Same Ol' Situation (Burgers and Brew Crüe Book 3) Kindle Edition
I’m about as straitlaced and by the book as they come. They call me Numbers, the man in the office of Burgers and Brew, the restaurant and bar I co-own with my friends. Routine and spreadsheets, that’s how I spend my day. I’m a creature of habit, from the designer clothes to the same girlfriend, I crave the pattern I’ve become dependent on.
Until said girlfriend breaks up with me for the umpteenth time, and I find refuge in a woman who is my exact opposite.
I’m intrigued and completely out of my element, yet that doesn’t stop me from spending time with her. Even if I consider her off-limits, something about her calls to me.
The problem is I just might lose a friend because of it.
BJ
Most of the time, I would never look twice at Isaac Thompson. He’s all suits, ties, and expensive dress shoes, and I’m…well, not. My time is spent at the tattoo studio I work at, day and night, designing badass ink for clients who want the best. I have no room in my life for a relationship, nor do I care for the messes they always create.
Until Isaac finds me stranded on the road, and I end up inviting him inside.
Now, I can’t stop thinking about him. He’s so different from any man I’ve ever known, which is why we decide to keep it casual and fun.
Let’s just hope I can keep feelings out of the arrangement, so I don’t get burned.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2025Another awesome read. This time, it's Numbers, aka Isaac. His on again/off again, girlfriend has decided that they're off again on a big night for Isaac. The brewery's grand opening. Isaac is a little bit peeved, so he gets a little drunk with the help of BJ, Jameson's sister. BJ, tattoo artist extraordinaire never really felt any attraction to her brother's friend until he helped her out after the grand opening. One thing leads to another, and it's a secret friend with bennies situation.
Loved the interactions, well plotted storylines, Lizzie, and all the other friends and loved ones.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2025I thought the story of Isaac and Bj was super cute and definitely had me smiling a lot and laughing at times. The only thing that bothered me was how they got together. It was like the author was stuck and didn’t know how to organically get them together so they just randomly had sex the night of the brewery opening. But after that everything was beautiful. Loved the story just wanted a better beginning.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2025A wonderful opposites-attract and brother’s best friend book! Isaac and BJ were so different yet they complimented each other very well. She brought color to his world and he brought comfort and security to hers. Two unlikely soulmates. Loved it!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2025This was my favorite in the series so far! It was such a sweet story I loved every moment! Can't wait to read the next one!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2022YES! I have been waiting for Isaac to get his HEA and I am so glad he found that with BJ. In previous books he was with Savannah (who totally sucks as a person btw), so I was so happy that he found love with a woman that is the complete opposite of what he pictured for his future. He went with his feelings not his ideals, just wonderful. So true to real life… you can’t help who you fall in love with.
Isaac, aka Numbers, is the straightlaced suit wearing businessman of the Brew Crue. BJ is a sweet, beautifully tattooed artist. Outwardly these two are complete opposites, at heart they are the same. They are looking for true unconditional love and understanding. They both value the same things in life. And their chemistry is off the charts, H.O.T. Watch out for those serious quiet guys, cause if they are anything like Isaac… They are secret bedroom alphas that really know how to work it.
I love this series and I can’t wait to read Jameson’s story WILD RIDE 3/15.
Highlights: Funny old neighbors, marker tattoos, wilderness sexcapades, colorful scrunchies and ponies, super smart older brothers.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2025I have a new respect for burgers!😘 I love this series, and can't wait for more! Ms Lacey is a talented writer😍
- Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2021I’m really loving this series but this is the best book so far IMO. (Although I can’t wait for Jameson’s book!!).
I’ve always liked Isaac but I adored BJ. She was an awesome heroine. I loved the intense attraction these two suddenly felt for one another. They were polar opposites but they were just so good together. I loved how their relationship developed. You could truly feel these two falling in love even though they both said they only wanted something casual. This story was pretty suspenseful for me. I really couldn’t put it down. (Spoilers ahead)
Isaac of course jumps to conclusions and does something stupid without talking to BJ first breaking both of their hearts—and I will say I was really frustrated with him at that point. But once again… it’s Jameson to the rescue with his words of wisdom (God I can’t wait til his book!!). Anyway—I LOVED the ending and the epilogue made me so happy!!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2022He!! Yes I love these two… they hit it out of the park right off the bat. While neither of them were looking for something long term they weren’t ready when it hit the smack dab in the heart. These two fell for one another quick fast and hard but with some miscommunication and some outside dirty work these two were pulled apart but the love they have for one another was strong! I would have to say these two are my favorite couple so far!!! Can’t wait to dive into Jameson’s story next

5.0 out of 5 stars O love Burgers and Brew
I didn't know what to expect from Isaacs book so it really took me by surprise. I think this is my favourite so far I love Beej characters they were just perfect for each other. Nothing to over the top just two people falling in love without realising. Loved it five stars big expectations on the next book i can't wait.

5.0 out of 5 stars Same Old! Same Old! And how awesome it is
Lacey does it again. Each book keeps getting better and better. Not sure who my fave Crüe couple is now.
Like the saying goes "Don't judge the book by its cover" well Isaac and BJ are nothing like their appearances. Isaac may be a straight laced dresser but has a wild sex crazed side to him. And BJ may be tattooed and love wild hair styles but is the most affectionate and loving person. They compliment each other in ways you would never think.
Now let's see what Lacey has in store for Jameson.
- MagsReviewed in the United Kingdom on December 12, 2021
4.0 out of 5 stars 4.5⭐ A delightful opposites attract romance.
Same Ol' Situation the third story in Lacey Blacks wonderfully fun and sexy Burgers and Brew Crüe series serves up a delightful opposites attract romance between plain, hard working, serious numbers guy Isaac and BJ, Jameson's sister a tattoo artist who rocks multiple piercings, colourful hair and tattoos.
And it is a great read, although I did find it a little hard to get into, as before Isaac hasn't been my favourite character. Yet that soon changed as this story developed and he shed the horrible Savannah and started spending time with BJ, who I loved.
Furthermore, there was very little drama, plenty of sexiness, banter and fun moments. Not to mention great secondary characters and I was genuinely sucked in and really rooting for BJ and Isaac to realise how perfect they were for each other.
Would happily recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars Oh numbers.
This book will definitely get your blood racing before you realize what’s happening. My only bone to pick is the detail of Lyns (book 2) birthday being Christmas Eve then again in the spring. If you can look past that and a few other small errors you won’t regret reading it.

5.0 out of 5 stars nice
