He's not a douchebag; but that doesn't stop his friends from turning him into one.
MY FRIENDS WANT ME TO GET LAID.
So much so that they plastered my ugly mug all over campus, in bold printed letters:
Are you the lucky lady who's going to break our roommate's cherry?Him: socially awkward man with average-sized penis looking for willing sexual partner. You: must have a pulse. He will reciprakate with oral. Text him at: 555-254-5551
The morons can't even spell. And the texts I've been receiving are what wet dreams are made of. But I'm not like these douchebags, no matter how hard they try to turn me into one.
THIS ISN'T THE KIND OF ATTENTION I WANT.
One text stands out from hundreds. One number I can't bring myself to block. She seems different. Hotter, even in black and white.
However, after seeing her in person, I know she's not the girl for me. But my friends won't let up--they just don't get it. Douchebags or not, there's one thing they'll never understand:
GIRLS DON'T WANT ME.
Especially her.
The third book in the how to date a douchebag series, introduces a new douchebag not the one I was expecting (or anyone probably was) to be sure. I thought it would be someone we previously knew from the other books and the couple would be from the characters we knew in the series but this time it was about two new characters instead. I was eagerly anticipating the release of this book and it did not disappoint! This will be a relatively short review (for me, at least) because I donât want to give away too much.
This story follows the newly transferred student Rhett Rabideaux and Laurel Bishop. Rhett being a wrestler and all becomes a part of the Oz (The Studying Hours) and Zekeâs (The Failing Hours) group. Rhett and Laurel meet at fraternity party that ends badly for them. The romance is a slow burn as you get to see them from being strangers to friends to falling in love with each other. Iâm omitting like serval stages of their relationship here but you get the point.
I loved the twist this book had, I also love Sara Neyâs heroes so it was no surprise to anyone that I LOVED Rhett. That man is something else. It took me a long time to like the Laurel but I did (probably because Rhett loved her). Their story is very different to the other books in the series, in a good way and we get to experience the whole trying to be in a relationship in the new adult stage in life in all itâs glory.
Quibbles: Thereâs also side characters I hated like Rhettâs choice in roommates but poor guy didnât know any better and I continue to hate them even nowâĤ.
This book has the usual Sara Ney humour, romance, sweet and spicy moments! You go through a whole lot of emotions during the book and so in particular order I felt happy, angry, sad, upset, joy and some more anger/happiness and satisfaction. I think anyone who enjoy hate to love and inner beauty outshining outer beauty stories would enjoy this one! Overall, a great addition to a fab series.
About Sara Ney
Purveyor of all things witty & romantic, I love: iced latte’s, traveling, and bright, bold colors. On any given day, you can find me in my office, lovingly gazing at my bookshelf or shuffling my Bic felt-tip pen collection. I love hand writing letters, and sarcasm.
I live in the midwest, but “Will Write for Travel,” and believe everyone should follow their dreams, no matter how big or small. My favorite authors include Cindy Miles, S Walden, Suzanne Enoch, Tessa Dare (to name a few). I am a glutton for Historical, RomCom, Sports and MC romance.
One husband. Two daughters. Plenty of chaos.
I have been so curious about this author and this series. I do love those books that do the whole inner beauty focus. Lovely review.
