The Morelli Sisters #5
Let Me Say It Again
Reddington Lyons seemed to want one thing—me.
He’s my ex-boyfriend’s older brother, my fake fiancé, my ex boss, and the one man I was pretty sure could make me believe in the one thing I’d given up on. Love.
Red was nothing more to me than a means to a bi-weekly paycheck. Until I dropped his dry cleaning off at the same time he was hosting a party.
He was trying to impress a potential investor, lied that we were engaged, and then somehow convinced me to go along with said lie.
The only problem? He was relentless, always got his way, and made me want to pull my hair out. Yet, every time we faked it up as a happily engaged couple, we grew closer.
The night of our engagement party—we crossed the line.
We were forced to spend a long weekend together in Newport and, guess what, we crossed a line.
Then we had to live together. His house was by no means close quarters, but it wasn’t big enough for our growing desire for each other.
When all is said and done, I have to call it like it is, and the truth is, I don’t think I can imagine Red as anything but my fiancé. Didn’t catch that? Let me say it again—my very real fiancé.
Let Me Say It Again is a ex’s brother, black cat x doberman, fake engagement, billionaire x personal assistant, secret crush, close proximity, slow burn, angst and banter-filled romantic comedy with no third-act breakup and a happily ever after.

This is my second and favorite read of Dani Ryan’s to date!!
While reading book 4 in the series, Better Left Unsaid, Jade quickly became my favorite of the sisters!! Her background isn’t as neat and clean as the others, having been a secret child who was then subsequently adopted out. Because of this, Jade has commitment and trust issues that ran very deep and often didn’t want to speak about her problems with anyone for fear that they would leave thinking she wasn’t worth her “burden”. It was great to see her open up (begrudgingly haha) and start to trust someone and the idea of commitment that won’t stab you in the back.
And Red. I loved how he was protective of Jade from the beginning, whether it was important donors/partners or his own family. Red never saw Jade as less than and loved that she wasn’t just after him for what he could do and give her. In fact, she got angry often when he tried to plan expensive things for her, definitely making her stand out from the other women in his past.
I loved their snarky back and forth!! They both used getting a rise out of the other way basically as foreplay and that definitely worked for me!! I also loved all the stupid little lines that Red used that were so ridiculous but hilarious and just what Jade needed to stop overthinking.
I also loved the peace they gave each other when their guards were fully down and they were just allowing themselves to be; no fake engagement, no titles, no keeping up a wall or a façade. I loved how sweet and patient Red was, while I loved how Jade learned that she could find solace in another person without them thinking she was a burden.
I love the feminist undertone that ran throughout the book. From little things Red noted about “Was this what women put up with – being told they were worthless without a man” to a bunch of Jade’s iconic quotes, the undertone definitely was enjoyed by this feminist 😉
Of course, I loved getting to see Dom and Maria from Better Left Unsaid, especially now that they are growing their little family 😊 And while I don’t know them as much, seeing the other sisters, especially when they all came together for help and shenanigans, was also great.
As always, the spice was perfectly paced and detailed for this romantic series full of humor and heart.
Thank you to Dani Ryan for the opportunity to read this book. The thoughts and opinions expressed above are honest and my own.
4.25 stars!

ARC Review -
This was the first book I have read by Dani Ryan and I really enjoyed her writing style. It was fun and light hearted but allowed you to connect with each of the main character on a different level. The inner monologues were fun - I love knowing what goes through a characters head.
Jade and Red had epic chemistry from the very beginning when things were not even close to being an option. However they are both still aware of their attraction to one another. Things change quickly when Jade finds herself engaged to her boss (also her ex boyfriend’s older brother) so that he can close a business deal. When they decide to help each other out in more ways than one their relationship starts to shift.
Jade was an absolute firecracker - her character was honest and raw but she was also vulnerable with her heart. Perhaps too much so. This book had a slight miscommunication trope which I usually hate but given what we learn about Jade her lack of openness with her feelings is warranted.
Red - your typical broody, grumpy millionaire. He had everything he could possibly want and money to buy what we he desires besides one thing…his personal assistant, Jade. The mouth on this man made me blush…giggle…kick my feet! He was so protective and proud of Jade and told anyone who thought otherwise where to go. Red quickly realises his fake engagement may not be so fake…

