Juniper has a crush on Beau. She secretly talks to him at night and he doesn't know who she is. He is also her best friend's older brother....

Love the charcters. Juniper and Beau are terrific. So many LOL scenes too. Love the funny banter as well. A terrific LOL rom-com.

Thanks to the publisher for the arc.

Juniper fell in love with Beau, her best friend's older brother, at first sight years ago, and there is no hope of getting over him or getting his attention. She's known this forever. But then a competition is set up between Beau and his rival colleague for the advertising for a new app that lets people chat anonymously. Juni is smart enough to realize that this is her chance to talk to Beau like a grown woman and not the teenager he sees. It is absolutely fabulous -- until problems begin to arise. Along the way, there are all kinds of crazy situations that happen to Juni and lots of great banter.

Juniper has been pining after Beau for 10 years. There are so many reasons why she can’t go after him. She’s an intern and he’s an executive, he’s her best friend’s older brother.

For a rich place they’re staying in a building with very thin walls 😂 I guess I don’t need realism
The first 40% of the book hooked me then it went meh from there. There was no chemistry or romance, yes there were lots of sneaking around to see each other but it was a lot of telling rather than showing their connection. I wasn’t getting anything from him and I wasn’t convinced that he was into her.

I don’t like how Avery was portrayed, she seemed like an extreme ditz. I’m sure there are people like this irl but she had zero personality besides being spoilt, dumb and being a flake. Boys were always on her mind (perfectly fine) but she didn’t seem like a good friend, she just seemed self absorbed. I understand that she was hurt with the whole thing but she was a shit friend too, so I thought that was sooo hypocritical 🙄

Considering that this was mostly a texting/online relationship, when it all blew up Juniper went M.I.A and decided to not communicate at all 😭 I found this so frustrating and immature

Maybe give this a go if you like the tropes, I did stay and finish it until the end so it still held my interest

ARC Review

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/🌶️🌶️🌶️

♥️ best friend’s brother
♥️ workplace romance
♥️ dual POV
♥️ anonymous messaging

This was my first book by Max Monroe and it did not disappoint! Juniper has been in love with her best friend’s older brother Beau since childhood, but has always felt like she was firmly in the “little sister” zone. She ends up getting a job as an intern at the marketing company his family owns that is working on a promotion for an anonymous messaging app called Midnight. Using the app to message with Beau, Juniper is finally able to say some of things she’s always wanted to because of her anonymity and the story builds from there is with a lot of spice and romance. Already can’t wait for the next book in this series!

Oh so so good!! Thank you for allowing me to read. #NetGalley #MaxMonroe
I love Max Monroe so so much. Everything I read is a 4 if not 5 star! Other than a few (meaning serious), the books are so fun and funny, and light, and just great great books to read at any time! They can write banter like no other! So funny!

We get to meet new people here, Beau and Juniper. Juniper has grown up pretty lonely. She met her best friend, Avery, when they were young, and her family pretty much adopted her right away. Everything June has ever wanted. Her parents are and were always too involved in their own lives to be a part of their daughters. But the one secret she has been keeping from the Banks family, she has been in love with Beau since the day she laid eyes on him. Her best friend’s brother, her second parent’s son. She thought she would take that secret to her grave. But now she is working with Beau and an opportunity arises and she takes it.

Again, so so good! I really am looking forward to reading about more characters. Such great characters and great world building. Thank you Max Monroe for always being an Author I know I can go to and love it!

I loved Meet Me at Midnight so much! I haven't read a ton of the brother's best friend trope but I really enjoyed this one! The whole scenario was unique from the other books that I've read and it was a breath of fresh air! I've only read a handful of Max Monroe books but this has to be my favorite so far! The dirty talk and the banter in this book are on point. Please tell me that Avery's story will be next?!!

I highly recommend you read this book ASAP!

*Thank you to NetGalley and Max Monroe for sharing this ARC with me in exchange for an honest review*

Avery Banks and June have been long-time friends and June has always felt that she is a part of the family. However, Avery is unaware that June has had a crush on her brother, Beau for the past ten years. When June and Avery take on intern jobs at the Banks marketing company, things begin to intensify between June and Beau.
I loved the characters of Beau who does all that he can to protect June, even though at first it appears that it is done in a brotherly manner. He is so charming and caring, that it confuses June. There is plenty of chemistry between this couple as well as when their relationship is still in its infancy and Beau is unaware that he is talking to June in the Midnight app. Added to this, is the sweet friendship between the girls, which makes for some very funny scenes.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This was my first Max Monroe book but it definitely will not be the last. I loved this book so much. The banter, the chemistry, the spicy, and the emotion was amazing. I laughed so much during this book. And blushed a little too. Jupiter has been in love with Beau Since she meet him. Her best friends older brother. But it is more that that. Avery ( the best friend and most self absorbed person on the planet) is more that just a best friend. to her. Her family have taken Jupiter into their lives and loved her like on of them. I really enjoyed this and I can’t wait for the next one.
Thank you to Netgalley for this ACR.

Jupiter has been secretly in love with her best friend’s brother for years, but too afraid to act on it. Until, a new app lets her anonymously express everything she’s feeling….

This was my first Max Monroe book and I absolutely loved it! The storyline, banter, characters - it was unputdownable!

Thanks for the opportunity to read in advance! Will definitely be recommending this.

Meet Me at Midnight is about Jupiter, who has been secretly in love with Beau, her best friend's brother. Jupiter starts working for Beau's family company and secretly messges Beau through a new app that is in it's early stage of development. Beau and sister have no idea that Jupiter has been in love with Beau since they were kids. I liked the story but felt it dragged at times. I did enjoy reading from the dual POV's. I was not a big fan of Ava, she was very self absorbed. But I am curious to see what the future brings for Ava.

Max Monroe books are among some of my faves! Meet Me at Midnight is no exception. I got hooked on the first page and enjoyed the story so much. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.
