Guy Hater

Fisher Brothers #2

by J. Sterling

I might be the quiet one, but I hear everything. The women who come into my bar aren't at all silent about their wants or desires. And I'm one of them. They call me "sexy, alluring and mysterious." They want to be "spanked by Frank." Hell, there's even a hashtag. But none of that matters until she walks through my doors.

My body reacts.
My whole world shifts.

I want her, but I can't have her. And if she finds out the truth about me, I'll lose my shot forever. That's not a chance I'm willing to take. I just hope I'm strong enough to do what needs to be done before it's too late.

✱3.5 STARS!✱

☾The Fisher Brothers O M G. Frank, Ryan and Nick need to open up a bar in Boston...just sayin'. I can always count on Sterling's writing to bring me a guaranteed great book! The only reason I'm giving this book a lower rating is because there wasn't any of Claudia and Frank actually as a couple until the last 3 chapters...yeah, just warning you all.

☾Frank is the quiet type, he was always kind of the odd one out I'd say. Ryan and Nick being the outgoing ones, while Frank handled the bar details. I honestly thought he'd end up with Shelby in the end for a while and I was lowkey really upset about it...

☾Claudia annoyed me so much!! She listened to everything Brittany told her to do and she winded up looking desperate IMO...that's all I'll say about her because if I said more I'd wind up ranting!!

☾While I didn't really enjoy the characters too much individually, I loved them together as a couple! But again, we don't see them together until the last 3 chapters so..

This author has a thing for cheating in her books.
It seems there’s emotion cheating. He was in a 10 years relationship and still led the female mc even if they didn’t do anything physical. But he didn’t tell her about his “girlfriend”. Weak, lying, cheater is not an character I want to read about. And it drags for 85% until the “real” mcs get together. BIG FAT NO.

HUH - yea, not what you would expect a review to start out with, but that's exactly what I am thinking on this one. HUH. I am torn on this one and how to rate the book. And no, it has nothing to do with the cheating - and no, that is not a spoiler.

I went middle of the road on this book because I have two different views on this book - one as just a reader who has no knowledge of Jenn and her life. And the other view of knowing about Jenn and her life experiences because a lot her stories are peppered with those moments. If I had no clue about Jenn, this book would be just ok for me - one that I enjoyed and would recommend but not remember months down the line (not a bad thing). But knowing her, I can feel more emotion in this book and feel more in the writing.

Let me talk about the book. I did not read the first book in this series - and you don't need to. I wasn't lost at all as this book focuses on Frank, the eldest Fisher brother. He's stuck in a rut, and lives life as is because that's what he's known to do. Then Claudia enters his life and shines a new light on things. She brings hope back into his life.

Claudia has a bad taste in her mouth when it comes to men (daddy issues). So when things between her and Frank are sparked to life, she's seeing things differently.

I enjoyed reading their story. Yes, there is cheating. Do I condone it, no. But it's a book and these types of things don't bother me in books; it makes for a great plot line and helps the H prove himself worthy later on in the story. Like I said before, knowing Jenn and how much her life plays into these books, it helps give the books a more realistic feel to them. But not knowing that, I don't get as much emotion from it but the book is still good and well written and one that many will enjoy.

If you love romance with an HEA (and can deal with cheating), I think you'll enjoy this one.

Warning: spoilers

I just couldn't warm to how these two came together. He was cheating, even if they technically didn't 'do' anything while he was with Shelby. There is such a thing as emotional cheating and it's as bad as physically cheating in my book. It would have been ok if he'd split with Shelby right after he met Claudia, but he didn't and he knew it was wrong. Because it was. Sadly I can't reconcile those actions (and inactions) with the strong and good character he was being portrayed as. I 'get' the conflict and the feeling of obligation, but he made all the wrong choices and it felt wrong and icky.

Also, I really didn't like the way it was written that he would pursue her after he'd finally broken up with his girlfriend, if Claudia said no. If a woman says no, it means no. Him saying he would never give up and pursue her until she finally gave in and agreed to go out with him, was all kinds of wrong. I know she didn't say no, but the fact he told her that if she did he wouldn't take no for an answer is awful and sends all the wrong kinds of messages. Women don't actually want that. Let's not send the message that when a woman says no she might actually mean yes and just want a forceful, alpha man to make her realise that she actually means yes. Rape culture much?!

