Just Exes by Charity Ferrell is a fun book. From the beginning I was invested And I knew it was going to be a good one. This is the second book I have read by Charity Ferrell. I really enjoy her writing style and was not disappointed! I like that each character had some growth they had to go through. Lots of drama but low on angst! I love that Lauren is a wise ass. That’s my favorite!! Anyway I enjoyed it and look forward to others by Charity. 4 star rating.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Just Exes by Charity Ferrell is part of the Blue Beech Series but can absolutely be read as a standalone.

Lauren and Gage haven’t seen each other in years, ever since Lauren broke Gabe’s heart without telling him why. Gage’s life from there has only gotten much more difficult. Once he’s back in Blue Beech, he doesn’t tell anyone what he’s been through. Lauren and Gage’s first encounter was not pleasant but since then it seems like she keeps running into him every time she turns around. Gage has promised to hate Lauren for the rest of his life but now that they spend so much time around each other, will he be able to keep that promise? Secrets come out finally and it’s up to Gage and Lauren to see if they can really give it another shot or not? Will they still be just exes?

I absolutely loved this book. Lauren is quick witted even when she’s hurting. She’s loyal which was so evident when reading the book. Gage couldn’t help his protective instincts toward Lauren which really showed how much he still loved her even when he was saying otherwise. When everything was revealed, I was shocked. I didn’t see those twists coming. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time though. This book has everything!

Just Exes is the story of Lauren and Gage. When Lauren’s apartment burns down, Gage arrests her for starting the fire. This is how they run into each other, years after Lauren broke Gage’s heart. Even thought its been years since they’ve seen each other, some feelings just never go away. It’s an “I hate that the I love you” situation. I went into this thinking it was going to be another exes get back together book, but I wasn’t pleasantly surprised to see that it was so much more than that. They each have their own things they are keeping from each other, but it doesn’t keep the two apart. .This is the first I’ve read of Charity Ferrell, and I was not disappointed.

Just Exes is the second book I’ve read by this author, having really enjoyed Just One Night I was looking forward to Just Exes and seeing what Lauren’s own story had to offer.
I don’t read many second chance romance stories as I tend to find the obstacles that keep these couples apart redundant and frustrating. I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect from this book. Just Exes was so much more than a second chance romance and I am glad I cast aside my preconceived notions. I found myself cheering Lauren on from beginning to end and the obstacles that she and Gage faced were nothing less than exciting.
I have to admit I really enjoyed the role Kyle played in the story, he was an excellent friend and his relationship dynamic with Lauren was well played out.
Just Exes has a little bit of everything for the avid reader, danger, drama, passion, romance, the list goes on. I’m definitely looking forward to reading more from Charity Ferrell.

I love Charity Ferrell’s books and this one didn’t disappoint. This particular story had me hooked from the prologue! This is one of those stories that stay with you long after reading it.

This story will definitely take you on one emotional rollercoaster. We meet Gage and Lauren. Both were childhood sweethearts until Lauren walked away right before college. Gage ran off but is now home, bitter, and a cop. He came back home to forget and to heal. Unfortunately, or fortunately, he runs into Lauren (which he had to arrest). Both hate one another and show it but the love and the chemistry is still there. As the time goes on the feelings of attraction grow but both are holding secrets and these secrets can make or break their relationship!

This was a wonderful second chance romance where it does prove that there is a fine line between love and hate!

“Just Exes” is the third book in the Blue Beech series by Charity Ferrell but can be read as a standalone as I did. This wonderful story of love, loss and forgiveness is about Gage and Lauren, High school sweethearts who didn’t last. Gage has tried to move on with his life and pursued his dream of becoming a cop while Lauren followed her dream of being an ER nurse. Ten years of space stands between them when they see each other again after Lauren’s apartment complex catches fire and Gage in on the scene, to arrest Lauren. This story is so much more than your normal boy meets girl or boy and girl hate each other(but do they really?) type books I have read in the past. This story is deeper and more emotional than one would think from its description. I couldn’t stop reading this book. I got completely pulled into the story and loved it! The depth of the story and characters was so beautifully written. I can’t say a whole lot more about that because I don’t want to ruin any of it with details here, but do yourself a favor and lose a few hours to this book. As I mentioned, I didn’t read the previous stories in the series about Lauren’s brothers, but after reading this book I think I have to! I love the family that Charity Ferrell has written about and can’t wait to find out more! Five obvious stars to “Just Exes” by Charity Ferrell!

