Bad Fiancé by Elise Faber

 

3 Star

Seraphina is gorgeous and so sweet.  At least that is what everyone expects from her.  She’s trying to sell a house to billionaire Tate instead she gets propositioned to be his fake fiancé to help him bring an investor in.

This frustrated me so much.  Tate literally fell in love with the look of Sera.  Eventually he learns who she is but for most of the book, it’s all about her looks.  This is something she was against but she fell for him anyways, so I was frustrated with this book from the beginning. Not to mention the fact that friends she has had her entire life apparently don’t know who she is.  Why are you still friends with them if they don’t know you?  Overall, I was frustrated with this book.

Bad Divorce by Elise Faber

 

3 Star

Bec Darden is a high-powered attorney.  She never planned on seeing her ex-husband Luke again.  The problem they aren’t technically divorced.  It isn’t discovered until he was looking for a new license to marry his current girlfriend.  He’s now decided he wants her back and will do whatever he can to win her over.

I LOVE Bec and this really disappointed me.  Luke was literally about to marry someone else and all of sudden decides well I am still married so I guess I love her soooo much I must go win her over.  He was a major ass and I just never really got past his reason for leaving the first time or why he now decided to get her back.  Writing was good and it was cute to see what he would do to win her back but not a fan.

Bad Hook Up by Elise Faber

 

3 Star

Rachel never thought she would hook up with someone, but she did.  Then she thought she would never see him again but then her boss got married and she found out her boss’ new husband’s assistant is the man she hooked up with.  Sebastian felt bad about not leaving a number and leaving her, but he had work to do.  When they meet back up, they can’t stay away from each other.  However, Rachel is hiding something.  Will Sebastian be able to break through her defenses and win her over?

This one was ok.  The writing was there but I was not a huge fan of Rachel or Sebastian.  I also got frustrated with how Rachel’s ex was handled.  Sebastian knew she was being stalked and had been in an abusive relationship and yet she doesn’t respond to his messages for a while, and it doesn’t click he should be worried…Really? Overall, it was ok and it fit with the series but it wasn’t one of my favorites.

Bad Husband by Elise Faber

 

4 Star

Heather is tough as nails CEO of RoboTech.  She is too busy for love but she wants it.  When she helps her friends elope she goes out drinking and wakes up married to Clay Steele.  Will they stay married and make it work?

I really enjoyed reading this.  I liked both Heather and Clay.  They weren't sure if they would stay together or not and you can see the struggle of trying to balance two very busy schedules.  The mess up was amusing and I do like the fact that there wasn't a big blow up.  Really good addition to the series.

Bad Break up by Elise Faber

3 Star

Cecelia is finally getting to travel after years of work and taking care of others.  What she wasn’t planning on was having her ex be her seat mate. She hasn’t seen Collin since he broke her heart, and she doesn’t want to see him now.  Collin thought it was fate he ended up on the plane next to the one woman he loved.  He is determined to win her back after leaving her not once but twice.  Will he be able to win her over?

The writing was like all her other books, but this book just didn't work well for me. I was confused as to what broke them up the first and second time.  You do find out some of what broke them up the second time but I was still left confused. Cecelia's parents felt like an after thought.  She gets some random call out of the blue from her mom and that's all we get.  One of the big reasons for there break up was Colin’s family and you only really get the one scene with them as well.  Overall the book left me wanting.

Bad Night Stand Elise Faber

 

4 Star

Abby is out for the night with her friend Seraphin when she is hit on by some guy. She assumes he is just trying to get with her friend but Jordan wants her. She takes him home and has the worst one-night stand ever. When Jordan books it right after his completion without any satisfaction for her she takes the hit and plans to forget him. What she doesn't plan for is a failed IUD and an accidental pregnancy. What happens next is a whole lot of miscommunications. Will Jordan find away to make it up to Abby?

I enjoyed this book.  I wanted to kill Jordan several times over but when you get his whole history you can kind of see why he behaved the way he did. Abby also made him work for it. There was no insta forgiveness he had to prove himself to her.  I also liked the interplay between Abby and her friends and I can't wait to get to their stories. Overall a good start to a new series.

Good Guy by Kate Meader

 

2.5 Star

Former special forces veteran, Levi Hunt is finally making his pro-hockey debut. He doesn't want to discuss his service and just wants to play. Jordan Cooke is trying to get her reporter career off the ground. One of her ins is the newest Chicago Rebels was the former teammate of her husband. The problem with this in is the last time they met was the day her husband was buried and they showed a kiss. Will she be able to ignore the chemistry and get the story she needs?

I skipped vast parts of this book and still understand the book. I've read way better sports books than this one and I didn't particularly like Levi or Jordan. First you just lose your husband and are kissing another guy and in reverse your BFF just died and you’re kissing his wife. WTF that's a hard pass for me.  Then when a story breaks Levi is all about believing Jordan is willing to sleep her way to a big break.  Second there is a lot of sexism in the book Jordan has to deal with and it's never really addressed. Like a coworker sending dick pics and Jordan just puts up with it through the entire book. Overall I would give this book a pass.
