About this ebook

USA TODAY BESTSELLER 

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Happened One Summer and Hook, Line, and Sinker comes a sexy and hilarious rom-com trilogy about three broke and beautiful roommates...

Construction worker Russell Hart has been head-over-work boots for Abby Sullivan since the moment he laid eyes on her. But he knows a classy, uptown virgin like her could never be truly happy with a rough, blue-collar guy like him. If only she'd stop treating him like her personal hero—a role he craves more than oxygen—maybe he could accept it.

With the future of her family's company on her shoulders, Abby barely has time to sleep, let alone find love. And her best friend Russell acting like a sexy, overprotective hulk any time their Super Group goes out in public definitely isn't helping her single status. But after a near-tragedy lands Russell in her bed for the night, Abby's suddenly fantasizing about what he looks like shirtless. Chest hair and tattoos—who knew?

As Russell struggles to keep Abby at a safe distance, she begins to see through his tough-talking exterior—and acknowledge her own feelings. Now she's ready to turn the friend-zone into foreplay…and make him lose control.

Ratings and reviews

Abby and Russell, the last two standing, out of the super group of their friends. First Louis and Roxy paired up, then Ben and Honey, and while Russell would like nothing more to be with Abby, she is oblivious, and his past clouds his present Russell and Abby are the best of friends, even though he really wants more. But then he doesn't, because he doesn't think he is good enough. It doesn't stop him from fantasizing though, because no matter the nature of his relationship with Abby, he needs, like really needs, to look after her Abby has always done what is expected of her, because any time she hasn't, she has been left alone. Fitting in isn't her thing, neither is standing out, so she hides who she is, except with Russell. Somehow, he sees her, and she can show herself to him, and he doesn't go away. In fact, he does everything he can to seek her out. One moment, one time, and Abby sees past the friends they are to something more. Trouble is, these two are not operating on the same wavelengths and misinterpret everything the other says, or does. One thing they can't deny, that they are miserable without each other. Getting past their past, accepting their current lives, and moving forward is a huge struggle They will make you cry, they will give you butterflies, and they will take your breathe away, while they figure this all out - perfection!

So sad this series is over. This was definitely my favourite of the three; Tessa Bailey writes the best Alphas.

Loved their story!!
