Cait’s Review of “Comeback” by Rebecca Jenshak

By: Cait Marie

Blurb

My brother’s best friend is such a jerk.

An imposing, handsome jerk who doesn’t trust me. And now we’re roommates.

He wanders around the apartment in nothing but gray sweatpants, looking like a broody, tattooed muscle god, and playing music that shakes the walls. I want to hate him for treating me like an intruder, but there’s something about the way he looks at me—like he’s trying to figure me out—that keeps pulling me in.

Archer Holland is loyal, caring, and protective—with everyone except me.

Every time I move around our apartment, I can feel his glare. And the worst part? It only makes me want him more.

Not that it matters.

He’s my brother’s best friend—the one guy I can never have. But after a late-night rescue, we go from sharing a wall to sharing a bed.

I’m not sure what my brother would do if he found out, but it doesn’t matter because Archer says it can’t happen again.

That imposing, handsome jerk is about to find out I’m done playing by his rules.

Review

This book was absolutely adorable. Brother’s best friend is one of my favorite tropes, and I was really excited when Sabrina was introduced in the second book to set up this story. It did NOT disappoint.

I’ve loved all of the Holland brothers so far, and while I don’t think anyone will top Brogan (who’s technically just an honorary Holland), Archer holds a very special place in my heart. He’s just so… perfect. He has such a big heart, and while he does act like a jerk in the beginning to Sabrina, he’s only like that because he’s worried about Brogan. Archer doesn’t trust her intentions after she shows up claiming to be Brogan’s sister, but she slowly works her way into his life, and he can’t resist the pull toward her.

Their chemistry and banter is great, and I adored seeing him interact with her best friend’s young daughter. It was so cute.

There is some spice, but not a ton. Much like the rest of the series, the book is character driven, with a focus on the romance and plot. The spice isn’t a main point in the story.

This book was hard to put down; I thoroughly enjoyed it. I highly recommend it to those looking for a lighter romance with a bit of spice. It’s one I would probably reread, along with the others in this series. But it’s going to take minute to do that because I’m making my way through Jenshak’s other books, AND the fourth Holland Brothers book just released. I’m so excited to read Baby Holland’s story!
