REVIEW - When it Sizzles (The McGuire Brothers #8) by Lili Valente


The Book
Release Date: 6th September 2024

I’m a nerdy virgin—glasses, spreadsheets, collection of test tubes, you get the idea—and proud of it.

I don’t mess around with unpredictable things like lust, let alone love.

Or so I think…until a gorgeous, brilliant blast from the past kisses me at my sister’s wedding.Suddenly, I’m staying up all night with Dr. Connor Sinclair, making out, making plans, and kicking his adorable butt in chess.

The catch? Connor’s leaving town in three days Three days! That isn’t nearly enough time to spend with this delicious, sexy, oh-so-perfect-for-me man.

So when he shows up at my place the next morning with two tickets to Vegas and a wild plan to roll the dice on forever, I shock myself by saying…yes.

Yes, to a whirlwind romance.

Yes, to saying “I do” in Sin City.

Yes to breaking all my logical rules.

Will this turn out to be the biggest mistake of my life? Or the best illogical choice this nerd ever made?


My Review    5 STARS
This is the last book in the McGuire Brothers series and this short but sweet Novella is the icing on the cake.

Wendy Ann is the youngest child and has always had the threat of her older siblings to keep her being a 24 year old still holding her V-Card, whilst being a bit of a nerd.

Connor Sinclair is in his thirties and moving away from Bad Dog after selling his medical practice, he does not want to work with his barely tolerable young brother and is moving to Boston.

When the pair meet at Binx and Sevens wedding the sparks between this pair leap of the pages and the chemistry lights up the pages as their wits also find a true challenge within beautiful wrappings.  It's a true meeting of the minds.

I have enjoyed the whirlwind romance and leap of faith that the characters take and am actually sad that this is the last of the series.
