I was never supposed to fall in love with a married man. My best friend's brother. I'd made too many mistakes in my past. Like last night-when I married Lex Edwards impulsively. In a bid to finally find their happily ever after, Lex and Charlie find themselves on a journey of learning how to love again. They began a new future to move forward from a broken past, finally together at last. They vowed nothing would tear them apart... again. But life's cruel fate destroys their lives, and in desperate times they tear their love apart grieving over a lost loved one. Lex and Charlie find themselves on the verge of finally saying goodbye to each other, until the return of a scorned ex-fiancé who's desperate to claim back what was his.

He was my first love. Shattered me, then left without a goodbye. Eight years have passed, and now he's back. But, I'm engaged. And he will do anything to make sure I'm his... 𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯. I've fought hard to rebuild my life. So when the ever-so-perfect Julian Baker proposes marriage, I'm ready to forget the past and move on with my new love. In a cruel twist of fate, my past and future collide. I'm forced to face the man who destroyed my heart back in high school. Lex Edwards, turned billionaire tycoon, is ruthless, cunning, and will not stop until I'm his. A complicated love triangle was never something I imagined when Julian proposed to me. Especially not involving Lex. Hearts and egos are bound to be broken. But whose heart will capture mine when the darkness fades?

Chasing Love

I'm sorry but no- I should have dnf but my hopeful, curious ass had to finish it. For 70% of the book some parts are literally the exact same thing except in the other pov but its not like it gave me anything juicy to where it was worth it. This book could easily be cut in half if it didn't do that. It also had straight lying, cheating all around and super toxic in a bad way. I'm so annoyed it left on a cliffhanger after what I was put through and I'm honestly going to leave it at that.

I have so many words for this book. The main characters? Terrible people and both insufferable. The writing? horrendous. 0.5 because I can’t give it -1000.

I have a love/hate relationship with the main female character. She says she wants her fiancé but 2 seconds later is shacking up with her ex and after that will say she still wants her fiancé. Like girl cmon now. Overall it was a lot of back and forth just for the author to say “to be continued”. Now I gotta buy the whole series

I HATED this book!!! Never did I ever get THIS annoyed by a book (perhaps, "The Duke and I" can relate.)

There is so much wrong in this book, the writing style was okay but boy did this book k-word me! I am down for any book that has a brother's best friend or best friend's brother but this was just NOT IT!

1. This promotes cheating! Charlie literally engages in a relationship with her brother's best friend which is okay but he is married?? IT IS NOT OKAY! GIRL COME ON YOU ARE BLOODY 18 FREAKING YEARS OLD AND YOU DEFINITELY KNOW THAT YOU ARE THE SIDE CHICK! I mean it's okay if they're in love but then at least be honest about your love and open up the facts with people instead of continuing the shit game. See if Lex and Samantha were in an unhappy marriage, then they should have at least been honest with each other as to they are cheating with each other by indulging in extramarital affairs. Like duh, what's the point of even staying in that relationship if you are getting nothing out of it; not even love?

2. This is like a sub-point of the previous point. If they are really not in love and are sexually involved with other people, they why did Samantha lie about the baby being Lex's when she ended up with the baby's dad anyway? Like there's nothing she gets out of it apart from hate and unhappiness. Honestly, that was the worst possible move ever because she could have easily just been honest and started a new one with whoever the dad is! What is the point-like seriously was it just to add to the plot? To me, it's more like a plot hole.

3. The fact that in spite of being in love, Lex does NOT respect his dreamgirl's privacy and will. Even when he got to know that she is engaged to Julian, he could have at least not forced her or aroused her by playing with her feelings! Bro, I understand if you are heartbroken and possessive about her but that does not give you any right to sexually aroused her knowing that she will ultimately be mad at you. YOU WERE THE ONE WHO BROKE HER THE FIRST TIME SO BACK OFF IF SHE DOES NOT TRUST YOU IN THE FIRST GO!

4. Charlie is so indecisive! She plays around all the time like she knows that she is engaged but if she is having feelings for Lex, then she could have opened up about it with Julian so that he doesn't get broken just like how she was 9 years ago. If she has experienced that trauma so much so that she was admitted to the psych ward, then why the hell does she do the same to Julain?? I know that it was for the plot but there are so many ways this story could be re-written without all the cheating that happened. She literally sleeps with both, kisses both, and says "I want you" to both all while being engaged to one. If she needs time, she could have taken it without cheating or indulging sexually with the other one and then lied about it when asked. She also does the same mistake when she was 18 and she plays around with her best friend's brother! She could have been with him if he was single or if everyone was in the know about the relationship including the families of the involved parties!

5. This sets the wrong example for teenagers and other people! Cheating is NOT acceptable in any given scenario even if the couple is not in love anymore. If they had JUST been honest and kept one another informed about their "doings", it is alright but doing it behind each other's back is so dumb!

So overall, this was a pain in the ass for me! I don't think I will ever pick up the other books in this series :(

I- The way I absolutely loathed the main guy and his misogynistic thoughts and man child behaviour is just unlike anything I've ever felt. 

I've read some twisted shit, serial killer and mafia dark romance possesive guys who I will probably hate irl and of course there is misogyny and sexism and just awful behaviour but I can turn of my critical thinking brain and just enjoy the tension between the characters as soon as it doesnt go too far and the spice is good but honestly this book had me rolling my eyes and wanted to bit the shit out of the main character all at once
