Publisher's summary

A dating experiment ignites a secret attraction in this steamy new rom-com from number one New York Times best-selling author Lauren Blakely!

Eight years ago I fell into a secret summer fling with my best friend’s little sister before our lives went in different directions. Now, I’m the grumpy to Juliet’s sunshine on a popular dating podcast we host, and when a wealthy fan gives us a charming coastal cottage as the biggest thank you ever, we head to the town where I grew up to give it a makeover.

And find the house has only one bed.

Located under a mirrored ceiling.

To make matters even harder, the bright, big-hearted woman I’ve been pining for tells me she wants to try to find the one and would I please be her dating coach for the week?

Like hell I’ll let her date other men. I’ll coach her on three dates with me.

But the second I take her out, I don’t feel like her teacher. I feel like she’s mine, especially when the first night ends with us tangled up together in that bed.

Each night we grow closer, but this dating experiment forces me to face my greatest fear–whether a man like me is worthy of her love.

Even though I’m already head over heels for her.

Perfection

Light hearted romance. Loved it♥️ Jacob Morgan the best male narrator who can perform in comedic sense, or serious heartfelt more dramatic sense. It is all in his delivery. And Andi Arndt was also great as a performer. I enjoyed the story very much.

Blakely+Jacob+Andi= 😊

It was delightful. It was very spicy. It had minimal angst. It was what I needed. I’ve read some comments about the basic plot line, but sometimes hot and basic is best.

Enjoyable narration, easy listening

Jacob Morgan. What can I say. That voice, tembre and portrayal of Monroe is stellar, and Andi Arndt thoroughly pleasing as Juliet.

Monroe & Juliet

Monroe is a broody sweety, Juliet is witty and sassy - what a combo! Their story s not without its ups and downs but they find their happiness in the end. Jacob Morgan and Andi Ardnt were brilliant as this swoony pair.
