With his passion for romance novels, it was only a matter of time before Vlad wrote one.
Elena Konnikova has lived her entire adult life in the shadows. As the daughter of a Russian journalist who mysteriously disappeared, she escaped danger the only way she knew how: She married her childhood friend, Vladimir, and moved to the United States, where he is a professional hockey player in Nashville.
Vlad, aka the Russian, thought he could be content with his marriage of convenience. But it’s become too difficult to continue in a one-sided relationship. He joined the Bromance Book Club to learn how to make his wife love him, but all he’s learned is that he deserves more. He’s ready to create his own sweeping romance—both on and off the page.
The bros are unwilling to let Vlad forgo true love—and this time they’re not operating solo. They join forces with Vlad’s neighbors, a group of meddling widows who call themselves the Loners. But just when things finally look promising, Elena’s past life intrudes and their happily ever after is cast into doubt.

Isn’t It Bromantic delivers the story I have been waiting for: Vlad the Russian! This series has been a fun, lighthearted delight and I was excited for Vlad because he has been such an interesting side character throughout the first 3 books.

Vlad is already married-although it was just to help a friend (yeah, we know how THAT goes). But, Vlad wants a passionate romance and is determined to make Elena see that there is nothing convenient about their marriage. Vlad has always been the romantic type and I wanted him to get his HEA! There were times I was annoyed with Elena because how could you NOT love this man with blind abandon?!? Why was this difficult?!? Sure, yeah, she has a secret past that forced her to flee Russia. But, I was super protective of my Russian so I was a little tough on her.

The Loners were AWESOME! As great as the guys in the book club are, the addition of the old granny widows was just perfect! I love a funny old lady and they are always a welcome addition to any book, but they worked especially great with the Bromance Book Club.

Now, the plot really picked up in Isn’t It Bromantic and I was not ready for that! The last bit of the book kind of goes a little darker than previous books. I was not expecting this but I really enjoyed it.

Isn’t It Bromantic is another home run in the Bromance Book Club series that will delight readers with it’s wit, deep romance, and zany characters.

Today, Lyssa Kay Adams writes full-time from her home in Michigan with a pesky, fluffy K9 assistant named Domino who spends most of his day snoring on her desk (that is, when he’s not burying things around the house).

Things Lyssa loves: Baseball pants, mashed potatoes, and that little clicking sound that scissors make on the cutting table at fabric stores.

Things she doesn’t love: Mean people, melting ice cream cones, and finding food in her underwear drawer.

  1. The Loners and the Cheeseman put this over the top for me. Loved them! Reminds me of , I think, the second book, where Adams brought us to the farm. I want to see those characters again. I didn’t understand why Elena was the way she was, but once she shared what she had heard, I understood a bit more. Not my favorite plot device by ok.
