Every book in this series so far has been beyond amazing, and Eli’s story is just as great. I loved everything about this book I loved Marlee and her personality, attitude, strength, and heart. She was a caring girl who did come from money but she never really let that define her and she loved her friends deeply. This group of friends that Marlee had included Eli’s sister Sadie and they all had me laughing so hard and poor Eli was always there to take care of them and make sure they didn’t lend up in trouble. As usual a trip to Vegas doesn’t actually stay in Vegas so this is the start of things for Eli and Marlee. Eli was such a beautiful person inside and out he helped everyone around him, he would give anyone the shirt off his back I’d they needed it yet he pushed people away in fear of having to take care of them and he didn't realize he was already doing that because he cared about his family and friends. These two together were insanely perfect because they balanced each other, Marlee being outgoing and Eli being kind of closed up. I also loved how we get to see the other characters from the previous books and my favorite as always is when the guys get together and hang up on the Hero at the time to show them they are being an idiot and need to get their head out of the sand ( )

Setting: Denver, Colorado
Tag(s): Romance, Contemporary
Content Rating: R
POV: Third Person
Smexy Level: Hot
Favorite Quote(s):
― “Do you know how scary it is to be the one who loves you more?”
Overall Opinion:
A good old best friend older brother trope which oddly enough I'm not the biggest fan of that was actually sorta kinda cute. From the get-go, your able to see the strong connection between Marlee and Eli, and how their relationship developed throughout the pages. Sure this didn't wow me like "Blow Me Away" but it was still entertaining to say the least. In conclusion, this was a cute romance filled with likable characters, some funny moments and old faces of whom we previously read and loved.

This book was exactly what I needed to get out of the dry spell I had been having lately. It was flirty, fun, and heartfelt. I just recently discovered this author and have loved everything that I have read so far. This author has a knack for keeping the balance between funny and also sweet. The characters are always perfect. Not just for each other but just perfect in a normal sense. They have insecurities and fears like real everyday people do.

Has the accidental marriage in Vegas been done time and time again? Yes. Do they often blend in with each other? Yes. However, this one stuck with me. There was something about the characters have known each other all their lives and already having that established bond that helped. It made it more real and less surprising to have them believe in each other the way that they did. I loved that Eli was able to Marlee find her niche in life and that she was able to break him out of his shell.

Lots of laughs again with Babushka making an appearance (that lady really is a hoot) and a chance to see that true love prevails. I highly recommend this author and all of her books. She is one of my favorite discoveries in 2019. I cannot wait to see what is next in this series of standalones. ( )
