Best Bros Forever Book 1: The Bro Pact by Charli Meadows

 

Best Bros Forever Book 1

Kyle

I had my entire future mapped out, which is exactly how I prefer things—organized and predictable. Law school, marriage, two-point-five kids, and a white picket fence. Nothing extravagant, just a little family of my own, and a place to call home.

But life has other plans when my long-term girlfriend dumps me at the end of freshman year, and I’m left feeling empty and rejected.

Luckily, my best friend, Warren, is there—like he always is—to make me smile and laugh, distracting me with his latest wild idea. And this one might just take the cake.

He proposes a pact—no girls this summer. Just bros for three whole months.

And I accept. 

Warren

When my best friend and I find ourselves burned by the opposite sex and moping around a bonfire in his parents’ backyard, I take it upon myself to better our situation.

I fix up an old RV, and we start the summer with an epic road trip to the Pacific that I’m hoping will repair his broken heart. But Kyle keeps creeping on me, stealing shy glances that roam my body and make me feel things I shouldn’t.

It turns out this bro pact is a lot harder than either of us anticipated, and it’s pushing us together in ways we never imagined. Ways that have us questioning just how deep our bromance truly goes.

The Bro Pact is book one in the Best Bros Forever Series, a collection of standalone contemporary gay romances. You can expect best-friends-to-lovers, bi-awakening, gay for you, and forced proximity. This novel is intended for 18+ readers and touches on some sensitive subjects.

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Charli Meadows has easily become a favorite author of mine. And no surprise here that I loved her latest book! Kyle and Warren are the best. Best friends since they were kids, they are inseparable. While Kyle is the rule followers, Warren is the daredevil. Yet they balance one another out. Kyle can bring Warren down off the cliff and Warren can get Kyle to take some risks. So after both their girlfriends broke up with them and Warren can see Kyle is a bit more down about it, he decides he needs to cheer him up. His answer? A road trip. So after fixing up an old RV, they hit the road with California on their minds as their final destination. They have two weeks to get out of their heads and of course to make a pact. No girls. Just them two. But the moment they leave, it is clear that the two of them start looking at one another a bit differently. Not used to maybe being attracted to one another, they aren’t sure what to do at first. But then, they take a chance. And now their friendship is slowly turning into so much more. But what happens when the trip ends? Will this be their secret forever? Will they be able to go back to being just friends? Or will they be able to take another leap of faith and turn their lifelong friendship into something so much more? I adored these two. It was clear how much they cared and loved one another. Even before their feelings turned romantic. Warren will do anything to make Kyle smile and vice versa. It was such a sweet story to watch as these two fell in love. You definitely don’t want to miss this story!

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
