Rori:


Tall, dark, and devastatingly handsome, Reed Baker is the reason I’m still a virgin.

Will he protect my heart,

Or is this hunky top-dog all bark and no bite?

I liked this book. The story was well written and flowed beautifully. The characters were well defined within the story and they had such great chemistry. I loved the ending. If you like the works of this wonderful author, then this book is a must-read.

Rori, 24, is a flight attendant on a private jet and has always had a crush on her best friend’s older brother, Reed. She even wanted him to go to prom with her but since he wouldn’t she hasn’t seen him in 6 years. Reed is a former marine who is now a private bodyguard for a rock star and on a flight to Argentina with Rori as the flight attendant. She still finds Reed handsome and sexy and he asks her to stay for the week. They are both attracted to each other and there is a lot of flirting and bantering but they both hold back because of Reed’s sister. Will Reed’s big gesture show Rori how he really feels? Will Rori and Reed finally connect and reveal their feelings to one another?

I loved this short book with 2 people finally coming together as adults. I really liked both characters and the author did a good job of letting you get to know them. I especially liked the epilogue with a short look at the future.

In this book of Regina's we meet Reed and Rori. They've known each other for years, and both have held secret feelings for each other. When ending up in the same place after not seeing one another for six years, sparks fly. But they both feel it's forbidden as Reed's sister Beth is Rori's best friend since childhood.

This was pretty steamy and I loved Reed so much! Great secondary characters too and the story flowed quite nicely.

I loved this one. The story was so well written and each character had so much personality. I loved the longing and angst between Reed and Rori. I loved that it was drawn out. There was one scene where it was a little steamy, and then another one that was a little more steamy, but I felt it was tamed compared to some of the other books I read in this series. Which isn’t a problem at all. Definitely a nice change of pace. I also really loved Rori at the end, her worries. It was extremely realistic. Very good story!

Tall Reed and Short Stack do Buenos Aires and dance the Tango

Her BFF's Brother is the eight book in the Protecting Her Heart series and is the story of Rori Stewart and Reed Baker.
Rori grew up with and is best friends with Beth who is Reed's younger sister. Even though Reed is nine years older then the ladies and had already left home to go into the Marines he still remembers Rori and her firecracker ways.
Reed is now thirty-five, retired from the Marines for a few years and is working private security. His latest client is the pop star Brash Knight who is embarking on a world tour for his latest number one single and album. When Reed is getting everyone ready to board the flight to Buenos Aires, Argentina he notices a young woman and realizes it is a grown up Rori who is going to be their flight attendant on the private plane. Let's just say that he is taking a very keen interest in Rori.
Rori is twenty-four years old and for the last several years she has been a flight attendant, first for a commercial airline and now for a private company. Her first flight is to Buenos Aires for the famous pop star Brash Knight. What she was not anticipating was crossing paths with Reed Baker. She would definitely recognize Reed anywhere, as he is not only difficult to miss but he is also her first and only long term crush.
Over the course of the next couple of days these two play a game of cat and dog with a lot of pushing and pulling between them. They have a sexual chemistry that is off the charts off but they both try to fight it because of Beth. After all neither wants to harm their relationship with her as she is too important to them both. But sometimes you cannot fight the inevitable and then sometimes you cannot fight the sensuality of the Tango. But it will take Rori flying Beth down and Brash plotting on behalf of Reed to really bring these two together in an amazing way.

Reed has known Rori almost forever .  She's always been there just like mom's lasagna sauce, mowing the lawn every Sunday and bright yellow squeeze bottles of mustard.  She was there on summer weekend trips home.  She was always there until one day she wasn't.  Rori has had feelings for Reed her whole life, it seems.  When she was old enough, she took a job as an flight attendant and never looked back.  If she stayed away maybe she could forget about Reed and her feelings for him.  Then six years later they are both on the same flight to the Caribbean. 

This is a great short steamy read.  Following Reed and Rori as they get to know one another again was fun.  This book also has some great secondary characters.  If you looking for a great story about love, loyalty and friendship with a bit of steam, this is it.

I really liked this book. This was a total different approach though. Normally the couple are the energizer bunnies but this book focused more on the story and backstory of Rori and Reed. Regina has this sense of humor that I love so much and it really comes on in her characters interactions with each other. It’s hilarious and cute. The text messaging had me laughing. I must say though, these people are borderline cannibals with the biting lol but that just adds to the charm. There were a few things that I myself have done and there’s so much I can imagine myself doing just because I like to have fun and interacting/flirting should be fun. Sure, you can be hot and heavy but you can also be fun at the same time. Regina understands this and that’s why this woman is the Brash of the author world. Total rock star!