I loved this story!!! This book gave me all the feels I look for in a good story. I laughed, I cried, I got angry, and I even swooned. Lauren and Gage have so much history, love, and hurt. Can they find their way back to each other? Will Gage trust that Lauren won’t hurt him again. Is he able to tell Lauren the secret he’s keeping from everyone except his dad. Will Lauren tell him the real reason she broke up with him all those years ago.I enjoyed the banter between these two and the sexual tension is off the charts!!! I couldn’t put this book down once I started reading. I became so invested in this story and the characters, that it felt like I was experiencing their lives right along with them. I can’t say enough good things about the feelings I experienced while reading this book. I highly recommend reading this awesome story!!!

A LEGIT PAGE TURNER!! Just Exes is a book written by Charity Ferrell and it is a great story! Lauren and Gage were high school sweethearts until it was time for college. Gage planned on following Lauren so that she could pursue her dreams to become a nurse. Lauren had other plans and decided that she wanted to go alone. So for years Gage has had built all of this hate toward her and then he moves back home to be with his dad. The first encounter these two had after all these years apart…Gage arrests Lauren. Then of course, all the feelings that they had for each other years ago start to come forward and things start to develop again. However, during the time apart Gage has become a different person. A person that Lauren doesn’t recognize anymore. Gage doesn’t want to let her in because he doesn’t want to taint her with all of his demons. But there is no stopping Lauren and when she wants something…she gets it. This is definitely a HEA and it has some seriously sexy scenes. Why yes, they were definitely hot! They were also very loving and very well written. I loved the characters in this book, both main and secondary. They were all likeable characters and I could relate to them as well. There were some tear jerker scenes that you really did need the tissues for. This book was so believable and it felt so real. I truly thought I was a part of the story line. I cannot wait for the next book in the series!

Just Exes is not my first time reading Charity Ferrell’s work. She never fails to draw me into her novels and make me think about them long after I finish them. This one was no different, but I would have to say it made me a bit more frustrated than her others. I think I just had a more difficult time relating to the characters. It did not affect the book though, it was still fantastic and I would still recommend it along with her others.

In this one we get the story of Lauren and Gage. These two have a bit of a second chance romance thing going on. It is NOT an easy road to this second chance though, and I promise you that you will not see the type of heartbreak that will come for these two. I was shouting so many times at my kindle. These two just couldn’t communicate to save their souls. But anyways, it made for a great novel in the end ultimately and I was fascinated that they ended up where they did. I look forward to seeing where Charity takes us next.

Just Exes was a very well-done second chance romance. It definitely gave me the feels. I experienced their heartbreak with them, felt the push and pull, the hesitation and love. Added to it are a couple of secrets that made me cry a bit. Even though I had started to figure some things out, it was still surprising and sad when everything was revealed. I really got into Lauren and Gage’s story. They deserved their happy ever after. In fact, it made me more interested to read Lauren’s brothers’ stories.

Just Exes By Charity Ferrell is a amazing read of second chances. Holy cow my emotions were all over the place while reading this book. Lauren and Gage have a past together but they also have separate pasts and secrets. While there are some twists and turns I was on the edge trying to figure out what happens next. This isnt my first read by this author and most certainly not the last. This story pulled at my heart strings and had me mad at times Can these two have a relationship after they shared a past?I highly recommend reading this book.

Just Exes was a good 4 star read.

The story starts with Lauren being accused of starting her apartment on fire, when her landlord calls the police she is shocked to see who shows up. He’s back in town?

Gage has been avoiding Lauren since he returned to town, but when he showed up to a possible arson he is surprised to see who the accused is. I have to say I had a LOL moment when he cuffed her and took her away.

Lauren broke Gage’s heart years ago and he’s never gotten over her. Gage also has some very heartbreaking demons from his past that he has been carrying with him. My heart broke for him and what he went through.

Now that these two have reconnected can they get back what they once had? What will Gage do if he finds out why she broke his heart?

My emotions were all over the place with this second chance romance. I was pulled in right from the beginning. I really liked both Gage and Lauren even if I didn’t always agree with some choices they made. The things these two have gone through really tugged at my heart strings. I loved how Lauren gave as good as she got it from Gage, I had some lol moments. The secondary characters added a great element to the story. I really enjoyed this book and I’m looking forward to what’s coming next.

Just Exes by Charity Ferrell is a truly emotional, heartfelt and poignant romance! It’s by far my favourite by this author and if I could I would certainly rate it more than a 5-star. It was a phenomenal story that captivated me from the start. I got so swept up in the storyline that I ended up reading it in one sitting as I couldn’t bring myself to put it down. Gage and Lauren’s relationship is complex and full of so many secrets, yet their chemistry remains just as strong as ever.

