About this ebook
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?
The Sometimes in Love series is:
“Playful, passionate, and positively unputdownable!”
—New York Times bestselling author Christina Lauren
“Witty, sexy...Melonie Johnson is an addictive new voice in contemporary romance.” —New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Julie Ann Walker

Life is made up of choices. Good, bad, ugly - it doesn't really matter. The past is filled with choices. They say hindsight is 20/20 but it still doesn't change anything. Once Upon a Bad Boy is a second chance...the one who got away story. A bright future and a murky past collide and create a hazy present. Only these two can figure out what is to come.

I love a second chance romance and this one gives us childhood sweethearts from opposite social classes. The story starts off strong as we get to know Sadie and Bo, and they meet and start to circle each other. Unfortunately, that was the best of it for me because it lost its momentum. The story slowed down to the point that I began to wonder if we were ever going to get there. We finally do, but it was a bit lackluster after the meandering stroll we're taken on to get to this couple's happy ever after. I don't mind a lengthy story if it's needed and it holds my interest. This one was a little too easy to set aside once the pace stalled, and there were some things that were brought up but not concluded or properly fleshed out even after all that time. I think this one could do with a bit of tightening up, but as it stands, it was just an okay read for me.

This second chance romance made my breath catch more than once. Sadie and Bo couldn't seem more different but were pretty perfect for each other. This book gives me all the Sweet Home Alabama vibes. Since that is one of my favorite movies, I had some big expectations for this book. Sadie and Bo are lovely characters and I very much enjoyed reading their story. I hope to see Ana's HEA very soon. She needs to find her perfect cake just like all her friends have!!
