Tell Me a Story
Joey
I don’t want to be someone’s dirty little secret. I know all too well what that feels like.
Guarding my heart means staying out of pro football player Brock Williams’s bed and out of the spotlight. But after all these years, he’s exactly like I remember, charming, determined, and used to getting what he wants. And what he wants now is me.
The chemistry between us is undeniable. And the guy I always saw as a player is now the one who makes my heart beat fast—the one who leaves dirty love notes on my pillow.
Oh, yeah… he also happens to be my brother’s best friend.
Brock
Hooking up with Joey is a bad idea, but that’s not going to stop me.
I remember the first time we met. Joey showed up at campus to visit her brother, and when she came walking out in that little yellow bikini, I stopped seeing her as my best friend’s little sister and saw her as someone I desired but could never have. It turns out I was wrong.
For now, it’s stolen moments and promises on paper… of all the things I'm going to do once I make her mine. Her brother might not forgive me, but she’s worth the risk. I can't deny myself any longer.
I'm tired of sitting on the sidelines. It's time to execute the play and show Joey how our story ends.

Had potential but too many cheesy lines from Brock made it corny. The “Tell me a story” got nauseating.
October 5, 2022
My favorite swoony writing duo deliver yet another captivating and dreamy love story! SO many delicious tropes- brother’s best friend, a secret love, sports, forced proximity, and a bit of a forbidden flair.
Brock and Joey are just so adorable together. With a sweet and charming chemistry that these two authors are known for. A low angst, slower burn, butterfly-inducing love story. Brock is just a dreamboat- y’all know i love me some emotionally transparent heroes, and he’s just that. He’s open about his feelings, a woo-er, charming and so supportive. And Joey is such a sweetie- reliable, kind, loving, genuine. She has a bit of doubt about falling for an NFL player given her personal family history, and even though she’s had some hardship, she’s still so open.
I loved watching these two fall. Lacey and Kaylee always write love that develops so authentically- a real and sincere connection stemming from a spark that grows and grows. Their relationship certainly has some steam, but it’s the emotional connection and friendship between them that I adored the most. The forbidden aspect just makes the flirting fun and light- not too dramatic And I loved Caleb too- and his relationships with both Brock and Joey. Hoping we get a future story for him.
Another sweet, feel good romance from the queens of butterfly-inducing HEAs.

Tell Me A Story is the newest standalone from author duo team, Kaylee Ryan and Lacey Black. If you love romance novels that bring all the swoon with a bite of forbidden love twisted in the weave, I highly recommend you pick up Brock and Joey's story!
In My Own Words:
Brock was living his life the way he always pictured, the top player in his position on and off the field. He lived his life with the playboy status, and then the unthinkable happened. He found himself getting traded to another team. But opportunity arises when he finds out he'll be playing, once again, on the same team as his best friend, Caleb. Crashing with Caleb is the ideal situation, but Brock never imagined his life would further change when Caleb's little sister also shows up looking for a place to stay.
Joey's life was at an impeccable high, until trouble at works has her putting in her notice and packing up her things. Through her life there has only been one constant and one person she knew she could turn to, her half brother Caleb. So with her bags packed and his permission, of course, she visits brother dearest.... and his best friend.
Never in a million years would she ever picture herself falling in love with a football player, but here she is falling head first for her brother's best friend....
My Thoughts:
Every time I pick up a novel by Kaylee Ryan I know in the bottom of my heart it's going to bring a smile to my face and quite possibly a tear to my eye. What can I say, Kaylee Ryan is a rockstar when it comes to bringing that epic All The Feels moment to her stories.... Kaylee Ryan is a rockstar on her own, but when we add Lacey Black to the picture... let's just say this dynamic duo takes romance to the next level.
I'm blown away by the chemistry between Brock and Joey! I felt each and every emotion shine bright through the pages of my kindle. I cheered for these two from beginning to end. This standalone is definitely worth the read if you all love these tropes: Older Brother's Best Friend with a Secret Relationship twist!
Now let's talk about these characters. Starting with Brock. Brock is this good looking, smooth talking man, with a heart of a hero. This man protects and fights for those he loves. He loves the game, but he's not afraid to walk away from it for the one that he loves. Let's just say, this man is legit book boyfriend goals!
Josephine 'Joey' wears her heart on her sleeve, even though life hasn't been the kindest to her. I caught the sense that she learned from her parents mistakes, and she refuses to treat people the way she has witnessed her mother and father treat people. I loved her kind heart and her ability to talk through things instead of giving the man in her life the cold shoulder. She thrives on communication, and talking through every day issues. She understands that being with a pro-athlete comes with its fair share of every day struggles, mainly lies the press concocts to sell magazines. This is the part I loved most about their relationship, Brock and Joey worked things out through communicating.
My heart loved everything about this story, but most of all, my heart loved Joey and Brock's story! I loved the fact that their initial communication started with a letter and stemmed and grew from their. I loved reading the little love letters they each left for one another. I loved watching their love grow and blossom through these letters. And if all that hadn't already set my heart to dancing, the final epilogue definitely would have been the icing on the cake.
Now onto the reasoning behind why I dropped a star on my rating. I loved every thing about Joey and Brock's romance, but there is one factor I would have loved to witness that was mentioned but never really shown. You see, Brock has a really close relationship with his mother, I would have loved to see Brock bring Joey into that fold. I wanted to see Joey get the motherly relationship she always craved within her future mother-in-law. I guess I wanted a tad bit more from insight. What can I say, I'm a bit of a spoiled reader.
Overall, I loved Tell Me A Story by Kaylee Ryan and Lacey Black! Aside from the little issue I had, I can safely and accurately say, I will be back for more when it comes to these two authors! I can't wait to see what they have up their sleeves!

