Great read, My favorite in the series.
I just love this series!
Chloe is a sweet girl that had a rough couple of years… She lost her job and had to leave the loft she shared with her best friends to live back with her parents. Now she is having a break, got a new job and is back at the loft. But she has a new roommate, Brent!
He is a lumberjack type of guy, but really nerdy and sweet.
A bit of introvert, Brent has difficulties to talk to girls and is still a virgin.
Chloe is in a bit of a mess because of her mother’s expectations and needs a fake fiance to present to her grandmother. Brent is the perfect choice and their relationship is so sweet, sexy and absolutely a joy to read.
I love Noelle Adams and her style of writing. This is just good reading and the book is wonderful.
I loved how shy Brent was, it was so endearing and made this story for me.
You could feel the natural attraction from the very beginning and I’m glad it didn’t take forever for them to realize it, like the other Loft couples. Brent was so sweet and made Chloe feel special just the way she is! They fit seamlessly into each others lives.
I’m going to miss the “Loft”…
Reread review:
Oh my gosh! I had forgotten how amazing this book is! Gah! The steam between Chloe and Brent is combustible! And I especially forgot how much I loved Brent. He was so darn sweet and cute. I’ve never loved a shy hero, that I can remember, but Brent is developed in such a way that I absolutely adored him. I’m definitely going to make sure I reread this book often.
Original review:
Holy heck! This was sooo good! I enjoy everything this author writes but this one definitely takes high honors.
When Chloe’s mom sets her up with a lie, Brent agrees to help her out by becoming her fake fiancé. In return, she promises to help him out. He’s a bit of a nerd, has a problem speaking when confronted with an attractive woman – namely Chloe – and is a virgin. What starts out for Chloe as a bit of fun soon turns into more but what if that isn’t what Brent wants?
I’m not a huge fan of beta heroes but Brent was so darn cute and perfect that I loved him from the very beginning. As it turns out, he might not be the instigator in this relationship because of his shyness, but he has a strong jealous, possessive streak that rose up at the perfect time and made me love him all the more. I absolutely adored him and the fact that what he feels towards Chloe is strong enough to make him overcome his insecurities sealed him in my favorite hero category.
Chloe has quite a bit more experience than Brent and I was initially uncertain how I felt about that. However, when her own insecurities are revealed, I immediately connected with her. Despite her own issues, she’s a strong and independent woman who is learning to stand up against judgement and pressure.
These two together were wonderful. I loved watching their relationship develop from roommates to friends to lovers. The steam between them was scorching and the heat level blasted me into a gooey pile of goodness. (Not like that…get your head out of the gutter!)
This wraps up this series and it is definitely the best of the three and can be read as a standalone.
