About this ebook

A New York Times Bestseller

?Now a Netflix series!

When a tragic accident leads Jackie to move into a house filled with eleven boys, she gets far more than she ever expected. This sweet YA romance is perfect for fans of Kasie West and Jenny Han—and is one of the most beloved Wattpad books ever!

Moving in with eleven boys was not part of the plan.

Jackie's goal is perfection—perfect grades, the perfect look, getting into the perfect school. If she can achieve that, then maybe her too-busy mom and dad will take notice. But when her parents die in a tragic accident, Jackie is shipped off across the country to live with the Walters, her new guardians...who just happen to have eleven sons (plus a daughter who is basically one of the boys).

The Walter boys are loud, dirty, annoying—and, okay, some of the older boys might be Greek god level hot, but they don't think a city girl belongs on their horse ranch. How is Jackie supposed to fit into their chaotic world when she needs to keep her parents' memory alive by living up to the promise of perfect?

But as Jackie spends more time with the Walter boys, she begins to wonder if the perfection she's always strived for isn't the only way to find love after all.

Funny and moving, My Life with the Walter Boys is perfect for readers looking for:

• Wattpad love stories
• contemporary romance for teens
• binge-worthy YA novels
• relatable characters

Ratings and reviews

it was good the first 150 pages but then i kept getting anxious to see of Jackie and Cole would hook up. The book dragged too long. I loved the Cole character but Jackie was a know it all and I would have loved for Parker to have been around Jackie's age and helped Jackie destroyed those men boys. It got boring and she became lame. Then she dates Alex.Book went in the wrong direction

The story is rather promising, but the main character is completely unrelatable and seems incapable of even the smallest things. Tgis ruined thw whole story. If anyone still enjoys the trope of the completely depthless girl with no life skills or personality, that falls for her (more or less) step-brother you might enjoy the book.

For this published version: I am beyond disapointed about this version. I liked the characters addictions but it leaves way too much for imagination. The ending is really poor since there is no sequel to the publish verion. Id give it 1* if i didnt love wattpad version as much as i do. Wattpad: Read it and loved it, altho not the ending since its unfinished but there is a wattpad sequel so that's perfect. I am really disappointed that the ending on wattpad is very similar to here and so unfinished.