Tell Me A Story by Kaylee Ryan and Lacey Black was slow burn to an epic level. This brother's best friend sports romance was all about falling in love slowly even when it is forbidden. Swoony. Heartwarming.
NFL celebrity tight end Brock has just been traded to the Chicago team where his best friend has been playing for years. He has moved in with Caleb. And Caleb's half sister Joey has come to live with them all of a sudden. He cannot deny his attraction. But can they fall in love?
It was a sweet and adorable love story. Brock is definitely a swooworthy hero. Who is also drop dead gorgeous, deliciously sexy and insanely charming. He didn't act like he is cruel or indifferent to hide his true feels that appears to be M.O. of many jock heroes. He was incredibly attentive and did his best to show how much he cares for Joey. She has a warm and loving personality that is actually a miracle considering she didn't have the best childhood. Her father was an NFL player too and he is still living his life scandalously so she was really hesitant to trust another NFL player. But from the first day she moved in her brother's house after a complicated and somehow dark twist in her life...Brock has been the best kind of support. This story concentrated fully on how their friendship developed and then the passion crept in.

I devoured this book. Brock is a tight end who has recently been traded, he’s happy to be playing on the same team as his best friend and the team is lucky to have him. With the preseason and season starting he moves in with his best friend. Joey has had a rough time and is heading to stay at her brother Caleb’s for a while. Brock is the complete opposite of the playboy everyone thinks that he is.
This book felt like a fairytale. One where the princess falls in love with her brother’s best friend, the football prince. Brock is sweet, protective, and sexy. Joey and Brock have an instant connection and chemistry right from the beginning. I loved the build-up of their relationship from friendship to heated glances, little touches, and their talks…..and let’s not forget their swoon-worthy notes and letters. I can’t even explain how unique this book felt compared to the ordinary romance genre.
This is the perfect romance story for football season….ok it’s perfect for any time. Even if you don’t love football, you will love Brock and Joey. I adore everything this writing pair does, this one does not disappoint. I was not ready for this one to end. I loved it.

This book was adorable! Brock and Joey are super cute! This story was super fast pass and in my opinion, a little instalove like. Brock and Joey are adorable in the fact that they fall so hard for each other! I love how supportive Caleb was of their relationship and how much he loved Joey. I hate Joey’s parents with a passion and I love how Brock stood up to them. I love the nicknames Sunshine and Love so much and the fact that Brock used both made my heart melt! This short sweet romance book!

Both Kaylee and Lacey are exceptional writers. A great diversion of day to day life. Their stories are interesting and enjoyable. Would love to see Caleb's story(with maybe Taylor?)
I was privileged enough to receive an advanced reader copy of this book from the author for a voluntary and honest review.

