The Goat in the Bedroom

The Cocky Kingmans, Book 6

By: Amy Award

Narrated by: Stella Hunter, Connor Brown

When your love life stinks and you're clearly the worst at choosing someone who won't break your heart, why not ask your best friend to find you a date? Unless of course...you're in love with her.

I've been friends with Artemis since high school, when we bonded over crushing on the same guy. Six years later, we’re roommates in our shiny new post–college lives—she's training for the Olympics while I start my pro football career. We’ve both recently had bad break–ups and she says if she’s going to get back out there, she needs dating lessons. Naturally, she asks me—her completely platonic roommate—to teach her. We practice eye contact. Hand holding. Cuddling during movies. Because that's what best friends do, right? Practice intimacy? For science?

She thinks I'm being helpful. I think I'm losing my mind. Meanwhile, I'm out here sabotaging her dates, getting jealous of my own teammates, and having heart–to–hearts with our pet goats about my feelings while she's literally in the next room. But we're definitely just friends. The evidence we might be idiots:

• The documentary crew filming my rookie season knows.
• Our pet goats know.
• Everyone knows. EVERYONE.
• The only people who don't know? Us.

I love this book!! Gryff and Artemis are the cutest couple!! I love how they both just know what each other needs and gives it with out being asked!! That's what we all deserve, unconditional love!!

the goat

omg I honestly this is super dang adorbale!!!!! and I cannot get over the names of theses a camels it is so precious. but I like the dynamic of griff and art its just sweet and dont get me started on the ending honestly dead!

I'M SORRY KINGMANS! GRIFF IS SUPERIOR

This is literally the GOAT of all cocky Kingman stories. The LGBTQ+ rep, the spice, the slow burn, the friends to lovers and all the Kingman Queens and kids (ha) make this one exceptional Kingman Story. Definitely my favorite. Before this it was Hayes & Willa. But Griff and Arty are sensational all the way around. Great job again, Amy! Also happy for some Fox Daws cross-over. So excite!

Wow I LOVE it

I've been reading these like crazy. They are all super cute and make me feel good with all the body positivity. This one has to be my FAVORITE! i love this couple and them being best friends turning into love and it was such a good story. Thank you!

The love that she has in all her books and the hopefulness she gives a person that love does exist.

I loved all the characters from all of Amy's books and I hope she is writing about Isaac and Jewels love life too. I have started her books over three times until The Goat in the Bedroom came out. I just finished it and I cried with this one!
