Brother's Best FriendFake DatingForced ProximityBillionaireHate to LoveRomantic SuspenseSmall TownFall for Grae and Caden in their fake dating, brother’s best friend, small town romance from USA Today Bestselling Author, Catherine Cowles!
He hadn’t always just been my brother’s best friend. There was a time when he was mine, too. Until he disappeared from our small town when I needed him the most.
Now, Caden’s back. With his cocky smirk and infuriating nicknames. And I’m struggling to ignore his presence.
When my ex refuses to leave me alone, Caden steps in, suggesting that it will get my ex and Caden’s calculating father off both our backs if we just pretend to be madly in love.
There’s just one problem… Nothing I feel for Caden Shaw is fake—even when I thought I hated him. And there’s no denying how the touch of his lips sparks a flame I’ll never be able to extinguish.
As those pretend moments start to turn oh so real, someone’s watching. They’re not happy about Caden’s new role in my life. And they’ll do anything to rip me away from him—even burn us all to the ground…

Let me start by saying, I especially loved Grae. She made this book for me. Our girl's bad ass. It's what kept me turning the pages. I just loved her strength, tenacity, independence, and soft heart. I loved her dedication to her family and friends, as well as her job. I loved her personality. There's so much to admire and like about her that she became one of my favorite leading ladies Ms. Cowles has written.
On top of that, I adored the Hartleys and their small town. They give that warm fuzzy feeling, making you feel as though you're part of the inner circle.
And it kills me to say this, but I had a love/hate relationship with this book. There's just something about it that didn't resonate through me like its predecessors.Which left me sad, because brother's best friend is my absolute FAVORITE cup of tea, and Glimmers of You was on my highly anticipated list.
Sadly, Caden & Grae's story fell a tad bit flat for me and I wish I could nail why. But unfortunately, I can't, because all of Catherine's trademark ingredients were there. The writing was on point. The characters were written with depth and growth. The who done it added the right amount of mystery. The characters were likeable. It should have been a slam dunk. Making me think this was most likely a this is me not you issue.
I think part of my issue may have been the familiarity of the story line; the been there done that. Caden and Grae reminded me a lot of Falling Embers, And normally, I don't mind that. It adds an air of comfort. But this time around, it left me wanting.
Now that's not to say I didn't enjoy Glimmers of You. Because I did. I just didn't feel Grae and Cayden in my soul. Something I've become used to with Catherine Cowles' books, and I missed that feeling.
When it comes to this author's books I tend to have high expectations, She's a top three fave of mine for a reason. Her books suck me in, captivate me, and keep me glued until the very end. I know when I open one of her stories I'm going on one hell of an emotional ride. I know I'm about to meet my newest addiction. And even though this one wasn't the hit I was hoping for, I'm eagerly waiting on Roan. I have a feeling this man will put us through the ringer and I'm sooo there for it. *sigh*
