Summary
When you’re clueless, Mr. Romance can help.
Charlie
I’m not sure how it happened, but it turns out I’ve unknowingly been dating three people.
Friends don’t spoil other friends, apparently. My trust fund means I can afford to, though, and what’s a meal here and there? Or some clothes? Or textbooks? That doesn’t mean we’re dating, right?
Others disagree. If I want to get through the rest of college knowing who my friends are, I need help from someone who knows all about dating and can tell me what not to do.
Someone like Mr. Romance.
Liam
When people look at me, romance is the last thing they think of…but I’m still the first person they call. Need a first date planned? A big romantic moment? Gotta beg for forgiveness? I’m your man. When it comes to romance, I’ve got it handled.
Not personally, though. My romantic life is…barren. All I really want is someone to snuggle with and spoil me. What I’ve got is planning dates for people who have no clue about romancing someone.
But now I’m somehow Charlie Martin’s anti-romance consultant. Charlie, who’s completely clueless yet the most accepting and friendly person I’ve ever met. Who’s giving and generous. Who’s befriended me and wants me to be happy.
I’m supposed to help him stop his friends from falling for him. The last thing I need is to fall for him myself.

Not For Me
I was trying so hard to listen to the series in order, but by chapter 5 of this one, I had to stop. Charlie’s behavior was so foolish that it was unbelievable. I realized I was wasting my time by continuing to listen when I wasn’t enjoying the story at all. Too bad because I love Greg Boudreaux’s narration.

Mr. Romance is Right!
This is one of those books that’s plays in your head like you are watching the rom-com on a screen. I was laughing, and swooning the whole time. And even the spicy scenes were fun and I was laughing. The characters are amazing and each of their personalities makes the perfect fun combo. It’s college, strangers, to working together, then to friends, and more but with an oblivious hero you can’t help but love.

So funny, sappy and steamy
This book is so well written! Yes, it's definitely romantic and very erotic, but I haven't laughed out loud this much while reading a book in a very long time.

terrible writing, fantastic narrator
there's little to no conflict, no obstacles to overcome that are meaningful. The only reason I kept listening I'd because of the narrator.

what a letdown
this series as a whole is so good, but this one? so shallow and unbelievable. Charlie was completely unrealistic with his inability to read social cues. no one is THAT dumb. given he wasn't on any spectrum or neurodigirgent, they'd just no way.
There was no real explanation to their deciding to go to friends with benefits aside from horny- no real romance despite the title. just these 2 end up together because that's the point, but we never really get to see what they see in each other.
hate hate hate the whole Charlie wanting to change Liam and being obsessed with how he dresses. Liam deserves better. and I hate that it ends as soon as they get together and we never get to see them as a couple after the truly painful patience it takes to get there.
i adore Greg Bordeaux as a narrator usually, but he cannot pull off college age guys voices. He is way too smooth and it's clear he'd older than the 20some year old characters.

I loved it!
This book was funny and sweet, with enough human insecurities and obstacles not to be an insta-love plot. The side characters are enjoyable and this clearly ties in with the other books in the series.

Swoon
Seriously swoon 😍 Charlie is the perfect himbo and Liam is the perfect man to save him from himself. This is a feel good, fun and funny book which will leave you full of sunshine when you’re finished. Greg Boudreaux does an amazing job of bringing this book to life. Great performance!

Did not love it
The first half of this book was really silly. Charlie is a good guy but totally clueless. Liam plans romantic dates for people. Points for coming up with a different storyline in a college setting. I just didn’t feel their connection. I didn’t like that Charlie wanted to change Liam to fit his standards. And I hate that as soon as they declare love the book is over…Add the epilogue. I’m really tired of this type of ending. We never get to see the growth that happens when they are officially together.
As always the narration by Greg Boudreaux was excellent.

Not what I was expecting but should have anticipat
I must start by saying that I LOVE Louisa Masters other books.
THIS book I did not love.
I actually hadn't planned on buying the audiobook but since I want to 'read' all the books in this series and prefer to listen I caved . Because of this I feel like perhaps I shouldn't review because I already knew that I would not appreciate Greg as the narrator . Don't get me wrong, he is a great narrator and provides depth and meaning to many of the books that he performs- however he sounds like himself - an older man. He is is completely unbelievable or passable as a 20 year old. Completely Unbelievable. It is impossible to picture two very young college students when its his voice.
Additionally ... this story has a premise that is completely absurd- especially in the universe that has
been created by all of the other authors . It is impossible to believe that someone like Charlie exists in 2022 . In order to suspend disbelief and buy into Charlie's absolute lack of ability to read social cues as a 20 year old male living in California with a smart phone and more money than he knows what to do with .. you have to be able to tune out the depth of Brax & Ty's story, ignore what you know about Felix & Marshall or even Brady & Peyton and you just can't do that, you shouldn't have to because this is a series.. set in the SAME Universe
and why are Ian & Max here? I suppose its because all teh books have Easter Eggs to the authors other books . But GAWD their goofiness is just distracting. The characters are amazing in her other series but not set in this reality! . Now that I thnik about it in this context I am just realizing that Charlie is the human representation of Alistair from Hidden Species (READ THAT SERIES!!!! It's so good)
This story is akin to an Adam Sandler rendition of Anna Karenina ... I stopped listening when they decided to be "kissing friends. There was literally NO set up to their physical attraction, not a single mention of either being a horndog or anything. they were client/advisor and then "BOOM can't keep my hands off", they zipped through it and it was done - which one should be able to believe when its two 20 yr old dudes but it wasn't addressed even in THAT capacity . I felt zero connection to either MC and just skipped to the end.
