Note to Self –Do NOT bang your best guy friend in the limo on the way to the swanky Vegas hotel. I give myself very good advice. Too bad I suck at taking it. If only Colin and I hadn’t drunk so much whiskey, if only I’d kept that red bikini in my suitcase, if only his evil ex-girlfriend hadn’t come sniffing around making me feel territorial and protective. Not that my bad boy rock star best … that my bad boy rock star best friend is any help. Walking around looking ridiculously sexy, telling me I’m perfect in that panty-melting voice of his when we both swore we’d never do anything to put our friendship at risk. And Colin never breaks a promise.
But then, he has no idea I’ve secretly been in love with him for years.
I guess I should just enjoy the ride, but I can’t stop thinking about what happens when this vacation ends and I head home alone, nursing one hell of a bangover…
The Bangover is a red-hot, laugh out loud rom-com featuring two best friends on a collision course with Vegas-flavored disaster–and each other. It stands alone. No cheating or cliffhangers.

I love a great best friends to lovers story. This one also had some mystery and suspense thrown in that I wasn’t expecting. Fun read.
Another winner by Lili Valente. I so enjoyed this one. I love a good friends to lovers story. You can instantly feel the ease Colin and Kirby have one another because of their history and friendship. I laughed quite often while reading this one. Kirby has some quirks and she will be first one to say she’s a little weird, but Colin accepts all those parts of her. I love that Kirby is a cat lady and that Murder has such a big part of the book. I loved that he goes on vacation too. That Colin lets that happen gives him major swoon points from me. Though this book is very playful and light there are also that made me gasp and hold on to my seat. Plus it delivers on the heat and boy do these two of the burning out chemistry. It’s a book that’s very hard to put down. The story sucks you right in. I felt the connection between characters and that got me invested in their story. I loved the epilogue. It was the cherry on top to this book!
This new romantic comedy from Lili Valente is awesoome! A LOL funny and sexy friends-to-lovers book that just so happens to hit my weakness rock-star button. So good!
Lili’s banter always keeps me smiling!
Lili Valente writes some truly entertaining romantic comedies, and I’ve enjoyed each one that I’ve picked up. From her hockey romcoms to her small towns romances, she consistently turns out enjoyable stories rooted in fun and original plots with sweet, sexy romances.
The Bangover is a best-friends-to-lovers romance between Colin, a rock star, and Kirby, a horror novelist. Colin and Kirby head off to Vegas on a temporary friends-with-benefits sex-cation, complete with the heroine’s cat, Murder, in tow. As a series of hilariously unfortunate events begins to unfold, pandemonium, passion and pondering of possibilities ensue as someone—literally—tries to get away with Murder.
An easy-reading, light and breezy, suspenseful romantic comedy, The Bangover was low on the angst but loaded with laugh-out-loud humor and fanning-my-cheeks heat. Four smooches from me for Lili Valente’s The Bangover!

Colin is a bad boy rock star, and his best friend Kirby is a bestselling horror story author, and when in Vegas these two decide to change their relationship status to friends with benefits, which leads to hilarious and crazy shenanigans. This is a beautifully written laugh-out-loud romantic comedy, which has some mystery, intrigue, suspense, twists, and emotion which all makes this a sexy and captivating page turner, which I highly recommend for all readers. Brilliant work Lili!!
A fun, funny, steamy friends to lovers story. Kirby is such a strong, quirky heroine. She and Colin have such strong history of friendship and have supported each other since they were kids. Their bond and chemistry is really strong. Their spontaneous trip to Las Vegas had so many twists and turns that I didn’t expect, it was really hard to put down.
Aww, the best friends to lovers trope. It’s a winner every time! Add in the “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas” trope and it’s even better. Does it get off the wall crazy? You bet. It’s all fun and games until the exes show up!
Colin and Kirby, aka Larry, have been best friends since their early high school years. Colin went on to become the lead singer for a rock band and Kirby is a successful horror story author who fashions her creepy clown character on Colin’s ex. Gotta love it! Now, they are between relationships and neither is dating anyone. While Kirby realized a long time ago that she loved Colin more than just her BFF, Colin has not had his revelation yet. One thing leads to another and before you know it they are in Vegas where all sorts of bizarre things begin to happen.
The Bangover is a quick, fun, entertaining, and sometimes hilarious story. It’s a bit bizarre and not really realistic, but then I don’t think it’s supposed to be. I have a feeling this is going to be a good series whenever I’m in the mood for escaping reality.
The couple are smoking hot. They have great chemistry. The outside forces are bizarre and strange. It end in a happy ending, well for them anyway. Just strange.
Could not put it down. Good story.
Friends to lovers storyline, fun read.
Good book but dumb title. Why not name it after the song My Only One from the book?
The Bang Over is a fun escape from reality.
Loved the book and how the story turned out
Fairly enjoyable book. Some parts were a bit of a stretch. But al in all, a fun read.
This book had a little bit of everything and kept the story moving right along. Best friends to friends with benefits, suspense, witty, and so much more. First time reading this author…will have to read more.
