She’s trying to be good. He loves it when she’s bad.
Andrew West is done being the nice guy. After a marriage proposal gone wrong, he’s started over in a new city and he’s never risking his heart again.
Becca Collins is done being the bad girl. After quitting the band she played bass for, she’s going to prove to her family that she’s really changed.
When Becca’s dumped by her boyfriend and fired from her job on Christmas Eve, all seems lost, until she runs into a former one night stand–Andrew. To impress her parents, Becca convinces him to pretend to be her perfect boyfriend for their holiday dinner.
After Andrew shows Becca he’s all bad boy in the bedroom, neither wants to pretend anymore. But when Becca’s invited to rejoin her band for a show and Andrew’s forced to face his ex, they both wonder if they’re ready to take a leap again–or if they’re doomed to fail in life and love a second time.

Elizabeth Briggs’ Chasing the Dream series is always full of surprises! She gives readers what they want and I love that. This book is one for the fans of the series, those who long for the secondary characters to get their happily ever after. In this story, we see Andrew and Becca’s story. This one starts in More than Comics where we get a glimpse of something happening between these two but not much concrete. When I started reading this one, I did not realize that this was about those same two people and once it clicked I was so excited. Briggs takes a moment from one story and expands it into so much more.
Becca is the girl you might have hated before. She was mean and a hot mess. When we start to understand who she is and what she is like in this book, you start to realize her reactions to every situation are for a reason and it all makes sense. She was heartbroken and lost. She left behind her life’s dream to build a new one but never quite gave up on what she wanted. I admired Becca’s attempt to find herself. She left a destructive lifestyle and fought to put all the pieces back together. When she learns to balance her hearts desire with responsibility and smarts, she can claim the world.
When Becca and Andrew run into each other again by chance, I got so excited knowing that this was the second chance they both needed, wanted, and deserved. I could not wait to learn more about Andrew as his own person and to see where he had been. These two click. They sharpen each other, encouraging one another to fight for what they want. I loved seeing them fall hard and fast. It was realistic with the ups and downs in their relationship. There were past heartaches to work through and I love how Briggs’ addresses those issues.
More Than Once is a fantastic addition to this series. It gives fans of this series a HEA that most of us did not know that we wanted. This book is filled with gut wrenching passion and a lust filled haze. It is definitely the hottest book in the series (well at least that I have read so far). There is emotion, depth, hope, and fight. I loved watching Becca and Andrew’s story unfold and cheering them onto their dreams!
