Fülszöveg:
I love you, he said.
Forever, he said.
Turns out, he lied.
When he leaves me high and dry after a cross-country move, I push him out of my life as much as I can, which is hard to do when the guy who broke your heart also happens to be the most famous dude in town.
After a disastrous year, he’s aiming to rehab his reputation, and I just so happen to be aiming for a promotion at the paper.
So, we strike a deal, and it’s a win-win all around.
Besides, what’s the harm in a few dates to charity galas anyway?
He’s arrogant, a total jerk. There’s no way I’ll fall for him…again.
I used to love him. Now I hate him…I think.


*A recenziós példányt az írónő és az Inkslinger PR biztosította egy őszinte értékelésért cserébe.* 
 
Szerintem már egy dolog egészen nyilvánvaló: Teagan Hunter a romantikus-humoros regények koronázatlan királynője. Senki más könyvei nem tudnak úgy megnevettetni, mint az övéi. Annyira nagyon imádom a Text sorozatát, még sosem olvastam ezekhez hasonlót, ezek a regények kívül-belül egyediek és különlegesek. A borítók annyira gyönyörűek és színpompásak, csodálatosan jól néznek ki együtt. A történetek pedig… Észveszejtően jók. Elképesztően észveszejtően jók. Imádom a karaktereit, a cselekményeket és az üzeneteket a könyvekben. ♥ Ezek mindig feldobják a napomat. Ó, és a kiskedvencek! Majdnem elfelejtkeztem a kiskedvencekről! Én nagyon szeretem az állatokat, annyira jók a könyvekben, legfőképpen Teagan könyveiben. Mindig csak még szórakoztatóbbá teszik az egész történetet.

Before I think twice, I launch whatever’s in my hand at him, and he barks out a laugh, catching it with ease. Stupid freakin’ baseball reflexes.
“Ah, this explains why you’re extra grouchy tonight.”
I take a look at the box I launched and, yep, just my luck – I’ve thrown my tampons at him. Awesome.
“I wish they would have smacked you right in the eye – with the corner of the box, to be specific.”
“Now that,” he says, tossing the feminine products into the air and catching them without looking, “is rude as hell, Andrews.”

Szóval, a történet főszereplői Bucky és Cap. Természetesen nem ezek az igazi neveik, ezek csupán becenevek, amelyeket egymásnak adtak. Viszont az értékelésemet során ezeket szeretném használni, mert senkinek sem szeretnék semmit lespoilerezni, azt akarom, hogy nektek is meglepetés legyen a főszereplők kiléte. Őszintén megmondva, a legnagyobb meglepetés szerintem az, hogy ki a férfi főszereplő. Én javában olvastam, és már jónéhány fejezetet magam mögött tudhattam mikor rájöttem, hogy ki is az egyik főszereplő. :D Nagyon meglepett, de annyira örültem neki, hogy Teagan megírta az ő történetét is. ♥
Csak hogy minden tiszta legyen: Cap a férfi főszereplő, míg Bucky a főhősnő beceneve. Most pedig elmesélek nektek néhány dolgot ezzel a kötettel kapcsolatban. Csak egy nagyon keveset természetesen mindenféle spoiler nélkül.

Bucky: Seriously. It’s been five minutes.
Bucky: You’re totally getting off on this, aren’t you?
Bucky: You’re just staring at your screen watching and waiting for another panicked message from me.
Bucky: Whatever. I’m done. I’m blocking you.
Cap: WAIT! DON’T!
Cap: My brother came in and interrupted me. I didn’t mean to hit send yet or leave you hanging.
Cap: You still there?
Cap: Wait… are you doing what I just did to you? UNINTENTIONALLY, I might add.
Bucky: Possibly.

A Text Me Baby One More Time egy második esélyről szóló regény, de talán ezt már a kötet címe is sugallhatja nekünk. Cap és Bucky évekkel ezelőtt egy párt alkottak, és egy egészen különleges módon találtak egymásra. Viszont később történt valami kettejük között, a dolgok nem éppen úgy alakulnak, ahogyan kellene és évekig nem is beszélnek egymással. Bucky, amiatt amit tett, kifejezetten utálja a férfit, és az igazat megmondva, nem is nagyon érti, hogy mi is történt. 
Összetörték a szívét.
De nem ő az egyetlen, akivel ez megtörtént.
Ez az egész szituáció Cap számára sem egyszerű.
Bucky azt hiszi, hogy Cap utálja őt. De nagyon is rosszul gondolja.
Néhány évvel később, Cap visszatér, és ő és Bucky újra találkoznak egy kifejezetten érdekes szituációban, amiből rengeteg vicces pillanat keletkezik. A lány mindent megtett annak érdekében, hogy az élmúlt évek során, amennyire csak lehet, ignorálja a férfit, de ez most már szinte lehetetlen, hiszen bizonyos okok miatt együtt kell működniük. Egyre több és több időt töltenek együtt, és a vonzalom kettejük között abszolút tagadhatatlan.
Vajon van számukra második esély? Újra együtt lehetnek? Vagy valami csak még nehezebbé teszi kettejük helyzetét? Megtudhatjátok, ha elolvassátok Teagan Hunter Text Me Baby One More Time című regényét. Bízzatok bennem, nagyon megéri. ♥

Cap: FINE.
Cap: I… FUCK.
Bucky: You fuck? Uh… congrats?

