I would do anything for my best friend's sister—except tell her how I really feel.

RobI’ve been secretly in love with my best friend’s younger sister for years. And does she have a clue? Nope.Maybe I would’ve made a move if she ever hinted she felt anything for me besides platonic friendship. But she hasn’t. And in addition to being smart, funny, and beautiful, she’s another thing—loyal to her on-again off-again jerk-extraordinaire boyfriend.

Only this time when they break up, things seem different. Do I risk our friendship by telling her how I feel, or is this one secret best kept?

KelseyWhen my boyfriend of eight years dumps me for another woman, my take-charge coworker convinces me it’s time for me to get back out there.But searching for the perfect man in the online dating world is no picnic. Especially when I have no clue who I am or what I want.And most confusing of all? Circumstances keep throwing me together with my brother’s longtime best friend, and suddenly, I’m feeling things for him I have no business feeling. As if that wasn’t complicated enough, we also work together—a recipe for disaster.

But what if the perfect guy is the one who’s been there all along?

A standalone friends-to-lovers sweet romantic comedy featuring a he-falls-first workplace romance with laugh-out-loud moments and swoony kisses without any explicit content!

Perfect After All by Cece Louise has Melissa’s younger sister Kelsey finding her love match.

Can Rob finally convince Kelsey he will be a better match than Bryce?

Robert Rutiger

Rob has been in Kesley’s life for as long as the two can remember, and he doesn’t want to screw things up and hurt this friendship. Especially with Caleb since he was sure that Caleb wouldn’t have wanted him to be dating his younger sister. We met Rob in the last book working for Fulton Advertising as one of their IT personnel, and he got Kelsey a job there as well for when she was done with college. Rob is such a sweet guy who wants what is best for all three of the Ellis siblings, as they became his family over the many years of him hanging out with Caleb at their house. I love how their easy banter from the first book traversed over to this one and that Rob is still just that sweet guy that would do anything for the Ellis siblings. Except maybe commit murder.

Kelsey Ellis

Kelsey Ellis is still the goofy girl who loves to hang out with her siblings and enjoy life, especially taco night at their favorite restaurant in Halften. The one difference between the two is that Kelsey is now employed at Fulton Advertising and, for the first time in her life, not waiting for Bryce to come back into her life. She is, but she is also ready to move on. Or at least try to move on. I love how Kelsey embraces many new things within this book that helps her out for the better, including dealing with Bryce in her unique way.

I love the slow-burn romance that Rob and Kelsey had. Even though for Rob, it was like he knew that he wanted Kelsey romantically. These two are quite a pair, and I love how they complement each other in more ways than just being goofy together and cracking jokes at Caleb’s expense. Except it’s in the way where you know that their love will last a while once they realize it.

Five Stars

Perfect After All by Cece Louise has the best of many worlds in that it’s not only a slow-burn, but also boy falls for girl first, and a work romance all in one book. It also has different things that go for it as well, and I loved every minute of reading this book. I loved how everything fell into place once it all came down to it. The one thing I can’t wait to see evolve is Caleb and Victoria’s story.

I am giving Perfect After All by Cece Louise five stars and recommending it to anyone who loves a good sweet romantic comedy book.
