Coy Mason is a jerk.

If there is one truth that Bellamy Davenport knows, it’s that. Hands-down. (Well, that and the fact that she didn’t mean to hurt him. Physically. Coy can’t be hurt emotionally because he doesn’t have a heart.)

Coy is not just the small-town, literal boy-next-door. He’s a heartbreaking, womanizing, mischief-making (and delicious) man and was all of those things well before he became a hot-shot country music sensation.

He’s a dream standing in her doorway with no shirt, messy hair, and a ‘Do you wanna?’ grin. But he’s also a nightmare for her heart and she knows it.

Their enemies-to-lovers relationship always ends the same way—heavy on the enemies, light on the lovers.

So why is she still standing there?
MY REVIEW
Coy is home for a visit and this time Bellamy is unable to avoid the man who broke his promise to always be there when she needed him. The man who was her friend, then her lover, then her enemy, is still her enemy. But her heart and her body cannot seem to remember she hates him, so when he seems persistent in figuring out why the snark she spits at him is particularly venomous, she's not sure if she can withstand the temptation he offers.
Coy genuinely does not know why Bells seems to hate him so much. Sure they might have had a little thing once upon a time, and he might have left Savannah to go be a big time country star, but he's still the same old Coy who adored his neighbor and friend. He's only in town for a minute, though, before he has to head back to get his new recording contract nailed down. If he is persistent enough, though, he'll be able to get Bells to tell him why she hates him, then they can go back to normal, and they can have some fun before he goes back to his luxurious life in Nashville. Right?
Reputation is signature Adriana - sweet, sexy, and more than a little emotionally intense. Bellamy and Coy, especially Bellamy, are such heartfelt characters, and I am not ashamed to admit I shed more than a few tears as everything came out that she was going through, had gone through before Coy came back home. Bellamy is definitely the star of her own story with everyone else a distant (although pretty great) second, and I loved reading as she finally got the happiness and love she deserved. Now I can't wait to read Boone's story, I know it's going to be verrry interesting!

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