This story….it just makes my heart and soul happy.
Brock just got traded to a new football team and his living with his best friend and teammate. He doesn’t expect that his friends little sister, Joey, will also being living with him.
Brock and Joey form an instant friendship and have an instant connection with each other. However, they didn’t just jump into things. I love that they left each other letters, it was something different and something you don’t really see anyone doing anymore.
Of course, it isn’t smooth sailing for them and there are ups and downs and some drama sprinkled in. Joey’s parents are horrible humans and I felt for her, but I am glad that she had her brother and I loved everything about their relationship.
If you’re looking for a brothers best friend, friends to lovers, roommates, sports romance this is one to check out.

1 star- ya this book sucked LOOL i just couldn’t get passed the cringey ass notes and ���tell me a story” garbage. also i’m sorry but how tf do authors think it’s ok for characters to be obsessed with each other a week after meeting each other?????? it’s quite literally insane how poorly developed their relationship was. if instalove was a book, it would be this one

4.5 Stars
We have all read the best friend’s little sister, the forbidden, and the secrets. But the characters and the story set Tell Me A Story apart from the others. The duo of Ryan and Black can spin a tale you do not want to put down, and I didn’t.
Brock has just been traded and again plays for the same football team as his best friend, Caleb. To make it easier on the season, he is staying with Caleb. What he doesn’t factor in is Caleb’s sister, Joey. I loved the notes, the stolen kisses, and the slow burn. Caleb and Joey have a sibling relationship, which most would be jealous of, and parents who bring the drama. But it is the love story of Brock and Joey that makes it all worth reading.
Thank you to the Author for the advanced copy; this is my voluntary review.

It’s no surprise that these two amazing authors are perfection writing together. I love when they team up and write all their swoony words . I loved this story so much and I can’t wait for the next book from this duo. Brock brings the swoon for real real and Joey simply can’t resist …..

February 24, 2023
I liked it, but something was missing, 3+ stars from me!
Brock is a tight end who just got traded, but he doesn't mind since it allows him to play with his best friend, Caleb, again. Since the trade and move was so sudden, Brock is staying at Caleb's place for the time being. What he doesn't expect is Caleb's little sister showing up and bunking with them.
He hasn't seen Joey in a few years and she definitely grew up to be a stunning woman, not that he hasn't noticed before.
There is a very instant, very strong connection between these two, but there are conflicting emotions from both sides, too. Brock has never felt like this before and wants to explore what's between them, but doesn't want to lose Caleb in the process. Joey's mum had an affair with her famous football player dad, so she has lived her whole light in the limelight, it's not something she'd willingly choose.
I absolutely loved this story up until they actually got together. The tension and chemistry was amazing between them. Then it all got a little too cheesy, almost corny for me, but if that's something you don't mind, this might just be your next favorite sports romance!

