I've loved the Accidental Love series so much 💛💛💛 I'm a complete sucker for the found family trope AND best friends to lovers and JUST BROMANTICALLY INVESTED has both. 

I'll be honest, I put off reading it because Not Catching Love felt so far away, but now that its release date is at the end of this month, I figured it was time. 

"I never thought ... this, us, was a possibility, but now that I'm with you, it feels like the only possibility." His hands roam from my hair and over my shoulders. "I need this." ••••• "Yeah,"' I croak. "'Me too." 

Madden, Bertha's resident nudist, and his best friend Penn FINALLY get their act together and realize they're head over heels for each other. 

Of course, it's way more than that. While Madden was absolutely pining away for his bestie - Penn really stole the show for me. There was just something so sad and lonely about him. It definitely gets brought up and resolved in their story, but god. I was reading before going into work today, and he just had me feeling ALL the feels. He was wonderful and so very self-aware. 

There was, of course, a straight to not so straight realization as well, and it felt so REAL. Like, Penn thought this one thing was true, and it absolutely was not true. Seeing how he navigated it with denial first and then action... I honestly can't love him more. Bless his heart. 

Madden and his naturist lifestyle was interesting, too. His feelings and reasons were so lovely, and I just wanted to give him a hug. 

The side characters are, as always, a treat. The Bertha boys and Kismet. Lana, the neighbor, and Lisa, the not so southern belle. 

Again, I love this series, and I can't recommend it enough. Each book is different and there are tropes galore!
