Melanie Harlow

I have trouble saying no. To shoes, handbags, the dessert tray...you name it. But when I agreed to plan last-minute engagement bash for a spoiled Mafia princess, I had no idea she'd demand that my sexy ex cater it. He'll agree to work for me, but only if I agree to spend a weekend with him. Did I mention my weakness for a**holes with tattoos? "Melanie Harlow's sassy, sweet, and oh, so sexy Frenched series stands out in the romantic comedy genre. You're certain to fall in love along with each of her perfectly flawed characters." -- Laurelin Paige, NYT Bestselling Author

THIS BOOK. I love a second chance romance, and this is one of my new favorites.

Coco & Nick dated off and on for years in college. They were crazy about each other from day one, but being young and wild and passionate, things didn’t always go smoothly. After Nick breaks Coco’s heart one final time in a hotel room in Vegas, she thinks it’s over for good. But now, 7 years later, she needs his help. In order to impress a huge client and boost her business, she has to get a famous chef. Which famous chef? Nick Lupo. Nick agrees to help her, but only if she spends one weekend with him. They agree to no sex and no talking about the past. But… turns out that crazy passion was never really gone. 

Now, I freaking loved this book. I truly could FEEL their passion and longing and hurt for each other while I was reading. Were they a little hot headed and toxic? oh yeah. But for once it didn’t bother me because you could just tell they were soulmates. Two people who loved each other so hard and truly never stood a chance of ending up with anyone else. When the tension breaks between these two… it is next level. So much anger and lust and frustration and longing, and 7 years to make up for. I was living for it. I debated giving this a 4.5 bc maybe they didn’t have the healthiest relationship, but I couldn’t even bring myself to see that as a fault bc i just loved it so dang much.

Not my favorite Melanie Harlow book but still an enjoyable read. I can't say I was a fan of Coco....most of the time I wanted to smack her to be honest. I think she probably should have paid more attention in health class.....

Anyways, aside from that, Nick was absolutely yummy....he is a Lupo afterall! I loved how the Lupo family background was woven into the story! "Speak Easy" will always be a favorite of mine and it was a nice surprise to hear what happened to Tiny and Joe. :)
