Love Her or Lose Her: A Novel (Hot and Hammered Book 2)

Product Information

But one day at a time you can pull through and find that strength and love inside yourself that you never thought you had. Side characters became worst nightmares ever. Stephen and his freak of a wife who thought she needed drama in her marriage to be exciting for her husband... Travis and Georgie became some sort of loons. But Bethany was fun. She was the only one who delivered some fun lines here!! So I'm definitely reading the third book about her and Wes. A couple trying to save their marriage? A Latinx couple? Ex-military? Hot chef? Let me get in there now!!!

I didn’t read Georgie and Travis’ book but Bethany and Wes already took my attention because of their witty dialogues and frenemies to friends story theme. So I think I am not gonna wait for 2020 fall to take a piece from their stories. I should read it ASAP! And when we find out that this outer search for completion won’t work, it leads to broken relationships that don’t recover. In just a few minutes, you can connect with a certified relationship coach and get tailor-made advice for your situation. This is one of the hardest signs you’ve lost her forever, because it can be tempting to think that keeping pushing will eventually produce results.Re-read 8/27/20: I re-read this in preparation for book 3 and I don't really have much to add to my previous review. Dominic was an alpha male to the max and that just.. doesn't work for me. I still love Tessa Bailey's writing and I'm excited to carry on with the series, but this book is mostly a miss for me. Meh I do wish we could’ve gotten more story or drama into what happened to Dom when he was at the war since at the beginning they go out of their way to insist how a lot happened there and he never talked to her about it… and that’s when shit hit the fan. But it turned out it really wasn’t anything bigger than him being at war (which I know is a big deal in itself and I guess it gives it some realism for more normal marriages showing that sometimes the love and excitement slowly dies and people need to work for it, but I still wish we’d gotten something more in regards to that. I think it would’ve given them more story, more things to work out and more development and dimension to Dominic as a character.) You love me fiercely and quietly—you always have—and you’ve started loving me out loud these last few weeks." Losing someone you love is a gut punch that can hurt for months or even years. It can leave you on your knees, lost and reduced to rubble. Love Her or Lose Her is the story of Rosie and Dominic. They were high school sweethearts who were madly in love, but somehow in the ten years they've been married, their connection has faded. Now Rosie realizes that if she ever wants to salvage their love for each other, they must fight hard to rediscover what made them fall in love in the first place.

I really liked how they worked together throughout the book to improve their marriage and to realize what had gone wrong in the first place. There was a lot of development and a lot of healing to be made and it all worked out amazingly. Will she change her mind in five years? Who knows, but it is very unlikely, and holding onto love in this kind of a fixated way is unhealthy and damaging to your wellbeing. If you guys thought book one was hot, you are in for another treat. Rosie and Dominic have SUCH INTENSE CHEMISTRY and that is definitely an important part of their relationship. They are forced into celibacy by their counselor, which makes their chemistry that much more intense and smoldering. Tessa Bailey created this amazing couple who were relatable, flawed like so many of us, yet pure in their love. It was a lovely reminder that there's always hope ❤️Rosie and Dominic are childhood sweethearts who have let each other drift away from one another. When Rosie declares she's leaving, Dominic has the wake-up call he needed and he's not going to let his marriage go without a fight. It's a second chance for the Vegas' marriage and hard truths are going to have to be told and feelings expressed if they're going to have a chance. I’m not going to sugarcoat it and say that love will eventually work out, or that breakups are always just a “stepping stone.” Some breakups can really cut you down and smash your hope for the future. I've been eagerly anticipating this release ever since I read and adored the first book in the series last year. And boy, does it deliver! Most romances focus on the initial honeymoon phase, when couples meet and fall in love and everything's perfect. Yet everyone can relate to a long relationship slowly losing its vitality as the years pile on and the drudgery of real life takes its toll. That's why I found this story to be particularly appealing. Unfortunately along the way they had forgotten the basic fundamentals; communication and affection. Now doubt and discontentment clouds their love. Rosie is done; her dreams have dissolved and she can no longer bear just existing in a loveless marriage. So she finds the courage to leave.

Whatever the reason for it, not paying attention to your partner can be a very hard thing to fix. Once it’s done, it’s done…What was with the pet names? I don't think Dom called Rosie by her actual name in the whole book, it was honey girl this honey girl that, and it annoyed me. I know that some people use pet names, but it was in every interaction 🙄 Your connection isn’t working out and you’ve let her down so much you might as well be an elevator. This was...I don't even have words. Perfection! Swoony, sexy, and brimming with feels. It was everything I wanted in their story and yet so much more.

Dominic and Rosie were high school sweethearts who married one another. They've always been so in love and had a great relationship, but lately things have changed. I wouldn't say they've lost their spark... their chemistry is still there. But that seems like that's all that's there. They don't talk anymore, they don't spend time together (outside of their Tuesday night bedroom date) and Rosie has had enough. She decides they need some real help if they're going to make it work, so she moves out while they undergo some 'extreme marriage therapy', which is unconventional but a hoot. After all, it’s a safety issue. I couldn’t have the narration steaming up my windshield while I was driving. Or even driving right off the road, right!?💁🏻‍♀️ Hoover is one of the freshest voices in new-adult fiction, and her latest resonates with true emotion, unforgettable characters and just the right amount of sexual tension. But you need to keep going and let them make you stronger. Think of the incompatibilities of the girl you love and the times she treated you like dirt.Being a hopeless romantic can be really disillusioning. As a younger man, I would meet girls in passing and desperately wish to talk to them more, only to be too shy, or to do so once there was no time left.
