Clean Out of Luck by Carina Taylor
4.5
funny lighthearted fast-paced

Best friend's sister to lovers with a fun magic twist has The Serendipity bringing another couple together with its magic.

Scarlett had always wanted to live in The Serendipity and even though she lives in the basement in the old maintenance apartment, she's happy. Now to get her other wish, to find true love. If only Wade, her brother's  best friend, would stop ruining her dates for her. 

Wade is reluctant to "look out for" Scarlett when his friend Phoenix asks him to (as he's gone for 6 months). But as he does find her attractive, he feels he can maybe torture enough dates that she might start to feel about him the way he does for her. 

I love Phoenix and Wade's friendship and how Phoenix looks at his best friend as someone who is good for Scarlett. I like the firehouse guys that Wade works with and all their advice (and maybe one making sure Wade gets jealous 😉) where Scarlett is concerned. I love the Gloria scenes, she's a funny old lady! I even loved the little sprinkles of story with the mop 😍
