Falling in love? Hard pass.
Falling in love with Henry Callahan? Set me on fire first.

Rich, party girl Avery Banks has had her eye on her brother’s best friend Henry for longer than she’d like to admit. She’s spent years pretending she doesn’t care—pretending he doesn’t get under her skin every time he smirks in her direction or calls her “trouble” like it’s a compliment.

He’s chaos, adrenaline-seeking, successful, funny, and hotter than the sun, but he’s also dangerous in a way Avery’s been built to ignore.

He makes her face things.

Actual feelings?
Ew.
Responsibility? What?
A plan for her future? That sounds terrible.

But thanks to a freakishly unfortunate turn of events, Avery now finds herself locked in the most extreme case of forced proximity imaginable with the one man who’s always been too hot to handle—and now way too close for comfort.

Giving in to a little chemistry? That might not be totally reckless.

A quick fling to get him out of her system? Practically self-care.

She just has to remember to do one thing:


Leave before she loves him.

Author Note:
This standalone romance is a "brother's best friend," "best friend's little sister" romance in the Meet Me at Midnight world.





Avery + Henry

Henry is her older brother's BFF and the whole gang was supposed to fly to a private villa in the Bahamas for a fun weekend. But instead of her bestie and brother and two other friends... it's only her and Henry. The guy she's been crushing on since she was a basically a toddler.
They start arguing before the plane even lifts off the ground and unfortunately that's only the beginning. Because they do not arrive at their luxurious villa.
Anyone got a spare volleyball to paint a face on?

LET THE FUN TIMES BEGIN! 


ADORABLE!
That was so cute and funny and sweet and a bit sad and exciting and adventurous.
First we're on that crazy dangerous and romantic adventure for a while - just the two of them - and the second half of the book it's back to life in the real world.
A world they both feel they don't fit into anymore. At least not yet. After what they survived. So they spend most of their time together. Secretly.

That was just adorable. I loved reading it.
We get to see lots of Beau and Juniper and little Addie. Great cast of people!
And I loved how Avery never really changed from the hilarious fashionista IT girl but she grew up a lot in this book.

It wasn't the re-invention of the rom-com - we've read dozens of books in this genre - but pff - who cares. It's why we love romance. There's always something new or funnier or better or whatever!

LEAVE BEFORE I LOVE YOU was such a cute brother's-best-friend Rom-Com. Funny, sexy, exciting and all the things! Run to your nearest book dealer for your own Henny - this one is mine!
