In need of time to clear her head after the end of her engagement, Twyla Cavanaugh decides to accept a temporary house-sitting job in San Francisco, where her brother Miles is a professional football player for the San Francisco Kingsmen. She's surprised but pleased to learn that her brother's teammate, Chase Andrews, will be her new neighbor. Twyla's had an innocent crush on Chase for some time, but it was never a big deal because she was in a relationship. However, things have changed now that she's single, and not just for Twyla; Chase secretly has feelings for her too, but he never wanted to break bro code to pursue his friend's little sister. Living across the hall presents a whole new set of challenges and temptations for them both, especially after Miles asks Chase for help in keeping an eye on Twyla. When they break the rules, will Miles be able to forgive them?
I loved the chemistry and witty banter between Chase and Twyla, as well as the way he came out of his shell when he was with her. I couldn't help but find it endearing that he seemed so shy at times, such as when he came over to ask her to watch TV with him. His bond with the stray kitten was adorable, too. There was such a big heart hidden under Chase's grumpy exterior, and it was so much fun to see it slowly revealed as his relationship with Twyla blossomed.
I highly recommend this book for all contemporary/sports romance and
romantic comedy fans and look forward to Twyla's brother's book, which will launch a new series later this year.

About "Over My Brother's Dead Body, Chase Andrews"
Chase Andrews.
The Kingsmen's top tight end.
My brother's friend and teammate.
My new neighbor.
The grumpy to my sunshine.
But underneath that grumpy exterior, there's so much more.
Chase likes to pretend nothing affects him, but I've seen glimpses of his other side in the time we've spent together.
And the more we get to know each other, the more I'm falling for him.
Under normal circumstances, this would be great. Except my hyper-protective big brother thinks no man is good enough for me, and my ex-fiancé is trying to win me back.
One charming, seemingly good man already broke my heart. Am I stupid to give a self-confessed relationship-adverse football player a chance to break it a second time?
