A hacktivist and a cat café owner decode the friend zone in this romantic comedy from the author of Undercover Bromance.
Alexis Carlisle and her cat café, ToeBeans, have shot to fame after she came forward as a victim of a celebrity chef's sexual harassment. When a new customer approaches to confide in her, the last thing Alexis expects is for the woman to claim they're sisters. Unsure what to do, Alexis turns to the only man she trusts—her best friend, Noah Logan.
Computer genius Noah left his rebellious teenage hacker past behind to become a computer security expert. Now he only uses his old skills for the right cause. But Noah’s got a secret: He's madly in love with Alexis. When she asks for his help, he wonders if the timing will ever be right to confess his crush.
Noah's pals in The Bromance Book Club are more than willing to share their beloved "manuals" to help him go from bud to boyfriend. But he must decide if telling the truth is worth risking the best friendship he's ever had.

My Review:
Oh, it was so much fun to read these books! I loved the first two, and I couldn't wait to see how these other two couples could be helped by the guys reading romance books. They were just so great to read! But oh, do they delve into some dark topics, as well as emotional ones!
With his passion for romance novels, it was only a matter of time before Vlad took up the pen to write a novel the Bromance Book Club would swoon over.
Elena Konnikova has lived her entire adult life in the shadows. As the daughter of a Russian journalist who mysteriously disappeared after speaking out against government corruption, she escaped danger the only way she knew how. She agreed to marry her childhood friend, Vladimir, and move to the United States, where he is a professional hockey player in Nashville.
Vlad, aka The Russian, thought he could be content with his marriage of convenience. But after four years, it's become too difficult to continue in a one-sided relationship. He joined the Bromance Book Club to learn how to make his wife love him, but all he's learned is that he deserves more. He's ready to create his own sweeping romance--both on and off the page.
The Bros are unwilling to let Vlad forgo true love--and this time they're not operating solo. They join forces with Vlad's senior citizen neighbors, a group of meddling widows who call themselves The Loners. Just when things finally look promising, the danger from Elena's past life intrudes, and the book club will face their first-ever life-or-death grand gesture as they race to a happy ever after.
My Review:

Crazy Stupid Bromance deals with some emotional topics. They've both lost parents, and and they've both dealt with that differently. And then the dad that she didn't know who he was, turns out he desperately needs a kidney, and since they're related, she could be a donor. And on top of that, there's the want from both of them to go from friends to lovers, but the fear of losing this relationship.
The elephant in the room. Isn't it Bromantic? was published in 2021, was written before that, so before Russia attacked Ukraine. So this is a story about Russians, and the war is happening, and those two thing both exist, no matter how horrible the war is.
Vlad was just a teddy bear cinnamon roll of a guy. He, along with Mack, are the ones who have the least of the toxic masculinity that the book club helps them shed. I'm so glad that he got his story, he wasn't perfect, nobody's perfect, but I loved their story-and they had a lot of great communication!
Plus, he's writing a book, so that gave them a new way to talk about books, though their tips at times helped and hindered him, to work through his issues. I had a great time reading excerpts from his book-and the parallels between him and Elena, and Tony and Anna.
Loved reading these books, and I can't wait to continue the series!
