Sibling Goals

This was a fun start to the series. I wasn’t completely sold on the hero’s behavior at first because he came across as a little dismissive, but as the story developed, I understood him better. And once he fell, he fell hard. I loved seeing a curvy heroine get the sports superstar, and the cute epilogue was a great way to finish.

Final thoughts: One I’d happily reread when I’m in the mood for a quick, feel-good sports romance.

This one was a favorite contender for me. I loved the body positivity and especially appreciated how supportive the MMC was while the FMC dealt with her mother and learned to stand up for herself. The fake dating might have been fake in her mind, but he was never treating it that way. I also appreciated that the sibling conflict didn’t turn into chapters of unnecessary secrecy or angst.

Final thoughts: One of my favorites in the series. Give me a man who knows what he wants and supports his woman while she finds her own voice.

I really appreciated the representation of a plus-size ballerina, but this was my least favorite of the four. There was more misunderstanding and miscommunication than I wanted, especially in a series I’d been enjoying for its relatively easy, feel-good romances. I wanted to watch the characters grow together rather than get caught up in avoidable relationship angst.

Final thoughts: I liked the body-positive representation, but the relationship drama made this one less enjoyable for me.

This one brought me right back around. I loved the virgin MMC and the way the couple supported each other. Their relationship felt natural, even within the shorter length of the story. It was exactly the kind of romance I was hoping to find when I started the series.

Final thoughts: Another favorite, and a great reminder of why I enjoy these quick romances in the first place.
