 📖 I received a gifted e-book ARC. The following is my honest review✍🏻

Dream Girl Drama is a dual-POV forbidden romance. Sig and Chloe meet by chance, or date, and fall hard and fast for each other. Unfortunately, that same night they learn that their parents are engaged, making them future step-siblings and a relationship off-limits. They can’t stay out of each other’s lives though, quickly becoming best friends and forever toeing the line. Sig won’t stop until he finds a solution and a way to make his dream girl his wife! I really loved this one, this series just keeps getting better and better! I was wary of the taboo nature of their future relationship but liked the way it was handled. I loved Chloe’s chaotic energy and how she grew into herself, and I adored Sig. This was a fantastic first read for 2025!

When professional hockey player Sig Gauthier’s car breaks down and his phone dies, he treks into a posh private country club to call a tow truck, where he encounters the alluring Chloe Clifford, the manic pixie dream girl who captivates him immediately with her sense of adventure and penchant for stealing champagne.

Sparks fly during a moonlight kiss and the enamored pair can’t wait to see each other again, but when Sig finally arrives to meet his dad’s new girlfriend over dinner, Chloe is confusingly also there. Turns out the girlfriend is Chloe’s mother. Oh, and they’re engaged.

Sig’s dream girl is his future stepsister.

Though the pair is now wary of being involved romantically, Chloe, a sheltered harp prodigy, yearns to escape her controlling mother. Sig promises to teach her the ins and outs of independence in Boston—but not inside his bedroom. They both know there can never be more than friendship between a famous hockey player and his high-society, soon-to-be stepsister. But keeping their relationship platonic grows harder amid the developing family drama, especially knowing they were meant for so much more…
