It was a fun read that had me hooked. This was a first book from the author and from the series. I really liked it and will pick up the rest of the series.

This was a really cute book. The two of them are now really against being in relationships but also want to be in one with each other. She is so scared that he's just going to run away but Rhys has to show her that he's not going anywhere and it's really cute groveling.
I received an arc through netgalley.

I really enjoyed this book!
It is a fast-paced book, and I read it very quickly.
The couple is a chef's kiss.
Rhys and Eden are our MCs.
Rhys is a divorce attorney. Rhys has to take over his sister's wedding planning business to save the family land.
Eden, a quilter, has been jilted, left at the altar, and is utterly devastated and desperate.
Rhys ends up getting her out of the wedding venue.
Eden needs the quilts in the back of now ex-fiancé's car for her shop. Rhys is the one who takes her to the quilts.
Paul is on the run, and so this ends up being a crazy road trip.
This story was funny. I laughed out loud multiple times.
The two end up finding they have amazing chemistry, and the spice doesn't disappoint.
A road trip between enemies turns into an enemies-to-lovers romance.
The characters are developed.
The plot is well structured, and the pace is fast.
This is a great addition to your TBR!
Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this ARC!
Happy Reading!

I always love Serena Bells books and this one was no exception! It was so good! It was fun to see a male as a wedding planner this time. Eden & Rhys had great chemistry and I love how they are thrust together in the most u foreseen circumstances.

Eden is getting married at Hott Springs Eternal, and the man in charge of making it happen is none other than Rhys - the divorce attorney who once represented her ex-husband. When Eden is jilted at the altar, Rhys is the one who steps in, and the two of them end up on a cross-country road trip to retrieve her handmade quilts… currently locked in her ex’s trunk.
I adore this series, and each installment somehow manages to be as good as, or even better than, the last. Serena Bell has a real gift for character chemistry and sparkling banter. The quirky family dynamics, the strange stipulations in the grandfather’s will, the over-the-top setup — it’s all a little wild, but Bell makes it work beautifully.
This book in particular has everything I want: character growth, offbeat charm, great pacing, and a genuinely fun romance. I’m already looking forward to the next (final?) book and finding out who’s been sabotaging everything behind the scenes.
Big thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC - I’ll be recommending this one widely!

Running Hott
By: Serena Bell
Does forever really exist?
📚💕⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💕📚
Oh my grandpa Hott is at it again! When two people are Seemingly so different is forever even a possibility? Why did Rhys’s grandpa need to force something so horrible? Truth he knew I’d never let the family down. Sneaky man! Then Rhys meets Eden and his past interactions as her ex’s lawyer makes everything more complicated. This book was amazing and so well thought out. The author writes with so much intensity and emotion pulled from each book it’s felt page after page. Some are quick witted story lines are so perfect and lets you believe you have a front row seat. So being able to read this love story didn’t disappoint. The authors ability to have two separate individuals struggling in their everyday life and try to navigate someone else’s thoughts, needs and desires was intense and gives all the fills.
Authors Blurb: A jilted bride. A jaded divorce lawyer. A full tank of gas. What could go wrong?
Rhys: As a cutthroat New York City divorce lawyer, it’s my job to end marriages. Lifetime commitment? It’s for the birds. I do everything in my power to avoid it…until my grandfather’s will says that to save our family’s land, I have to become a wedding planner.
Worse, my first client is Eden Becker. She’s the sunshine-y disaster whose ex-husband I represented a few years ago in their divorce. Eden’s first marriage was a nightmare, so why does she think another one is a good idea?
Turns out, I’m not wrong. Her jerkwad fiancé jilts her, and as her wedding planner, I’m also her getaway vehicle. Now we’re on the road together—and all my complicated feelings about this beautiful, naive optimist are in the car, too. Along with a wild attraction I’ve been fighting since we first faced off across a conference table.
If this road trip goes on too much longer, I’m going to do something I’ll regret forever.
Like fall in love.
This book has everything I love in a book. Then you add that it's beautifully written and believable. It is easily a five star read. Written in dual POV this story flows so incredibly well that the next thing you know you’re 80% into the book and loving every second of it. The believable way the characters interact is perfect. Run, Hop, Jump or use your (1 click) finger to do whatever you have to do and get this amazing book. It'll break your heart, you'll want to scream with frustration and it'll let you discover that love just might conquer all. The chemistry is steamy and sweet and oh so romantic.
Thanks Netgally for letting me read and review.📚💕

I really enjoyed this book - getting to see characters from previous books pop up is such a treat, I love an interconnected series.
Rhys had some great development throughout the story - it was also really good to see his perspective as we could therefore see his real motivations and understand how he had the reputation he had at the beginning of the book. I also thought Eden's development was well written, although it may have been good to see a little more of her relationship with Paul prior to the beginning of the story.
I look forward to the next book in the series - I felt like the chapter where Rhys went to see Tucker really set that up well.

Rhys is forced by his grandfather's will to work as a wedding planner instead of his real job as a divorce lawyer. His first client is Eden- whose husband he represented a few yrs ago. She was jilted again and he had to be her getaway vehicle. ...
Love this sunshine-grumpy romance. Rhys and Eden are terrific together. Enjoy the fun, romance. Love the whole family too.
Thanks to the publisher for the arc.

I'm seriously obsessed with this romantic series by Serena Bell. She writes with magic because I'm completely in love with the characters she's developed.
Rhys is a very yummy lawyer. Eden, one sexy and unique FMC. Their chemistry was out of this world. I found their story and hardships believable, and it made sense for their growth as people and how their story unfolded.
The spice was perfectly laid out and a lot of fun to read.
My favorite part, though, was the clever plot. It was just so much fun and entertaining while still ripping at my heart with emotions. Rhys's lines- holy mackerel. I adored all of it.
Seriously, so well done and a really beautiful love story that I never predicted how it ended, but absolutely loved the ending.
And now I'm desperate for the next brother's story!!!

Downloaded it this afternoon and finished it this evening. I couldn’t put it down! I had to keep reading to find out more! This is my first by this author and even though it would be best to read them in order I went ahead and got all the rest before Running Hott! I loved it. Rhys and Eden were just perfect. And perfect for each other. I loved the whole family! I laughed and cried during this book! Rhys is a big ole teddy bear even when he doesn’t want to admit it or think it at first and never ever wants to get married or be in love. Eden has been jilted one too many times. You can’t help but want everything for these two. The suspense of what is next is also great. We get Tucker’s story but I can’t believe we have to wait so long for it! This is a great series and I love this author already! Can’t wait to read more!