This story had the potential to be much better than I felt it ended up being.

[Kim · Rating 2 out of 5]

Doormat!

Cloud-ee-ah is a hypocrite. She claims to hate cheaters, but she is obsessed with an unavailable man. It really was unsettling how obsessed she was over someone she barely knew.
Frank was another weak Fisher. He kept himself in a bad situation because he was too afraid to change it. He never should have pursued Claudia knowing he was too weak to leave Shelby. And starting a relationship before the sheets were cold from the last one is a really terrible idea.
One last thing, where does the title 'Guy Hater' come from? Claudia wasn't really a guy hater.

Guy Hater by J. Sterling is the second installment of the Fisher Brother Series. I have not read the first book but Guy Hater can be totally read as a standalone.

So what happens when you are in a relationship that has run it’s course and are only staying out of obligation? Well for Frank Fisher that is pretty much his life and story that is until a sexy Colombian named Claudia walks into his life. So here’s the thing. Frank is in a relationship. Claudia is very single. Frank wants Claudia. Claudia wants Frank. So yes, you can see the dilemma. So what happens when Frank must make a choice?

I enjoyed Guy Hater but at the same time didn’t like how long it took for this couple to finally get together. Frank is one of the those heroes that you didn’t fall in love right away and that’s in largely due to the fact that he couldn’t man up and end his relationship right away but instead dragged it on. As for Claudia, she is one of those heroines that you want to slap upside in the head for wanting a man who isn’t available but at the same time, J. Sterling wrote flawed realistic characters who were embarking on a journey of finding themselves and deciding what they want in life so I have to applaud that aspect of the story line. Overall, this book was an emotional journey of making a decision and happiness.

[Virginia · Rating 4 out of 5]

Jenn has written a great story with Guy Hater. Here we have the story of Frank and Claudia. Frank is hot and sexy and swoon worthy. Claudia is mouthy and feisty and lovable. When Claudia walks into Frank’s bar both of their lives are turned upside down by the chemistry they have. But of course, there are some things in their way.

Jenn has written such lovable characters and you just root for them to make it. Frank is definitely book boyfriend material. The writing is easy to read and fun and keeps you hooked. There is some angst and drama but it’s not over the top. Overall, a great read.

Before I say a word, can I just say how much I love this cover?

Soul Mates are what’s on the drink menu in J. Sterling’s newest, Guy Hater. Insta-love isn’t always my favorite, but I do believe in the power of soul mates and it’s obvious that Frank and Claudia are meant to be together. Getting there, though isn’t going to be easy.

For a very long time, Guy Hater is two separate stories. With Frank in a ten-year old, dead-end relationship he’s just not available when he and Claudia lock eyes for the first time. He’s let obligation and a promise to keep him from being truly happy, something he realizes when he meets Claudia. Claudia, on the other hand is very available. Not only that, she’s happy in her job and in her life. But, she does have some issues that need to be dealt with and it’s their meeting that sets both of these characters on a life changing path.

It was a little frustrating that Claudia and Frank spend so much time apart in Guy Hater. While their meeting is a catalyst for both of them to face things they needed to fix, these were things that they had to do on their own, especially in Frank’s case.

Frank is a great guy that was sort of unattractive for a good part of the book because he wouldn’t take control of his life. I love it when a character grows within a book, recognizing something within them that needs to change. Unfortunately, Frank knew what he needed to do, he just wouldn’t step up, making his character static for a little too long. There’s a lot of introspection on his part that I felt would’ve been better served in developing his relationship with Claudia, which heavily relied on the "we're soul mates" concept. That said, I could empathize with what he was going through and his situation felt true (though maybe not for a guy who’s headlining a romance novel). When Frank finally grabs the reigns of his life, he really stood out.

Claudia is very engaging. A Colombian immigrant, she’s feisty and funny and falls for Frank almost right away. But, she’s never really gotten over her father cheating on her mother and then leaving them both, something that doesn’t come to the surface until she learns that the guy she’s falling for has a girlfriend. I loved how she handles herself after the revelation that Frank isn’t who she thought he was. She’s honest with herself every step of the way and I loved how real it felt.

