Hope...

Okay, so as usual, you have funny moments, happy moments, and of course sad/tear inducing moments. Julia Kent makes you hurt and then hurt some more, but at first it's from laughing so hard followed by crying your eyes out. (Not from over used contacts either).

This is Liam's story and the love of his past Charlotte's return.
I refuse to spoil things but be on the look out for Esmeralda and Mavis 2.0. Best part is even when your down, Julia Kent makes sure to bring you back up. The last paragraph is all I'm saying.

Once again, guy is a manwhoee while they are broken up for 5 years  but she has been celebite? Can't believe she spent any time with him, let alone slept with him without screaming at the dickhead foe abandoning her when she told him she was pregnant.  I can suspend a lot of reality i  the thr name of fiction, but this was a bridge to  far.

 This is the second book I read in the series. I even love it more and more. Miss Kent has a signature writing that makes every banter, inner dialog ar efun as hell. It is sassy, sarcastic, smart mouth and sexy second chance story. 

I do think that the second chance between Charlotte and Liam, can be dragged a little bit more dramatic instead of insta lust meet at the door. 

The ending is well.... sad with a glimmer of hope. I feel the ending is just left hanging. Not cliff hanger but just.... hanging there.

At the end, I end up loving thia book for its fun banter.

This of all of them had me in tears. This is by far the best one in the series. It had so much emotion a bit of comedy.

Just awful. I started listening to the audiobook by accident... then finished the written format. I didn't get it. Not at all. Liam was just ridiculous ( in a very bad way ) as a character. Charlotte was... a Mary-Sue at best. Maybe I shouldn't have bothered finishing it... but I was hoping for some redemption... there was none.

I truly hated the whole him being such a lech. The waitress/nipple thing set the tone for me. Yuck.

This book was going to be 2 stars then the snake and chicken incident happened and that's disgusting so it's half a star. Felt like I've been trying to read this for weeks. So boring. The main characters are complete and utter fucking morons and my head nearly exploded each time they didn't just sit down and have a fucking conversation.

I despise it when authors make the female not have sex the entirety of the time that the love interests are apart (in terms of the love interests being previously together). If a guy did that to me I would certainly not be pining for five years and not attempting to move on with my life. Such bullshit. And for him to not even tell her that he's infertile? Shit boyfriend and deserves fuck all. Obviously if it had been a new relationship sure but when it gets serious you tell your partner that kind of information.

For fuck sake.
