The CEO the Puppy and Me by Jennifer Faye

Note from the Author

Thank you for joining me for the second book in The Bartolini Legacy trilogy. One diary… One secret… Leads to one unforgettable summer…

Life is full of surprises. Some of those surprises are amazing. And then there are others that are so unimaginable, so disorienting that it steals your breath away.

Gia Bartolini would do anything to get back the only life she’s ever known. Instead, she must deal with the death of her parents, a will that has put her family’s home up for grabs, and a family secret that threatens to rip her family apart. How could her life get any worse?

Not so long ago, CEO Ric Moretti led a solitary life, but losing a bet to a good friend led him to play a brief part in a hit movie, skyrocketing him to unwanted stardom. So when a lady sneaks onto his property, he naturally assumes it’s a fan. However when he finds the woman trying to help a puppy, he learns not to jump to conclusions—because they aren’t always right. In fact, sometimes they couldn’t be more wrong.

Now that their lives have collided, neither will ever be the same. But first they must take a journey into the past before they can forge a new future.

Happy reading,

— Jennifer

MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK

When the Bartolini's lost their parents, a deep dark secret was revealed a out their parents past, and one sibling is not a Bartolini. When Gia ended up being the one that wasn't their dads biological daughter, she takes off on a long journey trying to find the man that is her real dad. Will she really unveil secrets that have come to haunt them? This is a sweet romance that has several other stories going on within the story. I was wondering where the puppy came in, and this was an interesting story as well. I felt the puppy held things together between Gia and Ric, especially at first. And Ric and the puppy are so adorable together. And now to the rest of the story. It is so hard for me to write this review and not give away any of the plot! I can say that the author does a really nice job with her characters. As I read the book I had the feeling these were real people in our real world. I love the family setting, and even though they have money, the three siblings do not mind working to support themselves. And I will stop here, before I give too much away. If you love a good clean romance, check out The CEO, The Puppy and Me for a few hours of sweet entertainment! A special thanks to the author/publisher for a copy of this book.
