My Brother's Roommate by Kendall Ryan
Release Date: December 1st 2020 by Kendall Ryan
Series: Frisky Business #2
Pages: 300
Genres: Romance, Contemporary
Wolfie Cox is . . . complicated. Terminally sexy, and more importantly, he has an impressive stick lodged so far up his ass, he’s about as emotionally available as a chinchilla. Actually, that might be an insult to the chinchilla community.
So, naturally, I want to ride him like a bicycle.
He thinks I hate him. Mostly because I’ve led him to believe this. It’s easier than admitting the alternative.
And while Wolfie is about as soft and cuddly as a fork, I’m the opposite. A good girl. Reliable. Conscientious. Oh, and completely panicked about an upcoming work conference.
Wolfie’s usually allergic to altruism, so when my brother volun-tells him to help me out by escorting me to said conference where everyone else will have a plus-one . . . I say thanks, but no thanks. Surprisingly, Wolfie is unflinching about this. And that’s the story about how I got stuck in a hotel with my brother’s hot (grouchy) roommate.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
In all seriousness, this isn’t a game to me, and hormones aside, I need to impress my boss this week so the promotion I’ve worked hard for doesn’t get handed to his spineless nephew. But with Wolfie and me sharing a hotel bed, things get confusing quickly.

My Review:
For Penelope Blake, her job is at the top of her priorities and that has left her without any time or desire to date. But it’s when the company that she works for is organizing a weekend retreat that she wishes she could have a date to take with her. Not only will it increase her chances at being seen more serious by her boss, but it will also increase her chances at getting the promotion that she has been eying for some time. When her brother suggests for his roommate and friend, Wolfie to go with her, Penelope is afraid he is going to decline. Yet, he quickly accepts and she couldn’t be happier. It’s the next day at work that she blurts out that she is going to be brining her boyfriend that changes things with her and Wolfie. There is no denying that she has always felt attracted towards Wolfie, but she knows that things can’t get serious between them. It would take a turn of events to brings them closer and as she gets to learn about his past, the more she is risk of losing her heart in the process.
Wolfie Cox co-owns a successful business with his friends and that has kept him busy that he is not interested in having a serious relationship at all. When he agreed to accompany Penelope to the retreat he did it for his roommate, at least that’s what he keeps telling himself. No matter how attracted he is to her, he knows that he won’t be enough for someone like Penelope. But when his attempts at pushing her away keep failing, he is determined to make her see the real him and hope that she accepts him and what he has to offer.
I loved reading this story, it felt different in terms of the characters and storyline. Both of the characters have different reasons for not wanting to be in a relationship and they explore that as they get to know each other more. Wolfie’s past was heartbreaking and we can understand why he feels a certain way about relationships and trust. Penelope is there to help him and be his partner no matter what. Until things change and they’re left with whether or not they can have a future together. I loved their interaction with secondary characters, their friends and her brother. I cannot wait to read more of Penelope’s brother, Connor, in the next book in the series. I loved the ending, it was perfect for them and I would highly recommend reading My Brother’s Roommate if you’re looking for a sweet romance with a twist. :)
