About this ebook

She thinks she hates him. He knows he loves her. Sparks fly when they see each other again.

Lizzie Bellamy ran away from her past to live a quiet life in a small town in Upstate New York, but the past catches up with her when her little sister, Della, turns up on her doorstep. Where Lizzie’s pop-star sister goes, Jackson Renic is sure to follow. Renic, the executive who broke up her family, the friend who betrayed her, and the man she shouldn’t have loved anyway.

Jackson Renic’s artists are his life and he hates to see one go off the rails, especially Della Bellamy. She’s his first client and the sister of the woman he’s never been able to forget. Following her to Upstate New York gives him a chance to see Lizzie and finally put things right between them.

Lizzie and Renic both want Della’s life back on track, but a world of old hurt and years of misunderstandings keep tripping them up. Will Rennick be able to convince Lizzie that they have a future when she keeps clinging to the past?

This is a frenemies-to-lovers, small town, second-chance romance. High on the heat and even higher on the swoon.

Ratings and reviews

This book was an absolute delight for me to read. There’s so much chemistry between Lizzie and Renic; it comes out in all their snark and banter. It’s also very clear how much they both love their ‘family’ and will go to the ends of the earth to keep them safe and happy – even it means going to bat against one another. There’s a little bit of a second chance romance feeling about this pair even though they weren’t actually involved in the first place. And since that theme is the equivalent of catnip to me, I was in my glory reading this pair. I loved Lizzie’s mamma bear personality when protecting her sisters, but her martyr complex drove me a whole lot batty. Renic was just about everything book boyfriend fantasies are made of, but he’s still human and just as prone to making monumental communication errors as the rest of us. That flaw made him all the more relatable and lovable. Now that I’ve started to get to know a little bit about the Bellamy family, I want to know everything. I received a complimentary copy of this book through Hidden Gems Books.

This is book one in The Bellamy Sister's Series and it is Lizzie and Renic's story and what a great start to a new series. Lizzie runs her own Inn and enjoys doing parties and weddings and it also keeps her away from her famous sister's and the spotlight and fame that follow her sister's around and all that entails after all it was the glitter, glamour and parties that completely killed her marriage and there is no way that she would ever go back there again but some things have a way of throwing you back into it and that is when her sister Della shows up and throws Lizzie's quiet life into a tailspin. Renic owns Self Evident Records and he loves what he does but when Della decides to walk away from her tour he knows that he will need to convince her to come back even if it means he has to face Lizzie again. Lizzie and Renic have history but it ended so badly that there was no coming back from it but will they be able to work together to help Della get her career back on track and give Lizzie and Renic a second chance of will it force them even more apart only time will tell. This story was a real page turner that I couldn't put down and I can't wait to read the next book in this series. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
