Story
My new neighbor is a firefighter - and a scorching-hot single dad - but I swear I didn’t set off that smoke alarm on purpose. (And I was beyond mortified when he rushed in and saw me naked.) Nothing happened, of course - because I, Winnie MacAllister, romance junkie and owner of a constantly broken heart, have sworn off men for one solid year. Even protective men with chiseled jaws, bulging biceps, and deep brown eyes that make my breath come faster.

Story
Hockey players are off limits...especially if they're on your brothers' team. The last time Jordan did that, it ended in disaster. It was easy to promise her brothers she'd never date another one of their teammates again. Until she meets Jake. The spark she feels when she spends time with him makes her promise harder and harder to keep. Surely, her brothers would understand breaking this promise if it means following her heart. Wouldn't they?

It all started with an anonymous letter. He wasn’t supposed to find it - no one was. And he definitely wasn’t supposed to answer it. We end up talking through letters and sticky notes in a book. All baring our darkest, deepest secrets. It’s all fun and games until I find out who my pen pal is...Xavier Emery. King of my basketball-obsessed town, my childhood bully, and the guy I am in grave danger of falling in love with. But the rules were clear: We can never know who we’re talking to, and the confessions can never, ever get out.

Hockey star Max Yearwood was everything I needed at the time - fun, sexy, up for anything, and only around for a few months, since he’d signed with a new team 3,000 miles away. Max proposed we spend the summer helping me forget my ex. It sounded like a good plan. Things couldn’t get too serious when we had an expiration date. Right? Though, you know what they say about the best-laid plans.

No matter what, keep contact with my cheating ex-wife to a minimum, and turn Maxwell Wineries into a legacy that keeps Paisley set for life. When I hire Lexi to look after my daughter, I realize I need another rule: Don’t pursue Paisley’s nanny. But even if I had that rule it wouldn’t matter. Because I'm breaking it already.

West Golden - so easy to hate, yet so hard to resist. Don’t let that pretty face of his fool you. He isn’t the boy next door, or the kind you trust with your heart. He’s the devil in designer jeans, with all the charm of a bona fide psycho. Trust me. He swears I did something to cross him before I even stepped foot inside Cypress Prep, but it’s a lie. No one knows better than me that I’m all out of chances. His money, status, and the loyalty of his equally entitled brothers makes him seem untouchable. Only, I know better than that.

Summary
@UofJ411: What’s happening here? #TheyDoSayOppositesAttract #WhereAreAllThePost-its
On a scale of one to 10, Quinn Thompson is a 15.
Gorgeous. Fiery. A cheerleader so far out of my league, it’s embarrassing that I even fantasize about her.
I need to find a way to shut down the dirty thoughts she inspires, before it’s too late. If I don’t, this whole new life of mine is at risk.
Easier said than done, when temptation lives right down the hall.
For such a smart guy, C.K. can be surprisingly clueless.
Sweet. Shy. The star of all my naughty nerd fantasies, but utterly blind to my flirtations.
Giving in to his plea to be his love coach may seem drastic, but I’m desperate for the chance to come off the bench.
Too bad the friend zone was a hell of a lot safer for my heart.

I think you absolutely should listen to the previous books in order to understand this book. I love the “opposites attracts” theme and Connor Crais, but this book is sooo confusing.

Hot Nerd for the Win!
CK is the prime example of why they say you have watch out for the quiet nerdy types. That man had some bark and bite to him. Holy mother of everything that is dirty, I was not ready for CK. He left me straight up salivating at the deliciously filthy things he said and in the ways he backed it up. He and Quinn’s story is a lesson is delayed gratification because boy oh boy did these two take you through! You ever just want to grab two people and throw them in a room together and force them to out of denial? Well, even that didn’t work for CK and Quinn, these two were utterly and adorable clueless to each other’s feelings! But, I loved every second of them denying and then finally giving in! It made for one hilariously entertaining read! Connor Crais, Ava Erickson and Lola James were audio gold!

Great Addition
What a great addition to the U of J series. Loved the narration. It brought the characters to life and made me fall in love with CK and Q more.
I loved the flip on this usual jock and shy nerd girl trope. Q was the perfect match to CK. They both had insecurities they had to work through and once they did, fireworks central people. Did they drive me crazy at times? Absolutely. Did I love them more for it? He’ll yeah. Give this one a listen and fall in love with their story and these wonderful characters like I did.
