Cocktails and Books received this book for free from Wildfire Marketing in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.

In My Besties Ex, the duo behind Piper Rayne take a secondary character, Blanca, from one series and introduces us to a whole new group.

I had mixed feelings going into this one and left the book feeling the same way, but for slightly different reasons. I liked Blanca, Ethan, and most of the secondary cast, but found myself a bit conflicted with pieces of the story line.

My biggest conflict had to do with Blanca and the β€œbestie.” The amount of control she gave this childhood friend seemed out of character for the Blanca that continued to pop up in the White Collar Brothers books. It seemed almost as if Blanca became a passenger in her own life/crossroads experience.

Even with the pieces that seemed out of character for Blanca (for me anyway) this was a fun and entertaining read. My Bestie’s Ex is also a great introduction to a new series and the author duo did an excellent job of balancing the world building needed with telling us Ethan and Blanca’s story. I am very curious to see what comes next for the Rooftop Crew.

I can’t borrow him.

He’s not a sweater or a skirt.

 

He’s not even her favorite dressβ€”the lucky one she wears on first dates. The one she probably wore on her first date with him.

 

In my defense, I didn’t know who he was. To me, he was a cool, calm, confident stranger. He was perfection for the entire hour and a half train ride while the concrete jungle turned into a rolling green landscape.

 

To an outsider, we probably appeared more friends than hopeful lovers. But my blush came quickly, and his dimples indented with every smile. We definitely shared a spark of what could be.

 

Too bad I didn’t know who he was before I fell for him, because he can’t be mine.
