There are more reasons to be apart than to be together. The fight to be together even when all the barriers are against them. I realized that I love a good fight in romance. Because the next time you tell me good-bye, I’ll believe you.” The only thing that started to bug me was the repetitive mention of Fox’s intimacy/insecurity issues. It was exactly what I was in the mood for after reading Reminders Of Him. It wasn’t Coho-level-heavy nor full on romcom, but a little in between.

What surprised me was the emotional depth. They brought out the best in one another and their relationship made butterflies flutter in my stomach. Having read about them in the first book of the series, I already knew I’d love Hannah and Fox. Could Hannah and Fox be any better for one another? Except now she’s walking around in a towel, sleeping right across the hall, and Fox is fantasizing about waking up next to her for the rest of his life and… and… man overboard! He’s fallen for her, hook, line, and sinker.This is the second book in the Bellinger Sisters series and BookTok famous! I liked this one more than It Happened One Summer. Living with his best friend should have been easy. As the line between friendship and flirtation begins to blur, Hannah can't deny she loves everything about Fox, but she refuses to be another notch on his bedpost. Armed with a few tips from Westport’s resident Casanova, Hannah sets out to catch her coworker’s eye… yet the more time she spends with Fox, the more she wants him instead. In fact, she's nursing a hopeless crush on a colleague and Fox is just the person to help with her lackluster love life. She knows he’s a notorious ladies’ man, but they’re definitely just friends. Now, Hannah's in town for work, crashing in Fox’s spare bedroom.

But he likes her too much to risk a fling, so platonic pals it is. She’s immune to his charm and looks, but she seems to enjoy his… personality? And wants to be friends? Bizarre. Everyone knows he’s a guaranteed good time-in bed and out-and that’s exactly how he prefers it. King crab fisherman Fox Thornton has a reputation as a sexy, carefree flirt. In the follow-up to It Happened One Summer, Tessa Bailey delivers another deliciously fun rom-com about a former player who accidentally falls for his best friend while trying to help her land a different man… AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES AND #1 USA TODAY BESTSELLER