When these two finally get together (and it’s late in the book, they don’t kiss until the 85% mark) they’re absolutely adorable and their connection shines through. The supporting cast is engaging as well. Guy Hater is book two in Sterling’s Fisher Brothers series, so many of the characters will be familiar to readers (though, it's totally a standalone). Frank’s brothers are often times hilarious and always a great support system for him. My favorite secondary character is Claudia’s roommate, Brittney, who is crazy and smart and a great friend to Claudia.

3 Stars for Guy Hater. Heat level: 3

2.5 stars

*review may contain spoilers*

I absolutely adore this author and just like in previous books - her writing style has this flawless flow that grabs your attention and doesn't let go.

BUT I have to be honest and say - this storyline was not for me - at all. I had zero sympathy for anyone except Claudia. I hated Frank, he was a coward and his reason made him look like he was trying to be some type of martyr who was just fine being miserable for the rest of his life if it meant keeping a promise he technically broke anyway (being miserable isn't going to make her happy and keeping someone happy is part of taking care of them). The constant "it has nothing to do with Claudia" when Frank finally grew a pair - was overkill because even though he already wanted to make that decision, he didn't until Claudia came into the picture.... So yea, it was about Claudia.
Claudia's best friend sucks! I was totally digging Claudia standing her ground because no woman deserves to be treated the way Frank treated
(and Shelby for that matter).... But here comes Brittney trying to encourage Claudia to go for a guy who is in a relationship because she knows he has feelings for her bestie .
How did NO ONE know that Frank was that miserable? I mean come on....his brothers see him just about daily, and they had no clue? What about Shelby? She was either really selfish or just a total idiot - why would you want to be with someone you KNOW doesn't want to be with you? And I don't buy the whole promises thing either. Life is too short to be that unhappy and pretending to be happy is just too freaking exhausting.

Like I said, the writing itself is fantastic - I'd give a sold 3.5 stars for the writing alone! But that storyline - it just wasn't for me. I really, really hope Ryan's book is more my cup of tea!

First book I haven’t liked....

Honestly I couldn’t finish it. I didn’t like the concept and the storyline. I couldn’t empathize with the characters which I can’t really elaborate on without giving things that happened away. It probably is a good book and I usually love the author but this story just isn’t my cup of tea....

[Theresa Alberts · Rating 3 out of 5]

Guy Hated is the second book in the series but can absolutely be read as a standalone. I loved the story of Claudia & Frank. A chance meeting brings these two into each other's world but whether or not the stay is a whole other story. Frank harbors guilt from a promise made long ago and a love that has fizzled and faded. Claudia doesn't want to be the man in a relationship. She wants a man who takes the lead, who is passionate about her and their relationship.

Claudia and Franks relationship starts off rocky and that is due to assumptions and with-holding the truth. But it is how both Frank and Claudia deal with the bumps in their budding relationship that shows their strength of character and their love of each other.

The journey each of these characters takes makes this story even more appealing and heartwarming.

I loved Guy Hater by J. Sterling. This story had all the feels and characters you will love! I loved the interactions between the brothers and the Claudia and her best friend.

We get both POVs, which is helpful, because of Frank's situation, be we can easily see how he ended up where he is today. Frank was such a good guy, with a good heart, just stuck in a bad situation.

I loved Claudia! I loved her personality and her easy-going nature.

I devoured this story! It was sweet and angsty, but so worth reading!

Happy reading.

Guy Hater by J Sterling is the second book in the Fisher Brothers Series. Guy Hater can easily be read as a standalone.
The brothers Frank, Ryan and Nick are owners of a successful bar. After Nick and Jess found their HEA; now it´s Frank´s turn.
Frank is the oldest of three and in a relationship with Shelby, his girlfriend. He´s dead inside, doesn´t love her anymore, but can´t end the relationship with her, because- sorry not sorry- no spoilers here.
And then he meets HER, Claudia - a gorgeous woman and he´s smitten. They´re flirting and he wants more - but he´s in a relationship. But he can´t get her out of his head. Claudia is oblivious, of course.

