Summary
A full-length standalone romantic comedy from USA TODAY best-selling author R.S. Grey.
"Oh my god. Who is that?"
I get asked this question a lot.
"Oh him?" I reply. "That's just Ian."
Just Ian is the biggest understatement of the century. Just the Mona Lisa. Just the Taj Mahal. Just Ian, with his boring ol' washboard abs and dime-a-dozen dimpled smile.
Just Ian is...just my best friend.
We're extremely close, stuck so deep inside a Jim-and-Pam-style friendzone everyone at work assumes we're a couple - that is until one day, word spreads through the teacher's lounge that he's single. Fair game. Suddenly, it's open season on Ian.
He should be reveling in all the newfound attention, but to our mutual surprise, the only attention he seems to want is mine.
He's turning our formerly innocent nightly chats into X-rated phone calls. Our playful banter sports a new, dangerous edge.
I want to assume he's playing a prank on me, just pushing my buttons like always - but when Ian lifts me onto the desk in my classroom and slides his hands up my skirt, he doesn't leave a lot of room for confusion.
I'm a little scared of things going south, of losing my best friend because I can't keep my hands to myself. So, I'm just going to back away and not return this earth-shattering kiss - oh who am I kidding?!
Goodbye Ian, ol' buddy, ol' pal!
Helloooo mister not so nice guy.

worth the credit for sure!
I listen to audiobooks everyday. 8-5 while I'm working for the last 6 or 7 years at at least. listening to so many of the same kinds of books really dulls the enjoyment in a been there done that sense. this book was first one in a LONG time that not only made me laugh out loud but also got me hot and bothered. so yeah.. take a listen

Started out great...ending not so much
This book started out interesting and quirky, but quickly went down hill. It became formulaic and predictable with the twist literally being that the heroine has a histerical breakdown - this isn’t even a spoiler, its so predictable.
I was really taken with the characters, there was great chemistry and I really like a ‘friends to lovers’ romance, but then I lost interest when the author once again made the men in the book calm and reasonable and the women bitches, stupid, histerical or unreasonable.

Good Humor
Like with the other R.S. Grey books I've listened too the narration is always good and I am guaranteed to laugh. They are sort of my go-to books whenever I've listened to something heavy and need light and fun. This story was no different. Sam and Ian mesh really well in this story. Best Friends who are both secretly in love with the other and although Samantha is scared to take the relationship beyond friends Ian is all for it. Samantha's character is silly and quirky and will make you laugh. I thought it was worth the credit.

LOL Moments
Loved this book. It was an easy read with many literal LOL moments. My husband asked multiple times what was so funny because I was laughing out loud while listening to the book with my headphones on. The narrators were perfect in showing each character's personality.

don't waste your credit
I wanted a light read (listen) as I unpacked the boxes in my new apartment. Thought this was going to be a cutesy rom-com, but this was more like a badly written erotica with little or no character development. Cringed at how helpless the female protagonist felt for no reason what so ever. Most attempts at humor were either stereotypical or just really bad. Save your time and credit for a better book. The only thing good was the narration.

Really nice guy and girl.
Ian is definitely a nice guy, and totally swoonworthy. Sam(antha) is his perfect match. Sometimes friends to lovers novels don’t work for me if the friendship is established off-page before the book begins. However, RS Grey got the formula right here, as she lets the reader feel the deep, loyal friendship Ian and Sam share, plus their frustration because they want more, and their fear of losing what they have. All this is set up with excellent banter and situational comedy.
This novel is for you if you love romance that builds from quick, clever repartees, tongue in cheek humour, respectful, loyal characters with “normal” occupations, slow-burn build-up to the main sexual event – meaning the deep abiding love comes first; and light, happy romance between characters content to live and work in the town where at least one of them grew up.
I listened on Audible. Narrator Luci Christian Bell was a new voice for me, but she carried the youthful, light, humorous tone perfectly for Sam; and Teddy Hamilton was also perfect for Ian. I would like to request more Teddy Hamilton as the hero in audiobooks – his voice is like a honeyed balm. Totally swoonworthy. Together, the narrators were wonderful and gave me a thoroughly enjoyable, romantic experience.
I bought the Whispersync option by first clicking on the Kindle version on Amazon.com, then turning to Audible for the audio version (together, this package is cheaper than the Audible version alone and less than an Audible credit). So worth it to seamlessly switch between reading and listening.
I recommend this novel, especially in the Audible version, but if you can, Whispersync it. It’s a financial and entertainment win-win.

Narration.....
I really liked this story. Predictable HEA but loved it anyway.
The woman was an over-thinker by personality, which is okay, but the further into the book it went it seemed, the more dramatic she became. The more drama there was, the more immature her voice sounded. I went from her sounding like a young, adult professional in the beginning to feeling 3/4 way through that she was a drama teen.
I liked the story well enough to finish but will also be aware in the future when looking at narrators.

They are the worst couple ever. Tedious and so annoying.
Omg like kiss her already, and you, Sam just grow up.
Terrible waste of a credit.

very annoying female character
The narration was fine. The female character was immature, clumsy, and it was annoying that her stupid, almost nonsensical thoughts took foeveeeeevvveeeerrr to stop each time. I skipped ahead quite a bit, but honestly, I wish I had stopped listening earlier in the book

Pretty Good
Teddy Hamilton is one of my favorites. I can listen to him all the time.
Luci Bell was pretty good. First time listening to her narration and I think she did good at portraying Sam.
I like R.S. Grey's books for fun easy listening audibles. This one was not one of my favorites, but I also had to finish it. It had it's funny moments and some predictable ones. I didn't understand the non-kissing moments, I mean I get holding off the sex, but the kissing...come on Ian. Also, Sam was so into Ian, but when it came to him trying to be with her she pushed him away or acted like she was not into him like she wasn't drooling over him.
