About this listen

Libraries are meant for studying - not sex.

College sophomore Ethan Follett never says what's on his mind and never wants to rock the boat. After a high school social life spent anonymous and alone, things are finally falling into place for him. He's found a group of friends just as studious as he and is on track for a promising legal career. Out in the open, things couldn't be better, but secretly Ethan yearns for some real excitement in his life.

He finds it in cocky frat boy Greg Sanderson, who challenges every rigid, preconceived notion Ethan lives by. Soon, their sparring relationship turns sexual, and these enemies-with-benefits "get their freak on" all over campus. Yet the more Ethan comes out of his shell, the more Greg retreats into his, working overtime to keep his ladies' man public persona intact. As the sex gets hotter, and they get closer to getting caught, one part of their arrangement can't stay hidden any longer: love.

Contains mature themes.

Ethan, a studious, fairly uptight college student, is annoyed when he has to sit next to Greg, an obnoxious frat boy who doesn’t take his classes seriously. I usually prefer romance novels narrated from both main characters’ POV, but it was intriguing only being in Ethan’s head as he and I both puzzled out what was going on in Greg’s head. Fun & expertly performed by Alexander Cendese!

Fun with great narration!

Loved THIS book. I considered Starting over and listening to it again. I felt this book was not only entertainment, but it also went into the emotional and the many struggles that guys have with Crushes & uncertainty. I highly recommend this book, Honestly one of the best Romance books I ever had the pleasure of listening to. Now on to Book 2 in the series.

I’m just now discovering the Browerton U. series, and this first book in the series is delightful. MM Romances with a college setting are my jam, so this book really hit my sweet spot. The tensions between the two main characters about coming out are believable and well written, the sex scenes are pretty hot (though I would have liked even more spice and explicitness), and the HEA ending was SWEET! Above all, though, the voice-actor of this book, Alexander Cendese, is simply outstanding, and made it a compelling listen that, for me, really elevated the book…I now want to search out any MM Romances narrated/acted by Cendese! Cendese not only differentiates the two MC’s quite well, he even voices the supporting characters well…including doing a great job of voicing the females. So definitely recommend this book, especially if you like college age, new adult stories with a good mix of humor, conflict, and spiciness!

Good story, cute college-set romance, GREAT narration!