Teagan Hunter karakterei egyszerűen zseniálisak. Bucky egy nagyszerű főhősnő, egyszerűen imádtam őt. A Text sorozat női főszereplői közül nem tudnék csak egyet kiemelni, mindannyian nagyszerűek voltak, és amikor együtt voltak... Ahh, hát egyszerűen elképesztőek, annyit nevettem rajtuk. Bucky tökéletesen illik közéjük, nagyszerű kis csapatot alkotnak együtt. ♥
Cap pedig... Bámulatos. ♥ Annyira nem számítottam erre, az írónő nagyon meglepett vele. Eddig nem éppen mondhatnám, hogy nagyon kedveltem, de most minden megváltozott. ♥ Imádom. Csak ennyit szeretnék mondani róla.
Azért is szeretem nagyon az olyan sorozatokat, amelynek mindegyik kötete más és más párt helyez a középpontba, mert ilyenkor az előző kötetek karakterei nagyon gyakorisággal visszatérnek és kapnak is kisebb szerepeket. És most is ez történt, annyira imádom őket. ♥ Az biztos, hogy még sokszor újra fogom olvasni az egész sorozatot. 

I’m sorry I didn’t give us a chance.
I’m sorry I treated you like you were nothing to me, especially when you were everything.
Most of all, I’m sorry for not believing in us like I should have.
Text me baby, one more time.

Mindent figyelembe véve, Teagan Hunter Text Me Baby One More Time című regénye hozta azt a szintet, amit az előző kötetek, sőt, bőven át is lépte azt. Szerintem ez a legeslegjobb Text kötet. Imádtam minden egyes percét, és bár most egy picit szomorú vagyok, mert ezzel elérkeztünk a sorozat végéhez is, de ez egy tényleg nagyon fantasztikus regény volt, jobb befejezést nem is tudnék elképzelni.
Ha szeretitek a romantikus-humoros regényeket, és még nem olvastátok ezeket a könyveket, akkor mindenképpen adjatok ennek az egész sorozatnak egy esélyt. Ha pedig már olvastátok valamelyik kötetet, akkor mindenképpen olvassátok el ezt is, nagyon meg fog lepni titeket ez a történet a lehető legpozitívabb értelemben véve. ♥
Öt csillagos hatalmas kedvenc. ♥

BELEOLVASÓ
Cinnamon. He smells like cinnamon. I fucking love cinnamon.
“It’s my gum,” he says, and I realize I’ve said it out loud.
Shit.
I don’t realize he’s reached out to me until his fingertips graze softly over my exposed hip, the touch causing me to jump.
“Does it hurt?”
“Huh?”
“The bruise—does it hurt? I saw you hit your hip on the corner of your desk when you attacked me.”
I glance down at where his fingers are resting against my skin, and for the first time, I notice there’s a purple mark forming.
He’s right, I did hit my hip, but I was so caught up in the moment that I didn’t care. Then during the hour-long car ride here, I was so focused on trying not to stare at him in his insanely hot baseball cap that I stared at my phone the whole time and forgot my hip was throbbing.
“I forgot about it. I didn’t realize it was starting to bruise.”
“You’ll have to save this dress for one of our later events so it can heal.”
I find his gaze again and turn my face toward his. He’s no longer staring at my hip. His swirling green and brown eyes are locked onto my own.
“You look beautiful, Denver.”
There’s something in the way he says it, something that grabs at my heart and tugs on the strings. I don’t know if it’s the way he uses my full name—something he hardly ever does—or if it’s the fire in his eyes that’s sending his words straight into my chest.
“I…”
My lips are his sole focus now.
I could recite the phone book for him and I don’t think he’d ever look away.
Worse? I don’t think I’d want him to.
“How’d you know?”
“What?”
“How’d you know this dress was going to be the one?”
With reluctance, he draws his eyes up to mine.
“If you think for a second that while you spent the last five years hating me, I’ve been blind to your body…” His hand trails down my hip, dipping way too close to my ass.
God do I hate that I want him to keep going.
“To these curves…” He moves his touch upward, his fingertips teasing me at the base of my back. “To your sheer fucking beauty…”
Light, feathery touches dance up my spine. Goose bumps break out along my skin, though I don’t think he notices.
I don’t realize he’s inched me closer to him with each dance of anticipation along my body until I feel his arousal pressed against my thigh.
His fingers curl around my neck, the touch hard and soft and everything I never knew I wanted, particularly from him.
“I’m not blind, especially when it comes to you, Bucky.”
I watch as his mouth descends toward mine, and I do nothing to stop him.
“Oh, miss! That one is stunning ! The young man has a good eye. He—”
The saleswoman pops up out of nowhere just before our mouths make contact.
Thank god.
“Oh my, I am so sorry. I didn’t mean to interrupt, Mr. Clark. I-I—”
Shep pulls away, unwinding his arm from around my back, and I miss his warmth more than I’ve ever missed anything in my entire life.
I take three healthy steps away from him, smoothing down the front of my unwrinkled dress, and try to get my breathing back to normal, refusing to look over at him for fear I’ll try to climb my way back into his arms.
Treacherous body.

