The Bromance Book Club is both funny and emotional! Touted as a romantic comedy I wasn’t expecting the heaviness this novel dealt with, but I still ended up liking it!
Rating: ★★★★
​Release Date: November 5, 2019
Genre: Second Chance Romantic Comedy. 

Series: Bromance Book Club #1
Pages: 350 pages
Format: Paperback. Source: Purchased.
The first rule of book club: You don't talk about book club.

Nashville Legends second baseman Gavin Scott's marriage is in major league trouble. He’s recently discovered a humiliating secret: his wife Thea has always faked the Big O. When he loses his cool at the revelation, it’s the final straw on their already strained relationship. Thea asks for a divorce, and Gavin realizes he’s let his pride and fear get the better of him. 

Welcome to the Bromance Book Club.
Distraught and desperate, Gavin finds help from an unlikely source: a secret romance book club made up of Nashville's top alpha men. With the help of their current read, a steamy Regency titled Courting the Countess, the guys coach Gavin on saving his marriage. But it'll take a lot more than flowery words and grand gestures for this hapless Romeo to find his inner hero and win back the trust of his wife.

READ MY BOOK REVIEW

𝗥𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗪 𝗦𝗡𝗔𝗣𝗦𝗛𝗢𝗧: The Bromance Book Club is both funny and emotional! Touted as a romantic comedy I wasn’t expecting the heaviness this novel dealt with, but I still ended up liking it!

When you look at the cover the first things many readers assume is that this is just another 𝗥𝗢𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗖 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗘𝗗𝗬. And while that may be true in some respects (the secondary characters for example had me laughing out loud) this book dealt with some serious issues like 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗧𝗔𝗟 𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗙𝗘 and potential divorce. One would think a romcom can’t handle these subjects by Lyssa Kay Adams proved that it can be done because this book was a really great read! There were a few things that bothered me though and I’ll explain those below.

I liked Gavin A LOT. He’s a down to earth character and his growth through the book was wonderful to see. I especially loved how I FELT like he wanted to change for the better and did do. Unfortunately, I didn’t LOVE Thea. I found her to be a little too abrasive, and her treatment of Gavin to be unjustified. I get that she has a backstory that makes her attitude make sense to the reader, but I never felt like she truly redeemed herself. It was like one minute she’s a nasty witch and the next she’s sweet and adorably in love. It gave me whiplash!

Other than that, I found this to be a gem of a read and I loo forward to reading the rest of the books in the series. I hope they get funnier as they go because I enjoyed the humor that we saw in this one.

𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗙𝗘𝗖𝗧 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗙𝗔𝗡𝗦 𝗢𝗙:
• Romantic Comedies
• Book with struggling MCs (especially within a marriage)
• Authors like Sarah Hogle, Talia Hibbert, and Sally Thorne

𝗠𝗬 𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (3.5 to be exact)
𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗧: 🔥 🔥 🔥 | it took a while to get there

THE SERIES

** While each book can standalone, I personally recommend reading the series in order so that you don't find any spoilers from couples in previous novels.
