About this ebook

Lynn Dare has returned to the small town of Cape Kismet for a new ex's brother, roommate romantic comedy that's perfect for fans of Meghan Quinn, Curtis Sittenfeld, and Penny Reid.

Welcome to Cape Kismet, where the neighbors are nosy, the bookstores offer an escape, and epic romances abound.

A hot brother? Try two.

Dating the same person for more than a decade has its pitfalls. Like being dumped out of the blue and realizing you have nowhere to go, no one else to rely on.

Yep, I Kennedy Davis was a fool. It wasn’t until Harley said he wanted to chase a big love that I realized what we had wasn’t it.

Sleeping in my car outside my favorite bookstore is what I always wanted to do. Really. We’ll call it “camping”.

When Hadden finds me “camping”, he offers me a guest room, no strings attached. But there are always strings.

Because he’s my ex-boyfriend’s older brother.

An older brother I once thought I’d loved.

Yeah, this will end well.

Did I mention he’s a cop who looks great in uniform? It’s only a matter of time before I smash the cardinal rules of breakups.

Don’t crush on your ex’s brother.

And definitely don’t fall in love with him.

Oops.

The Perfect Boyfriend is book two in the Perfect Man small town romantic comedy series. Dive in for plenty of swoons, forced proximity shenanigans, lots of laughs, and a guaranteed happy ending.

Ratings and reviews

Easily read this in a few days! Once I started reading I didn’t want to put this book down. The Perfect Boyfriend is the second in a new series by two authors. I honestly liked this book better than the first one. Kennedy is such a down to earth girl that has been living her life with the same guy for 11 years. Unfortunately this book starts out with her being dumped and having no where to go. Turns out she’s been dating Harley which is Hadden’s brother; who we met in the first book. I definitely liked Hadden more than Harley and this book made me like Hadden even more. He was a pretty cool guy who helped out friends and took in Kennedy when she had nowhere else to go. I felt the chemistry between Hadden and Kennedy way more and thought that Harley was more like a brother to her. I can’t believe they stayed together for 11 years but at the same time it makes sense. Things could have ended barely and almost did but thankfully everyone decided to stop fighting and talk things out. I thought the ending was great and loved the Christmas gifts the brothers got Kennedy. I’m excited to see how things go in the third book between Harley and Cecilia; plus how close Harley is living to Hadden, things could get interesting.

This is a fantastic contemporary romantic comedy! I loved it! It is sweet, emotional, and funny... with a touch of steam.. Really heartwarming!. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