I absolutely ADORE Jade and Red. Their story was so jam packed with banter, spice, and sweet little moments that had me hooked from beginning to end. I sat down and finished this book in one day because I just couldn’t make myself put it down. Jade is so incredibly headstrong and not afraid to be her true self, which made Red her perfect match. He wasn’t afraid to push back and chip at the walls around her and bring out her soft side, while reminding her that he loves her the way she is.
Thank you so so so very much to Dani Ryan for sending me an eARC and physical copy of this book❤️

Absolutely loved this book!
Jade and Red had amazing chemistry from the very beginning. But they still aren’t aware of their attraction to each other but things change quickly when Jade is engaged to her boss who is also her ex boyfriend’s brother but it’s only to close a business deal.
I loved both characters and their undeniable attraction to each other.

Dani Ryan has done it again! Jade may be the odd one out when it comes to the Morelli sisters but getting stuck in situations she can’t talk herself out of seems to be a theme with her. First, she’s working for her ex’s older brother - cause what could go wrong there. Then she’s at the wrong place at the wrong time because she gets roped into being the fake fiancee of her boss… yes the ex’s brother. And was it mentioned that he is rich and she is not… she feels like she could never belong in his world… the question is, does he even care?

First of all I just gotta say the spice was off the charts in this one, like a 6/5🌶️🔥
I absolutely loved the “fake engagement” trope and the chemistry between Jade and Red in this book!! The playful banter between the two was very entertaining and I loved how they could go from teasing, to flirty, to spicy, to romantic and it all felt natural for them and not forced.

🔥MMC chases the FMC in the rain to win her back

Jade Logan always thought she was an only child, only to discover (a couple of books ago) that she has four half-sisters. I’ll jump right in now and say I don’t like the word half-sisters; they all share DNA from their mother, so they are sisters. No need to put qualifiers on it.
Ahem.
Anyway, it’s clear early on that Jade does not have a good self-image. She relegates herself to meaningless one-night stands on a pretty regular basis, as if she’s not worthy of anything better. She’s been hurt so many times that she has just shut down her emotions. Well, not all of her emotions. She’s still really good at being contentious, even to her own detriment.
Reddington “Red” Lyons (also her boss for part of the book) has her number, though; he can see through all the posturing, and he doesn’t back down from her barbs and her grumpiness. Because good grief, she is grumpy. And when Red blindsides Jade by saying she’s his fiancee in order to please a possible investor for his company, she’s not exactly on board, but plays along at first.
Of course, after a while, her feelings are no longer fake, though Jade willfully believes that they are. She doesn’t do feelings. Her walls are built so high that even Spider-Man would have trouble scaling them. She self-sabotages well before anyone can get near her true heart.
Let’s throw in the complication of Red’s younger (jerk) brother being Jade’s ex; this idiot definitely put the nail in the coffin of Jade’s self-esteem. And it breaks my heart to see how she views herself, because her ex made it very clear that she wasn’t the kind of person that he would marry. It makes me wonder how different she might have been if she’d grown up with her sisters.
Basically, Jade has programmed herself to believe love isn’t real, and even if it was, she didn’t deserve it, because that’s easier than taking a chance again on a relationship. Good thing that Red is aware of all of these things, and he shows her how much love and care she deserves, even though he doesn’t always just hand it to her. He knows her better than she thinks, and he’s not going to let her steamroll him, even as he does wonderfully thoughtful things for her.
The chemistry between these two is flaming hot, though Jade tries to throw water on it several times. But Red isn’t going down that easy. He knows what he wants, and he’s going to work for it. He’s going to make her see that she belongs in this world, with him.
There are some lovely scenes with Jade and her sisters, and it’s hilarious seeing the Morelli girls from Jade’s point of view. I’m going to miss this series, but it kind of feels like maybe, just maybe, there are some brothers in Dom’s family that might be worthy of their own stories.
I really identified hard with Jade’s negative self-talk. When one is consistently bullied or cut down, one tends to start believing that the nay-sayers are right. It’s hard to reprogram the brain to get out of that rut, believe me. It definitely takes work, and support from people who love you just as you are. It warms my heart that the people who matter most to Jade are the ones who are always going to be there for her, and that she will finally find inside her the person that she is meant to be.
Ahem.

