Holding Out for You by Anna Paige
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed this enemies to lovers and brothers best friend romance. Blair Martel loves her older brother Becker apart from how over protective he is of her however she still likes to hang out with him unfortunately she hates his best friend and the feelings are mutual. Ashton Hunter is Becker’s best friend and partner in crime and they hang out together all the time the only complication is his younger sister Blair, who Becker treats like she’s breakable but he just wants to keep her from the pedestal everyone else has her on. Also on the scene is Blair’s best friend Charli who may or may not have feelings for her best friends brother, Becker. Following a disastrous date with someone else, Blair and Ash have to admit their true feelings for one another.
I loved the four main characters and their relationships with one another and how these changed and developed throughout the novel, and how their complicated feelings also changed over time. I found having the storyline written from different characters point of view made me more in tune with the characters as I knew what they were really thinking and feeling and this made me feel fully immersed in the story. The storyline flowed nicely and the author had me hooked from page one as she took me on an emotional rollercoaster along with Blair and Ashton. The chemistry between the two of them sizzled off the page even as they were denying their mutual attraction as did the connection between Charli and Becker, I’m hoping the author may give them their own book to explore their possible relationship. I found this book a wonderful read and I could not put it down as I cheered the characters on hoping they would get their happy ever after. I definitely recommend this novel.
