Archer was my brother’s best friend. He had been in our lives since before our parents died, he saw us through the wreckage, and he grew up in my brother’s bedroom playing video games. He should have felt like a brother to me. But he never did. New Year’s Eve changed everything.Hell wasn’t pining after your brother’s best friend in secret for years on end. Hell wasn’t wondering if he even noticed … if he even noticed you when you passed him in the hallway at midnight.
No, that wasn’t hell. Hell was knowing how well you fit with someone and not being able to do a damn thing about it. We knew what we were doing. We knew someone would get hurt, but the attraction was too strong.
And we were both too weak.
You can’t keep 2am secrets forever…and when ours crashed, they burned.

I am a sucker for brother’s best friend/forbidden romances…and this one delivers! Sadie is a bartender in Chicago. Sam works for the security company that his best friend, Archer, runs. Sam and Sadie have a rule that they will never date each other’s friends. Up until now…that has never been a problem. There has always been a connection between Sadie and Archer, but they never acted on it…until New Year’s Eve. And once the door was opened…there was no going back.
The story that follows is full of secret rendezvous and stolen kisses. Sadie and Archer know that Sam will not accept their relationship…but they are helpless to stop their own happiness. There were moments of happiness, anger, and despair throughout the book. There were also a lot of other storylines introduced that could (hopefully) be stories in the future. I will definitely be keeping an eye out for them.
2AM Secrets is my first book by M. Piper and all I can say is I want more. From the first chapter, I was hooked and couldn’t put this book down. Archer is Sadie’s twin brother’s best friend and of course, Archer is off-limits but that doesn’t stop these two from having secret feelings for each other. Archer is ready to stake his claim on Sadie, but will one night be enough or are they going to have to sneak around? And we know someone is going to catch them it’s only a matter of time.
WARNING – your reading device may see some smoke, due to some very hot bedroom scenes. This book will have you laughing out loud and rooting for this couple to make it work. I can’t wait to see if there is going to be a second book about Sam and one of Sadie’s friends.
2am Secrets by M. Piper is a brilliant story with strong and interesting characters. This is one of those books where you fall in love with the main characters but you also fall in love with the secondary characters too.
I loved Sadie and Archer. They had that forbidden romance that I am always drawn to and I knew I wanted them to find a way to make things work out.
I really enjoyed this authors writing style as well. It is what initially drew me into the story and caught my attention fully. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and can’t wait to read more from this author.
This book starts out hot and just keeps getting hotter. The chemistry between Sadie and Archer is off the charts. No matter how hard Sadie tries to push Archer away and deny what is between them she just can’t resist him. Sadie has gone through so much and is going through so much and Archer is there for her. This book isn’t just lighthearted read; it really puts you through the ringer of emotions. But it does have a happy ending…and what a happy ending it was! I felt for Sam; would love to see more of him and what happens with him. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves a good brothers friend romance.
I really enjoyed this book. Sadie is one lucky girl. If I had Archer sleeping down the hall from me, I would definitely be keeping secrets at 2am.

A brothers best friend romance must read! Loved the chemistry and sizzle that comes off between Sadie and Archer. The temptation that is Archer comes to life as they invest in such a steamy journey. Loved the storyline and the wonderful characters that you can’t help but cheer for their HEA.
This is my first book by M. Piper, and I absolutely loved everything about it. I love brother’s best friend books, and this author definitely wrote an intriguing one. I was hooked from the very first page.
I love the heroine Sadie, she was an amazing character who really loved her mimi. She wants to be with Archer even though he is her twin brothers best friend, and knows he will be mad about it. She wants to keep it a secret from him.
Archer was my favorite of all the characters in the book. He was dominant in bed, romantic when it counted, and he had so many wonderful qualities.
I love Archer and Sadie as a couple. They have so much passion and chemistry. The sex scenes between them are super hot
I want to know more about the secondary characters
Sam was so damaged and broken from his past. I really hope he gets his own book.
Rory is always there for Sadie, but her life and past are a mystery. I would love to know more about her.
This book had it all: the hot best friend, the broody brother, love, heartbreak, secrets, hot sex scenes, and an intriguing storyline.

