Falling for the Groomsman was the book that led me to the pure sexy awesomeness that was the Wedding Dare series. I'm a huge fan of Jen McLaughlin/Diane Albert's books and jumped at the chance to participate in the blog tour for this book when the opportunity presented itself. After finishing this one, I one-clicked the rest of the books in the series and devoured them all in a matter of a couple days. So, thanks Jen/Diane, for introducing me to this series.I may have said it a time or two before, but I *love* second chance romances. Falling for the Romance is exactly that. Tyler and Christine have known each other for years. He's the bride's brother and she's one of her best friends. They knew each other growing up and – in a moment of indiscretion – he took her virginity when they were younger. He panicked and left her... left their town... and they haven't talked since. She thought he used her and has no idea of what really caused him to run. Now they're face-to-face again after all this time. Things were complicated and, eventually, rather sexy.I loved these characters! Tyler is a hot and sexy doctor who is a bit of a daredevil. Christine is a photojournalist. They were both strong, and a bit stubborn. Now that they're together again, Tyler wants another chance. He wants to explain what really happened. Christine is scared of being hurt again, but finds it really difficult to fight what she feels for him. And, rightfully so, because he's pretty much the total package. I really liked the two of them together. I love a couple that challenges each other. Since this book is written from both Tyler and Christine's POVs, readers are given a great look into both of their heads, which made the story feel more complete to me.If you're looking for a great, sexy adult standalone series, I can't recommend this one highly enough. I've read several Brazen titles, but I've never read an entire series yet. I tend to stick with the ones written by authors whose work I'm familiar with. This series has made me see the error of my ways. I'm definitely missing out on something. I thoroughly enjoyed the way all the characters appeared in each novel, giving another perspective to the pairings and the individual characters. These stories all meshed really well together and that's one of the things I enjoyed most about each of the books individually and the series as a whole.I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