🔥 Billionaire romance
💗 Ex’s brother
🔥 Fake engagement
💗 She’s his personal assistant
🔥 He falls first
💗 Black cat x Doberman vibes
🔥 Only one bed
This was the first book I’ve ever read by Dani Ryan and I really enjoyed it! I always get worried jumping into a series that I haven’t read, even if they are advertised as standalone, but they did an amazing job of making this book stand out and hold its own.
Jade is Red’s personal assistant who just so happens to be dropping off his dry cleaning during a get together at his house. Red is trying to get an investor for his company, but the investor, Mark, disapproves when he finds out Red isn’t married. Panicked, he sees Jade and tells Mark that they’re actually engaged. Jade is obviously shocked, but goes along with it. As they continue their charade until Mark decides on if he wants to invest or not, Jade really starts to fall for Red. Red has had a secret crush on Jade for quite awhile and he spends the whole time during their fake engagement trying to show her why she should be with him for real.
I really had a love/hate with Jade. Hate only because I hated that she felt she wasn’t worth anyone’s time and that she wasn’t good enough. I really just wanted to give her the biggest hug 😭 and love because she was very independent and as the book progressed, she really opened up to not only Red, but also her sisters. And Red was amazing for making sure she knew that she was everything he wants and that he doesn’t want her to change who she is. He enjoys her sass and snarky attitude. It was nice for Jade to find someone who finally wanted her as she was 🥹
Red and Jade were just too cute 💗 I wouldn’t turn down an epilogue of them to see where they ended up if Dani Ryan ever wanted to write one 😏👀

Thank you so much to Dani Ryan for graciously providing me with an ARC of the conclusion to our beloved Morelli sisters’ journey.
There is nothing I love more than an ex-boyfriend’s older brother trope, sign me up every time!
What I adored about Jade is how unapologetically herself she is. If you tried to fit her into any mold, she’d break it and chuck it at you with her middle finger in the air. She’s strong, outspoken, and unafraid to go after what she wants, even when she’s a little lost.
Red was confident, funny, and the perfect complement to Jade. His POV showed just how captivated he was by her, and it was everything.
Their chemistry was off the charts—it practically oozed off the page. Watching them navigate their fake-dating and fake-engagement journey was such a wild ride. They knew what they wanted and weren’t afraid to act on it, making this story so satisfying.
I also loved seeing all the Morelli sisters again and witnessing their fierce bond and unwavering support for each other. It reminded me exactly why I’ve loved this series from the start.
This finale was the perfect blend of steam, heart, and humor, wrapping up the series in a way that felt so true to these characters we’ve come to love. 🖤

Fake dating tropes are my absolute favorite, so I was really excited for this book. It pulls you right into the fake engagement farce and keeps you completely invested. I’m also so happy we got more of Jade! I especially loved the focus on Jade’s mother, Regina, and how it felt like Jade grew closer to her through the memories others shared.
The chemistry between Red and Jade was incredible—Red is completely gone for her from the very beginning, and I loved watching that unfold. I also enjoyed how it started as a fake engagement with benefits, then gradually turned into something real. It felt like the perfect way for Jade to open up. She’s been so closed off from love that this might have been the only path for her to recognize her true feelings for Red.
This book is bittersweet. It’s the last in the Morelli Sisters series, and while I loved this story, I’m so sad it’s over. I can’t wait to see what Dani Ryan puts out next and fingers crossed we’ll get a spin-off featuring some of the amazing side characters!

👠Let Me Say It Again (The Morelli Sisters Book 5)
💋by Dani Ryan
👠Releasing July 15th, 2025!
If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that The Morelli Sisters series is one of my top favorites EVER!! Let Me Say It Again was yet another addictive read (as usual!) and the perfect bow 🎀 to wrap up this series!
👠Jade has had her entire world flipped upside down (in the best way imaginable!) since she’s connected with the Morelli’s! While she may have found a lasting love with her half-sisters, she’s not sold on the idea of romance.
💋Enter, Reddington (Red) Lyons. The man that not only was her boss, but also just so happens to be her ex boyfriend’s older brother. 🤭 While running errands for her boss, Jade walks into quite the proposal (literally LOL) from Red… that’s right, he asks her to be his fake fiancé! 💍
👠In the hopes of closing a business deal, Red needs Jade to help him pull off the job and keeping up appearances. Only, this fake engagement starts to become much more real than either of them expected!