HOLY HOT BROTHERS BEST FRIEND’S ROMANCE Y’ALL!! I can’t even blame Joey for banging Brock, or Brock for banging Joey. Because these two were just all kinds of steamy and dreamy, forbidden/secret, forced proximity, sports romance deliciousness. A team trade and a recent not so pleasant experience has found both Brock and Joey both living with Caleb. It may have been a while since they had seen each other but suddenly Brock noticed Caleb’s little sister isn’t so little anymore. She is a gorgeous, sweet and oh so tempting grown woman now. He can't help but to want to touch, taste and tease every part of her and she wants to let him. I couldn’t get enough of this couple.
Brock and Joey’s romantic journey is just the kind that gets me all hot and bothered, gives me heart flutters, and has me rip roarin’ through the pages from the first word to the very last syllable. Tell Me A Story was a unique take on the brother’s best friend trope with its flirty, fun and even a bit filthy banter by way of secret hidden messages and letters left for each other. But also it was during this time that they built this deep and strong connection with each other. Learning about what each other wanted in the future. I love the element of just how hard it was for these two to keep their hands to themselves. They tried, they really did. Their chemistry was just undeniable and palpable but they had this deeply emotional connection that was stronger and really took them both by surprise.
So well written it scorched up the pages and sucked me right into this storyline. A smoking hot and swoony sweet story that while has the element of “will they get caught by the brother/best friend” it is a low angst story without a lot of OM/OW drama. Truly Authors Kaylee Ryan and Lacey Black have such great writing chemistry the story flows flawlessly. Now I’m not sure if they just write the entire thing together or switch off chapters or if one takes one character's POV and the other takes the others but either way I cannot tell which is which if they are.. So they definitely rocked it out all around in my opinion. I loved all the characters in this book. They were just “Chefs kiss 💋 ”The secondary ones as well. ( crossing my fingers for more from these character’s) Definitely pick up this and let Brock and Joey…Tell You Their Story!
FIVE Stars for Tell Me A Story. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Tell me a story...
What a beautiful concept for this story. It was a magical way for the couple to speak to each other. I loved that they wrote letters to each other and didn't spend the whole time texting.
These characters are wonderful. Brock Williams and Joey Henderson had a terrific connection and the way their relationship built up was thoroughly enjoyable. It was a joy to watch them fall and find their space in each other's world. Finding each other was the easy part dealing with the world around them was their biggest obstacle. Between a best friend/brother they're trying not to betray, parents who can barely claim the title, the reality of dating someone famous, and the paparazzi, Brock and Joey don't get it too easy but the ride is definitely worth it.
I loved this story with its friends-to-lovers theme, some funny light-hearted moments, plenty of flirting and spice, and characters that were very enjoyable.
Lacey Black and Kaylee Ryan have given us a story to fall in love with.
.
.
.
Brock's life turned upside down in only a couple of weeks. He's been traded from Chicago to Kansas City right before training camp. Luckily his best friend is already a Kansas City player and he can crash with him and take his time to settle in. He's been known as a player for a while and he's enjoyed his time as a professional athlete he's not looking for a relationship but he knows what it would take for him to settle down.
Joey is running away from her problems. She's had to quit her job and while she pulls herself back together she's going to stay with her older brother Caleb. Caleb and Joey have different mothers but the same father, ex-pro footballer Richard Henderson. He may have given her the best of things as she was growing up but he never gave her what she really wanted, unconditional love. The only person who made her feel that was Caleb.
After settling into Caleb's she's shocked on her first night when his best friend Brock walks in. All those years ago when she met Brock when he and Caleb were in college she was attracted to him then. Now Brock's only become more handsome and the attraction is still there.
Brock remembered Joey from college and how cute she was but now the woman in front of him is not only unbelievably gorgeous but she's smart, funny, and has him all twisted up. He knows that she's off limits as his best friend's little sister but he's never wanted someone the way he wants Joey.
'I want her with an intensity that's bigger than football. That's really the only way I know how to explain it.'
As they spend time together they can't deny the chemistry and the building longing they feel to get closer. When they finally give into their feelings it couldn't be more perfect. They fit together like they should have always been.
"Oh this is the good part of the story," she says when I stand and remove the towel from around my waist. "Sunshine, every part of our story is the good part. Now, get naked."
They have no idea what anyone else will make of their relationship or what going forward as an official couple will actually look like.
"Even among the chaos lives a beautiful story. Our story."
Happy Reading.
What a beautiful concept for this story. It was a magical way for the couple to speak to each other. I loved that they wrote letters to each other and didn't spend the whole time texting.
These characters are wonderful. Brock Williams and Joey Henderson had a terrific connection and the way their relationship built up was thoroughly enjoyable. It was a joy to watch them fall and find their space in each other's world. Finding each other was the easy part dealing with the world around them was their biggest obstacle. Between a best friend/brother they're trying not to betray, parents who can barely claim the title, the reality of dating someone famous, and the paparazzi, Brock and Joey don't get it too easy but the ride is definitely worth it.
I loved this story with its friends-to-lovers theme, some funny light-hearted moments, plenty of flirting and spice, and characters that were very enjoyable.
Lacey Black and Kaylee Ryan have given us a story to fall in love with.
.
.
.
Brock's life turned upside down in only a couple of weeks. He's been traded from Chicago to Kansas City right before training camp. Luckily his best friend is already a Kansas City player and he can crash with him and take his time to settle in. He's been known as a player for a while and he's enjoyed his time as a professional athlete he's not looking for a relationship but he knows what it would take for him to settle down.
Joey is running away from her problems. She's had to quit her job and while she pulls herself back together she's going to stay with her older brother Caleb. Caleb and Joey have different mothers but the same father, ex-pro footballer Richard Henderson. He may have given her the best of things as she was growing up but he never gave her what she really wanted, unconditional love. The only person who made her feel that was Caleb.
After settling into Caleb's she's shocked on her first night when his best friend Brock walks in. All those years ago when she met Brock when he and Caleb were in college she was attracted to him then. Now Brock's only become more handsome and the attraction is still there.
Brock remembered Joey from college and how cute she was but now the woman in front of him is not only unbelievably gorgeous but she's smart, funny, and has him all twisted up. He knows that she's off limits as his best friend's little sister but he's never wanted someone the way he wants Joey.
'I want her with an intensity that's bigger than football. That's really the only way I know how to explain it.'
As they spend time together they can't deny the chemistry and the building longing they feel to get closer. When they finally give into their feelings it couldn't be more perfect. They fit together like they should have always been.
"Oh this is the good part of the story," she says when I stand and remove the towel from around my waist. "Sunshine, every part of our story is the good part. Now, get naked."
They have no idea what anyone else will make of their relationship or what going forward as an official couple will actually look like.
"Even among the chaos lives a beautiful story. Our story."

