Rule #1: Don’t let your ex move in with you.Rule #2: Don’t have sex with your ex.Rule #3: Don’t fall asleep hugging a turkey leg.I woke up to an empty apartment and things just got worse from there. My roommate took everything even my epic purple couch. Rent coming due means I’m desperate, but not desperate enough for Travis freaking Westmister to live with me. That is, until my brother convinces … until my brother convinces me his best friend and my mortal enemy is his only hope.
Now the man I gave my v-card to before he disappeared is parading around my house shirtless, toned, tanned and ripped.
Oh, God, I will not go there. He broke my heart and I hate his guts.
Except, he’s not who I thought he was at all.
Now I can’t cross the line because then I won’t have a roommate plus me and my virginity hate him.
Don’t we?

Meant to be
Another great book by this dynamic duo. And as soon as I read the blurb, with three infamous rules, I couldn’t stop smiling. I knew this was gonna be a fun read!
This story revolves around Nina and Travis. They have a bit of a history, giving him her v-card to him in her late teens. Those feelings never really got a chance to be explored or to develop.
There was so much angst and drama, and some of it stemming from simple, mutual misunderstandings. Their stubbornness not helping the situation. Other drama was just generated by a couple of real fruit-loops!
Being thrown together again in a temporary living arrangement will undoubtedly cause some issues. The way they navigate these and the relationship they begin to redevelop, is full of laughs and some frustration.
But there were plenty of sweet, romantic and super-HOT steamy moments. WOAH! I guess those old feelings never really go away (in this case anyway). The story was heart-warming and gives hope of finding true love.
I would definitely recommend this book, and as always, I look forward to these authors’ next writing project!

This was a good story but I had a harder time relating with Nina. She feels somewhat childish and immature at times. She also seems to have double standards. She can do something but others cannot. Travis is sweet and caring and is a great character. The story is well written and the descriptions are vivid. There is a HEA in the story and we see a lot of changes in our characters. It is a beautiful story that is most certainly worth reading!
The comedy of mistakes – very entertaining, heartwarming and sexy
One faithful night and two broken hearts. But don’t be fooled it’s not the cliche you think you already read. It was very entertaining story with lots of steamy but in the same time ridiculously entertaining moments. I laugh out loud, maybe I get a little bit emotional in some parts. I felt connected to the story and to the main characters. Very easy, light read, kept me reading into the early morning hours but it was so worth my time. Thank you to the authors and I’m waiting for more from you.
This was such a sweet read. It’s written by Jenna Reed, a pseudonym for Josi Beck and Cassie Hallman. This book is quite different from the books they’ve coauthored previously. It’s light and fun and enchanting. Now to be honest, I don’t normally read books like this, preferring the darker worlds of romance, but it is well written and very satisfying. It was a nice diversion into a sweeter world filled with normal, good people.
Nina and Travis should have been together for a very long time, but a misunderstanding drove them apart. Travis left and Nina mourned his leaving and nothing got settled for years. Nina’s brother brings them together again when Nina needs a roommate and Travis needs a place to stay. And the story unfolds from there. It was lovely watching these two discover each other again.
I’ve always admired these two authors. I absolutely love their books. And even though this isn’t my preferred genre, I did enjoy it. The characters made their way into my heart, and I found myself wanting them to find happiness. The story is a good one, entertaining and well constructed. The side characters enhance the read. This is a feel good romance. One I think you’ll enjoy. Highly recommended.
I adored this book. It was cute. It was funny. It’s a enjoyable read.
Nina cracks me up. She awkward and has no filter sometimes. She the type of person I would love to be friends with. Travis is a good guy. I love the way he loves Nina. These two together are so freaking adorable!
Roommates & Thieves is another home run for Jenna Reed! I can’t get over just how incredible this series has become. Each story shows me the huge potential of this wildly creative author. This fantastic series just keeps getting better and better with each story that entertains and destroys and rebuilds my heart page by page. I truly can’t ask for anything more then just plain more from this brilliant author!
Nina has woken up to a nightmare of epic proportions. Unable to fix any of this huge mess, all she can do is move on. However, in her attempt to move on she finds herself moving backwards directly into her past. For good or for bad the only man she ever loved is back, and she wants him to keep moving on. Travis isn’t sure if he is doing his best friend a favor or doing his heart a disservice. Sometimes being a good guy just gets you nothing but pain and disappointment. Can these two lost, lonely hearts find some peace and maybe a little something more about their hard and long years apart? Does time make the heart grow fonder or just more bitter?
You could just feel the heat and the confusion and the want from these two roommates. They enjoyed dancing around each other more then anything it seemed and yet their heart hurt at the missed communication and connection after all the years apart. It is hard to open up when your heart has been ripped apart with no explanation. You simply can’t risk another devastating rejection unless you have the chance for something better. This couple pulled at my heart strings bit time, and I was nearly yelling at them to just sit down and talk to each other. That is so easy said then done though.
Jenna Reed has delivered another genius masterpiece that I greedily devoured and exquisitely savored every second of! She is a wicked master of the human heart and knows how to bring me to my knees every single time. I can’t wait to see what she creates next! Whatever you do, run to read this book and any of the others in this wonderful series! You will not regret it.
Oh poor Nina should be in a helmet and elbow pads. I’m surprised that at some point she wasn’t put into a cast. Nina is about as normal as can be but heavy on the dork. She hits her head and elbows a lot. There is even a hair cut she gets herself trapped into that will have you giggling and shaking your head. Travis is her brother’s best friend and a crazy girl magnet. They had a hookup as teens but after a misunderstanding he leaves. Him believing a lie and her confused and heartbroken. He comes back to help his parents and she gets screwed over by her roommate. Her brother, Grady, sticks them together in her apartment as a solution for both of them. From there all kinds of fun happens. There are a few minor spelling glitches for those of you who get stuck on stuff like that. This story is a good read. I laughed so much and they are just cute. I definitely recommend reading this.
