Miami Nights & Club Lights Book 3: French 75 by Addison Beck

 

Miami Nights & Club Lights Book 3

Cassius

I’m in love with my best friend and he doesn’t even know it.

While everyone else can see how gone I am for Skylar, the man himself has no clue. I’ve always done everything in my power to show him how much I love him and prove to him that I’m the one for him.

After one bad breakup between him and his latest fling, he decides he needs to build the perfect boyfriend, and who else is going to help him besides me?

But this is my shot. It’s my chance to show Skylar that the real thing has been in front of him the entire time.

Now, there’s nothing that’s going to keep me from claiming what’s rightfully mine.

French 75 is dual-pov, friends-to-lovers romance. With pining, a bit of hurt/comfort, and lots of XO content, French 75 will leave you panting for more. This is the third in a series of interconnected standalones featuring the workers of club XO as they try to find their HEAs.

My Review: 5/5 Stars

It’s Skylar and Cassius’s turn! In the last few books we’ve watched Skylar date terrible guy. They treat him horribly and always end up breaking his heart. While his best friend, Cassius, stays on the sidelines hopelessly in love with Skylar. Cassius and Skylar have been best friends for a long time. There is no one closer than them. But Cassius is too afraid to tell Skylar how he feels. He has made himself believe that he can be there for Skylar in any shape or form, even if it breaks his heart more and more when Skylar refuses to see what is right in front of him. Because the perfect man Skylar is looking for is Cassius. He just needs to open his eyes and see that. But Cassius is also patient. And he knows that despite being afraid to tell Skylar, he also knows that Skylar has to come to this realization himself. He has to choose Cassius. So he’ll wait. And an opportunity has finally arrived that has Cassius hoping their time has finally come. Skylar is determined to make a list to make the perfect boyfriend and he wants Cassius’s help. Cassius decides to show Skylar what it could be like when the right guy comes along and maybe Skylar will finally see Cassius is the one for him. These two! You just wanna shake Skylar to make him see what’s in front of him. These two act more and more like boyfriends throughout the book and even then, Skylar can’t admit to himself that he too is in love with his best friend. But with both their pasts, it’s understandable. And as much as you want to be like their friends who are tip toeing the edge of being blunt with Skylar, you get why Cassius has to wait. And it becomes so much more satisfying when Skylar finally sees what is in front of him. Really enjoyed this story! We also had a new character who had me in stitches and there is definitely going on with him and a certain someone. So I will need that story asap! But overall, another great story to this series!

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
