Soft Nectarine ~'s Reviews > Hopeless

shy neighbor’s daughter & scarred war veteran and a fake engagement that becomes VERY very real 💚 the spiciest book in the series!

Bailey has been blacklisted in her small town because of her shitty family. She is just trying to earn enough money to skip town but that’s a bit hard when everyone is against you. This is where our scarred-soldier-boy Beau comes flying in on his huge protective shoulders. Fake engagement but real feelings equals SIZZLING tension! 💍 and a giant ring of course!

💚 age gap!

💚 he calls her Sugar

💚 super flirty! tension!

💚 when he says “atta girl” *internal screaming*

💚 THE BATHTUB scene!!!!!!!!

💚 good grovel 🧎🏽‍♂️

Not sure why I was originally skeptical of this one. These two had so much chemistry and the flirting began even before the fake engagement! Beau had waaaay to much fun with the fake dating part, which really brought Bailey out of her shell 🐚 the two found each other at the perfect time and grew together into many different versions of themselves iykyk

fake dating but he says “New rule, Bailey.” He points at my left hand, slung over the edge of the tub, and then between my legs. “So long as you’re wearing that ring, this pussy is mine.”

Felt like the spiciest book in the series because of all the flirty tension…and possibly the age gap 👀 Beau likes to give directions, and of course, Bailey is more than down to punch in her v card! I can’t even talk about THE BATHTUB SCENE but I was scandalized but I guess it was pretty hot
