A fun sweet read! Highly recommend.

Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for my ARC.

This was a short but fun frenemies-to-lovers and best friend’s brother story. It was fastpaced, well written, and easy to read. The main characters had chemistry that sizzled and banter that was full of snark. My attention was caught from the beginning.
This was a new author for me so I’m glad I had the chance to discover this author. I look forward to future releases from her.

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Suddenly homeless and jobless, Harper jumps at the chance to take a job in Chicago that comes with housing and put her in the same city her two best friends from college. The job happens to be working for one of her best friends’ brother, Spencer, with whom she’s always had a love-hate relationship. Sparks fly whenever they are together, but this time they turn into a romance.

I love the witty banter between Harper and Spencer in Ask Me Nicely. Their chemistry steams off the page. Overall, I enjoyed reading this charming romance.

Complementary copy given for honest review and opinion. Copy provided by NetGalley.
I was hooked by this book after just a couple of pages. I love the personalities of the characters. It is as if everyone else could see this love match before it happened. Definitely reading more by Dania Voss soon!

Successful Chicago real estate developer Spencer D’Angelo will do anything for his family. Well, almost anything. When it comes to his younger sister's best friend, curvy blonde bombshell Harper Mitchell, all bets are off. Spencer is inexplicably drawn to Harper, but he’s never trusted her. When I started reading I couldn't put it down. Dania Voss is magnifysent and amazing writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book.Can't wait for the next

The man Harper’s been sparring with all these years is the same man who ignites passion in her soul but when he discovers her dark secret, will he leave her in disgrace? Harper’s learned to be wary of people she lets in, especially when it comes to love. When the Feds shut down the real estate office she works in, she turns to the only family she can trust. Her best friend insists she move to Chicago and start fresh. Harper agrees but isn’t convinced it’s a good idea. She and her bestie’s brother, Spencer, have butted heads over the years but that hasn’t stopped her attraction to him. What happens when they’re in the same city, same neighborhood, same home? The chemistry between her and Spence threatens to overtake reason, but Harper can’t deny her attraction anymore. As they explore their newly formed relationship, Harper’s past threatens everything she holds dear. Sharing her dark secret with Spence freaks her out because it would crush her soul if he didn’t believe her. Love is risky but for Harper, she can’t resist when Spence asks her nicely.

Ask Me Nicely is a sizzling frenemy to lovers romance with a twist I read in one sitting. Seriously, once I started reading, I couldn’t stop. In a mash-up of tropes, Dania Voss takes the reader on a scorching ride of passion, confined living quarters, and shadowy enigmas. I connected with Harper right away and my heart continued to go out to her time and again. She’s been through a lot of strife throughout her life, including assault, suicide, and more. Spencer is the typical Alpha male, and his protective nature is exactly what Harper needs. The sexual tension between these two had me ripping through the pages to see what would happen next. I thoroughly enjoyed their journey together. The supporting cast, especially Spencer’s mum, added depth, humor, and perspective to the plot. The plot itself moves at a terrific pace with plenty of steamy heat. The suspense of Harper’s past adds intrigue and just the right number of gasping moments. Dania Voss is a masterful writer when it comes to steamy romance. She creates unputdownable characters who deal with all that life throws at them. Please note there are quite a bit of sexy times in this story. I personally loved each sexy time due to the brilliant descriptive narration. There are triggers warnings in the blurb so please be aware if you are sensitive to those triggers. If you’re a romance reader, you’ll want to read Ask Me Nicely. If steamy romance is your reading jam, you’ll adore Ask Me Nicely. One of the best steamy romances I’ve read in a long time, Ask Me Nicely needs to be read by the masses. Highly recommend!

My Rating: 5+ stars

Cute love story that reads like a Lifetime movie...girl running away from her traumatic past and finds the man of her dreams who was also from her past, and their instant connection and chemistry ignites right away. Even though it's a little predictable, it's definitely enjoyable!
