Recommendation
I love when high school sweethearts reconnect and Erika wrote such a heartbreaking couple, you were cheering Fin on to break down Callie’s walls. The drama in this story was so unique and at times I just wanted to shake a few people. But, watching Fin do everything he can to be the “best” boyfriend and brother around will have you swooning. He wanted Callie back and he was focused on helping her with her project even though it was potentially detrimental to his career. Erika wrote great self-reflections for Fin and Callie, seeing their mistakes from the past from both points of view, it really helps you become immersed in their lives. She also wrote some super hot bedroom scenes that you’ll be highlighting a lot.
Excerpts
Pushing her legs apart, he licked into her wet heat before taking the time to discover all the hidden places that made her hips rise and her fingers grip the sheet.
"I have missed every single thing about you, Fin Bowie, but knowing you still love me like this? It's everything."
He'd never seen anything sexier in his life than Callie's mouth swollen and wet, her expression filled with raw, carnal need.
Publisher synopsis
How's he supposed to win back the love of his life when a text he sent goes viral and the whole world's calling him the World's Worst Boyfriend?
Six years ago Fin Bowie made a decision that cost him the love of his life. Now his ex is coming back to town for her brother's wedding, and he can finally make things right. Except, right before the event, a text he sent goes viral. Overnight, he becomes an international meme. And it's hard to win your woman back when the whole world's calling you The World's Worst Boyfriend.
The last thing on Calliope Bell's mind is getting back with Fin. Not when her life's just gone sideways, forcing her to spend the summer in Calamity, Wyoming. She can't be away from the New York art world this long, so she comes up with the idea to turn the hottest pop culture event of the moment into a museum exhibition.
The two have every intention of avoiding each other–until the county judge sentences Fin to community service…helping her exploit the meme he's trying to make go away.
