Dear Red, Be Mine by Bella Greene: Book Review

 **ARC received for consideration. All opinions are my own. 

The Book

Falling for the best man was definitely not on the wedding checklist.

Tom

I’ve battled flames, but nothing scorches like seeing her walk back into town. Bright dresses. Big laugh. And the one who made last summer unforgettable. We promised to stay in touch, but flirty texts only get you so far. Now she’s back—to plan her best friend’s wedding, stand across from me at the altar, and remind me why I’ve never forgotten her. This time, I’ve got a plan because I’m not letting her go without a fight.

Caroline

Tom’s the kind of charming that should come with a warning label. What started as a summer spark turned into months of late-night texts. Now we’re maid of honor and best man—me planning every detail, him making every moment way too distracting. Cue the wedding chaos, the Valentine’s small-town charm, and one dangerously attractive man who still calls me “Red” like it means more than just the color of my hair. Because if I’m not careful…this firefighter might burn his way into my heart.

Dear Red, Be Mine is part of The Valentine's Midlife Meet Cute Series. Here's what you'll find:

Firefighter

Single Mom/Divorcée

Forced Proximity

Maid of Honor/Best Man

Small town

Kisses-only

The Author

Bella Greene enjoys writing sweet, kisses-only romcoms that make you swoon, laugh, and root for a happy ending. She’s happily married to her first love, whom she met on a blind double date. When she’s not writing, you’ll find her homeschooling her two boys, curled up with a good book and coffee, or baking up sweet treats in the kitchen.

Book Review

Another fun addition to the Valentine's Midlife Meet Cute series... this time featuring a handsome firefighter and a wedding planner. For those of us who enjoyed the first round of Midlife Meet Cute books last year, this one is even more fun! Tom and Caroline (the main characters here) are serving as best man/maid of honor for Jake and Maggie who we first met in The Summer I Stayed, so it was really fun to see some familiar characters. Don't worry if you haven't read that one though, this can definitely be enjoyed as a standalone as well. Tom and Caroline were really sweet together. This was a super quick read, easily enjoyed in just a sitting or two, but because we know that they've been in communication before the story picks up, it helps it not to feel at all rushed. If you enjoy firefighter and later in life romance and are looking for a Valentine's Day read, this is one worth checking out. 

Dear Red, Be Mine is a closed-door romance with kisses only and no language. It is part of the Valentine's Midlife Meet Cute series. This is a multiauthor series of later in life Valentine's Day novellas and can all be enjoyed as standalones or in any order.
