DATING YOUR BEST FRIEND’s SISTER has got to be one of the longest titles for a book! I just love me a good romcom by one of my favorite authors, Meghan Quinn. Her humor has me rolling on the floor with a stomach ache from laughing so hard. This story had plenty of laughs, heartbreaking angst, and crazy good love!
Bram Scott is a book boyfriend who will make many a reader swoon. I found it impossible not to fall in love with his character. The lengths he goes to in order to win Julia’s heart are what make him one of the most loveable book boyfriends.
Julia, however, was an extremely frustrating character. It took me a very long time to warm up to her character. I get that her insecurity was a huge factor in why she was so closed off emotionally, but this woman is supposed to be highly intelligent and I didn’t get how she could be so blind to what was right in front of her the whole time. Her stubbornness had me wanting to throw my iPad against the wall a few times.
But Bram is a pretty amazing Hero and when things started to take off between them, my frustration started to diminish, however, if you are a true romance fan, then you know that the happy floating on a cloud times are usually temporary and something ultimately will come along to put the couple’s love for each other to the test. I was right back to disliking Julia again and I knew if she did not make some sort of grand gesture to prove her love for Bram, this was going to be the first time I didn’t love a Meghan Quinn book. Thankfully, Meghan knew what she had to do to make me happy!!
Here are my overall ratings:
Hero: 5+++++++
Heroine: 3
Plot: 4
Angst: 4.5
Steam: 5
Chemistry Between Hero & Heroine: 5
