Elena Konnikova has lived her entire adult life in the shadows. As the daughter of a Russian journalist who mysteriously disappeared, she escaped danger the only way she knew how: She married her childhood friend, Vladimir, and moved to the United States, where he is a professional hockey player in Nashville.
Vlad, aka the Russian, thought he could be content with his marriage of convenience. But it’s become too difficult to continue in a one-sided relationship. He joined the Bromance Book Club to learn how to make his wife love him, but all he’s learned is that he deserves more. He’s ready to create his own sweeping romance—both on and off the page.
The bros are unwilling to let Vlad forgo true love—and this time they’re not operating solo. They join forces with Vlad’s neighbors, a group of meddling widows who call themselves the Loners. But just when things finally look promising, Elena’s past life intrudes and their happily ever after is cast into doubt. - excerpt from Goodreads.
Isn't it bromantic? by Lyssa Kay Adams is the fourth book in the series with the Russian as the main protagonist. Vlad was elusive and full of mystery from the first to the third book, the thing that is usually highlighted about him was his lactose intolerance and how bad it smells when he farts. It was really enjoying reading about his personality, his struggles and his romance story.
As usual, the gang tries to help and those moments are truly funny because of the conversations and actions. The introduction of new support characters and Vlad's love interest gives flare to the story. Elena is definitely a good match for him and who she is truly reflected from her past and her haunts. They compliment each other as well as challenging each other, my attention is often captured by their interactions. When they are in their own thoughts, those are moments that are frustrating for readers because you would be thinking so close yet so far. With the addition of a new gang of Vlad supporters, I was amusingly entertained. Those ladies are fun, caring and definitely people who I wished I had in my life.
In summary this book guarantees laughter, some tears and definitely very heart warming. Having written 3 rom coms from the book club, the author has continued to excel it in. This was a great page turner because the interactions and reactions will keep you on your toes. The past of the characters also adds an extra element of mystery to keep you reading. The series is without a doubt fresh and steamy, I know that if you like rom coms you will love the Bromance book club titles
