Title: The Rules of Dating My Best Friend’s Sister
Authors: Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 2, 2023
BLURB
From New York Times bestselling authors Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward comes a new standalone romance.
Rule number one for dating your best friend’s sister: Don’t.
Just don’t do it.
Especially when your best friend is dead and the last thing he made you promise him was that you’d keep an eye on his little sister, but not too good of an eye.
As a musician whose longest committed relationship was six weeks, I, Holden Catalano, was the last guy on Earth who should’ve been messing around with Laney Ellison.
The super smart girl whom I affectionately dubbed Lala since childhood was always off limits.
Though that didn’t stop me from thinking about her over the years, especially those times when the two of us would sneak out onto the roof and talk for hours after my buddy fell asleep. It was innocent, but I’d always held a torch for her.
After Ryan passed away, I vowed to always protect Lala. That included protecting her—from me.
Now all grown up and a scientist, Lala needed a place to stay when she accepted a temporary research position in New York. I thought I did the right thing by offering her an apartment in the building I co-owned with my three friends.
Except having her close by reignited all of those old feelings.
And things started to get complicated.
Especially since she was engaged.
And especially since, lately, I’d noticed something more in her eyes. Desire.
Lala didn’t exactly look at me like the platonic brother figure I was trying so desperately to be, even though I wanted her more than I’d ever wanted anything.
Yet, I was being good—on my very best behavior.
But you know what they say…all good things must come to an end, right?

Lisa Kane's 4 Star Review
If you've read the first book in The Law of Opposites Attract series, we witnessed the steamy dance between Lala and Holden at Colby and Billie's wedding. We know there is something there, but Holden is a musician who enjoys playing on the stage and off and Lala is a scientist engaged to a colleague. Very different personalities, but united in their shared grief at the death of Lala's brother, Ryan.
Holden has always been attracted to Lala but he was warned years ago by Ryan that Lala is off limits. As tempted as he's been, he's never given in to his feelings. But now Lala needs a place to stay and Holden offers her the empty apartment next to his. Maybe not the best idea for trying not to give in to his impulses. Lala isn't immune by any means, but thinks Warren her fiance, is a safe choice. Lala has her life mapped out in front of her, she's always followed the sensible path and thinks Holden is not the type to settle down.
But when circumstances keep putting these two together, it's awfully difficult to ignore what they both are feeling. The question is, will those feelings prove to be nothing more than a mistake or is it the real thing?
The Rules of Dating My Best Friend's Sister had just the right balance of humor and seriousness. There are so many poignant memories these characters have shared with Ryan, Lala's brother. He may be gone, but he will never be forgotten. There just may be a little divine intervention going on in this story. A love as strong as these characters shared with Ryan remains long after he is physically no longer with them.