I’ve read books from both of these authors, but I haven’t read any of their books that they’ve co-written! I knew that this book was releasing and I was drawn in by the cover, so I grabbed a copy once it released and read it when I had the chance! I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this book, but I actually really enjoyed it! The plot developed at the perfect pace and it only took me a few sittings to read! There was a lot of romance in the plot and I loved the way it developed and the pace it developed at! The romance also allowed for a few steamy scenes and a lot of sexual tension! There wasn’t really any action or suspense in the plot, but there were a few scenes that could have changed the direction the plot went in, so it kept it interesting! The characters were also amazing and made this book even better! Joey was the main female character, and in this book she had left her job and was starting fresh! I really liked Joey and she was easy for me to connect with! Joey also went through a lot in this book and I think she was strong and she supported those around her and supported her love interest a lot! Brock was the main male character and love interest of Joey! I loved Brock in this book and he wanted a successful career and to be able to provide for himself! Brock was also so in love with Joey that he didn’t want to do anything to mess up their relationship and he was open with her and always told her the truth! I loved them as a couple and they amount of trust they had with each other! This book was written from both Joey and Brock’s point of views! I was hoping that it was going to be before I started reading and the synopsis gives the impression that it’s going to be! I loved that it was because it helped me connect me more with Joey and Brock and see their feelings for each other develop and see how they felt about what they were going through! It allowed for more things to happen in the plot as well, which helped as the main characters did spent some time apart and went through some situations by themselves! I can also completely understand why this book is a standalone! Everything in the plot was wrapped up and all the questions raised were answered! The ending was also left at the perfect place for the characters and I loved it a lot! I now can’t wait to read the books from these authors that I haven’t read yet! They’ve still got lots of books that I haven’t read yet, so I can’t wait to check them out and read their other co-written books! The cover for this book is also absolutely stunning and really suits the feel of the book! It’s what initially drew me to the book and made me read the synopsis! The cover models are also the perfect Joey and Brock!

I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports.
Joey
I don't want to be someone's dirty little secret. I know all too well what that feels like. Guarding my heart means staying out of pro football player Brock Williams's bed and out of the spotlight. But after all these years, he's exactly like I remember, charming, determined, and used to getting what he wants. And what he wan'ts now is me. The chemistry between us is undeniable. And the guy I always saw as a player is now the one who makes my heart beat fast-the one who leaves dirty love notes on my pillow. Oh, yeah...he also happens to be my brother's best friend.
Brock
Hooking up with Joey was a bad idea, but that's not going to stop me. I remember the first time we met. Joey showed up on campus to visit her brother, and when she came walking out in that little yellow bikini, I stopped seeing her as my best friend's little sister and saw her as someone I desired but could never have. It turns out I was wrong. For now, it's a stolen moment and promises on paper...of all the thins I'm gong to do once I make her mine. Her brother might not forgive me, but she's worth the risk. I can't deny myself any longer. I'm tired of sitting on the sidelines. It's time to execute the play and show Joey how our story ends.
I love a good best friends brother book an Tell Me A Story is a great one. This is one is a slow burn too and I really enjoyed stepping into their world from the instalove I seem to be reading lately.
This is the story of Brock and Joey. Brock is a NFL player who has just been traded to the Chicago team and will be playing with is best friend since he has been playing for the team in Chicago for years. Of course he moves in with his best friend Caleb never expecting his half sister Joey to come and live with them unexpectedly. She is hot and the moment he sees her in her tiny yellow bikini he is a goner for her. But things are never that simple. Can they really ever stand a chance at falling in love and getting the happily ever after and not upset his best friend and possibly break their friendship? You have to read and find out but I loved this story. It will pull you in and have you hanging on every single word.

