How good are you at keeping a secret?Because I, Juniper Perry, have been keeping a big one.For over a decade, I’ve been crushing on the guy with the easy smile, warm brown eyes, and charismatic charm. He’s all the perfect things that, when you add them up, spell out Man of my dreams.I know that doesn’t sound bad at all, but there’s more to this story...We work together. I’m a lowly intern, and he’s a high-powered executive.He’s my newest neighbor. No joke—he’s temporarily living next door to me.And to top it all off, he’s my best friend’s older brother.I’ve spent what feels like an eternity keeping my crush on him a secret, but recently, I’ve found a way to have him and my anonymity too. A way to chat and flirt and get close to him.My best friend doesn’t know about these Midnight chats.And he doesn’t know I’m the girl he’s talking to night after night.Beau Banks might be completely off-limits, but what happens at Midnight stays between us...
I liked this a lot ... it was fun and I love this trope (best friend's brother). The pacing was good and the use of the app was done really well (communicating via the app). The ending was a bit over the top but ultimately satisfying. Give it a try!!
"Midnight is our latest social media app that we'll be releasing early next year," Marcus Hughes explains, and I quickly pull my phone out of my pocket and start taking diligent notes. I've got a major redemption arc to write for myself if I want to prove I'm anything other than Avery's ditsy friend who can't figure out fucking Zoom filters. "Think of it as an app meant for dating and conversation, but you can stay anonymous while you do it."
