Sometimes in Love Book 3


NEVER SAY NEVER Sadie Gold is ready to take her career to the next level with the role of a lifetime. Finally, she can shake her reputation as a pretty face with more wealth and connections than talent. But Sadie is not prepared for the wild turn her own life is about to take. The man in charge of training Sadie for her most demanding role yet is none other than her first real boyfriend—the one who took her heart and ran away.

WHEN IT COMES TO LOVE Bo Ibarra is as good-looking and irresistible as ever. Maybe even more so, now that everything once worked against them—Sadie’s pampered and privileged upbringing and Bo’s childhood in a family struggling to make ends meet—is in the past. But the future is still unwritten…and getting there, together, means coming clean about painful secrets and slashing through nasty tabloid rumors while trying to control the attraction that crackles between them. Maybe it’s finally time for them to walk off into the sunset and into a true and lasting love?


 


My Review:

I’ve read the books before this. I shouldn’t have been surprised. But this still caught me unawares and left me bawling like a baby in the end. This whole series has been an emotional roller-coaster; leading me through twists and turns I never quite saw coming. I adored Sadie! She’s so fierce and feisty. I loved watching the way she fought her way over, around, or through every obstacle in her path. Bo left me wanting to smack him more than once. I loved how devoted he is to his family and his career, but he kind of has the emotional quotient of a rutabaga. That made my heart hurt for Sadie for a lot of the book. It made me so very happy for these two when things were going right with their relationship and depressed the living hell out of me when they were on the outs. I am nowhere close to being ready to say “goodbye” to this group of characters, so I’m desperately hoping there’s still more books about them to come.

I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book through NetGalley.