Just Exes is truly a never a dull moment read, there was always something going on which kept me on my toes and fully engaged. I was filled with so many emotions while reading their story, emotions that had me in tears, emotions that had my heart breaking and emotions that had me feeling hopeful for the two of them. Their story is one I won’t soon forget.

I would absolutely recommend this book to others, it’s a romance read that should not be missed! I’m already looking forward to diving in to my next Charity Ferrell novel!

Just Exes is a second chances story by Charity Ferrell. It is not really part of any series but still, the heroine is the little sister of Hudson and Dallas who we met in Just Her Bodyguard and Just One Night where we also got the first glimpses of her. So go ahead and read it as a standalone and I am sure if you have read Hudson and Dallas’ books then you know what the writer might have in store for us!
Just Exes is the story of Lauren Barnes (aka Satan as she is called by one of Gage’s friends) and Gage Perry. These two were each other loves in high school and for some reason Lauren broke up with him, for no reason!!! I really did not like that we had to wait sooo long into the story to find out what the reason was and …. Hmm… was it really worth 10 years of separation?! Well, maybe, we humans are very bad at dealing with our issues so who the heck knows…
There is a lot of pain in this story, pain that goes back for years … it also gives us a rollercoaster story that leaves you at the edge of your seat until you come to the last page … and it is not just Lauren and Gage that make the story but also all those crazy and entertaining support characters aka friends! I hope the writer will give us more stories where we can meet up with them or maybe some of them get their own story! What else does one need than more secrets and deception and love, first chances or second …

This is what happens when you mix friendship with romance. This book is all about second chances.

Lauren works as a nurse at the local hospital. She is trying to get on her feet and better herself. Her apartment is burned down and she has been blamed. Her landlord wants her charged for the fire. Because she was wanting out of the lease. Problem with this is she was not even home the time of the fire. She also is struggling with dating, as it is not for her. She had her chance and she let him go.

Gage transfers to the police department, in his hometown. So he can be near his father. When called out to arrest someone for starting the fire, he discovers it Lauren. The woman that broke his heart all those years ago. He still is angry at her, but he also still loves her.

Charity Ferrell has written a fun and funny story of second chances. I love the characters in her story. This story caught my interest of page one and I could not put it down. It has so many feels, love, hate, romance, suspense and tears. Just the right amount of angst to keep you reading. Way to go Charity Ferrell

This is the first book that I have read by this author and it won’t be my last! This book is chalked full of angst it was almost too much for my taste. The two main characters are Lauren and Gage. They were Exes that ran into each other again and not in a good way! This story had those up and down rollercoasters of I hate him, But i still love him. I hate her, but I still love her. But with that being said, I did like the banter between them. It was funny and good banter helps me like the characters more. Even with all the bickering and ups and downs, i was hoping they were going to get a second chance. I just didn’t know if they’d kill each other before that happened.
I would recommend this to a friend.

Just Exes by Charity Ferrell is a five star novel. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this novel and seeing how the characters interacted throughout the entire book. Gage and Lauren dated in high school. When Lauren left him at 18, he didn’t know why or what to do with himself. He decided a move was in order and left without a trace. Many years later, he returns to his hometown where he keeps his return home a secret from Lauren. When she finds out, she is not happy. She has never been able to get over him, but has done her best to keep that secret hidden. As they keep getting thrust back into each other’s lives, they have to figure out how to cope and learn how to deal with all their feelings that they have tried so hard to suppress.

“Maybe that’s when you know your love for someone is real. You’d gladly take every ounce of their pain and lift it onto your shoulders. You’d rather be the one to suffer, the one taking each stab to the heart, than watch them hurt. Loving someone means their pain is your pain, and you’re there to carry them when they’re down.”

Charity Ferrell surprises me every time I read one of her books. She has written a story with twists that you just don’t see coming. A story that wraps you up and keeps you turning the pages.
Lauren is the female main character who is funny, strong and seems a little down on her luck, at least in the beginning. She is tough and loves hard. She thinks of others and wears her feelings on her sleeve. Gage is the male main character who is also funny, tough and loves hard. And he’s holding a grudge. Lauren broke Gage’s heart just after they graduated high school and the way Ferrell writes, we feel every ache.

I love this second chance story. I love the secrets they have been kept but the consequences from those secrets ripped me open. This story had some major heartache! Luckily Ferrell likes happily ever afters as much as I do!