Reed was an ex-Marine who was now working private security. While working for this Rock Star on his plane Reed spotted Roni his sisters best friend. He was secretly in love with her and has been for years.
Roni is working a a stewardess on the plane that just happens to have Reed on there. Reed my secret crush. After we land and at the hotel, Reed asks me to stay and enjoy the city they are in. Neither one wants to make a move cause they don't want to hurt his sister/her best friend. Roni sends him a text message just to flirt with him to see what he'll do. To her surprise he shows up at her hotel room to give her a little tease.
The Rock Star comes up with a plan so Reed can finally tell Roni he loves her. It all works out for the best and even the sister is all for this relationship

[Pat]

Rori is adventurous and daring. Reed is protective and brooding. They’ve known each other for years, Rori is his sister’s best friend. They’ve never crossed the line into forbidden territory until a trip to Buenos Aires throws them together. This romantic short story is sweet with teasing sensuality, a good plot, scenic locations and likable characters. I like that the issue with the sister is resolved quickly. I love the playlist, their texting and the way their thoughts, feelings and movements are interspersed in their flirty tango! Enjoyable story with really nice epilogues for a glimpse into their future!

I liked this story a lot. It was entertaining and enjoyable even when I wanted to smack the characters occasionally. The characters were interesting and likable. Beth was an awesome best friend and sister. Reed and Rori really needed to communicate with not just each other but with Beth. I was glad that Rori and Reed got to spend time together. Brash was an awesome client/rock star. His advice to Reed and plan was wonderful. Rori and Beth had a great relationship. Reed and Rori got their happy ever after and it made me smile. I recommend reading this book.

[Knight Linda]

A wonderful romantic read that was short enough to be read in less than two hours. A book filled with heart break and happiness as a friend steps in to make one of them see reason. They have been in love for years, but all they did was run from each other. Now they are stuck and can no longer run from each other. They can only try to ignore the other one. They just do not want to hurt his sister, which was her best friend too. You will enjoy this story when a friend sets a plan in motion to get the two them together at last. You will finish with a smile on your face.

Rori Stewart has loved her best friend’s brother, Reed Baker, for many years. But when he turned her request down to go with her to the Prom, she left home and Reed hadn’t seen her for 6 years. Reed had joined the Marines and was now a private bodyguard. His current client is a rock star and when they prepare to board their flight, Reed immediately spots Rori who will be their flight attendant.

Both Rori and Reed are still attracted to each other, still “secretly” in love, but they hold back on their feelings because of Reed’s sister who is Rori’s best friend. With a little encouragement from friends, will they move forward and claim the HEA they have waited so long for?

[Faith Pilger]

Once again Regina Wade delivers an amazing book. The characters are relatable but their story makes your heart break and want to scream all at the same time. Sometimes things that are meant to happen just don't happen now they happen later. Rori has loved Reed her best friend's brother for as long as she can remember but he just never seen her beyond her sisters best friend or so she thought. I would definitely recommend this book.

[Michele]

Six years of denying his love for his sisters best friend has landed Reed and Rori to this moment. This was a great cat and mouse game of tease and want. Great storyline with well developed characters, you can feel the tension between them with just a glance. Enjoyed the supporting character of Brash, a fun guy who helps Reed pull out all the stops to get Rori.

3.5 stars.
This was a cute and sexy read. I enjoyed reading this book while trying not to freeze to death from the cool wind on the beach (yeah, don't ask, it's supposed to be summer but the wind here is cold AF!) Reed and Rori's heat helped keeping me a bit warmer. I'd have liked to know Brash better and explore the new friendship with Reed. They were kinda cute. Bromance!

This is on the top of my favorites by this author. This is just something so sweet and so extremely hot with these characters that make you want to melt.

Reed and Rori's story is hot and passionate, but it will also make you want to to laugh. The connection and interaction with Reed's sister is not what you would expect.

This great read is amazingly written.

A whole lot of tropes, a whole lot of fun! This story has rockstars, bodyguards, best friend's brother, and is kinda second chance kinda instalove. Rori and Reed are a rollercoaster of emotions, fun and sexy while still worried about bestfriend/little sister Beth's reaction. Add in the beautiful locale and you have a must read story! Plus, a little teaser about the next story, AMAZING!

[Shifty Bugger]

Loved the book it was great, the story was well written and the characters are interesting. Rori and Reed have been in love with each other but no-one makes the move. Rori became a flight attendant six years later they bump into each other, they both decided that they loved each other and try to see how it goes.

This was my first read from this author.The story is about Rory and Reed and it's told in the first person dual point of view, which I always love and it's a deal breaker for me. This was a good story. The story flew effortlessly. I will read more from this author in the future.

Loved this book so much. Rori and Reed are such a great couple who finally got their act together after Reed’s sister admitted she would be fine with them. This is a Best Friend to Lovers book. Can’t wait for the next book.

I've enjoyed this read; two people who want to be together but feel that they shouldn't be together are thrown to together years later. I thought the plot was good, the characters likeable and it flowed well. Will we get to read the other story that is hinted at in this one?

Torino has akplways had a crush on her best friends brother. Reed now sees Rori the the woman she is. Will these two finally open the door to the possibilities? I had a great time reading this book with the characters being well developed and engaging and the storyline flowing smoothly.