👠Let Me Say It Again (The Morelli Sisters Book 5)
💋by Dani Ryan
👠Releasing July 15th, 2025!
If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that The Morelli Sisters series is one of my top favorites EVER!! Let Me Say It Again was yet another addictive read (as usual!) and the perfect bow 🎀 to wrap up this series!
👠Jade has had her entire world flipped upside down (in the best way imaginable!) since she’s connected with the Morelli’s! While she may have found a lasting love with her half-sisters, she’s not sold on the idea of romance.
💋Enter, Reddington (Red) Lyons. The man that not only was her boss, but also just so happens to be her ex boyfriend’s older brother. 🤭 While running errands for her boss, Jade walks into quite the proposal (literally LOL) from Red… that’s right, he asks her to be his fake fiancé! 💍
👠In the hopes of closing a business deal, Red needs Jade to help him pull off the job and keeping up appearances. Only, this fake engagement starts to become much more real than either of them expected!

Mixed Feelings
Ok so overall it wasn’t a bad story. A bit pretty woman coded and that is not a bad thing.
What I found super annoying is that for this ENTIRE BOOK Red had real feelings for Jade but barely ever expressed them or pushed back when she pushed him away.
She was extremely Jaded from what exactly it wasn’t super clear other than the way her relationship with Nate ended. So one romance made her hate love to point she pushed him away at EVERY TURN? 🤷♀️
The last three chapters were them finally opening up to each other and then BAM one incident happens and she runs? Ugh
However his grand gesture at the end was pretty sweet.

Let Me Say It Again is the third ARC I have been able to read by Dani Ryan and is by far my favorite. Thank you to the author and Hambright PR
Jade is a little dense, but her and Red have lots of chemistry. I really enjoy that they aren’t afraid to go head-to-head with each other. All the while able to read between the lines of the other person. The Morelli sisters offer heaps of support and comedic relief that only siblings or REALLY close friends can. Some of the spice did seem out of place or random, but it wasn’t written poorly. Overall, I enjoyed it and it was a quick read!

This was my first book by Dani, and while this could be read as a stand-alone, I highly recommend reading the others in the series prior to get a better understanding of the characters. I loved this book so much! Jade and Red’s banter was top-tier that I need to go read the whole series because it was that good.
I love a ex’s brother trope so much!
If you love:
❤️Work Place Romance
💚Enemies to Lovers
❤️Fake Engaement
💚Billionaire
❤️Great Banter
💚Forced Proximity
❤️Opposites Attract
I will be thinking of this one for a while.
Thank you Hambright PR for the ARC! I official found a new series to binge.

This is my 3rd Dani Ryan read and this is also the last installment of The Morelli Sisters series. All of them are on KU and can read as standalones but once you read one you’re gonna wanna read them all!
In this book you get to learn more about Jade and follow along on her journey with Reddington ‘Red’ Lyons.
Jade has found love with her sisters but isn’t too sure about romance love. This doesn’t deter Red who also just so happens to be Jade’s ex Boyfriend’s brother so you know there’s gonna be drama.
What starts off as a fake engagement quickly starts turning into more despite Jade’s denial. Follow along with Jade as she slowly starts to believe in true love.
There’s so much banter and spice in this book and there’s never a dull moment. Dani Ryan has you turning page after page wanting to see what’s coming next.
It’s bittersweet knowing this is the last of the Morelli Sisters but I’m so excited to see what comes next from Dani Ryan. I’m so thankful I’ve gotten to ARC read this, Red has become my fav MMC from the Morelli Sisters and I just know you’re gonna love him too.

I absolutely loved this book!! I was laughing out loud more times than I could count. the banter and the spice were to die for ! Red is zaddy for sure ! Lock me up and throw away the key 😍