“Notes On A Love Affair
Tell Me A Story is a touchdown for authors Kaylee Ryan and Lacey Black. What brought this one into the end zone for me was the stellar performance by hero, Brock Williams. The tight end with the tight end don’t play!
Brock, a professional footballer, was recently traded and is now on the same team as his best friend Caleb. He’s rooming with him until he finds a place. But his search for a place of his own comes to a screeching halt when Caleb’s half-sister, Joey Henderson comes to stay for a bit. From here on out, we’re in the red zone, baby. I’m talking about the fiery attraction-can’t stay away from you-need to touch you-need to hold you-not letting you go zone.
Y’all heard the saying, ‘the bigger they are, the harder they fall.’ When it came to Joey, the six-foot-four, two-hundred-and-fifty pound baller dropped like panties at a boy band concert. I mean, could Brock be any more swoontastic? I totally could’ve read this book from his POV alone. I just could not get enough of him. I want To Be Continued all over his deliciousness.
Ms. Ryan and Ms. Black navigated the brother’s best friend trope really well. It had the perfect amount and didn’t feel like it overwhelmed the love story. Brock and Joey were full on in their own world for the majority of this book. I love me some serious couple time, so that’s a big score in my playbook. While Joey was the hesitant one (and home girl was well within her rights), Brock was like ‘it’s go time, baby.’ He is so gone for her!
When a man tells you:
“I want us more than I want my next breath.”
Not you. US! Ma’am?! What are you waiting for???
Also, Sir?! If you’re watching me with hearts in your eyes while I’m asleep, you can be a creeper all night long. I won’t mind one single bit.
Joey’s backstory is well developed. So, you’ll understand all my ramblings when you read the book. Because it is a definite must read. I felt super bad for this girl and the way she came into the world. I love her relationship with her brother, though. It’s sweet and caring. Caleb is a whole other bag of goodies, and he rocked the best friend role in this one.
And the ‘stories’… the cutest idea ever! I won’t give that away. Go read it. It so simple, yet so original.
Two blacktastic thumbs up for this romantic rendezvous!

Tell Me A Story is the newest release from Kaylee Ryan and Lacy Black. This the first book from Lacy that I have read and must say I enjoyed this book from start to finish. I loved following Brock and Joey's wonderful story with the beautiful way they would share with each other little parts of their story. I look forward to reading more from both of these talented authors. ~Dawn
This was a fantastic story! Joey and Brock's romance was so pleasant to read. It was easy and flowed well. And the letters. I loved the letters. I think it made this romance come out on top. They definitely had their ups and downs, but in the end it was meant to be. Both authors come together to weave such a great love story. Definitely recommend!! ~Andrea
"Falling for your best friends little sister isn’t always the smartest thing to do, but Brock couldn’t fight his feelings for Joey any longer, he had to make his move.
Their chemistry was amazing right from the get go, however, Joey is a little apprehensive about putting her heart out there again, and with Brock being the ultimate player, she knows to tread lightly. The notes they left for each other all over the house added some extra swoon along with some sweet times and the just right amount of heat.
I loved their story, everyone needs someone like Brock in their life to love them unconditionally and forever. Joey got the raw end in the parent department, luckily for her, Caleb her big brother makes up for both of them. I am hoping Caleb is next to get his HEA just like Brock and Joey.

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This is a brand-new football romance with football player Brock and his best friend, roommate and teammate, Caleb's younger sister, Josephine/Joey.
I would say this is a forbidden romance as Brock is a huge player and that's not on the field and he has no plans to settle down. Joey has always crushed on Brock, but she knows how much football players are well players off the field and has no intention of dating a football player ever. And so, the fun begins when she joins Caleb and Brock as their new roommate.
This story was absolutely awesome. I loved how fast and hard Brock falls for Joey as they get to know each other when they become roomies. I loved how Brock was always there for Joey and stood up with her as well as for her when she needed it.
The title of this book was so on point, and I loved the little notes that Brock and Joey write to each other. Each one is a love letter essentially where they each tell each other a story about how they are feeling for each other. I adored the way they tell each other how they feel, and these notes were such an awesome way to share how they are feeling as they fall in love with each other.
This was one of the best brothers' best friend falls for his younger sister and also a roomie to love romance. It also was just so hot, sweet and romantic and I absolutely adored the romance of this story.

