BLURB
A sweet,
flirty, and heartfelt romance with two roommates that spend one enthralling
summer together.
After her car accident, Monica believes her dance career
is over, despite the positive outlook everyone else has. Instead of trying to
get back on her feet, she works on perfecting the art of couch surfing.
Famous author, Gabe Mitchell, doesn’t fare much better. On
top of watching his roommate letting her life pass by, he also suffers from a
major bout of writer’s block.
Hoping a change of scenery will get them both out of their
rut, Gabe takes matters into his own hands and whisks Monica away to his own
personal haven.
What neither one of them expects is the attraction to each
other to bloom even though Monica will leave Brooksville in a matter of weeks.
Their time together is filled with skimpy bathing suits,
sexy fantasy book inspirations, hot tub make-out sessions, and new job
prospects.
It’s plenty to reignite
their creative flames, but will it be enough to turn their one short summer
into something more?

If you've read Baking with a Rockstar then like me you've been waiting for Gabe and Monica's story since then. It was a long wait but it was worth it. This story was super cute and Gabe was just best friend goals!!! Not only are Monica and Gabe friends but they have been roommates for about a year, ever since Monica suffered was in an accident and came to visit her bff Charlie in Brooksville while in recovery.
Monica and Gabe hit it off from the start and he offers her a place to stay. They become friends immediately and grow super close. Gabe is always there for Monica and tries to bring her out of the dark whole she's in due to not being able to dance for so long. As an attempt to bring the vivid, fun Monica back he takes her along with him on vacation to another small town where he owns a house and usually takes off for a "writer's retreat".
It works; Monica slowly starts getting out of the dark fog that was her mind and gets all her sass and lively personality back. Losing the fog also happens to make her see Gabe in a new light or more like, makes it impossible to ignore her attraction to him and their insane sexual tension. Soon not only does Monica start dancing again but she and Gabe also start dancing between the sheets and oh boy is it hot and so fun. I love these two.
If you love romcoms with a teeny tiny bit of emotion, friends to lovers or roommates to lovers, this book just might be for you. It's also a perfect summer read and just a super swoony love story with an amazing hero. You also get to see a lot of Charlie, Hudson and Mira and it's awesome.
EXCERPT:
Pulling out the barstool beside her, I sit down, wanting to be on her eye level. It takes me bumping my knees into hers for her to look at me, but at least she finally does. “Hey! Remember it’s me you’re talking to. We’ve been sharing a house for most of the last year. That’s pretty much as close as anyone has ever been to me, not that I would do this for just anyone. You’re a very sweet, kind, caring, and talented person. You need to get it in your pretty head that you don’t owe me a thing. I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat.”
My words don’t exactly trigger the response I intended as I watch the pink tinge travel up Monica’s neck and cheeks before she covers her face with her hands. “Oh gosh. Stop it already. I can't remember the last time I blushed. How embarrassing.”
Flabbergasted.
I’m absolutely stunned she’s reacting this way.
It’s also interesting she can still surprise me after we’ve known each other all this time.
