Review:
My Best Friend’s Ex is book two in the Daring Divorcees Series by Shannyn Schroeder.
Trevor Booth has lost everything, due to his alcoholism. Ten years ago his ex -wife Lisa divorced him. Since then, he has struggled to get his life back on track, and come to terms that he will never get back what he has lost! While he is weekend dad to two teenagers, his ex-wife has been texting asking him to step up and deal with their sons disrespectful attitude. The next call he gets changes everything. Lisa has died in a car accident. This completely changes Trevor’s world.
In coming together to pay respects to his ex-wife, he coMes face to face with his ex-wife’s best friend Callie. When Trevor is forced to take on the full-time parent role. He admittedly acknowledges that he doesn’t have clue about raising children. Callie is reeling from the fact that she has lost her best friend. She is not going to lose Lisa’s kids also. Callie feels obligated to step up and be there for Lisa’s children.
In the process, Trevor and Callie begin to realize that they have feelings for each other. And both also feel disloyal to Lisa in the feelings that they feel. They also don’t want the kids to know anything until they are sure things will work out! But they are teenagers – they already knew!
Trevor is hard working, loyal and honest. I enjoyed him coming into his own as a single parent. And even when he doubts that he can do it – he does!
Callie is a world traveller and is always on the move. When she loses her best friend, she makes the decision that she can’t lose the only pieces of Lisa she has left!
I enjoyed how the relationship developed and couldn’t stop reading well into the night! I needed to know what was going to happen next! Thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend as a great summer read.