Let me tell you, this book had me in twists. I´m really, really torn. I despise cheating; and lets be honest what Frank does IS cheating. He wants to be with another woman, but has a girlfriend and is in a relationship. Cheating starts with intention and not with action. No, nope I don´t like cowardly cheater- at all.
Reading the book I was waiting the whole time for the moment when everything blows up in Frank´s face- and oh boy is does blow up ! Claudia is devastated and I´m totally with her.

But, the book is extremely well written, I loved the writing and the words, and I was very well entertained. I was so engrossed, I read it in one sitting. I had to know what happens to the characters, I couldn´t put it down.
And that´s why I give 5 stars. Thank you J Sterling.

** Spoiler free review**
Frank Fisher is amazing...I know that this review may not do him justice, but I will try. I believe that Frank is truly the best Fisher brother out of the 3.
Frank is a bit of a mystery. He's a very hard man to read. He's Tall, dark and very handsome. He also is extremely unhappy. He's been in a relationship with Shelby since his college days. In his words she's been with through all his dark crap, BUT is that reason enough to stay together. His brother's still don't understand why Frank stays with Shelby, his only answer is he feels obligated.
One night Franks world is spun out of control when the very beautiful Claudia walks through the doors of his bar. She's there with her best friend Brittney, who happens to have a HUGE crush on Ryan.,,,That's a whole other story.When Claudia and Franks eyes connect there is a HUGE PULL...What happens?...I cant say. BUT I will say it's fireworks.....In my option Frank Fisher has replaced Jack Carter as my favorite charterer by J Sterling

Let me start out by saying this bar is awesome. The names of the drinks are epic. I would love to go to Sam's in real life. I would try them all. (No I'm not an alcoholic, yet. But it just sounds like so much fun!)

I didn't read No Bad Days. I didn't even realize this was part of a series. I saw the title and cracked up. That was it. I needed the book. Then I read the blurb and it was destiny. I had to have it. So here I am fangirling over the angst riddled situation I found myself in...

Love sucks. Love is kind.
Love is a vile b!tch who stomps on those around her. Love is patient.

There are two sides to every coin and in this case even knowing that hurts. Life isn't always black and white, honestly, it almost never is. And this story brings that point home more than others...

Right
Wrong
Good
Bad

It's all perception, feelings, or beliefs. Guy Hater is going to test all of yours. You will have strong feelings too. I just hope that whichever way you lean- you listen to the other side. (Psst, Ryan! Since I'm helping you by helping Frank, my number is....)

Enjoy the atmosphere, the drinks, and the incredible family at Sam's. You won't regret it! Oh and don't forget to share your #FishWish

**Added to Favorites Shelf (Was there ever doubt it wouldn't be?)

So if you follow me on Goodreads you know for a fact that I love anything and everything that J. Sterling writes.

Guy Hater was certainly no exception. I absolutely loved Guy Hater. Frank was just the type of unhappy guy you can't help but love and feel sorry for being stuck in an unhappy relationship. Claudia is just the perfect little ball of spitfire he needs to get his life back on track. 

Jenn always has a way to make you fall in love with the characters instantly and feel the pain as they go through it. I found myself crying and wanting everything to come up with a happily ever after. Naturally this can only happen with a few bumps in the road along the way. 

I don't want to spoil too much, but trust me Guy Hater will pull you in and have you wanting to grab every copy of Jenn's books. 

Guy Hater is a MUST READ for all romance readers, Come join me and many others in making a #Fishwish for one of the Fisher Brothers.

I haven't read the first book in this series but this one was just fine for me even though I haven't. I loved curling up to this on a rainy day this past weekend. It was fun and sweet and just an easy afternoon read. 

Frank and Claudia are instant chemistry and the electricity just leaped off the pages with them. Frank is a stand up guy always doing the right thing, Claudia is a fun and sassy chick that you instantly love. I don't feel this was a triangle book but I can see how some may think that. 

The whole book had a "do what makes you happy" theme and finding your place. I enjoyed it so much and I can't wait to squeeze book one into my reading list to catch up on these brothers. Great book Jen!!

