Description

From Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author M. Robinson comes an enemies to lovers, arranged marriage, second chance standalone romance.

The only thing I was looking forward to more than marrying my enemy…
 
Was seeing her pregnant with my baby. 
 
But I guess that’s why I’m the bad boy of my family—but she’s always played the good girl. 
 
If they only knew the things she begged me to do all those years ago, when I was sneaking in through her bedroom window. 
 
Before I left.
Before I broke her heart.
Before she hated me.
 
She doesn’t have to love me. 
Hell, she doesn’t even have to like me. She just has to marry me to merge our feuding families… 
 
Best part of our contract is we have to produce a bloodline heir. 
 
My reasons for agreeing to an arranged marriage have nothing to do with claiming our inheritance… 
 
And everything to do with claiming the woman I love.

  • HS bully/ Romeo and Juliet mixed in

    Little Romeo and Juliet with a side of HS bullying going on to make this book great. I enjoyed this book a lot with Tristian and Belle as they are forced to marry to “merge” their two companies together. With a past we at first weren’t privileged to, we didn’t know why Belle had such deep feelings of hate toward him. Over time of flashbacks we got to see. I enjoyed this turn around book and I can’t wait for Paige’s story. I received this ARC through the publisher and I am voluntarily reviewing this book, opinions are my own.

    ✨ ARC Review ✨ *** Thank you to M. Robinson for the ARC to review. *** This series just keeps getting better and better. I love Tristan. He was perfection. Sweet, caring, sexy, controlling, and hot. I loved his chemistry with Belle. Their banter and hate made their story and spicy scenes 🔥. The writing hooked me from the start and I was constantly smiling, swooning, or getting teary eyed. M. Robinson is truly the queen of angst. *** ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5
  • Great story!

    Another awesome book by M Robinson. This book is enemies to lovers (my favorite trope), arranged marriage & second chance. Tristan is so sexy & hot. Love Belle’s strong will & her love for street bikes. Their chemistry together is off the charts! Loved the twist that came at the end of the story, too!
  • Fun & Sexy

    Second Chance Rival is an enemies to lovers/arranged marriage love story. Tristan and Belle come from wealthy families who have never liked one another. The two are supposed to stay away from each other when they’re younger, but now their grandfathers want them married. Belle initially wants no part of the plan, but eventually caves. Once they are married the real fun begins. I really enjoyed the witty banter between Tristan & Bell. They were pretty entertaining. This book was a quick, fun, and sexy read. I will definitely be telling my reading buddies about it.

    I devoured this book!! I am a sucker for first loves reconnecting, throw in Monica’s brilliance at adding just the right amount of angst & off the charts chemistry, Second Chance Rival was the perfect weekend read! Bonus we get to fall in love with Tristian & Belle when they first fell in love💕…and we get to meet their “fairy grandfathers”😘 Fave quotes: Struggling with the words, “I love you,” on my breath, so instead, I murmured, “You’re my first memory, and I want you to be my last.”—-when Tristian opens up and shares himself with Belle💕💕💕 I found my soulmate when I was sixteen-years-old and I knew then like I knew it now. We might have been young, but it didn’t matter. Tristian was forever a part of me. I found my soul mate when I was sixteen-years-old. And for the next two decades, it waited until my soul was complete again.

    Wow M Robinson did it again! I mean girl!! Out of the Second Chance series I think this one might be my on my top favorites! Tristan and Belle 😏 They are meant to be rivals and dislike each other.. key word.. meant.. yeah that’s not how it happens. It’s inta love denial! Childhood loves that are forced to separate only to be brought in an arranged marriage 20 years later.. oh boy! Read this angst filled, swoon worthy smexy story! Can’t wait for the next book!

    I’m telling ya.. M. Robinson is the queen of just about EVERYTHING!!! I have been not so patiently waiting for Belle & Tristan…. Second chance / enemies to lovers are a couple of my faves and M did not disappoint!!! Tristan & Belle have known each other most there lives.. they have loved each other for just as long.. but there families have this rivalry, they pretty much hate each other.. so regardless of there feelings.. nothing was supposed to happen.. and if it did.. it was bound to be doomed… which is exactly what happened. I’m telling ya.. each book in this series.. they just get better & better.. and I’ll say this right now.. TRISTAN IS MINE!!

    What an awesome second chance romance. I absolutely Loved Tristian’s and Belle’s wonderful, heartwarming love story. They get another chance twenty years after he suddenly left town and broke her heart. As the story unfolds, he finally reveals that his leaving was not of his choosing. It seems that their respective grandfathers controlled their lives, then and now. Kudos to M Robinson on the transitioning between past and present time. Some books are too convoluted for me to understand. This was smoothly done. The plot was so sweet and spicy. The ending was perfect. If you like sexy reads, don’t miss this one! *this honest review is based on a complimentary copy*

    Holy HOTNESS!!! Tristian and Belle have that chemistry that could light the pages on fire!!! I absolutely LOVED all the angst and the banter was to die for. I was literally hooked from start to finish. As truths are revealed my heart broke for both young Tristian and Belle. Their love poured off the pages. I loved watching them end up where they were always suppose to be. A definite MUST Read!!!
