Review: The Virgin Rule Book

The Virgin Rule Book by Lauren Blakely

Blurb: 

A sexy, brother's best friend sports romance from # 1 New York Times bestseller Lauren Blakely! Let me make a few things clear. I didn’t go to the wedding intending to dance with the best man, to dare him to show me a very sexy pic on his phone, or to accidentally kiss him in the hotel elevator after the reception ended. But you know how it goes. Things just happen at weddings... The next day, Crosby and I agree to put all those shenanigans behind us. The fun-loving, stupidly gorgeous, all-star baseball player might be my brother’s best friend, but he’s my friend too and has been for years, so it’s easy to move on, especially because I have a high-profile business to run. But since he’s newly single and I’m always single, it turns out we both desperately need plus ones. We agree to “publicly date” over the next two weeks of galas, parties and events before his baseball season begins. The only trouble is the more time I spend with Crosby, the more I keep imagining how much I want him to take my V-card. And when I broach the possibility with Crosby, his answer surprises the hell out of me.  

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
My review:

The Virgin Rule Book is the first book in the Rules of Love series.  It was had a strong-minded and sassy heroine and a superstitious hero with lucky socks.  It was light, easy to read, and fast-paced.  It combined brother’s best friend with the childhood friends to lovers trope.  The characters were delightful, and I love how Crosby was not intimidated by Nadia’s self-confidence or money.  He saw her for who she really was.  They were best friends who valued each other and their friendship.  They were afraid a romantic relationship would ruin their friendship but all it did was give them a good foundation for their love to grow on.  I loved meeting all the side characters and hope to see them again in future books.

I received an ARC and am willingly leaving a review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
