Wow what can I say but another amazing book by bailie I loved Alyssa and callums book it was amazing I cant put into words what I love about it the most cause I don’t wont to give anything away but if you have read the other ones in the series you will need to read this one too for sure loved loved it
What a roller coaster ride that was.
Fans of this author will love the Easter eggs throughout too.
Fantastically put together and captivated me from start to finish.
A winning Second Chance Sports Romance
Bailie Hantam has written another home run of a book with Callum and Alyssa’s story. While each of these books in the Thirty Something in the City series are stand-a-lones, the preceding books give a little background into not only the main characters, but the secondary ones who all have input into this book. If you haven’t read them, it’s no drama, Ms Hantam introduces everyone perfectly, and you won’t get lost.
Centred around the world rated rugby team in South Africa, there is plenty of action, intrigue, and family goings-on, that you will not want to put this book down once started. I absolutely love the writing style of this author, and the witty comments verge on the hilarious, especially when Callum and Alyssa’s tenacious three-year-old son, Eli appears. Seriously, this kid was pure gold and every scene he was written into was hella funny when you can imagine his parents squirming with discomfort at some of his lines of questioning!!!
Callum Cooper is trying to move on after his fight to save his marriage failed, and he has successfully balanced his rugby career with the co-parenting of their son, so when he ends up under Alyssa’s professional care after an accident, he’s extremely resistant to her realisation that she’s made a mistake.
Dr Alyssa Combs blamed Callum for the roadblock in her career promotion, and in a fit of anger, she spitefully divorced him. She’s finally achieved her goal, but the success has left her feeling empty, and she realises now, exactly where she went wrong. If she wants her second chance, she has to prove that this time, it’s going to be forever unconditionally, not forever till their next fall out.
Second chance romances are among my favourite, and if you spice it up with sport, and some serious steamy chemistry between the main characters, as Bailie Hantam has done, then what you now have in your hands is a winning 5 star read that it highly recommended!!!
Thirty-Something In The City: The Coopers Book 3, brings us Callum and Alyssa’s story.
This second chance romance had me stuck to my kindle from start to finish. Rooting for these characters to have their HEA.
Can’t wait to read more of this series. Really enjoying it!
I’m so loving this series that will have you falling in love with romance. Callum and Alyssa’s story is about two people who wanted it all and lost each other, but now they have a chance for the second time around to get it right. Drama, suspense and heat level play a big part in this feel good romance story that will have you cheering for their HEA. I can’t wait to see what happens next in this series that doesn’t disappoint.
Another brilliant heartwarming read from bailie. Every new addition gets better and better you cant help but fall in love with the characters she creates and the family dynamics that her words portrays.
I thoroughly enjoyed Callum and Alyssa ‘s story a hot and steamy second chance love story with a touch of angst that has you hoping and praying they eventually get their act together and realise they belong to each other.
It’s been fantastic to read bailies words from the very start and with each new release she just gets better and better I’m really excited to see what the future will bring……..
This is the 3rd book in this amazing series and is Callum and Alyssa’s story. These two have been divorced for a couple of years, and they have regretted this decision ever since. Now that Callum is injured, he is being cared for by Alyssa, but can they reconcile and move on? No spoilers; this is a must read, you will not be disappointed. This is a well written story which is entertaining and with forgiveness and love. I was intrigued and hooked throughout and cannot wait to read more form this talented author.
