ARC REVIEW : Never Say Never (Lost in New York #3) by Felice Stevens

53249582. sy475


One taste leaves them wanting more…
INGREDIENTS:
Francisco “Frisco” Martinelli. Hot and spicy. Beautiful on the outside, dark and damaged on the inside. Handle with extreme caution.
Salvatore “Torre” Rossi. Sweet with a kick of spice. Gentle at first, can become swiftly and irrevocably addictive to the heart.

A RECIPE FOR ROMANCE
One snobby food critic who doesn’t believe in love
One down-to-earth food blogger who does
Add a touch of suspicious brother
A heaping serving of best friend who’s been waiting for this to happen

Blend with secret identities, past hurts, and judgments.
Stir in equal portions of desperate longing, desire, fear, and snarky humor.
Set over open flame, step back, and wait for sparks to fly.
Serve as is for an explosive love story that will leave you with a full heart and a ridiculously happy smile at the end.

This is the third book in the Lost in New York series but can be read as a stand alone.




Never Say Never (Lost in New York, #3)Never Say Never by Felice Stevens
My rating: 5 of 5 stars






POSSIBLE SPOILER

Sometimes life had a funny way of coming back and biting you in the ass



Never Say Never is a soulful story about finding yourself and leaving the past behind and never look back. Felice Steven's books always easily become my comfort reads every time I need a good book, with a little angst but not the kind that I hate, with a guaranteed happy ending. That's what I came for.

"There's no time on grief, no expiration date for pain. But when you don't let go of the past, every day you keep breaking and rebreaking your heart, over and over, until it becomes too weak to heal"




When Frisco made an appearance in Presley's book, I knew right then, I wanted his own book.
Someone like Frisco will have an interesting story to tell. I needed Frisco's story so bad, fortunately, everyone needed Frisco's story to tell.
I hurt for Frisco's past, no wonder he was what he was before he met Torre, aka Salvatore Grant, his online forever enemy in food reviewer business.
Frisco held nothing when it comes to his review, he was blunt, harsh and have no mercy for the food he didn't like.
But. even in food reviewer's world, politics makes people's life miserable.
When Frisco forced to review one restaurant that wasn't his field, he met Torre and cannot forget him after.
But Frisco was a one night, one time only guy, no romance, no relationship. His past will tell you why he's such a relationship phobic.
Enemy that they were, both Torre and Frisco cannot be far from each other for too long, but there were still some secrets that remained a secret.
If not for their determinations, and a little help from Presley, maybe there won't be Torre and Frisco.



Reading about Frisco's past hurts me, i wanted to wrap him in a blanket and be a momma bear him.
Glad that everything was great in the end, a guaranteed happy ending for them all.
Including everyone in the series (you'll get free bonus story at the end of the book).


Bonus story review :

After Frisco and Torre set their goals for their new business, some things happened with them. Especially with Presley who's still needed to meet Arden, and apologized one's more.
When Presley met Arden, I cannot held my tears for both of them, between happy and very sad for they were both victims of a cheater.
It was so freeing reading that they're finally came to be friends, and let go of the past.
This bonus scene alone deserved five stars. Because, all the guys are finally got their happily ever after. And I'm happy.
