Hook, Line, and Sinker by Tessa Bailey

 Hook, Line, and Sinker (Bellinger Sisters, #2)

Synopsis:

King crab fisherman Fox Thornton has a reputation as a sexy, carefree flirt. Everyone knows he's a guaranteed good time--in bed and out--and that's exactly how he prefers it. Until he meets Hannah Bellinger. She's immune to his charm and looks, but she seems to enjoy his... personality? And wants to be friends? Bizarre. But he likes her too much to risk a fling, so platonic pals it is.


Now, Hannah's in town for work, crashing in Fox's spare bedroom. She knows he's a notorious ladies' man, but they're definitely just friends. In fact, she's nursing a hopeless crush on a colleague and Fox is just the person to help with her lackluster love life. 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. 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.


Living with his best friend should have been easy. 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. Helping her flirt with another guy is pure torture, but maybe if Fox can tackle his inner demons and show Hannah he's all in, she'll choose him instead?

Okay, wow, this was so good! I knew it would be though. It wasn't as spicy as "It Happened One Summer" but I loved it nonetheless. I love Hannah and Fox but Brendan is still the hottest in my opinion! lol  I love how Hannah encourages and inspires Fox to grow. She doesn't give up on him, His growth and development is amazing and I'm definitely here for it. 

Thank you so much to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

BOTM Prediction - April 2022

Hey bookworms! We have had a rough couple of weeks in our household, my youngest daughter started with a stomach bug then it went to my oldest daughter then to my husband then to me, which is why I am sharing my predictions later than usual. Last month 3 of my predictions were picks (yay) and I was so excited. I chose 2, The Paris Apartment and The Book of Cold Cases . Did anyone else choose these?   It's always fun putting a list together and seeing all the upcoming releases. I'm adding a max of 3 books for each genre again. Remember these are just predictions. Might be a BOTM pick, might not . Enjoy! Historical Fiction The Good Left Undone by Adriana Trigiani Matelda, the Cabrelli family's matriarch, has always been brusque and opinionated. Now, as she faces the end of her life, she is determined to share a long-held secret with her family about her own mother's great love story: with her childhood friend, Silvio, and with dashing Scottish sea captain John Lawrie Mc...
