About this book

Book Summary

The first rule of book club: You don't talk about book club.

Nashville Legends second baseman Gavin Scott's marriage is in major league trouble. He's recently discovered a humiliating secret: his wife Thea has always faked the Big O. When he loses his cool at the revelation, it's the final straw on their already strained relationship. Thea asks for a divorce, and Gavin realizes he's let his pride and fear get the better of him.

Welcome to the Bromance Book Club.

Distraught and desperate, Gavin finds help from an unlikely source: a secret romance book club made up of Nashville's top alpha men. With the help of their current read, a steamy Regency titled Courting the Countess, the guys coach Gavin on saving his marriage. But it'll take a lot more than flowery words and grand gestures for this hapless Romeo to find his inner hero and win back the trust of his wife.

Media Reviews

"Adams weaves in humor, complex emotions, and excerpts from the motivational story itself to create a satisfying courtship. A strong supporting cast, including Gavin's book clubmates and his tiny, adorable twin daughters, helps flesh out the Legends community." —Publishers Weekly

"A fun, sexy, and heartfelt love story that's equal parts romance and bromance." —Kirkus Reviews

"Readers will look forward to more books in the Bromance Book Club series after this promising start." —Booklist

"A delightful, fast-paced read with the perfect mix of laugh-out-loud and swoony moments–every town should have a Bromance Book Club." —Evie Dunmore, author of Bringing Down the Duke

"With its quintessentially American setting, The Bromance Book Club is a funny, bittersweet unfurling of what it means to be married; what it means to be a sister, and a daughter and a reader... Shows that everything worth knowing—can be learned from romance." —kc dyer, author of Finding Fraser

Author Information

Lyssa Kay Adams

Lyssa Kay Adams read her first romance novel at way too young of an age when she swiped one from her grandmother's stash. After a long journalism career in which she had to write way too many sad endings, she decided to return to the stories that guaranteed a happy ever after. Once described as "funny, adorable, and a wee-bit heartbreaking," Lyssa's books feature women who always get the last word, men who aren't afraid to cry, and dogs. Lots of dogs. Lyssa writes full time from her home in Michigan, where she lives with her sports writer husband, her wickedly funny daughter, and a spoiled Maltese who likes to be rocked to sleep like a baby. When she's not writing, she's cooking or driving her daughter around from one sporting event to the next. Or rocking the dog.