Thank you so much for Dani Ryan for the complimentary copy of this book!
This book will be out on July 15th!
It is very typical of me to jump into a series either in the middle or at the end. But here we are and I can confidently say that this is truly an interconnected stand alone. Each of the Morelli sisters has their own book and this one focuses on the newest Morelli sister Jade. We do learn most of her backstory and know that she is the half sister of all the other ladies.
Jade was an interesting leading lady. Reddington was an interesting love interest. So we have these two interesting characters set along with fake dating, rich society, oh and he is her former boss and her ex's brother. I will say though that Jade did make me laugh. I think though what was hard for me to wrap my head around is her constant state of back and forth. Her inner monologue would scream one thing but then her outwardness would scream another. So when the switch from fake to real happen, it kind of came out of nowhere because she had been so anti relationship. I do wish the two would have talked about what it would be like for them to be together more.
"That mouth of yours is a beautiful fucking thing."
"You have no idea the things this mouth can do."
Jade has just been so burned in the past with her relationships that she sworn off on commitment and love. She turned to one night stands and hook ups since her break up with Red's brother Nate. She had been attracted to Red but knew that he was off limits due to him being her boss. I will say in the beginning I had to suspend a little bit of reality because it would be such an HR violation for some of the things he would say to her while working - eek! But ultimately Red was such a simp for her. He just loved her for all her quirkiness and was not phased by anything she was doing. I love how he just left her be her. I do wish that they just communicated a little bit more because their chemistry was really hot. They both were insanely attractive to one another and I thought the way the authors wrote their intimate moment was really hot.
Even though I hadn't read the other books in this series, I could feel the love between all the sisters and how the Morelli's really took Jade in. I love seeing their conversations and just how they would be active in each other lives. And as I mentioned about, since this is my first in the series I do think enough backstory was to complete the full picture of the sisters.
If you are looking for a billionaire, fake engagement, ex's brother romance - give this one a read!

Can I say HOT HOT HOT?? Because that is exactly what this book is. Fake engagement, mutual denial of attraction, and all the spice you can imagine. I am so here for it.
This is the fifth book in The Morelli Sisters series, and I jumped in without having read the previous ones. While I think I would’ve had a better understanding of the sisters’ relationships if I had, the author does an excellent job of introducing them here. You don’t need to read the earlier books to enjoy this one, but considering how steamy this was, I’d recommend reading the series in order if you're looking for more of that spice!
Jade and Red have top-tier banter. It’s not the classic enemies-to-lovers vibe; it’s more like Jade being deep in denial about her feelings, while Red knows exactly what he wants and gets a thrill from pushing her buttons. It's rare to find an author who can write that kind of banter so well without veering into toxic or bullying territory.
Now, let’s talk about the author's writing style, which is very unique, and it works in the best way possible. The book is written in first person, so we get a deep look into the characters’ thoughts like in any good romance. But what really sets this apart is how the characters break the fourth wall just a little. It almost feels like we are their subconscious, which not only lightens the tone but also pulls us deeper into the story. I’ve seen this technique attempted in other books, but this is the first time I’ve seen it done well.
As for the ending, I was left wanting a bit more. It felt somewhat abrupt, but honestly, it worked for Jade and Red. Their whole relationship was fast-paced, from him hiring her as his assistant, to the fake engagement, to them getting all hot and heavy. So in a weird way, the ending matched the whirlwind nature of their story.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book, and I’m excited to dive into the rest of the series to learn more about Jade’s sisters. Thank you again for the ARC!

I am not ready to say goodbye. 🥹 I can’t believe that it’s the end of the series…but I have to say…Dani Ryan picked the PERFECT couple to end on. This is the 5th and final book in the Morelli Sisters series…you don’t have to read the previous books to understand this one but you do get a lot of background information on the characters so I definitely recommend it, plus the series is just amazing.
This book focuses on the final Morelli sister, Jade. Jade…this firecracker of a girl…she owns my heart. I saw so much of myself in her. She’s gone through A LOT since she was a little girl. Being a secret child and adopted off…she has a lot of issues with trust and opening up to people. Shes always felt like she was burden because she was made to feel that way. Always told she was too much. So she guards her heart…doesn’t trust many if any…and lives her life doing what she wants when she wants. Unapologetically herself and independent.
Red is Jades boss…he’s also her exes older brother 🤭 I love that whole scenario. Lol sorry can’t help it. I just love it. Jade is Reds assistant. Red is the typical broody , moody, alpha male billionaire with a secret heart of gold. He has had a massive crush on Jade since she started working for him, but he’s never made a move…party because she’s so closed off but also because that’s his little brothers ex.
One day Jade is dropping off Reds dry cleaning while he’s in the middle of big business meeting, trying to seal the deal. But being unmarried seems to give the business prospect a sense of mistrust and commitment issues…so Red panics and immediately says Jade is his fiancé…YIKES! Jade plays along but is stunned…obviously.
What ensues after this is nothing short of something that felt like a fever dream to me. Because Red…the man he is 😩🥹 This man has loved Jade so fiercely and protectively since day one. And somewhere along the line , a fake engagement started to feel very real. He knows her walls are high and she’s guarded. He doesn’t push. She doesn’t just TELL her that she can trust him, he SHOWS HER…and my heart melted every single time. He defended her to EVERYONE…never let anyone look down on her. He loved her just as she was and made sure that she knew the only thing he wanted to change about her was her last name. He loved everything about her that she was always told was too much.
Both of them were like broken souls drifting along in life alone until they found each other. Not only was the slow burn build up to this romance was perfect, but the spice was even better. It only seemed to make their relationship stronger and fit so perfectly in the timeline.
I feel so blessed to have been able to read this series. These character have a permanent place in my heart. I wish it wasn’t over but I’m so glad I got to come along for the ride ❤️

