Wrong for Him by Christi Barth
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Christi Barth’s Wrong For Him, is a story about a group of four friends that stick together to support each other. Alex and Amelia are siblings, but when their parents died in a car crash when Amelia was 11 years old, Alex became her legal guardian. Tasked with raising Amelia, Alex became overprotective and felt the need to continue his role even after she became an adult. Teague was Alex’s best friend and had lived with him off and on before the death of his parents. Everleigh was getting over a boyfriend that she had caught cheating on, but kicked her out of the apartment. All four formed a tight family type unit. They were together at Christmas, where they had agreed not to buy presents, since all of them were down on their luck and not sure if they would even have a home by New Years. When Amelia gets an email notification, she opens it and shows the winning lottery ticket, making Alex the new owner of the Three Oaks Inn in Chestertown, Maryland. Alex decided that all four of them would be owners, and they would all start fresh with a new life.

There is one small problem with their plan. The Inn required a full overhaul. After investing all of his savings into fixing the Inn, Amelia found herself moving into the top floor of the Inn’s pool house with Teague. Everleigh had moved in with her new boyfriend, and Alex had moved in with his new girlfriend. When Amelia gets asked to speak at a county garden club, she reveals her feelings about Teague to Daisy, the grandmother of Alex’s girlfriend. Daisy tells her to try to pursue her love interest. The following day, the pair go exploring a cupola that was not rentable yet. What they find inside, causes Teague to reminisce on the care packages Amelia had sent him while he was in the military. Despite concerns about losing a friendship with Alex for Teague and even a friendship they already had, the two begin their secret romance. How long will they be able to keep their relationship a secret? If it is discovered, will the family unit get destroyed?