ARC was kindly provided in exchange for an honest review.
 
One thing is for sure: Teagan Hunter is the queen of romcoms. Her books can make me laugh each and every time. I love her Texting series so so much, literally they always put a huge smile on my face. Text Me Baby One More Time was also amazing, however, it is a bittersweet feeling that this series had to end. 
 
Before I think twice, I launch whatever’s in my hand at him, and he barks out a laugh, catching it with ease. Stupid freakin’ baseball reflexes.
“Ah, this explains why you’re extra grouchy tonight.”
I take a look at the box I launched and, yep, just my luck – I’ve thrown my tampons at him. Awesome.
“I wish they would have smacked you right in the eye – with the corner of the box, to be specific.”
“Now that,” he says, tossing the feminine products into the air and catching them without looking, “is rude as hell, Andrews.”

So, the main characters of the story are Bucky and Cap. Of course, these are not their real names, these are only nicknames, but I woul like to use these when I write about them, because I do not want to spoil anything to anyone and I want you to be surprised. Maybe you will recognise who is one of the main character immediately, maybe not. Actually, the hero is the biggest surprise, at least for me, because I was reading and reading, and I was a few chapter in when I realized who is this character. :D I was so surprised, but I was so glad that Teagan wrote his story. ♥
Just to make everything clear: Cap is the nickname of the hero, and Bucky is the nickname of the heroine. And now, I will tell a few things about them. Just only a very few without spoilers.

Bucky: Seriously. It’s been five minutes.
Bucky: You’re totally getting of fon this, aren’t you?
Bucky: You’re just staring at your screen watching and waiting for another panicked message from me.
Bucky: Whatever. I’m done. I’m blocking you.
Cap: WAIT! DON’T!
Cap: My brother came in and interrupted me. I didn’t mean to hit send yet or leave you hanging.
Cap: You still there?
Cap: Wait… are you doing what I just did to you? UNINTENTIONALLY, I might add.
Bucky: Possibly.

Text Me Baby One More Time is a second chance romance novel, but maybe the title already tells you that. Cap and Bucky were together, and they find each other in an interesting way. But later, something happened, things do not go as planned and they never talked to each other again. Bucky pretty much hates him and what he did, and to be honest, she does not understands what happened with him.
She is heatbroken.
But she is not the only one.
This whole situation is not easy for Cap either. Bucky thinks that he hates her. But she is so wrong.
Several years later, Cap is back in town, and that's when he and Bucky meet again in a kinda funny situation. Bucky tried to deny him in the past few years as much as possible, but now, this is impossible, because they have to cooperate. They spend more and more time together, and the attraction between them is undeniable.
Is there a second chance for them? Can they be together again? Or is there something that can make things difficult for them? You can find out if you read Text Me Baby One More Time by Teagan Hunter. Trust me, it is so worth it. ♥

Cap: FINE.
Cap: I… FUCK.
Bucky: You fuck? Uh… congrats?

Teagan Hunter's character's are simply genious. Bucky is an awesome heroine, I absolutely adore her. I can not pick only one favourite female character from the Text series, they are all super fantastic, and when they are together... Ahhh, they are so incredible, they made me laugh so many times. Bucky is perfect for their little group, they are so amazing. ♥
And Cap... Super-duper swoony and dreamy. ♥ I was so surprised that he is the main character. Until reading this novel, I would not really say that he is my biggest favourite, but now everything has changed. ♥ I adore him. That's all I want to say.
I especially love interconnected series, because characters from previous books appear in more than one novels, and it is so good to read about them. And this happend in this series too, I love them so much. ♥ One thing is pretty sure: I will reread these books multiple times.

I’m sorry I didn’t give us a chance.
I’m sorry I treated you like you were nothing to me, especially when you were everything.
Most of all, I’m sorry for not believing in us like I should have.
Text me baby, one more time.

Taking everything into account, Text Me Baby One More Time by Teagan Hunter is just as amazing as the previous ones, moreover, maybe, it is even more awesome. In my opinion, it is the best book in this series. I loved reading this story, and now I am a little bit sad, because with the release of Text Me Baby One More Time, the Text series is complete, but it was such a wonderful journey, I can not imagine any better ending for this series. 
If you love romantic comedies, and if you haven't read these books yet, I can highly and honestly recommend these to you, give a chance to this series. And if you have read the previous ones, please continue reading, this story will totally surprise you in the best way possible.
Five stars huge favourite. ♥