This story wasn’t all doom and gloom, there were time when I actually laughed out loud. The situation with the Sierra is hilarious:

“I’ve never wanted to tackle someone so hard in my life.”

Another highly recommended story.

Just Exes is written by Charity Ferrell and I have read a few of her books and I simply adored this second chance romance. I fell in love with Ms. Ferrell’s writing when I read ‘Just One Night’ (Book #1) and ‘Just Her Body Guard’(Book #2), and when I saw this book there was no question, I knew I just had to read it. I have to say that this book was everything I had hoped for and expected from this great author. The characters are well written and amazing even with the emotional turmoil they go through. We also get to see the other amazing characters from books 1 and 2.
Lauren runs into her ex that she hasn’t seen in nearly a decade is never a good time. Running into your ex while he’s arresting you is humiliating. The handcuffs close around my fists at the same time he promises to hate me until he takes his last breath. I can’t blame him. He pleaded for me not to walk away. He doesn’t know leaving him broke my heart as much as it did his. It wasn’t for me. Rather, it was for someone else.
Gage skipped town after Hurricane Lauren obliterated his heart. Coming home was a hard choice he had to make. Arresting her isn’t. She has no idea of the demons he carry with him now. No idea that he is a new man. Two women ruined him. One he gave his heart to. The other punished him for it,
I highly recommend this book…

Just Exes is a another read in Blue Beech Series from author Charity Ferrell.
This is my fourth read from this author and I still continue to enjoy them read after read, and in fact, I think she continues to make them get better and better. This author has an incredible writing style that captivates you, has you following the journey of these characters until the very end, so much so you don’t want to put the read down.

Everything about her books continues to captivate you through the entire read. I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump lately but this most definitely got me out of it. I was totally hooked with this read, it was an emotional rollercoaster of emotions and a rollercoaster of a journey for both of our characters Gage & Lauren. I was on the edge of my seat wondering what these two could be hiding from each other, and also hoping that I was something that they could both overcome TOGETHER. But I was definitely not expecting it to take that heartbreaking turn!
These two have been through a lot more than you originally think, but I’m glad these two get the chance to tell their story. A story of second chances, heartbreak, loss, pain, love, passion, anger. But boy oh boy have these two characters got an undeniable chemistry and connection that cannot be ignored by each other or others in their lives. These two are destined to be together.

I absolutely loved each of these secondary characters in their own way – Lauren the strong women, that puts others happiness before her own, and is determined to always help others, just so happens to come back into Gage’s life when he most definitely needs her, he just doesn’t realise that through his hate, pain & guilt. Gage, on the other hand, is strong, confident and underneath all that heartbroken, angry & broken – but what he doesn’t realise is that Lauren the only other person to cause him so much pain the only person that can possibly get him through it all. These two break down each other’s walls and helps each other fight their internal struggles. They may still have to face ups and downs in this read but you can’t help but wish & hope that they finally get their second chance and a HEA.

Along with our amazing main characters we have some brilliant secondary characters that I didn’t realise were all part of the same series, but it was good to read about Willow & Dallas, Stella & Hudson and see how their stories were progressing. It was also nice to see the friendship that Willow & Lauren had throughout this book it really helped the story along and influenced the characters in their journeys as well.

I can’t wait to see where Charity Ferrell will take this series next and whose story we will be getting next – I will most certainly be waiting for that read! I cannot wait. But until then this is a read that should not be missed and I can’t wait to see where Lauren & Gage’s story goes next.

Just Exes By Charity Ferrell. First off let me just say it took me a couple days to recover from this incredibly written story. Going in I thought I’d be get a nice easy and maybe fun exes to lovers story. Instead I got a story filled to the brim with secrets, a bit of suspense and emotions that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Lauren and Gage had everything figured out until one day it just wasn’t, secrets aren’t ever easy. I love the banter back and forth because it feels genuine and believable. The characters just clicked for me, I never felt like they didn’t fit. It’s an emotional roller coaster that I really wish I could read again for the first time. Get ready for quite the ride. It’s well written and paced nicely with characters I just fell in love with completely. I’m giving this book a five star review and highly recommend it to everyone.

Just Exes by Charity Ferrell was a great, steamy, emotional read about second chances. When I say emotional, I don’t think you understand just how emotional it gets.

I have never read a book by Charity before and I have to say, this is probably one of my top 10 reads of 2018. The characters are just amazing. Gage and Lauren have loved eachother their whole lives. One day instead of Lauren and Gage going away to college she literally breaks his heart when she breaks up with him without giving him a reason.

