A hacktivist and a cat café owner decode the friend zone in this romantic comedy from the author of Undercover Bromance.
Alexis Carlisle and her cat café, ToeBeans, have shot to fame after she came forward as a victim of a celebrity chef’s sexual harassment. When a new customer approaches to confide in her, the last thing Alexis expects is for the woman to claim they’re sisters. Unsure what to do, Alexis turns to the only man she trusts—her best friend, Noah Logan.
Computer genius Noah left his rebellious teenage hacker past behind to become a computer security expert. Now he only uses his old skills for the right cause. But Noah’s got a secret: He’s madly in love with Alexis. When she asks for his help, he wonders if the timing will ever be right to confess his crush.
Noah’s pals in The Bromance Book Club are more than willing to share their beloved “manuals” to help him go from bud to boyfriend. But he must decide if telling the truth is worth risking the best friendship he’s ever had.
A coffee-shop owner with a cat named Beefcake and a nerd are BFFs. Only he likes her, she likes him, and the cat couldn’t care less…. Crazy Stupid Bromance by Lyssa Kay Adams is the third book in the Bromance Book Club series.
Can a guy and girl be besties? Sure. But can besties cross over to more? How do you know if your bestie is feeling the same? Amid family reunions and big decisions, Alexis Carlisle (Lexa) owner of the cat café, ToeBeans, and computer genius Noah Logan are both secretly struggling with these thoughts.
For Logan, his friends offer him an invitation to the Bromance Book Club and it begins with offering him a romance book to read. Alexis talks things over in her head, with her antisocial cat Beefcake, and eventually her friends.
We’ve got daddy issues, family issues, and meddling friends. Awkward moments, misunderstandings and growth to get through, but along the way we are rewarded with tender moments, hilarious friends, and plenty of family drama.
Alexis may have issues, but this girl is all heart from saving cats to helping victims. There is a moment she feels rejected and assumes the wrong things. It caused some drama, and while Noah ends up taking the blame, it was delightful to see Alexis own her own baggage.
The Russian was pretty tame in this episode, but a development has me eager for his book… folks I need answers.
Humor, sensitive topics, heartfelt characters and friendship abound in Crazy Stupid Bromance. And while this story holds its own, I implore you to read the series in the order of their release.
Curl up and enjoy Crazy Stupid Bromance by Lyssa Kay Adams, the third novel in the hilariously sweet romance series The Bromance Book Club #NewRelease #ARCreview Share on X

This is a fun series. I am listening to the second book next week. Nice review Kimberly.
Kimberly
Sweet… I bet these are fun on audio
Rachel
Ha! I love this cat in the picture!
I agree, I super interested in The Russian’s story now. It’s funny how she backed off of his bathroom issues a bit in this one. I was thinking it’s because he’s the next romance up and that kinda kills the mood, right? Maybe he’s taking a probiotic to help with the issues now? Lol! In all seriousness, I’m super excited to read his story now. Love him!
Kimberly
Bwhaha…yes, thank goodness.

I’ve not read the 2nd book in the series but I’m already hyped to get to this one just because I love the bromance boys! They’re all fun! And the fact that this is a friends to lovers kind of romance kinda makes me want to relate to it at some level.
Kimberly
I hope you enjoy it!

That ending had me chomping at the bit for The Russian’s story. I am so intrigued. Once again, my favorite moments were the Bromance moments, and I thought Adams really turned those up a notch in this book. I loved Beefcake too. We’re like kindred spirits
Kimberly
Yes me to Sam. Beefcake rocked 🙂
