About this listen

When physics grad student Fielding Monroe and skirt-chaser and football player Mick Colman become college housemates, they're both in for a whole new education. Mick looks out for the absent-minded genius, and he helps Fielding clean up his appearance and discover all the silly pleasures his strict upbringing as a child prodigy denied him. They become best friends.

It's all well and good until they run into a cheerleader who calls Mick the "best kisser on campus". Fielding has never been kissed, and he decides Mick and only Mick can teach him how it's done. After all, the physics department's Christmas party is coming up with its dreaded mistletoe. Fielding wants to impress his peers and look cool for once in his life. The thing about Fielding is, once he locks onto an idea, it's almost impossible to get him to change his mind. And he just doesn't understand why his straight best friend would have a problem providing a little demonstration.

Mick knows kissing is a dangerous game. If he gives in, it would take a miracle for the thing not to turn into a disaster. Then again, if the kissing lessons get out of hand, they can always blame it on the mistletoe.

Thoroughly enjoyable!

Mick Colman has a reputation on campus for women and football but needs a quiet housemate to concentrate on his studies. He forms an unexpected friendship with his new housemate, Fielding Monroe, a young physics grad student. While Mick is worldly-wise, Fielding is brainy but naive and socially awkward. When Fielding requests lessons in kissing girls, Mick is forced to confront deeply closeted feelings he’d rather avoid. This was such a charming odd-couple / sexual awakening story - heartwarming - like so many of Eli Easton’s books are! It’s short but it doesn’t feel rushed or lacking in anything crucial and while it’s set during the Festive Season, Christmas and mistletoe don’t play a big role. It’s more about two decent guys taking a chance on each other. The story is told from Mick’s perspective. He’s a jock and we see him really struggle with his self-acceptance. Fielding is a ‘Sheldon’-type character, but without Sheldon’s annoying side. It was thoroughly enjoyable with audio narrator Jason Frazier giving a fabulous performance, he provides the perfect amount of sweetness and heat!
