When travel blogger Wynter Barrington’s wealthy, disapproving family cuts her off, she finds comfort in a passionate chance encounter with Riley Davis, her best friend's brother. And when they meet again months later, they begin a sizzling affair. Wynter knows Riley doesn’t do love and marriage, but her youthful crush is feeling more and more like a real relationship. If she’s not careful, Wynter may put more than her relationship with her best friend on the line. Can she survive falling in love with the one man she was never supposed to touch?
I really liked this sweet romance. The characters were well described and likeable. I loved the peek into their lives and their desires. But I wanted more in the story, I felt that more could've been written. I want to read the rest of the series to find out what happened next. This review is my unbiased opinion. Thanks to NetGalley and Harlequin for this advanced reader's copy.

Her Best friend's Brother is a great book. It deals with family dynamics as well as finding what really makes you happy and pursuing it. I highly recommend this book.

This the 1st book in Yahrah St. John’s new series “Six Gems”. As usual Yahrah does an awesome job with her characters and the plots are old so good. Wynter is travel blogger and her family is wealthy. Wynter returns home to attend her aunt’s funeral. Wynter is at her parent’s home when she is informed that she will be cutoff if she does get herself together and get a real job. Riley is a successful lawyer and has landed a job with a new firm. Wynter has had a crush on Riley her friend’s brother for some time. Wynter knows that Riley is a known playboy and is not commitment material; but that does not stop her from wanting him. Wynter is going thru some tiring times when her aunt leaves her everything in her will along with her six gems friends receiving a substantial amount of money to start their business ventures. Her mom fights her tooth and nail and holds up Wynter and her six gems from receiving anything from the will. Riley and Wynter have a sizzling hot night together. The two are very much attracted to each other and can’t seem to forget about their sizzling hot night together. Waiting patiently for the next book in this series.

Will Wynter convince her mom to stop the proceedings and left her have what her aunt left for her, can Wynter convince Riley that the two of them are perfect for each other, is there an HEA in store for Wynter and Riley?

I received an ARC via NetGalley and HARLEQUIN - Romance (U.S. & Canada), Harlequin Desire and I am leaving my review voluntarily.

Wynter knows that Riley, her best friend's brother, is a player. That doesn't stop her from entering into an affair with him. She's not looking for something permanent, any more than he is. But what happens when she falls in love?

The relationship between Wynter and Riley is deeply emotional. There's also a subplot involving her family, where they challenge her inheritance from her aunt's will. This subplot is introduced first, with the romance plot being a little slow to start. But once the romance gets underway, it's engaging and passionate.

Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.

Wynter and Riley were cute. Wynter had a crush on him when she was younger and when she sees him again, she realizes that it is still there. Riley sees her and realizes that she has grown into quite the woman, one he no longer needs to avoid because of the age difference. They do the whole "it's only one time" thing and of course that doesn't work. Riley doesn't believe in love and Wynter thinks she'll be fine with a fling.

We all know where this is going.

There was also the backdrop of the sudden loss of her aunt and having to deal with her family in the aftermath. That part of the storyline was handled pretty well.

This book was really good. I can't wait for the other stories. I liked meeting her friends and can't wait to hear more about them when they get their own books.

I was provided an arc e-copy by the publisher Harlequin Desire and the author
Yahrah St. John So I can give a honest review thank you do much for sending me a copy.

Her Best Friend's Brother was a enjoyable read.. Wynter Barrington’s wealthy family cuts her off. Riley Davis is her brothers best friend so he's off limits bit that doesn't stop Wynter. I love these two together. 4 star read 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Happy Reading

Her Best Friends Brother

Thank you to HARLEQUIN - Romance and Net Galley for the opportunity to read this ebook in exchange for an honest review.

This story follows travel blogger Wynter Barrington. After the death of her aunt she goes through a lot and her family cuts her off. She is given an inheritance from her aunt which makes her family relationship even more strained. Insert Riley Davis, one of her best friends brother. He is anti commitment but finds himself wanting more with Wynter after several trysts.

I loved Wynter’s relationship with her friends. It’s very relatable and heartwarming. I liked the story progress and it made it a quick enjoyable read. I didn’t care for Wynter’s family and I don’t know if I could be as forgiving as her. It definitely would take some time.
