I received an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review. Review and release day blitz can be found on *Milky Way of Books*

The final installment of this series had romance, humor and deeper secrets. Rachel van Dyke delivered for the holidays the best gift for her readers as she wrote about the other heroes and friends of Knox. I also enjoyed Jillian's and Finn's story.

Their chemistry was phenomenal and the hardships they had to get through were many both emotional and practical.

Gah. So good. So well written and so too short. I wanted more from these two. Their banter and chemistry was awesome. Love Ms. Van Dyken's work.

Finn is the last "Pleasure Pony" to finally make it downtown working at Wingmen, Inc. What happens when he gets paired up with the office manager to test the new Wingman App before it's release? This book has lots of humor, so many of Rachel's favorite characters, such as Grandma Nadine (one of my favorite characters), Ian, Lex, Knox, Leo and Slater. The boy are all back together and wreaking havoc on Finn and Jill. Jill has known and had a crush on Finn since college, but since he was a "pleasure pony" he really didn't pay attention to the opposite sex although he's now got his sites on Jill. I would love PassionFlix to finish the The MatchMaker's replacement so we can get these books made into movies too. I enjoyed the chemistry between Finn and Jill and the book just flowed well. I wish we would have received an extended epilogue, but that's just me being greedy. If you are looking for a book with hot chemistry, laughter, a woman who doesn't fall down at a guys feet, a guy doing everything he can to get his girl and more humor this book is for you!

Oh, this final book in the Bro Code Series is on fire! All hail the curvy gal and the evilness of shapewear!

This is Finn story and what a heckuva surprise did Mr. Titus have! "When a woman is beautiful, she should be told over and over again until even she believes it..."  Good gracious, Ms. Van Dkyen you sure know how to make a gal swoon!! Finn is funny, sweet and I love that he goes after what he wants.  Even if it's with blinders on, and he sometimes loses the forest through the trees, he still knows what he wants.

Oh, Jillian, this is a girl after my own heart!  She is a bit adorkable, a bit shy and a whole lotta tempest in a teacup!  She is fighting against herself with her feelings for Finn.  I can totally relate to her fears! She has some real-world issues in front of her and some issues of the heart that scares her silly.  

I am so in flove, that's right flove, this series from Ms. Van Dyken, you will too!

Jillian and Finn are perfect together!
Finn was definitely my favorite of the four Pleasure Ponies and I couldn’t wait for his book, I just knew his woman would be perfect for him! They had crazy chemistry and feelings from the start. Watching them try to deny how they felt for each other was equal parts hilarious and frustrating! You get to see all of your favorite characters from each book from the series and they each play a special part in Finn and Jillian’s story. If you’ve read the entire series then you know how much they love to meddle in each other’s lives. This was their best meddling yet!

If you’re looking for a book that’s witty, sexy, hilarious, and cute as all get out, look no further!

Finn and Jillian are tasked to work together in order to test the new matchmaking app. So, they have to go to double dates with other people. Things are heating up when they are enjoying more the company of each other than their date's.

Finn was a total surprise, he is so very thoughtful and kind. Jillian is the girl you want as a friend, she has great sense of humor.

As for their friends, they are the perfect addition to the story, they are always there for them to help them. I enjoyed so much this book.

*I received an arc and this is my honest opinion.

I need more than five stars! I didn't think I could pick a fave from the Pleasure Ponies before reading this book, but I was wrong! This book brings back some of my favorite characters from other series, plus gives us Jill. Jill is one of the best heroines ever. And Finn, well Finn is so much more than his family name and those abs! Just so much love for this awesome book!

Not for me. Too much not like other girls and guys, so many tiny yikes moments that it felt like any minute there would be a big yikes and life is too short

What a book!!
Got to say I loved this series. Would be lying if I said I wasn’t hoping for Rachel to write a book about all of these guys lives after this series. Could be an idea

The final book did NOT disappoint. Finn and Jilly are so great. Finn desperately needed someone who was strong willed and passionate to and Jill needed someone who would love her and help her see her beautiful amazing side. This book had me laughing out loud, the banter with all the guys is my favorite part.
