About this ebook

Gemma Summers is unlucky in love.

She’s known it since third grade, when her first crush blew a spitball into her hair, and a decade-long string of bad dates, boring sex, and abysmal morning-afters has done nothing to improve her prospects.

When a random radio contest lands her courtside tickets to the hottest playoff game of the season, Gemma thinks her luck may finally be on the upswing — at least, until the dreaded jumbotron kiss-cam lands on her and her date, who’s too busy ignoring her to notice…

Thankfully, the sexy stranger sitting next to her is more than willing to step in.

One kiss.

Two strangers.

No strings attached.

Or… so she thinks. Turns out, kissing Chase Croft — Boston’s most eligible bachelor — may be enough to convince even a girl who’s given up on love to let down her guard one last time...

NOT YOU IT’S ME is a full-length, comedic contemporary romance about a girl who doesn’t believe in love… and the man who changes her mind. It is the first installment of the internationally bestselling BOSTON LOVE STORY series and can be read as a complete standalone. Due to sexy-times and strong language, it is intended for readers 17 and up.

Ratings and reviews

I loved this book. This author is a new author for me, so I plan to read more from her. The chemistry was off the charts. There were some funny parts and of course conflict. Overall it was a well written book and transported you to the world of fiction. That being said their whirlwind romance was a bit unbelievable. And the author needs to remember their time frames and be realistic and it seemed like the author forgot Gemma was shot. I know adrenaline can make people endure a lot, but seems a little unrealistic. overall glad I read it. I will probably read it again someday.

Light-hearted, fun and well written story. Rom com style with some extra suspense moments to keep things interesting. Some crazy shenanigans had me lol. 1st story I've read by this author. A very enjoyable read, will be purchasing more in the series.

I liked Gemma's quirky, even if I did find it a bit immature at times but still an adorable book. The mystery and intrigue kept it from being too boring