4 Fish wish stars...

I thoroughly enjoyed Guy Hater. I think I liked it a little better than the previous book, just because it felt less YA and a little more adult romance. I usually don't like love triangles, because they make me uncomfortable specially when it's all about the emotional entanglement, more than a physical one, but I have to say the author managed to pulled this one off. The story was naturally angsty, but it wasn't overly dramatic.
The one thing I always love in a book is a good female lead. A Strong character. Claudia was all that and more. She has confidence without arrogance, she's centered, put together know what she wants, she's straightforward without actually being forward, has dignity, she doesn't compromise on her principles, and has a spine! Something that a lot of heroines lack. I really liked her character.
As for Frank, I liked him, but I didn't like his actions at some point. I understand he was honestly a good guy trying to do what he thought was right, but that doesn't mean that he was right. I wanted to slap some sense into him! I don't want to give any spoilers away, so I'll just say that even though I didn't like what he was doing I never disliked him.
*********MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD: ***********
Another thing I liked in the book was that for a change, the story doesn't revolve around a physical relationship between the MCs. It's refreshing to find a book that manages to still be sexy without actual sex in it. I mean the MCs don't even kiss until the 85% Mark, and don't "sleep" together until past the 90% mark. I know a lot of people don't like that, but I actually find it refreshing. A story that doesn't rely on sex scenes to keep it interesting! I loved that. I also loved how non cliched the characters are. Frank is not a player, manho, arrogant alpha male; and Claudia is not a naive virgin, or a spineless doormat that turns into a quivering mess every time the H looks her way.
Thank You J. Sterling for a good read with strong characters! Can't wait for Ryan's book!

Guy Hater reminded me why I love J Sterling so much!! I’ve read some of her other books but it’s been awhile so when I saw this release I said to myself, YOU NEED TO READ!! So glad I did! Ms Sterling gives us a great romance story that will make you laugh but make you swoon. Her writing is effortless and I just feel love with Frank and Claudia’s story! This can be read as a standalone and is a complete story told in alternating points of view.

Claudia’s best friend conveniences her to check out the hottest new bar in town. She insists the bartender eye candy is worth it alone! She is single and all so why not! While her best friend has her eye on the outspoken flirt, another is the one that catches Claudia’s eye. He’s reserved and quiet but there is something about him that she’s drawn to. They have a couple drinks together but she can’t seem to get him out of her head.

Frank is co-owner of that hottest bar in town. Him and his two other brothers are owners and bartenders and since they’ve opened they have been very successful. Since he has the business degree, his focus is mainly on the books but he does help out with the bar when needed. Normally the patrons don’t catch his eye. They are just looking for a good time and to him, this is business. But one night a beautiful Columbian named Claudia captures his attention. The pull they have to each other is something he’s never experienced. He knows he should pursue her but he can’t help himself. The attraction is feels is something that he couldn’t stay away from even if he tried.

Claudia and Frank’s attraction is noticeable to anyone around them but Frank is hesitant on moving forward. He has unfinished business he needs to tend to. He knows he must come truthful to Claudia but the fear of losing her keeps him from being 100% truthful with her. What happens when his secret comes out? You know those never stay hidden! How will Frank convenience Claudia they are worth it all. You will need to read Guy Hater to find out!!

"Maybe love wasn't always black and white, no matter how hard we tried to force it to be. Maybe connections weren't always easy and uncomplicated. Maybe love was filled with challenges sometimes, only to see how hard you'd fight to cover come them."

4.5 Guy Hater Stars!

Frank is stuck in a loveless relationship with his longtime girlfriend, Shelby. How do you break up with someone who has been there for you during your lowest? Dealing with guilt, he chose to do what is right, even though if it costs him his happiness.

But he did not realize how stuck his heart was until the night Claudia waltzed into his bar. Her captivating green eyes jump-started his heart and made him want things he shouldn't be thinking about. The lines between right and wrong are blurred, does Frank has the courage to reach out for his future? Or choose to do what is expected of him?

The Fisher brothers are incredibly sexy that they even have a hashtag dedicated just for them! I haven't read the first book of the series but J. Sterling's writing is an addictive drug that tempts you with the promise of a great read. Although this is Frank's story, I also felt an immediate attraction towards Nick (which I will stalk his book later) and Ryan (he's so annoyingly funny!).

It was a roller coaster of emotions as I could only imagine how torn up Frank was. Part of me felt emphatic towards Shelby and the other part was rooting for his HEA with Claudia, it was the way the author narrated the story that made it all so...real. I loved it!

