Redeeming

Red Lips & White Lies, Book 2

De: Bella Matthews

Narrado por: Teddy Hamilton, Savannah Peachwood, Ava Erickson

Callen Sinclair has been the bane of my existence since I was six years old. You’d think that would have been my first red flag. I mean... you’d be wrong, but you could think it.

In my defense, my brother’s best friend also happens to be the scorching-hot tight end for the Philadelphia Kings football team. He’s cocky and confident, with a sinfully sexy smile that could make a good girl do very bad things. Lucky for me, I’ve never been a good girl.

He tried to tell me I was as off-limits as they come. But when one night and one birthday wish end in one big pink plus sign, all bets are off.

I loved Callen and Caitlin’s story! It had me emotional during the hospital scene and every time Callen went Alpha on the older Gen! Like that shit was hot! I also really loved getting to know Caitlin. She has her own friends not in the immediate circle (Callen’s Circle) though she knows and is friends with them, she’s just a little younger so that aren’t in each others direct circle all the time like some other couples. Caitlin is sassy and fierce. And I really loved that she made Callen work for her! She stood her ground. This will be a hard one to top!

Callen & Caitlin

Callen & Caitlin are PERFECT! Both members of powerful families, these two have grown up together and have always known that each other was “the one.” I love their HEA so much! This is a brother’s best friend/forbidden romance that delivers ALL the spice 🔥, banter, and family drama!!! Accidental pregnancy isn’t one of my favorite tropes, but Bella Matthews wrote it so well! It brought another level of depth to this already emotionally charged novel. I swooned, I laughed, I teared up, and had to find my hubby a few times (IYKYK) 😏 10/10 recommend! Narration is SPOT. ON!!! Teddy Hamilton as your MMC?? Chef’s kiss! Can’t wait for Leo’s story!! 💖

Amazing & Emotional

This is the second book in the Red Lips & White Lies series, and while I loved the first one, I have to say this one surpassed it. From the sizzling chemistry to the heartbreaking twists, I was hooked right from the start. Caitlin has always loved Callen, but he’s been off limits due to a promise he made to her brother. When they finally give in to their feelings, their relationship faces obstacle after obstacle, with the shocking surprise of a pregnancy adding even more tension. This book is an emotional rollercoaster in the best possible way.

Teddy Hamilton, Savannah Peachwood, and Ava Erickson deliver a phenomenal performance, bringing the story to life with so much passion and emotion. Their narration makes every moment feel immersive and real. This audiobook is definitely a must listen!

Loved this dual narration!

Honestly, anything with Teddy Hamilton is good but I absolutely loved Savannah Peachwood as Caitlin. This was such a good surprise pregnancy read and the groveling was amazinggg!!

Unpopular opinion - I love the surprise/accidental pregnancy trope! Getting to watch the romance develop during such a stressful time is just so good. Caitlin & Callen are 👩🏼‍🍳💋The groveling from Callen is some of my favorite and not to mention the touch her & ☠️. Nothing could stop him - not even her family 🫠

This audio is dual narration with the amazing @narratedbyteddyhamilton & @savannahpeachwood 😍 This pair was the perfect casting for them! I’m a sucker for Teddy’s narration and this was no exception 👏🏻

Absolutely loved it!

I loved this story and all the characters! It was fun and deep and sizzling hot at times! I read another story related to this family, The Keeper and loved that too so I figured it’d be good. I like that they loved each other from a young age but the timing and circumstances keep them apart. I did hate that she was a bit more stubborn than she had to be in my opinion but she was clearly her own person so I can’t argue with that. Collen is such a sexy wolf and I love his nickname for her. The narrarators really brought it life that much more. You have to read or listen!

So Adorable

Well I think this one is my favorite book boyfriend so far in this series. To be in love with your teen love and have them in your life and couldn't do anything about it. Love for your best friend sister is the best trope ever. This was such a cute pregnancy trope as well, which was great writing for this miscommunication trope but was done so well. I can't wait to get to the next book in this series.

I loved this!

Love a strong female who says what she wants and goes after it. She lets her family know when she’s not ok with their actions. The narrators slaaaayed! I cried with the family at the hospital and smiled during the happy moments. A great read!

Wow! Will leave you wanting more

This is one of my favorite books by Bella Mathew’s. I recommend going to her website to get the family tree. It helped me a ton. The series is based on close family and friends. I went back and started with the first generation Each book builds on the next and I love the different perspectives:)
The narrator’s are amazing. I love Teddy Hamilton! He is my favorite male narrator. I often search for books he narrates!

Sinclair men!!

Callan was everything and Caitlyn is his perfect match! The back and forth the family drama and hot cousin Jude who I need more of

Roommates with Brother’s Best Friend Football

Callen & Caitlin have known each other for years. Callen is best friends with Caitlin’s brother, so he was always around. There is a 4 year difference between these two and when they were in college, Caitlin shoot her shot but Callen shot her down. They weren’t mature enough but Caitlin saw it as being denied. Flash forward a few years and they’re now living together and their forced proximity gets harder to deny.

I’m so obsessed with these two. Caitlin loves hard and she fights hard for those she loves. Callen loves hard and doesn’t want to out that person into harms way.
