Catching Kye: A Brother's Best Friend Romance (Florida East University Book 3) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 1,067 ratings

Everyone always says the best way to get over someone is to get under somebody else. Well, I guess I’ve never been one to believe it. Cheated on by my football-star boyfriend and betrayed by my closest friend, I’m not looking for yet another chance to get hurt.

Kye Collins isn’t just a guy. He’s
the guy. A star on a D1 football team. The owner of a panty-melting smile and abs that’ll have you fanning yourself and tingling in places you shouldn’t. Oh … and he’s my brother’s best friend.

When he convinces me to hang out with him, I warily take him up on his offer. After all, as long as I keep my guard up, I won’t get hurt. Besides, a friendship between a male and a female can work, right?

What starts off as an innocent alliance becomes dicey when he suggests we fake date. It seems like a good plan. A solid scheme to help him get his mom off his back while also making my ex mad. If I can hurt the guy who caused me pain and make the mean girls at school jealous, that’s a double win. Plus, hanging out with Kye Collins is fun.

One kiss—that’s all it takes. A kiss only meant for the eyes of those who hurt me. A kiss that’s supposed to be a big F you to those devils lurking in the shadows, watching my every move. But that same kiss makes me come alive in a way I never have. Makes it impossible for me to ignore that feelings I have whenever he is around. And it forever changes the relationship between Kye and me.

Sometimes, tragedies bring people closer together, but in our case, it pulls us apart. But when Kye runs, I’m not far behind, ready to catch him.

This is the third and final book in the Florida East University series. This is Kye's book.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Hannah Gray spends her days in vacationland, living in a small, quaint town on the coast of Maine. She is an avid reader of contemporary romance and is always in competition with herself to read more books every year.

During the day, she loves on her three perfect-to-her daughters and tries to be the best mom she can be. But once she tucks them in at night—okay, scratch that. Once they fall asleep next to her in her bed—because their bedrooms apparently have monsters in them—she dives into her own fantasy world, staying awake well into the late-night hours, typing away stories about her characters. As much as she loves being a wife and mom—and she certainly does love it—reading and writing are her outlet, giving her a place to travel far away while still physically being with her family.

She married her better half in 2013, and he’s been putting up with her craziness every day since. As her anchor, he’s her one constant in this insane, forever-changing world.

    RATING : ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨
    SPICE: 🔥🔥🔥

    I love this book! I’m a huge fan of Hannah’s writing (and when I say huge, I mean I will follow her anywhere and own everything she has written) but there is something about Kye and Winter that has me in a chokehold.

    This isn’t my first or even second time reading this book, but their story just lives rent free in my head.

    I love that this isn’t just about love and spiciness, but also about forgiveness and showing up for someone you love when they are at their lowest. Winter and Kye are made for each other, and even though they started off as friends, the chemistry and heat between them was easy to see from the beginning. I love these Florida East boys, but Kye will forever be my favorite!

    If you like friends to lovers, fake dating. Brother’s best friend and a little side of emotional gut wrenching, then you need to read this one! It’s well paced, heartfelt and absolutely a captivating story from beginning to end. I laughed, I cried and I fell in love with Winter and Kye.

    Ok here we go. Now I skipped book 2, don't judge, & I went back to see my rating on book 1 & I only gave 4 stars. So I wasn't sure why I skipped book 2 but for whatever reason I did. I was a little unsure of how this book was gonna go but my gut said to read this one & I'm so unbelievably happy I did! This book was so so so freaking good! Their friends turned lovers story was just beautiful & cheesy but so true. I don't know if that makes sense but it does to me. You truly fall for him. How could you not, when he's there building her up & not letting her listen to the haters! Ugh seriously this book is just so worth it, there's no way I can put into words how worth it, it really is! Gonna probably take me a few days to recover from this but it's definitely worth it! On to the next!

    Brothers best friend

    - I was graciously given this book as an ARC

    - Catching Kye was the 3rd book of the Florida East University series. Winter and Kye had be at a choke hold. They way Kye was there as Winter friend. But we always know how these type of friendships ends. To find out more about Kyes childhood left me in heartache i felt so bad for him. To watch how both winter and kye needed each other was great.

    Oh Kye.. this man will melt the ice around your heart! I started falling for Kye in book two and I truly fell hard for him in this one! Gosh! The author did a PHENOMENAL job at coming up with the best story for Kye and Winter. I absolutely adored them! I loved them as a character and as individuals. Gray really took her time to plan out their stories and it shows. The chemistry and romance was definitely there, but there could've been a little more conflict/drama with Winters bullies in my opinion. Overall a wonderful book! 4.5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐

    All of Hannah’s books have been amazing but add fake dating and brother’s best friend tropes and it’s obviously going to be a 5 star read for me. Kye and Winter are the definition of falling in love with your best friend. Each teaches the other how they are so much more than what they believe of themselves and help each other get through the lowest moments of their lives. This one was a bit of a slow burn because of the forbidden romance aspect as well, but it was a great end to the series.

    When I say I was captivated by this story.. I was hooked. To the point that I may have given up sleep this weekend and had to secretly cry into my pillow when we hit a certain scene so I wouldn’t wake up the hubby.

    I was itching to get my hands on this especially with the little teasers that we got in Stealing Bama.

    Winter has gone through the ringer. She lost her dad too soon and is now being terrorized by her ex boyfriend. She decides to keep it a secret and deal with it herself but she wasn’t expecting Kye.

    Her brothers best friend.

    Kye is dealing with his own personal issues but once he spends some time with Winter, he can’t deny the connection that is there. He wants to be the one she turns too when things get hard but just as a friend.

    They come up with a plan, they are going to fake date in hopes to stop Winter’s bullying and help ease Kye’s moms mind. What starts off as fake, slowly turns into move. Something they just can’t deny.

    This book personally put me through the ringer. The journey these two characters went through and the grief that is felt, man did it make me cry.

    While it hurt, I have to point out that I love the fact that the “hurt” came a lot earlier in this book. We were able to enjoy an insight to their relationship after and how they continued to help each other strive for their dreams.

    This trilogy was amazing and I highly recommend it. Now the countdown is on for her newest trilogy.. can’t WAIT for Cams book.

    This college football romance had me hooked from the beginning.
    The chemistry between the FMC and MMC was explosive.
    The push and pull of their ‘friendship’ were page-turning.
    Both reeling from their pasts, the way they helped each other deal with it was heartfelt.
    If you love sports romance, college romance, and brother's best friend trope, you need to read this.

    This whole series had me in tears more than once and this third book was no different.
    This author can make you feel everything the characters are going through and man so they go through a lot.
    I laughed, I cried, I laughed and cried some more. Kye had a lot of demons to get through to find the love of his life and she had her own things to go through as well. They are meant to be.

    I’m used to reading college romance and class myself a connoisseur of such tropes lol this was an ok read. I found myself skipping a lot of the book to get to the point and it was far too angsty for me. As someone who goes by reviews of a book (and the reviews are generally spot on) I found this a decent 5/10.