When I cracked open or really loaded up because my Kindle was where we were at this week while reading my ARC of Let Me Say It Again, I knew I was in store for the best combo of Romcom with Dani Ryan's newest book. It was filled with banter between the MC's only Dani Ryan can bring, the Morelli Sister's on page group texts that never disappoint, MC's with personalities that are perfectly imperfect together, along with all the feels from humor, swoonworthy, steamy, heated, and at times a bit chaotic in the best way. I loved now I felt as if was talking with the MCs and inside their heads with the way the authors wrote it. I've always enjoyed Dani Ryan's writing style because ney have a way of making the story fun, entertaining,and ab bit personal when the MCs break through the wall and chat with us in their internal dialogue.
Let's dive into our characters a bit. I love love loved that Jade got her own story in the Morelli Sisters' Series. Being the newfound half sister who popped up in the last books I was so excited to see more of her story and how she melded into the Morelli Sisters' dynamic. Jade brings it in her story and Joesn't hold back. She is completely unfiltered both in the way that she says whatever comes to mind and the fact that she is a natural beauty with her own style and doesn't let anyone change her. Now let's cue in Red, Jade's counterpart, and the man that gives her a run for money. Red brings the heat with his Doberman #raits of being an alpha boss billionaire, protective of his girl, a tad territorial, and has a bit of a swoony sweet side. This book has that when are they going to realize their fake relationship is so real feeling that drives you the best kind of insane with the back and forth plus a major tension build up. Did 1 forget to mention both MCs have dirty mouths to match their dirty thoughts, because they most definitely do. Dani Ryan can we get another secret sister because I'm not ready to let go of the Morelli Sisters f but let me just say Jade and Red finished out the series perfectly.

I haven’t met the Morelli sisters yet, but I was NOT disappointed.
Jade feisty, hilarious, blunt, bold. Living paycheck to pay check. Recently her life turned upside down (for the best) when she found out she has sisters.. trying to find her place In the world. Being told she’s less then, why wouldn’t she think that? Red is determined to show her the opposite. She’s beautiful, smart, and beneath her walls has the softest heart. She just needs the strength, safety and reassurance to show it!
The handsome Reddington ‘Red’ Lyon’s. Calculated, smart, confident. To jade he’s her.. Ex boyfriend’s older brother, her fake finance, her ex boss.. the biggest pain in her arse, * soon to be her Everytbing?! Charmer when he needs, and wants to be. Boss man exterior, but for the one he longs for he’s attentive, generous, kind, he sees her worth unlike others of his “status”.
A fairytale for the ages. (Meaning my favourite tropes). From ex’s brother, to billionaire x personal assistant, to fake marriage, forced proximity, ONE BED.. I mean it’s what dreams are made of. Throwing eachother under the bus constantly, sarcastic blows, undeniable chemistry and off the charts banter. I’m not sure what’s more consuming, their love, or their story for the reader(aka me, I’m obsessed)🥹
Honestly jade is a relatable, loveable, multi layered character and I’m in love with her as much as Red. Red is written my favourite way. Asshole to others, yearning for her and he’s not afraid to show it. Basically, I officially have two new top tier favourites.
Hard to describe but this is one of the best books at keeping you involved. It’s like you’re the MCs best friends and they’re catching you up on their life. Lots of “breaking the 4th wall” moments. Honestly I was cacking, crying, just as in love as our main characters. Definitely going to read the rest of the series asap now. Grateful to Hambright for introducing me to Dani Ryan.

Hard to describe but this is one of the best books at keeping you involved. It’s like you’re the MCs best friends and they’re catching you up on their life. Lots of “breaking the 4th wall” moments. Honestly I was cacking, crying, just as in love as our main characters. Definitely going to read the rest of the series asap now. Grateful to Hambright for introducing me to Dani Ryan.

