Tropes I love: fake relationship. Tropes I hate: virgin and man who sleeps around, brother’s best friend’s. The tropes I hate definitely outweighed the fake relationship in this one, especially given that: 1) the main character’s brother is a complete asshole, 2) there is so much infantilizing of the main character, including repetitive use of “baby girl” during sex scenes. And the term of endearment would maybe be fine...if her main struggle wasn’t that everyone in her life, including her family, still sees her as a kid.

I did appreciate both main characters support for each other, but mostly just...meh.