Guy Hater is Book Two in The Fisher Brothers Series by Jenn Sterling and what we get is the Fantastic story of the older Brother Frank Fisher.
Frank Fisher is part owner of Sam's a bar he owns with his brothers, he's a great brother and friend but he also is a man in a relationship that he doesn't seem to be happy with any longer.
Claudia is a young woman who works for a bank and loves her job. She has her best friend as her roommate and co worker but also is as single as they come.
Britney, Claudia's Best friend convinces her to going out so she can get her Flirt on with one Fisher Brother but when she finds herself at Sam's what she never expects is to meet Frank Fisher and the instant chemistry is so apparent you can feel the sparks come flying off the pages and you can't wait to see where it all goes.
There are going to many moments throughout the story that you will find yourself cheering this couple on but they will also have to overcome some hurdles and heartache to get there. There story will show you that when you want someone to be a part of your future you might have to put away the past before you can get there. Their story will give you all the feels throughout, you will have happy, sad, anger, angst, lust and maybe even love but what you will have is a book that you won't want to miss because it's that incredible from the very first page up until you see the words "The End".

J. Sterling is an author that I have had recommended to me by a number of readers and Guy hater was the first book I have read of this author. After reading this story I now understand why people have been recommending J. Sterlings books to me because this author knows how to write a book that keeps the readers interest from start to finish.

Claudia was one of my favourite female characters to read about because she had so much sass and she knows what she wants in life. I enjoy the way that she knows the type of love that she wants and isn’t willing to settle for anything less.

Frank, I absolutely loved, he wasn’t just gorgeous but he was caring as well. He made a few bad decisions in order to protect people that he cared about because of the obligations he felt he owed. But I think he tried to do the right thing throughout the book. I loved the relationship that he has with both his brothers and the banter they got into had me laughing so much.

Guy hater is about the oldest Fisher brother and the relationship between him and Claudia.

I absolutely loved Guy hater form start to finish. I found that all the characters were enjoyable to read about and some of them had me laughing so much. This is definitely a book that I would recommend everyone to read and I can’t wait to read what happens next in the series.

I love this series!!! The Fisher boys never disappoint!!! Thank you J Sterling for giving us Franks story! The oldest of the Fisher boys who is in a relationship but not in love with his girlfriend but doesn’t want to hurt her. He has a big heart but realizes when he meets Claudia a sexy hot spark he’s never felt before and he doesn’t know what to do??!? I’m not a fan for cheaters but still loved Frank and was rooting for him to find love! Does he stick with safe and stay with his girl friend? Or does he open up to the connection he finds with Claudia but when she finds out what he’s been hiding can she be open to more with him too????

This story has so much going on and full of the sexy flirty Fisher boys!!! I loved it and can’t wait for more!

Claudia had so much sass and I loved it, "she scoffed at me, offended. “Do I eat pizza? Oh, because I’m Colombian, I don’t eat Italian food? Is that what you think?” Frank could be so bossy, “how about where I work instead? Tonight. Come by. It doesn’t matter what time.” When I didn’t respond right away, he firmed his voice. “Tonight, Claudia. Come.” It wasn’t a request." Claudia is a woman full of logic, “because I want to try whatever you get. Don’t worry, I’ll share mine with you. But that’s why we need different things, so we can eat more,” she said with an excited smile, and I agreed." I liked this book, I fell in love with Frank.

I struggled with this one. And I'm on the fence still after finishing. While I individually liked the characters and the way J Sterling delivered them. I'm afraid the story line didn't do it for me...

J Sterling's writing is top notch, it flows and I felt connected to her style and what she was trying to do. However, as I said, the story line was a huge issue for me. I really liked Frank but I really didn't like him too. Claudia was a good female character but I didn't love her.

Overall, this book was a quick read that while likable, wasn't loveable.

I felt bad for Shelby having to move out of a high-rise apt into another place with a roommate. You would have thought after all those years he would have helped her out for a while and made sure she had a safe place. He just cut and run.

Honestly, I didn't really care for any of the Fisher boys.

I really really enjoyed this, I haven't read book 1 but i will be now, The great thing is i didn't need to read that to understand what was happening in this, I felt for Frank and what he was going through, It does have a HEA and is a must read from Jenn.
