SYNOPSIS:
Mabel “Maybe” Willis died a virgin at the very young age of twenty-four.
She leaves behind her parents, Betty and Bruce, her brother, Evan, a laptop filled with one too many Jason Momoa memes, and a Kindle library with more books than one human being could ever finish in a lifetime.
Cause of death: a text message.
Okay. So, I didn’t die.
But I may as well have.
One minute, I’m a woman trying to find her way in the world, and the next, I’m the sender of six of the most embarrassing text messages that have ever been sent in the history of time—or the cell phone. Whatever.
We’re talking code red, send a flipping mayday, the apocalypse is coming kind of texts.
And I didn’t just send them to some random person I’ll never see again.
No. That would be too easy.
I sent them to Milo Ives.
The man who played a starring role in all of my teenage fantasies—and my brother’s lifelong best friend.
And, boy oh boy, has he grown up.
He’s hard-bodied, blue-eyed, jawline-of-stone handsome, crazy successful, and has more money in his bank account than my brain can fathom.
Deflower me, please? I said.
Yeah. Send help.

REVIEW:
I have yet to read a book by the talented author duo that is Max Monroe that I haven’t thoroughly enjoyed. Always hilarious, their romantic comedies pack a one-two punch of steam and story. Creative, imaginative plots, endearing, relatable characters and romances that are as heart-tugging as they are heart-pounding, Max and Monroe deliver the goods every single time. Teetering on the edge of ridiculous, the humor in their stories is the kind of stuff that makes readers laugh audibly, so considered yourself warned should you attempt reading their books in public.
My Brother’s Billionaire Best Friend piqued my interest because I love the brother’s best friend/best friend’s little sister trope, especially when it’s coupled with an unrequited, adolescent crush. I loved Maybe Willis. She was innocently naïve, and she was completely oblivious to the fact that she was gorgeous. Her sense of humor and her slightly awkward social ineptitude made her such a charming character. But it was her drive and determination, the way that she set her sights on what she wanted and made like Nike and just did it that made her the perfect match for billionaire Milo Ives.
Milo Ives, or Billionaireman as Maybe dubbed him, is a pretty down-to-earth guy. Hard working, driven and loyal, he jumps at the chance to help little Maybe Willis with some connections for her job hunt when her brother, Evan, the CFO of Milo’s company, asks. He hasn’t seen her in nearly a decade, and he’s still envisioning the starry-eyed, awkward teenage girl she was the last time he saw her. He was ill prepared for goddess she’s grown into. Her sweet, innocent seduction of him was blistering hot, yet wholly hilarious—thanks to Maybe’s self-appointed new best friend, Lena, the boho-chic trust fund baby/barista/relationship guru. Their love story was unique in that aside from the heat and the humor their journey included, there was also a coming-of-age, poignant quality to it that made Maybe and Milo’s romance totally swoon-worthy, addictive and unputdownable.
My Brother’s Billionaire Best Friend was quintessential Max Monroe—a fantastic blend of sweet, sexy romance and the kind of laugh-out-loud, smiling ear-to-ear humor that readers have come crave this author. A fabulously executed, light-hearted pleasure to read, I devoured this book until my cheeks ached from smiling. Five smooches from me for My Brother’s Billionaire Best Friend by Max Monroe!
