A Long Time Coming: The funny and steamy romcom inspired by My Best Friend's Wedding from the bestselling author Paperback – 26 Jan. 2023

A Long Time Coming is Breaker's story, the third and youngest Cane brother. After loving both Huxley and JP's books I was curious to see how Breaker would differ from his siblings. This book is a friends to lovers romance and Breakers love interest is his best friend Lia. Breaker and Lia have been inseparable as best friends for a decade after meeting at college, the start of the book begins with the start of their friendship and took me a few chapters to get into the feel of the story. After this initial introduction to set the scene, I became invested quickly when Lia gets engaged and reveals the news to Breaker.There are plenty of laugh out loud moments involved when the future Mother-in-Law is a socialite fixated on status and public perception and Lia isn't the most poised and delicate of brides to be. Thankfully Breaker is there as her Maid of Honour to back her up on getting a little say in how it all goes down on her big day. This premise provided a lot of my favourite moments within the book, both with humour and emotion.When things finally click for Breaker and he realises he has feelings for his best friend, was a beautifully written scene. Meghan portrayed the moment with so much authenticity and totally captured the essence of that moment. Then what follows this for the remainder of the book is swoon worthy and ERMAGAH steamy hot goodness!!There wasn't really a gut punch break up Meghan Quinn special in this story just a few hiccups along the way but I think that worked well for Breaker and Lia's story. It was great to have Lottie, Huxley, Kelsey and JP back too, for family dinners and plenty of banter. No-one does sibling conversations quite like Meghan does!!Another positive about this book was the excellent audio narration by Erin Mallon and JF Harding. Erin I am a fan of and have listened to several of her titles, she is always a joy to listen to, especially in those awkward comedic moments. JF Harding voicing Breaker however, was a new to me voice. All I can say is I hope I get to listen to many, many more novels from him. He narrated Breakers character perfectly! He was so endearing and then at the same time the loveable hero we all crave from a good romance. One scene in particular where Breaker gives Lia some instructions as advice was very pleasing on the ear *wink wink*Overall a fantastic addition to Meghan Quinn's repertoire and one I would revisit and recommend. A Long Time Coming has all the elements you need to tick off those friends to lovers trope boxes, check, check and check.

Loved this slow burn friends to lovers story. Great finish to the collection. MMC is very lovable and good humor throughout the book

He is my favourite brother, I love him.His and lias relationship has been beautiful to read.What a journey

I love every Meghan Quinn book I've read. This is the 3rd Cane Brothers book and I genuinely can't decide which brother is my favourite. I loved Breaker and Ophelia's story, so sweet and super funny. Kept giggling to myself while reading it on my lunch break.

This book was probably my favourite out of the Cane Brothers trilogy. Meghan's hallmark writing style with great dialogue and large dose of spice works well in this book. Breaker is the most nerdy and probably most insecure of the Cane brothers (although JP comes a close second) and Lia was just a sweet heroine. Good plot line too.

This book was soooooo much better than 'So Not Meant To Be'. Even JP was better in this book than his own.Lia and Breaker are long time best friends, scrabble enthusiasts and neighbours. Both are happy with their friendship until Lia becomes engaged to her long-term partner. Suddenly Breaker realises that maybe he does like Lia more than a friend but she's getting married in five weeks.These two were the cutest and I think Breaker may be my favourite brother. He was nerdy, funny and had the filthiest mouth. The plot was interesting, the chemistry was phenomenal and I really enjoyed their banter.My only issue with this book was how inappropriate Lia was with Breaker whilst still in a relationship e.g. sleeping cuddled up in bed after a fight. Whilst its not cheating, I do think it shows a lack of respect to your current partner, which just felt kinda gross.

I gave a high rating because this was absolutely superb. I would recommend this book to anyone and I am sure they will enjoy it as much as I did. Real happiness.
