While updating a security system in an exclusive sex club Asher sees Francie, his sister’s best friend, in one of the voyeur rooms. Francie is there for research for her next book but when Asher sees she is being watched by another man he immediately steps in and gets her out of there.
When Francie temporarily moves to Liberty Island to finish her book Asher is determined to stay away from her, but with their explosive chemistry it doesn’t take long for them to become involved in a steamy secret relationship, providing the perfect inspiration for the spicy romantasy novel Francie is working on.
When a compromising situation arises Asher tries to protect Francie by resolving the issue himself while keeping it a secret from her. Secrets have a way of not staying secret for long and when it all comes crashing down will Francie forgive Asher?
I loved the connection between Asher and Francie and the way it grew as they opened themselves up to each other. Francie was strong and independent and wanted a partner, not someone who would make decisions on her behalf. Asher was overprotective and broody and I really felt for him when he let down his guard and showed his vulnerable side.
I completely understand Francie’s need for independence and why she kept her profession as a romance author a secret from her older—and somewhat overprotective—brothers, however it was nice to see them support her once they found out the truth.
The banter in this book was hilarious, particularly the sibling group chat, and the chemistry between Asher and Francie was amazing!
The pacing of In Case You Didn’t Know was perfect, the secondary characters were interesting and added depth to the story and the betrayals were unexpected.
This was a humorous and heartfelt read that I thoroughly enjoyed.

Here’s the synopsis
I write steamy romance novels for a living. In secret. And only the two people closest to me in the world know the truth…
Until I bump into my best friend’s grumpy, gorgeous, tech‑billionaire older brother at an exclusive forbidden club.
Yes, I was only there for research. No, he doesn’t believe me.
And now Asher Fitzgerald’s looking at me like I’m not just his sister’s friend, but his next obsession.
When a leak in my apartment and a crisis in his company force us to spend time together in his small town, sparks turn into a blazing, no‑strings entanglement.
One that’s forbidden, secret, and completely addictive.
If my best friend finds out I’m sleeping with her brother, she’ll probably kill me. And if Asher finds out he’s the inspiration for my dangerously possessive book hero… he might just get there first.
The more nights we spend tangled together, the harder it is to imagine walking away.
But secrets have a way of coming out.
And when they do, loving him might be the best chapter of my life… but it could also be the one that breaks me.
