Bromantically Yours

Bromantically Yours was a sweet, lighthearted fluff of a novella. It’s a quick read guaranteed to make you smile, with no angsting and no major drama in this friends to lovers tale. I did not read the book that this was the cause for the call for this one, but I didn’t feel like it detracted anything, either.

Best friends since they were small children, the two have grown into men, and their friendship is as close as it ever was, still spending more time with each other than anyone else.

The vast majority of the book takes place in either Nate or Dylan’s houses, so there is very little world-building required. Both MCs are intelligent, witty, and willing to fess up when they make a mistake. Their friendship flows from friends to lovers as smoothly as melted chocolate, and their chemistry grows exponentially as a result. The sexy times are hot, hot, hot, and yet there is a sweetness that pervades it all.

With virtually nothing in the way of drama, Nate and Dylan’s coming together is a story that will leave you smiling all the way through. I’m rating this at 3.5 stars, and happily recommend it to anyone looking for light and fluffy happiness.

A 100 page novella giving these two bros their own story. I've not read the rest of the series and had no prior knowledge of Nate and Dylan's relationship. While this could be a standalone, I felt I didn't have enough background to really be invested. I couldn't connect with them much at all, I think it's important to be in the know with the rest of the series.

So, having said that, I found the sexual situations to be lighthearted and slightly funny, but they lost all heat, in my opinion. The first encounter in bed between the two boys was exploratory but also too clinical. Do this, do that. The guys are romantically clueless on being with another man and they seek advice from their friends, who recently solidified their own gay relationship and I'm not sure that helped or hindered the story for me. The characters really fell right into each other without any qualms or odd feelings about going from straight to gay. Could have used a bit more drama? Bromantically Yours left me sorta on the fence. Didn't hate it, didn't love it.

I absolutely adored Bromantically Yours! Not only was the bromance turned more relationship between Nate and Dylan cute to watch play out, but there are some seriously sexy scenes. In fact, their first scene when Nate gave Dylan a hand… I had to put my Kindle down and catch my breath because not only was it unexpected, but it was hawt! What I enjoyed most about this novella is that Wells builds on the decades-long friendship and history as best friends to move their relationship forward without it feeling rushed. Yet she allows them to take it slow, so to speak, when it comes to the sexual aspects of their new relationship status. We get to see Dylan freak out over their first encounter and both men experience nerves as they contemplate more. I liked that they sought out advice, no matter how awkwardly done, from their friends who were able to guide them thoughtfully. Nate’s conversation with his mom broke my heart for him; to learn that the person who is supposed to love you unconditionally has views so different than your own and can dismiss your relationship so easily, that had to hurt. But at least that conversation allowed Nate to realize just how much Dylan meant to him. Their first date was adorable, but their Valentine’s Day date was practically perfect – Dylan did a great job of sweeping Nate off his feet.

If you haven’t read Out of the Shadows yet, don’t worry because it’s not necessary. Nate and Dylan make appearances as Josh’s friends, but they don’t have major roles other than being supportive of his relationship with Christian. If anything, you may end up wanting to read Out of the Shadows because Josh and Christian play pretty big roles in Bromantically Yours as Nate and Dylan find their way from friends to lovers. Either way, Wells has penned a perfectly romantic friends-to-lovers novella that left me with a smile on my face and hoping that it gets released as an audiobook. Bromantically Yours has earned a spot on my holiday re-read shelf and the five stars that goes with it.