Brock has trouble written all over him, but ignoring the way her heart beats when he is near is impossible. She knows starting something with a player like him is only going to get her heart broke, but he seems different from the guy she use to know, like maybe he's changed. Like maybe he could be the one... but first she has to figure out a way to tell her brother she's in love with his best friend.
The pages of Tell Me A Story will pull you in, you'll lose yourself in the words, feel all the feelings and fall for two people who will leave an permanent indent on your heart. These two had the deck stacked against them, both hesitant to love or put themselves out there due to past hurts, and both worried about what it would do to their relationship with Joey's brother. So they turned to sneaking around, stolen moments here and there, full well knowing they could be caught at any given moment. It started to wear on them though, the guilt and secrecy, it was an impossible situation. One they finally found their way out of... but not without a few bumps and stumbles.
This well penned romance came brimming with all the feels my heart could handle, it was such a beautiful love story. I loved watching these two find their way to a happily ever after, It wasn't pretty at times, but it was honest and heartfelt. Highly recommend!
I requested an advanced copy of this title from the publisher, and I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased opinion.

As always I am in awe of how well Kaylee Ryan and Lacey Black are able to write such a cohesive and unique story. When two authors write together sometimes you can tell that it is two different authors, but with Lacey and Kaylee they write so seamlessly you honestly can't tell where one or the other is writing.
I found Tell Me A Story to be a sweet and unique romance that was written like a fairy tale. I loved that as the leads, Josephine "Joey" and Brock, fell in love with one another they would tell or write each other notes with the story of how they were falling in love at any given moment. And I just thought it was such a sweet idea. And at the end of the book Brock took all of the notes that they had written and put them into a book of their love story.
I think what I loved most about this book was how much Brock cared for Joey. Through out the book you really see how Joey has never had anyone in her corner except her big brother. Her father just threw money at her and never really asking about her but demanded she do as he say and her mother just cared about her next rich boyfriend. Throughout the entire book you can see how Brock alway put Joey first in his life, he followed her lead on telling her brother, his best friend and teammate, about their dating, he followed her pace for their relationship. I just felt that they were so well suited for one another.

This title owns me. The way ‘Tell Me A Story’ is woven throughout the storyline is something ridiculously special. Seriously, ALL TIME favorite title.
This duo of authors are top tier. The best of the best. I can never differentiate who wrote what because they flow together as creative minds and that showcases through their collaborations.
‘Tell Me A Story’ is not your or ordinary romance book. It’s so hard for me to even try and explain why that is, while also being mum about it, but this story moved me, in ways I did not see coming and that stems from the amazing world building. With the timely development and in depth look into Brock and Joeys world, this book was a definite page turner, and made me it’s b*t**.
Joey and Brock; I was completely devoted to them and their storyline. I was a definite fan of how their actions meet up with who they were, and that never swayed. They were a match in every which way. There was no rush, just pure adoration that built and built and til there was nothing but flames.
Tell Me A Story is my definite top book collaborated by Ryan and Black. The ante has been upped, and I can not wait to read more from this duo. I couldn’t recommend this book more if I shouted it off of the Eiffel Tower.

This writing duo never disappoints! And this story will have you swooning from the first page to the last! 5 stars for this one!
Joey is heading to stay at her brother Caleb's after having a rough time, but not ready to explain it all to him just yet. He thinks she's just taken some time off of work and visiting, which works for her for now. But she didn't realize that his teammate and best friend Brock is also going to be staying there. He's hot for sure, I mean he's a football player, in great shape, so when he makes comments that appear to be flirting, she's caught off guard, he can't possibly think of her in that way when he can have his pick of any model out there.
Brock has a thing for his besties little sister, and he knows it's not cool but there is just something about her that draws him in and he can't stop. Little touches, lot's of talks, and especially lots of little notes left behind for her of a story he created about them.
Can they fight their attraction, or will they give in? Will Caleb hate his best friend for falling for his sister? Read along with this beautiful story and get all your answers! I loved this story, so sweet, so swoony, and so heartfelt! Don't miss this one!
