The Wheatons are infamous among the east coast elite for their lack of impulse control, except for their daughter Clara. She’s the consummate socialite: over-achieving, well-mannered, predictable. But every Wheaton has their weakness. When Clara’s childhood crush invites her to move cross-country, the offer is too tempting to resist. Unfortunately, it’s also too good to be true.

After a bait-and-switch, Clara finds herself sharing a lease with a charming stranger. Josh might be a bit too perceptive—not to mention handsome—for comfort, but there’s a good chance he and Clara could have survived sharing a summer sublet if she hadn’t looked him up on the Internet...

Once she learns how Josh has made a name for himself, Clara realizes living with him might make her the Wheaton’s most scandalous story yet. His professional prowess inspires her to take tackling the stigma against female desire into her own hands. They may not agree on much, but Josh and Clara both believe women deserve better sex. What they decide to do about it will change both of their lives, and if they’re lucky, they’ll help everyone else get lucky too.

I want more!!

I couldn't love this book more. Switching back and forth from male to female narrator threw me off, but I see what they were going for, male vs female perspective. But the story itself was amazing! I was right there with Claira the whole time. Can't wait to listen again!!

Great story - fun, smart & plenty of heat

Truly enjoyed this one! I found the story really engaging on a lot of levels. Always enjoy Teddy Hamilton narrations & he does a great job here as usual - but this was my first Brittany Pressley narration and I was really impressed. She did great. I definitely want to listen to more books by this author and these narrators!

Fun but predictable

I love this type of book. I was told it was pretty spicy but I would disagree. It had a few, brief, “R” rated moments but nothing too racey! Thoroughly enjoyed this!

I almost returned this title.

I almost returned this title because I couldn’t get into it. But I gave it a chance and I’m sooo glad I did! It’s amazing I LOVE IT!!

Good girl meets the naughty boy she didn’t know she needed.

A perfect unexpected roommates-turned reluctant lust buddies rom-com. Characters were fun and heartwarming and had lovely personal growth by the end.

Male and female narrators did very well. Female was believable as the main character and put good inflection in her voice to catch the emotions of the character in various scenes. Male was delicious to listen to and totally fit the “naughty boy next door turns porn star” persona of the character while still capturing a boyish charm.

Would recommend this audibook to anyone looking for a feel-good romance with fun, lots of flirtation, sexy intimate moments and a happily ever after!!!
