SYNOPSIS:
Put a finger down if you’ve ever been a single woman who got stuck in a New York City elevator in the middle of a summer blackout with your former high school sweetheart—whom you haven’t seen in years—while pregnant with a baby that isn’t biologically yours. And you can’t believe how handsome that blast from your past is, so you unwittingly flirt with him a little even though your life is so crazy complicated you’re barely keeping your head above water, but everything about him makes you think you could totally still be in love with him.
*puts a finger down*
What? Just me?
Needless to say, my current status is thorny. And no, I didn’t miss how close that word is to another one.
Even though he’s the epitome of tall, dark, and incredibly handsome, Remington Winslow has been a single bachelor for most of his life. It’s clichéd and basic—until you consider the fact that once upon a terrible time, he got left at the altar.
He doesn’t do relationships. He definitely doesn’t fall in love.
And I’m just trying to survive a tangled web of unexpected motherhood and running one of the top real estate firms in the city that never sleeps.
He’s the jaded guy who doesn’t want to settle down, and I’m the career-focused woman with more baggage than a 747 can hold.
We’re just two friends who used to be in love.
Now, if someone would tell my hormones I’m not a teenager anymore, I’d be set.

REVIEW:
When I need to read something that’s guaranteed to make me laugh, make me smile, something light-hearted and sexy and romantic, Max Monroe is one of the first authors that comes to mind. There hasn’t been a single story of theirs that I haven’t thoroughly enjoyed. Their romantic comedies are always hilarious, but they also pack a one-two punch of steam and story. With their imaginative, creative plots, endearing characters in romances that are as heart-pounding as they are heart-tugging, Max and Monroe hit the mark every single time. Skimming the line of ridiculous, their brand of humor is of the laugh out loud variety, so considered yourself warned should you find yourself reading one of their books in public.
The Redo is the fourth and final book in the Winslow Brothers series and is Remy’s story. A jilted groom, Remy is moody, broody and extremely anti-commitment. Maria has overcome a lot, and she’s come out the other side as a focused, career-driven single mom—with a heartbreaking twist. Remy and Maria were high school sweethearts who went their separate ways. Decades later, at a pretty inopportune time, fate steps in puts them back together. This is where the fun begins as this relationship is revived.
The Redo was an entertaining mix of sweet, sexy romance and smiling from ear-to-ear humor that I crave from Max Monroe. An absolute pleasure to read, I devoured Remy and Maria’s story with a racing heart while I swooned in my seat on the sofa. Five smooches from me for The Redo by Max Monroe!
