Shacking Up Series
Author: Helena Hunting
A new kind of love story about flipping houses, taking risks, and landing that special someone who’s move-in ready…
SHE’S GOT CURB APPEAL
Rian Sutter grew up with the finer things in life. Spending summers in The Hamptons was a normal occurrence for her until her parents lost everything years ago. Now Rian and her sister are getting their life, and finances, back on track through real estate. Not only do they buy and sell houses to the rich and famous, but they finally have the capital to flip their very own beachfront property. But when she inadvertently catches the attention of a sexy stranger who snaps up every house from under her, all bets are off…
HE’S A FIXER UPPER
Pierce Whitfield doesn’t normally demo kitchens, install dry wall, or tear apart a beautiful woman’s dreams. He’s just a down-on-his-luck lawyer who needed a break from the city and agreed to help his brother work on a few homes in the Hamptons. When he first meets Rian, the attraction is undeniable. But when they start competing for the same pieces of prime real estate, the early sparks turn into full-blown fireworks. Can these passionate rivals turn up the heat on their budding romance — without burning down the house?
I FLIPPING LOVE YOU, set in the Shacking Up world, follows two people, both working in real estate, who find themselves vying for the same properties in the Hamptons, leading to a sometimes-not-so-friendly competition.
Review:
So I bought this book on one of my trips to Walmart thinking it would be totally up my ally- what's not to love about an enemies to lovers book or a rom-com?
This would be the perfect beach read, or book to read pool side. It's a fun, summery read about two sisters- Rian and Marley who are trying to get into real estate, and flip houses. Rian meets an angry hot guy in the store who accuses her of a hit and run with his car. Talk about crazy. Hot angry guy- Pierce has been staying in the Hamptons with his brother. They both want out of the family business-like and they plan to buy up realistate for rentals.
So what happens when Pierce and Rian cross paths not once, not twice but on four separate ocassions? Their attraction turns into a summer fling- but when both are hiding secrets of their past do they really have a future?
This was a perfect summer read. It was light, funny, and beach oriented. I usually jump head first into books- not coming up until I finish, but I took this one at a more relaxing pace reading over the course of a couple days instead of staying up all night. I liked the story and characters, but didn't fall madly in love, or obsess over it. Pierce was a rich, cocky, asshole and Rian was smart, sexy, butselfconcious about a past she couldn't change. I enjoyed the push & pull, and the humor throughout.
