It's All About Bex Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 542 ratings

Old grudges are the hardest to overcome, and the heaviest burden on new love.


Ellis Patterson can’t lie, the unexpected visit of her best friend’s auntie could be the most exciting thing that’s happened since Ellis drifted to this small town several months ago. She pictures Bex Naylor as a typical favourite aunt: eccentric, childless, probably flitting about in flowered dresses, burning sage.

But Bex defies every stereotype. Black leather on her long, slim body, motorcycle to match, Bex has been following the wind for a year. And when those bright green eyes lock with Ellis’, she feels like she’s died and gone to heaven.

Bex’s attraction to Ellis is instant and electrifying. Despite the younger woman’s butch appearance, there is a softness to her that Bex finds appealing. When she discovers how easy it is to make Ellis blush, Bex suspects making those dimpled cheeks bloom pink could become her favourite hobby while she’s back in town. But being home again is…complicated. The last thing she wants is to let old grudges and tangled family emotions touch Ellis’ sweetness.

Though Bex can forgive, certain people will never forget. And one of them would like to see her gone—permanently.

    This is the second book that I have read by Melissa and I am hooked. Absolutely superb writing, and engaging storylines. The spice is sooo hot and K. A. Walsh as the narrator is icing on the cake. I am thoroughly hooked and look forward to reading more. I love the way she develops the characters and brings them to life. Bex had me salivating when I imagined her in that leather on her bike - Oooh Weee!!! Great read and I’m definitely an avid fan now

    It's All About Bex by Melissa Tereze is another fantastic sapphic romance that delivers all the heat, drama, and emotional depth you could want. Masterfully narrated by KA Walsh, this audiobook is a captivating listen that kept me hooked from start to finish.

    The story centers on Ellis Patterson, a sweet, small-town butch, and Bex Naylor, her best friend’s stylish, leather-clad aunt who’s been drifting with the wind for the past year. The attraction between them is instant and sizzling, and their chemistry is off the charts. Tereze’s talent for writing steamy, magnetic romance shines here, and Walsh’s narration only heightens the electricity between the characters.

    Ellis is an absolute delight. I fell completely in love with her soft, blush-worthy charm and her tender heart. She’s the kind of character who instantly wins you over, and I couldn’t get enough of her. Bex, on the other hand, is all swagger and edge, but her struggles with her complicated family history add layers to her character. Watching her navigate boundaries, forgiveness, and healing made her journey as compelling as her romance with Ellis.

    The family drama surrounding Bex is intense, and I’ll admit I got so frustrated with the way her relatives rained down chaos on her. But it also made the story richer, showing how much work Bex has done to heal and stand strong against their negativity. The themes of forgiveness and boundaries are beautifully woven into the story, giving it emotional weight beyond the romance.

    Have I mentioned how much I love books without a third-act breakup?! It’s so refreshing to read a romance where the drama doesn’t hinge on tearing the main couple apart. Instead, the focus remains on their growing connection and how they support each other through the external challenges they face.

    KA Walsh’s narration is flawless, capturing the passion, humor, and tenderness of the story with perfection. She brings the characters to life in a way that feels immersive and authentic, enhancing every moment of the book.

    If you love steamy sapphic age-gap romances filled with drama, healing, and unforgettable characters, It's All About Bex is a must-listen. Melissa Tereze and KA Walsh make an unbeatable team, and I can’t wait to see what they bring us next!

    The queen of age-gap romance, Melissa Tereze, has another phenomenal book to sink your teeth into.
    I love this new cast of characters she created. The MCs are well thought out, genuine, artfully created, and perfect for each other. I admire how seamlessly Tereze is able to render an age-gap relationship where it is never the focal point during the relationship.
    The secondary characters are well developed and cause the majority of the angst. I appreciate that the angst comes from other than the MCs themselves, It allows us to see more facets of the MCs relationship. I also respected how the situations were dealt with.
    Each new book I read of Tereze makes me fall in love with every new release and patiently waiting for what comes next.

    Melissa Terese really has produced a keenly compelling and different story encompassing family relations that are strained and adding a layer of tension and depth in a disturbing character, Leah. The quality of writing here is refined, being able to bring the dynamics of this story through right to the end. I am impressed and that rarely happens.

    This book is very well written. It's about family and love and how family and friends can hurt each other through words. That drama in life is not good and if you don't ask the person that's causing it to work it out then let them go. Life is to short to worry about what people say. Bex just wanted a simple life but things didn't work that way. Ellis is a person that get to know the facts before she dislike some not just hear say. Ellis really likes Bex and wanted to be with her she understands what was happening but made right decision to stay and have a life with Bex. Things would work out the right way as they should. A wonderful book of not giving up and have love in your heart of forgiveness

    Melissa Tereze has authored an engaging, sensual romance featuring two English women: Bex, who’s been traveling through Europe for the past year, and Ellis, the best friend of Bex’s niece, Carli.

    At 46, Bex has already made her fortune. When she sells the skincare company she started, Bex takes early retirement. But rather than settle into her luxury home to enjoy a relaxed, upscale lifestyle, Bex surprises her niece, sister Shelley, and brother-in-law Paul by suddenly leaving their small hometown to tour the Continent.

    Ellis, who’s at the outset of her life as an independent woman, lives simply, working with Carli as a parts driver at Paul’s auto shop. She has a warm relationship with her affluent parents, especially with her mom, and an easy-going attitude.

    The two women are attracted to each other immediately upon Bex’s arrival but face challenges from Carli, resentment from Shelley, and a cold shoulder around town.

    Tereze compellingly plots a tumultuous path for Bex as she copes with the pain and confusion caused by the frosty reception, and Ellis who experiences the fallout and angst as she helps her potential partner navigate the situation.

    This story was amazing, and Bex is a way better person than me. That sister and niece situation . . .they definitely would have had to sit in it for far longer than she made them. For sure wouldn't have been allowed around while I was healing. I'm rarely ever triggered when reading, but I think that did it.😤 All in all, an emotional journey with two great MC's surrounded by a host of well fleshed out side characters. Couldn't put it down, but I think I'll go read something lite for awhile. 💜

    Wow, one thing you can always expect from MT is an amazing story with brilliant characters. This has followed that trend.
    Ellis and Bex are such great characters. I couldn’t fault them if I tried. I thoroughly enjoyed reading every single chapter. The care and respect each had for the other was heartwarming.
    I wasn’t keen on 2 of the side characters from the start, and that opinion hasn’t changed after reading it. I’m not going to explain why as it will spoil things but needless to say I would have walked away.
    As with all Tereze’s books I’ve been left wanting more! Hopefully this gets a second instalment as I’d love to see what the future brings.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 24, 2024

    "Carli was here, so she must want answers. Answers Bex should have given her a long time ago to save all of this from blowing up the way it had."

    This line sums up my main issue with this book that stops it being a 5* - the entire drama is drawn out because the MC Bex keeps deciding it's not for her to defend herself, or she can't be bothered to explain herself. Because of this, the melodrama and martyrdom of the characters grind out until nearly 80% through.

    That said, Bex is a likeable MC - Ellis I'm a bit more on the fence about as her blind loyalty and trust in Bex at the start, to the extent she turns her back on her 'best friend', is hard to buy into.

    It's a decent story, but I'm finding the authors books increasingly over the top. I always want to read them when they come out, but then always find myself rolling my eyes, wanting the characters to behave and react just a little bit more realistically and not so am-dram. That said, I'll still probably read the next one when it comes out.