2AM Secrets by M. Piper is a first for me by this author and I enjoyed the story very much. This intriguing story had all the right ingredients for a hot and steamy romance, there is the hot best friend of the hot but moody brother, love and loss, heartbreak and heartache, secrets and lies, laughter and hot and sizzling sexy time. I absolutely fell in love with the characters and Ms Piper did a great job on them and with the telling of her story.
Archer has loved her for so long he can’t imagine not having her in his life, but he wants more. Unfortunately, there is one thing standing in his way, his best friend. But doesn’t he deserve to have what he wants?
Sadie is always dancing around the man she has loved her whole life, but it can never be, all because he is her brother’s best friend and that is a definite no go no matter what her heart wants.
I loved it so much I need to have more.

So on New Years Eve things start to change and secrets start to prevail. Can Sadie and Sam take care of a sick family member or will Sam’s behavior cause more issues. Will lies destroy them all. This is a great story of real situations that are extremely moving and a quick read full novel
Who doesn’t love a brother’s best friend kind of love…and all the secrets behind it?
The forbidden fruit of your brother’s best friend…he’s a tantalizing temptation you just can’t avoid. 2AM Secrets ensue.
M. Piper gave us a sneak peak at these two in the Wild and Windy NYE anthology- I know because I was desperate for more! (Not trying to say she wrote it for me but… ) The chemistry between Sadie and Archer is off the charts hot. It’s an electric crackling. You can feel it.
2AM Secrets is a friends to lovers that will warm your heart, heat up your bed, and leave you with a smile whether its 2AM or not!
Eeep! I was beyond excited to get my hands on this book and it so did not disappoint! In true Piper form she brings you the steam and all of the emotions! Just one click! You won’t regret it! 5 amazing stars!!!
2am Secrets by M. Piper
5-Stars
2am Secrets by M. Piper wasn’t excellent and addictive read. It was romantic, funny, and steamy. Brothers best friend falls for sister. I loved it. Archer was amazing in more ways than one and so was Sadie. Sam, the brother definitely had some issues going on. This was a whirlwind story and I loved the amount of love that existed between everyone, including their sweet Mimi. I also have a Mimi and felt a personal connection here. The storyline moved along very well and was organized. Oh, and the ending was amazing. I mean seriously wow and sweet. This was such a fantastic book and it definitely earned its 5-stars. I highly recommend it.
Go read this book right meow!
This is my first book by this author, I loved it and will be looking for more from her for sure. This is a hot, steamy brother’s best friend type of book that once I started it I couldn’t put it down. This is a well written story with characters that pop off the pages. They kept the story engaging and turning pages fast. I loved their chemistry together. Archer is the brother’s best friend and she has always had a crush on him. What will happen when they can’t resist each other? Will hearts get hurt or will they be able to keep their secret? I highly recommend their story, it is a must read.
Brother’s best friend gets me every time! Sadie is hell bent on avoiding Archer! He’s her brother’s best friend and all hell will break loose if he knew they were attracted to each other! Who can resist Archer when he’s got his eyes set on the prize…i.e…Sadie! Nobody can. Archer gets what Archer wants and he has been dying to get his hands (and other things) on Sadie. She vouches it will never happen again though….
I really enjoyed this book. Sadie and Sam are twins who lost their parents at an early age and now take care of their ailing grandmother. Sadie is a bartender and Sam works for his best friend, Archer, who owns a security firm. Archer is off limits to Sadie because he’s Sam’s best friend, but he wants her as much as she wants him. Their relationship takes a turn to lovers on New Year’s Eve, but they can’t tell Sam. Can their happiness get them through the fallout that’s bound to come when Sam finds out?
I really loved the characters. Archer was amazing and would do anything for Sadie. She’s a strong woman who loves her family. The side characters were great too. I’d love to see more of these characters in the future, especially Sam.
I love this trope. There’s something about falling for your brother’s best thing that gets to me. Maybe it’s the love I see through guilt that holds the couple back. I don’t really know but this one really grabbed me from the get go.
