Recommendation
If you love when the girl chases the guy, even though he wants her, you will not be able to put this book down. I loved Summer and Fitz, they were funny and imperfect characters and I could not get enough of them. Their issues were well written and explained, there aren’t huge surprises, but the flow of the story will keep you engaged until the end. This book was the perfect example of how to write a great romance and now I need to read Elle’s other college series.
Excerpts
His mouth is hot on my neck when his finger slips inside. He doesn't go too deep. Instead, he curls it and rubs a sweet spot inside me.
"I'm not having kids with you, "I wheeze at Summer. "I don't want to be part of your insane family." "Oh hush, sweetie. It's too late. I've become attached."
"I can be sweet when I want to." My knuckles graze her clit. "But right now, I'm feeling dirty." I slip a finger inside her. "Spread your legs so I can screw you against the wall."
Publisher synopsis
Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there’s no logical reason why I’m so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don’t usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I’m flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn’t help that he’s buddy-buddy with my brother.
And that his best friend has a crush on me.
And that I just moved in with them.
Oh, did I not mention we’re roommates?
I suppose it doesn’t matter. Fitzy has made it clear he’s not interested in me, even though the sparks between us are liable to burn our house down. I’m not the kind of girl who chases after a man, though, and I’m not about to start. I’ve got my hands full dealing with a new school, a sleazy professor, and an uncertain future. So if my sexy brooding roomie wises up and realizes what he’s missing?
He knows where to find me.
