Rom-Com Reboot Book 3: Legally Brawn by DJ Jamison

 

Rom-Com Reboot Book 3

Sometimes you have to fight for true love....

When my boyfriend dumps me to find someone more "serious" in law school, I'm devastated but not defeated. I just have to show him I have brains as well as brawn, right?

Thankfully, my best friend Jordan is ready and willing to help me get into law school and prove myself. Only when I get there, ready to reclaim my man, Clay's move on.

To the snarkiest gay boy I've ever met.

And they're engaged!

It's a terrible shock, but Jordan keeps me going. When I'm ostracized from a study group, he helps me prepare for exams. When I'm set up to make a fool of myself at a college party, he's there to rescue me.

After I land an internship to work on a real legal case, it seems it's all paid off. And most surprising of all? I love this lawyering thing!

Clayton, on the other hand, is looking less appealing by the day.

Jordan is the one I want to talk to morning and night. The one I can count on to support me. The one who...I really want to kiss?

Whoa. Maybe it's time to review the evidence and decide once and for all.

Have I been fighting for the wrong man? And will Jordan forgive me that justice has been so blind?

Because I'm pretty sure of the verdict now.

I've fallen in love with my best friend.

Legally Brawn is Book 3 of the Rom-Com Rebbot series, in which classic Hollywood rom-coms get an M/M spin, along with some heat and a satisfying HEA!

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Legally Blonde is one of my favorite rom-com movies and I was super glad that this series decided to follow that story! These have been so fun, reimagining those classic movies with a twist. Our main guys is Ellis and Jordan. Ellis is determined to win his ex back. After being dumped for not being serious and being only a personal trainer, Ellis sets out to prove to Clay that he has what it takes to be a lawyer just like him. And hopefully he can win him back. With the help of his best friend, Jordan, helping him study, he achieves his goal and gets into law school. Just to find out that Clay has moved on and his engaged. But Ellis won’t give up… or will he? Jordan has been in love with Ellis for a long time and has settled for the idea that Ellis will never see him that way. He has tried to tell Ellis he deserves more than Clay but there is only so much his heart can take. Now he has a front row seat watching Ellis do amazing things in law school. All his friends tell him to fight for Ellis but could he really fight if he wants Ellis to be happy? These two were the cutest. I loved how Ellis slowly was opening his eyes to what was right in front of him the whole time. Little by little he realized how much he has changed and that what he thought he felt for Clay maybe wasn’t what he once thought. And when he starts feeling attracted to Jordan? Well things definitely shift. And I loved Jordan trying to just be the best friend he could be even if it was breaking his heart. But he loves Ellis so much and it shows! Such a fun story and end to this series. You don’t want to miss this one!

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
