About this listen
This is a kisses only, sweet romance.
My brother’s best friend shattered my heart when he left to chase a dream of shoulder pads and glory. Now he’s back, but even worse, so is my crush.
I’m not in love with Mason Sanderson anymore, so I keep telling myself.
It doesn’t matter that he’s the face of every hero in any romance novel I’ve ever read.
My new next-door neighbor is not the man of my dreams.
The flutters and butterflies when I see him around don’t mean anything.
As his best friend’s little sister, I’m the perfect choice when he needs a date for his former team’s fundraising event.
No drama, no expectations–off limits.
Then his ex shows up.
I’ve waited a lifetime for him to ask me out, but it’s not real. I’m in the friend zone.
Anyone know how to keep a heart intact when heartbreak is inevitable?
This standalone is a part of the Sweet Spring Kisses Series and is a clean, kisses only, brother’s best friend, close proximity, friends to lovers, opposites attract, slow burn, and happily ever after. Let yourself get swept up with Mason and Emily as they realize that they have always been each other’s true love. I hope you fall in love with the two of them and are left wanting more!

Story
If I was to dream up the perfect man even my wildest imagination would have fallen short compared to Cole Nichols. Tall, broad shoulders, smile to die for and dreamy green eyes that held a mischievous glint. Add in a heart of gold, always helping others in need. We had planned out every detail of our lives together…including his dream of becoming a major league pitcher. So when my gran got sick and I needed to take care of her, I gave him the push he needed, breaking my heart, and his, in the process.

I just married the hockey league’s hottest player. Only catch? He has no idea. I never meant to hitch Ken Edwards. OK. I totally did. I just wasn’t planning on him finding out. It was a desperate move to save my restaurant, but now he’s onto me and refusing to play along. Between his scorching looks and my traitorous hormones, keeping things strictly business is like trying to diet in a chocolate factory.

Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Outside, a howling blizzard. Inside, a crackling fire. Suddenly, being snowbound with the man she never expected to see again might not be such a bad way to spend a winter’s night.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

sweet and clean
This was a sweet romance. I'm not normally one for clean, closed door (i like the spice) but this was pretty good. The narration was well done.

My crush on my brother's best friend
This is a clean romance between Emily and Mason, who is her brother's best friend. The characters are well written, and I was cheering for them to get together. Emily has been in love with Mason most of her life, but he never noticed her. Now he asks her to be his date to a charity event and suddenly his eyes are opened to seeing her in a whole new way. I recommend this book to anyone who loves a good romance story.

Sweet Small Town Romance
This is the first book in the Sweet Spring Kisses Series, a small town romance. Mason and Emily's story is sweet, fun, and engaging. I liked the slow burn romance, and the banter. This is a sweet brother's best friend romance. Lexi Balter and Zach Young's duet narration is great. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Clean Standalone Rom-Com Interconnected Series HEA
Emily has had a crush on her big brother's best friend for years. Why did he have to move back home and right next door? Mason has been interested in his best friend's little sister for years but honored the "bro code". Now that they are living next door to each other and adults it's getting harder. When his former team hosts a charity in their hometown he needs a date. Can they keep it as just friends? What does it take to get them to admit their true feelings?.
I loved this as an ebook. Listening to it with the dual narrators made it better. Well worth the time to repeat the story.

finding their HEA
I LOVE it when a book is read from the POV of both main characters. The reading is seamless so you almost feel like you are watching a movie versus listening to a book. Emily’s character comes to life as you hear her thoughts and feelings about Mason. Mason can be a bit thick headed in his thought process, making some questionable choices on his quest to win Emily.

Very Trope-y Genre Romance, But Still Enjoyable
Even though this is a very trope-y contemporary romance, I still enjoyed the story, particularly the setting, secondary characters, and the heroine. The author puts the main trope right there in the book title. The heroine is a super sweet young lady who cares about all those in her close circle and her small town. Her little bookshop sounds adorable, and I wish I could visit it! She's got a hold-no-prisoners best friend, always good in a romance, who gets a little prickly with just about everybody, even the heroine at times! (And it looks like she will be the heroine in the next book of the series.) The title is perhaps a little inaccurate, as the heroine has had a thing for her brother's best friend since they were in high school, which was some time ago. He's only just returning to their hometown. He left to pursue a pro football career but is returning after being injured, his pro career now in the past. He did well enough that money isn't a concern; he is a first responder who does so because it gives him purpose, even if he doesn't need the money (and actually donates it to charity). The book centers around a big multi-day, multi-venue gala that was initially going to take place in New York, but the hero, at the suggestion of the heroine, brings it to their small town instead, boosting the local economy and doing something different from the standard fundraising affair.
As always in a “brother's best friend” trope romance, one main stumbling block for the hero is getting past what he thinks will be resistance from the brother/friend. Does he want to risk his longtime friendship with his friend to pursue the woman of his dreams? Is it truly a risk? (Just talk to the guy; don't continue to beat yourself up over a possible non-issue!) The hero runs hot and cold toward the heroine for the entire book, certainly giving the heroine mixed signals about what he's thinking, feeling, and actually desires. He was so wishy-washy (perhaps too much?) that I could certainly empathize with the heroine’s frustrations. And as often happens in romance, the hero is just plain stupid about his ex!
So, yes, even from this brief review, you can tell this is full of all kinds of genre romance tropes and other well-worn romance pathways. But I so liked the heroine (and the pampering and girly stuff the hero helped her indulge in!) and the small town that I enjoyed listening to this book.
