“OH. MY. GOD. This book. I can't even begin to describe it.

This book. I can't even begin to describe it. Lizzie and Spencer were explosive and hot and sweet and everything else you could possibly want in a romance novel rolled into one.” - Carmen, Goodreads Picture this:  You pack your bags. Move to Paris. Fall in love. A dream, right?  Wrong. Especially when you find out your Mr. Right is actually married. With kids. Don't even mention the white picket fence.  Heartbroken in the City of Love, the last person Elizabeth Hastings expects to lend her a shoulder to cry on is her brother's best friend…   Spencer Tate is opening up his first gym in London when a frantic call from his best friend sends him to Paris to check on Sebastian's baby sister.  If he's lucky he can stop in for a minute and be back in London the next day. Easy peasy. Except the dorky bookworm he remembers is now all grown up, with dangerous curves, lips just made for kissing and eyes he could get lost in… Spencer. Is. Screwed. You'll love this steamy, brother's best friend romance because who doesn't enjoy croissants, sexy gym junkies and making out in front of the Eiffel Tower? ★★★★★ REVIEWS ★★★★★ “Everyone needs a little bit of Spencer in their life!” - Melody, Goodreads  “This brother's best friend romance had me smiling and swooning, and I loved it!” - Becca, Goodreads “OH.