Gage Perry decides to move to Chicago and work on the police force there. Then after some more heart break he moves back home to Blue Beech and ends up being the arresting officer who is called when Lauren Barnes is accused of setting her apartment on fire.

Gage honestly HATES Lauren for what she did to him all those years ago but, she is also the only one he ever loved.

Gage and Lauren see a lot of eachother in the upcoming months. They even try to be “friends” but there are way to many secrets between them. Between his past in Chicago and her reasons for why she broke up with him. The chances of them being friends is very slim. The two of them are still in love with eachother but they have major problems.

Amazing 5 Star read!

My 3rd read by this author…and the 3rd of this ongoing story…I don’t know where to begin with this review. If there’s a feeling to be felt, I felt it while reading this story. I loved them all but this one? Oh My Goodness…no doubt my favorite and that’s saying a lot because the other two were AMAZING!

This author has a way of grabbing you and not letting go, I read this entire book in one sitting, this storyline completely shattered me. Now that was only part of it, it also had me laughing out loud many times, it also had me wanting to take my kindle outside and run over it a few times with a truck…Like I said if there’s a feeling, I felt it. I loved the characters from the first 2 books returning and being a pretty big part of this story, I loved the interactions between all of the characters but the dialogue between Lauren and Gage was spot on perfection.

I’m not even going to try to sum up what happened in this book, it wouldn’t be fair to those that haven’t read it yet…You do not have to read any of these in order but I highly suggest that you do because although you won’t be lost, you will really want the stories that came before. You will also want something very close to punch or throw, you will also want a couple boxes of tissues very close, and you will want a bit of time because you will not want to put this down.

I can’t even tell you how much Im looking forward to more books by this author..She is awesome and her talent for writing a story puts her in a class of her own. Read this, read all of them I promise you will not be sorry!!!

Just Exes by Charity Ferrell was an emotional second chance enemies-to-lovers book. I had to finish this book before going to bed (1 am) because you have two different events going on at the same time. How could anyone put a book down with all that happening? So yes, I went to sleep with red puffy eyes because I cried like a baby. Charity’s will draw you in after the first chapter and not let go till the very end.

Gage and Lauren’s relationship gave me everything that I love – bantering almost every time they saw each other, the heartbreaking past flashbacks and of course the HOT hate sex; which turned into reunion sex. Plus, I loved seeing Lauren’s brother again and getting updated on that was going on.

P.S. – Kyle needs his own book; I need more Kyle!!

Just Exes by Charity Ferrell is a second chance romance book. It is the story of Lauren and Gage and I was hooked from the very beginning. Lauren is a very caring person and will drop anything to help when in need. Gage is heartbroken and deep down still loves Lauren and will go to any lengths to protect her. Lauren and Gage were once a couple and things did not end well between them. But although others may think they hate each other, they still have chemistry and an attraction for each other. Will Lauren and Gage be able to work out their indifferences and fall in love for the second time? This book is a must read! This story was well written and flowed seamlessly. It was hard to put this book down. The characters are well developed and supporting characters in the story helped the storyline between the two main character.

Just Exes by Charity Ferrell is a contemporary new adult/college romance. This story was rife with hilarious banter, hi-jinks and more – the laughter was hard to control. The author wrote a terrific story that had highly entertaining characters with a mix of drama, adventure and some growth all tied together. Despite the fun of this story, there are serious moments involved and Charity Ferrell did an excellent job of combining those making them flow without effort making a truly rounded story.

I fell in love with Ms. Ferrell’s writing when I read ‘Just One Night’ (Book #1) and ‘Just Her Body Guard’(Book #2), and have since read many of her other works too- so when I saw this book there was no question, I knew I just had to read it. I am excited to say that it was everything I had hoped for or expected from this talented author- I thought it was going to be impossible for her to get me to love any characters more than I did Stella and Hudson (Just Her Body Guard)… but Lauren and Gage have certainly succeeded. This is now my favourite book of Ms. Ferrell’s, so far.
This is a beautiful and such an emotional story- extremely well written. It had me totally engrossed right from the start. I found it a sexy, slow-burning, funny, emotive and very relatable!
The characters are all so well developed and endearing. I found it easy to connect with them and their story. I was cheering them on from the sidelines the whole way through. They had both been through so much and had carried their pain for so long, my heart ached for them! But boy, these two were entertaining with their arguing, verbal jousting, and one-upmanship- their banter was hilarious at times, which did help to balance the emotional and heartbreaking moments.
The story has a great pace and a smooth flow. It was so easy read, I got through it all in one sitting.
I am very excited to see what comes next!

Thank you, Ms. Ferrell!