Okay so I have received every ARC for The Morelli Sisters series and it is no joke that I will forever be obsessed with these ladies (and their men too) Jade and Red’s story was everything you could ask for. From their undeniable chemistry and all the passion, this book was just filled with all sorts of emotions and fun. What started as a fake engagement turned into something so real and natural.
Jade is the kind of character that you just immediately want the best for. She’s strong, smart, and a little guarded, but you also know she really has a big heart. Red is your perfect handsome, brooding grump. He is the CEO of his company and in need of an assistant. When Jade’s name comes across his desk, he knew he had to hire her. Oh, and she is his brother’s ex-girlfriend and he thinks his brother is a total idiot for breaking up with her. He has always been attracted to Jade and thinks if they pretend to be engaged he could show her how she deserves to be treated.
Their banter was top notch and those moments of vulnerability… you could just feel it. I absolutely loved how even with all her walls up, he made it so clear that she never had to change who she was and he adored her just the way she was. This was a bit of a slow burn, but as that spice hit, it just kept hitting!
The moments with the Morelli sisters all together just makes me so happy and I just love this family bond. Their crazy group chats, loyalty, moments, and love for each other makes this series unlike any other series. Jade says: “𝐈 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐤𝐞. 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟: 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐢𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢 𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤.” Seriously… there should really be an online course.. I’d take it in a heartbeat!

This 5th and final book in the Morelli series did not disappoint. It had not only spice, but fire. Reddington is a Doberman and brought the spice, while Jade is a Black Cat and brought the fire. Dani Ryan saved the best for last, as they say. Each one of the Morelli sisters had a story to tell and this last addition to the sisters was not any different. Let’s just say it makes you have all the feels and vibes every time Jade and Red come together.
The FMC, Jade Logan was fierce, independent, a strong woman that didn’t take any s**t from anyone. She was full of sass and if she didn’t like something that was said to her she didn’t hold back and told you just what she thought. That’s what made up her outer shell. However, inside she wasn’t as confident and or sure of herself. She was always guarded to protect herself and her heart. If she didn’t give into love, then no one could get into her heart. At least that’s what she told herself until she met Reddington Lyons, her new boss.
The MMC, Reddington Lyons isn’t your typical billionaire, he is hot, has swagger and he knows it, but what he doesn’t have is a women he has been crushing on since his younger brother dated her, and he needs her more now than ever. However, he didn’t know just how hard he had to work to get her.
The plot was well thought out. The FMC and MMC were strong and very well developed character with their personalities jumping off the pages. Jade’s story gave us another chance to enjoy all the Morelli sisters at work supporting Jade when she needed her sisters the most and working together at Bellissima, their family owned magazine. Again loved the tight knit Italian family.
If you haven’t ordered a copy of “Let Me Say It Again” by Dani Ryan and or added it to your TBR then run don’t walk. Don’t miss out on this opportunity. If I could I’d give this book more than 5 stars, but it’s definitely a 5 star rating!

The Morelli sisters have given me all the feels again in this book!
We follow Jade in this story as she is thrown in to a fake engagement with her ex boyfriends brother, Red. She's his assistant at work and they have an immediate connection that they don't want to admit. Jade is guarded because anyone she's ever loved has left her in some way. Red is so heartfelt and protective and is determined to bring Jade out of her negative ways.
I have loved all of these girls since the beginning with their closeness and fun banter between each other. So I was thrilled when Jade, who was adopted and they never knew about her, was getting a story. They brought her in to the fold so effortlessly and made her feel like part of the crew. It was so refreshing to have this story be about two people who want to hate each other but at the same time are open about being attracted to each other. There wasn't the typical back and forth hiding the attraction, they just came out and said they wanted that from each other. That doesn't mean Jade still didn't keep her true emotional feelings inside of course, but Red was a master at getting her to realize he was the real deal. I LOVEDDD the banter between these two. I was laughing out loud at their quips to each other and to themselves when giving play by plays. The sister's had me giggling as well, I adore their group texts throughout this whole series. The ending gave me chills and made me love Red even more than I thought I could.
I am sad to see the sisters go but from the ending of this one, I have a feeling we will see them again soon!!
You can get your copy July 15th! A big thank you to Dani Ryan and team for the advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.
