Borrowing My Bestie's Brothers

De: Sam Hall

Narrado por: Sofia Lette, Dorje Swallow

What do you do when your mother is determined to get you married?

Create not one… not two… but three pretend boyfriends.

It was supposed to be a lie so ridiculous she'd never bother me again.

I never expected Mother Dearest to call my bluff and insist on meeting them.

Luckily, my bestie is ready to help and volunteers her three gorgeous brothers for the role of fake boyfriend.

Brock is my boss, his grumpiness only outstripped by his smouldering good looks.

Hunter is a part-time surfwear model and full-time hottie.

And Hayden? He's Hunter's identical twin, pretty on the outside, scary deep on the inside.

But what happens when you find out you're the only one who's been faking it?

There's a reason why the chemistry between us is so convincing.

I now know exactly why these guys were so keen to help out, and it turns out my mother isn't the only one being fooled.

This is a contemporary reverse harem standalone romance where the girl doesn't have to choose.

🦸🏼‍♀️ Heroine Spotlight: Jamie

Jamie is twenty-eight, fiercely independent, and thriving as a full-time auto mechanic in a male-dominated field. She’s got grease under her nails, pride in her work, and zero interest in conforming to anyone’s expectations—especially her mother’s. But when Mom starts pushing hard for grandbabies and demands to meet Jamie’s supposed trio of boyfriends, Jamie’s harmless fib spirals into a full-blown romantic charade. With no actual boyfriends to present, she’s forced to improvise… fast.

🧑🏻‍🔧 Hero Spotlight: Brock, Hunter, and Hayden

Enter the three brothers who are about to turn Jamie’s life upside down:

• Brock: Jamie’s boss and Millie’s protective older brother. Initially reluctant to hire her, Brock quickly saw Jamie’s potential and gave her a full-time spot in his garage. He’s the grounded, brooding type with a soft spot for Jamie that’s been simmering for years.
• Hayden & Hunter: Brock’s identical twin brothers, both ex-models with sun-kissed charm and a reputation for fleeting flings. Hayden, however, has harbored real feelings for Jamie since high school—and now sees his chance to finally act on them.

🔥 Plot Pulse

Millie, Jamie’s best friend and the brothers’ sister, orchestrates the ultimate fake-dating scheme: her three brothers will pose as Jamie’s boyfriends for a week. What starts as a comedic cover-up quickly turns emotionally tangled. Hayden’s long-standing crush resurfaces, Brock’s protective instincts deepen, and even Hunter—usually the wildcard—finds himself drawn into the mix. The brothers have never shared a girlfriend before, and the polyamorous setup challenges their boundaries, desires, and loyalties.

💘 What Hit Home

• The slow-burn attraction: The guys had feelings for Jamie long before she considered them romantically, which added depth and sincerity to the romance.
• The emotional payoff: Jamie’s strained relationship with her mother hits a powerful turning point when her brother finally sees the truth and defends her—an unforgettable moment of validation.
• The fresh dynamic: Watching the brothers navigate a polyamorous relationship for the first time felt raw, real, and surprisingly tender.

😬 Room to Grow

• Jamie’s aversion to commitment and her resistance to traditional life goals (marriage, kids) felt a bit one-note at times. Her tomboy persona was authentic, but her emotional walls could’ve used more nuance or backstory.
