Prose Before Bros by Smartypants Romance, Cathy Yardley
5.0

I'm totally loving all of these books set not only in the fictional world of Green Valley that I love, but also with some awesome librarians! This book had some amazingly true parts about how it is to be a librarian, as well as so many real things that go on in the book world. Like authors banding together to donate and help out libraries in need, or anyone in need. And the fight between the last generation of librarians to save everything and keep it traditional compared to the newer generation of librarians who want to get the library to meet the needs of all of its patrons. I am not normally a fan or a reader of actual motorcycle club romances, so that is probably what kept this from being a full 5 stars here on my blog, even though I will give it the full 5 stars on every other site instead of rounding down to 4. It was my love of the perfect picture of librarians of all ages, along with the whole Green Valley scene and some of the characters we already know and love that keeps me rounding it up. The story was good, and in the end, I loved the way that Thuy saved the day. I mean all that pain and suffering in her early life definitely deserved to pay off in some way, and it did in the perfect way to save Drill.

I'll once again reiterate how much I'm loving this series and all the ways we get to go back into the Green Valley world and be a part of it. To meet all these new characters and see them interacting with the main characters from other books in the series is fun as well. As much as I say I don't like MC romances, I did actually enjoy a bit of seeing Drill try to find his way out of the Wraiths and getting a little bit of a peek into that organization now that all the big names we know from the Winston Brothers series have made their exits. Now, hand over the next book in the series please, I'm ready for it!
