Hook, Line, and Sinker (Bellinger Sisters, 2)

Product Information

Do you ever have these authors where you’re lowkey mad at yourself that you haven’t discovered them sooner? Helping her flirt with another guy is pure torture, but maybe if Fox can tackle his inner demons and show Hannah he's all in, she'll choose him instead? this particular installment will speak to anyone who has ever seen themselves as the support, rather than the main character, in their own story, to the people who always have the perfect song for the mood they are in, to those who struggle with imposter syndrome, and to the ones who always believe in those they care about, even when they dont believe in themselves. When Fox puts up his guard and tells Hannah it will be just sex to him, she decides to be a leading lady and show Fox he’s worthy and capable of more.

Hook, Line, and Sinker by Tessa Bailey, Paperback | Barnes Hook, Line, and Sinker by Tessa Bailey, Paperback | Barnes

In her spare time, she can be found in the kitchen fighting against too sticky chocolate cookie dough or buried under a stack of books after failing to take the perfect bookstagram photo. The ending of this book is enough to make me teary-eyed as they shed the outside interference and go all in for this unexpected romance. I swear Fox is best friends with my 3rd grade best friend’s older brother because one time he told us that repeating someone’s name made them like like you so at dinner he demonstrated with my name and I SWEAR this book was deja vu.A lot of the dialogue and some romantic/sex scenes were incredibly cheesy and cringy, much like the first book. In fact, Rensselaer has not died (as hinted at the end of the first trilogy, and discussed in this book) but is in fact in rehabilitation. There was a fair amount of clichés as well, that I felt were unnecessary but other than that this book was a pretty decent read. The small quaint town has a particular draw that even Hannah can't resist, and the chemistry between her and Fox is scorching. I still liked the first book better, so it was extremely satisfying anytime Piper and Brendan appeared.

Bellinger Sisters Series by Tessa Bailey - Goodreads

Piper Bellinger is fashionable, influential, and her reputation as a wild child means the paparazzi are constantly on her heels. I didn’t expect Fox’s struggles since it’s not something I see often, but it was definitely interesting, especially with the parts that explored the origins of his struggles and how people over the years have fueled these struggles. I didn’t learn much besides the fact that the tone it set for the book was one I’d have to crawl through broken and bleeding to get past the finish line. This trilogy is preceded by the Game, Set and Match trilogy and followed by the final Faith, Hope and Charity trilogy. Fox enjoys the kiss but is unnerved by the way Hannah seems to enjoy simply being with him, talking to him, without sex.I know most of you will disagree with me, and it's totally fine, but I have to take this weight off my chest: I am disappointed. But between Fox's reputation as a ladies man and Hannah being the younger sister of his friend's fiancée, it doesn't seem like a good idea to take it further. If you think the heroine will contradict herself with time by becoming less of a hype girl and more of a main girl. And although I did do a lot of contemplation of toxic masculinity the book was light and fun and easy to read.

Their texting conversation at the beginning was 15 minutes long (I listened to the audio) and it was very very juvenile. I read my first Bailey novel last year and really, there was no turning back after devouring half her backlist in one week. I blame it on lust, and to whoever decided to advertize this as a friends-to-lovers as it's certainly not. Fox or Hannah would come up with yet another reason (or the same one) for why they can't possibly be together, and we just went in circles, again and again. You will have emphasized your physical differences and thus, the fact that he's a man and you're a woman.

One minute they were friends, the other they want to see each other naked, the next hour they were in love and then not even them could tell what was going on.
