A free-spirited fashion designer. A brooding financier. A business deal that brings them back together.
Eric, my ex-boyfriend from college, was the last person I expected to walk through the door. But when my fashion company needs a financial boost, we find ourselves stuck together. Working side-by-side, memories flood and old feelings resurface.
His quiet, reserved demeanor clashes with my sassy, loveable self. And yet, when we’re thrown together, we complement each other perfectly. I can’t ignore the way he still makes my heart race.
But a deal that could change everything threatens to tear us apart. I’m faced with a choice – trust him with my heart (and my company) or lose him forever.
Stuck With My Ex Forever is a second chance clean romance. This book is a stand-alone, and you won’t be left with a cliffhanger. It is free from profanity, only contains sweet kisses, and you can expect a HEA (happily ever after) ending!

I read this book in one day! I was caught up in the story of Eric and Darcy. Their paths split when she refused his marriage proposal at the end of their college years: she chose the world of fashion design and he chose the business world. But years later they again come face to face in a chance to work in a business venture together. Other factors entered into that process but their love for each other was stronger to overcome the pressures they faced. The power of love forced them to fight for a HEA. I loved their story!
Darcy is a young woman who gave up everything after college to go and make herself a successful fashion model. She now has retired and is starting a fashion design company with her friends. They need funding and Eric comes to hear their sales pitch. Eric is Darcy's former beau, but she left him behind for the modeling career. Is there a possibility that these two could be getting a second chance? This is a sweet romance that shows that sometimes love never dies and you get a second chance to get things right.
A second chance, clean romance and the story held my interest from the start. It's sweet, full of emotions and chemistry with a realistic story line and characters. I loved the frienships and romanc and had a great time reading this one. The book is a very entertaining, heartwarming, page turning romance with a wonderful happily ever after ending.

I have never read anything by Hazel Belle before, OMG this was fantastic!! Darcy and her friends Alexa, and Rylee; own and run DARing fashions. If they want to expand they will need a financier. As they interview several, one company "Growth Capital" seems the best fit. The only trouble with that is the owner Eric; is Darcey's ex-boyfriend from college. Can everything work out? Love the plot, great setting, and strong intense interesting characters. I can't wait to read more from Hazel Belle!!!
He asked her to marry him when they were young and she said no Now he is back in her life - as an investor, She has two partners, and they are going places, But they need help. Can this possibly work out for anyones good? Or is it all about the money?? Superb book — absolutely loved it!! I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All thoughts and comments are my own.
A wonderful story of friendship, business partnerships and a second chance at love. Eric and Darcy were inseparable in college, but when he proposed she said no and never contacted him again. Hazel Belle navigates the dangerous waters between business and romance with ease. I really enjoyed this story.
College Sweethearts Darcy and Eric get a second chance at love together 8 years after Eric's public marriage proposal. Getting to seeing DARing progress as a fashion label was cool and the unresolved emotions and interactions between Darcy and Eric. The friend moments for both Eric side and Darcy's side were fun to read

This book held my interest. I enjoyed learning about the ins and outs of designing, getting manufactured, showing, modeling, the ins and outs of the fashion industry. The second chance story was a good one. I was given an ARC and this is my honest opinion.
This story is interconnected with Second Chance Weekend. It can be read as a standalone, but you will probably get more out of the girls` history and how the business began if you have already read Second Chance Weekend.
Eric and Darcy dated through out college but there was a huge embarrassing misunderstanding the night before graduation. Fast forward and SURPRISE the finance company Darcy and her friends contacted to help them grow their business is owned by none other than her ex, Eric.
Will they be able to work together? Can they get past the hurt and be friends? Maybe more?
This was a clean easy read that hooked me from the start. I hope that Alexa has a story of her own soon.
