The Seasons of Callan Reed

by S.M. Soto

After the death of her husband, Daisy Casillas is lost, desperately trying to repair the wreckage that has now become her life. In need of a job and money to stay afloat, her best friend suggests a position no one in New York is willing to take. Callan Reed's executive assistant. The man is a tyrant. Incredibly Rude. Notoriously arrogant. Strikingly handsome. And as fate would have it, her former childhood best friend. Daisy promised herself she'd never speak to the man again after the destruction of their friendship years ago, but she's desperate. Desperate enough to withstand his cold glares, to follow his impossible tasks to a T, and endure his ridiculous demands. The hate and animosity they have for each other is real. The barbs they shoot at each other in the office are effective and all too spiteful. But Daisy is willing to risk it all, even if it means another shattered heart. What ensues between them is a chain of events that unravels the secrets in Daisy's already imperfect life. While struggling to rebuild everything that has crashed down around her, Daisy finds herself falling into old habits with Callan. Only this time, she hopes her heart will survive the wreckage. If there's nothing left of the organ, there's no heart left to break, right?

I'm sorry but this man's reasoning for pushing the FMC away when they were kids is LAME. Also, how did she magically forget the insults he kept throwing at her ever since she started working for him and just ends up forgiving him?! He's a definite Jackass. Ugh.

I didn't know that this book was the one that everyone criticised for plagiarism. I haven't read That Guy so I don't know how much the author copied from that book. But damn..she had a decent writing career and blew that all up for THIS BOOK? disappointing.

My goodness, why is this even here on Goodreads? I thought this was already taken down. Selena plagiarised Kim Jones and I was so sad because she's such a good author. Loved her book "Chasing the Moon" she should have written more Greek myth retellings; I think she would have been good with that. So yes, I don't understand why she had to resort into stealing other people's words. It doesn't make sense.

-gruñon/feliz

Este libro de cierta forma me toco por que son dos personajes sumamente diferentes.
Y como ver el desarrollo de ambos son indescriptibles

Como odié a Callan dios fue muy grosero con ella yo me quería meterme a la historia y decirle una cuantas cosas por que dios fue con grosero con ella .
Pero luego comprendí que era rencor remordimiento sentimientos encapsulados aún que no lo justifico pero siento que su historia estaba de tantos encuentros en el pasado que en el presente se noto la tensión entre ellos
Ella es tan fuerte por pasar por todo lo que paso con el ex marido pero ella apesar de todo ella sigue y cuan dando a s esa bebe hermosa

4/5⭐
5/5🔥

Seriously? Why is this book still here?

Plagiarized from “That Guy” by Kim Jones and author have also went ahead and copied from other well known authors like Sylvia Days. Good riddance she was called out and was kicked off the platform. Probably under a new pen name now if I’m not mistaken.
