About this listen
Ever wish you could meet someone again for the very first time and walk right the eff by them?
When Greg Svensson crossed my path four years ago, I should have just let him keep on walking...right into the street to get hit by a bus.
But I was weak.
Not to mention that when you’re a six-foot-tall woman and meet a guy out in the wild who is both taller than you and attracted to you, you make certain allowances. You ignore certain red flags.
Greg is poison. Sexy poison, but he’s still the type of bad decision that will leave you on the cold floor of your apartment, consuming your weight in cheese while you wonder what the hell happened. Greg happened.
And now he’s stolen my company—the one I built by sheer force of will. I’m demoralized, furious, humiliated. The worst part? Now we have to work together. Him in the office next to mine. His stupid, smug, perfect face on the other side of a glass wall that I swear to God I’m throwing a chair through if he doesn’t stop doing that tapping thing with his fountain pen.
Breathe.
He thinks he’s won. But I’m going to make sure he regrets meeting me as much as I regret meeting him. Forget stealing his parking space (though his expression is pretty funny). And note to self: definitely forget sleeping with him! No...I’m taking my pound of flesh.
Ugh. God, keep your clothes on. Not like that!
This is a full-length second-chances romantic comedy with ride-or-die friends, day drinking in the office, bad decisions with a hot ex, and a guaranteed happily ever after! You may want to check out The Hate Date, Love, Hate, and Terrible Dates, and The Worst Dates Bring Chocolate Cake before listening to this novel.

Welcome to life as a wedding planner for the rich and entitled of Manhattan. I’ve seen it all - from the nastiest bridezilla to the most overindulged billionaire. And Evan is the worst. Tall, dark, and handsome, he has a ridiculously ripped body under his formal suit and runs a massive hedgefund that’s actively making the world a worse place. I don’t even feel sorry for him when he walks away from the alter in a daze

In my perfect world, it would always be winter and never Christmas. I despise the holiday. I hate carols, shopping, and pretending to be a perfect family. I walked away from my family, or rather, they walked away from me. My heart is like ice. See it creeping up the walls. Oh, wait, no, that’s royal icing.

I admit it was me who shouted, “Looking good, hot stuff!” at Mr. Richmond this morning, but I didn’t mean it like that. Yes, Mrs. HR Lady, I know how it looks. Believe me, I am totally anti-catcalling, but that’s not what that was. Honest. I was paying him a compliment! That’s kind of what I do: I’m a proud, small-town Floridian, and Manhattan is craving some Florida sunshine—nothing like a sincere compliment to turn those New York frowns upside down!

I kept smiling when I caught my fiancé coming down my sister’s chimney on Christmas Eve. I gave polite congratulations when they got engaged. And I even offered to help decorate for their Christmas wedding despite the fact that was supposed to be my dream wedding. But when my sister cuts up my great-grandmother’s one-hundred-year-old wedding dress and turns it into a skank show, even though that was the dress I was going to wear on my wedding day? Well, this elf is torching down the North Pole.

Rules are meant to be broken. Except for one: Women can't get enough peonies. Even the girl in front of me in line is admiring the peonies in my hand. While I need these particular flowers for my latest plot, I'll still give Meghan the biggest, thickest bouquet I can find. It's flattering how much she wants my peonies. And I don't mind personally delivering.

I didn’t know bridesmaid was code for babysitter for the bride’s brother, but if that’s what my best friend needs of me for her dream wedding to go off without a hitch, that’s what I’ll do. Even if Theo Monroe has been a pain in my rear since third grade. Even if he should be responsible enough to not wreak havoc at his sister’s destination wedding.

Zanders: Chicago hockey isn't complete without me—everyone's favorite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job.

I knew fixing up my life with a fresh start on the hobby ranch I inherited in Hell’s Bells, Wyoming, would come with challenges. Things like snow. Wildlife. Local gossip about why my daughter and I are here. But the biggest challenge? My surly new tenant. He’s like a bear. Fascinating from a distance, but don’t get too close, or he’ll bite. His personality should be a good thing. I have no need of a new man in my life. But he’s not only my tenant; he’s also my daughter’s math teacher and soccer coach.

Once I saw Marnie Long, a sassy, sultry, charismatic older woman in a bar, I couldn’t peel my eyes off her. I wanted her. At least, for one night. I’m way too busy with my career these days for anything more. As it turned out, after recently getting burned, Marnie was on the same page as me—all she wanted was one night of fun. I was happy to be of service. What I didn’t expect during our night together, however, was how deeply we connected. Also, how much I was dying to see her again the next morning.

Finally
Finally we get to Belle it was a very cute story however the man reading sounded like a 90 yr old man with out teeth. I could not stand it. I tried to get a refund it did not let me so I powered through. Cute story finally they get together and have a baby super cute terrible narrator on the male part even the steamy parts were eww bc of his voice and tone. The lady plying belle was great.

They finally get a HEA!!!!!!
They finally get a HEA!!!!!!
Billionaire, 2nd chance, lovers to enemies to lovers,
I do have to say... My husband loves this book (and this author) even though he has never read a single page ;)
This is not the first book in the series but can be read as a complete stand alone. However I think you will get just a touch more out of it if you have read the other books as you have met almost all of the secondary characters and the main MC before.
I listened to the audiobook of this, and loved it! I think that hearing the voices gives you so much more as a reader. You really can feel the emotions. These narrators were top notch.

Dates I Love to Hate
I have read and enjoyed a number of Alina's books. Greg and Belle's story is one I have been looking forward to for a long time, and it definitely did not disappoint! Despite how they have antagonized each other they have undeniable chemistry and it was easy to see the connection between them.
So many story threads from the series came together and it was interesting seeing how everything played out. As with all of Alina's books there is plenty of humor and fun, but there's also emotional moments and enough drama to keep things interesting. This was the perfect wrap up to Greg and Belle's story, and I'm glad they got their HEA!
