Summary

Starlight Cove's prim little librarian has despised me since the first day I parked my motorcycle on her sidewalk. Now our feud has landed us as roommates…and she just asked me to teach her every dirty thing she's never experienced.

Making Penelope Shea lose her mind has been my favorite hobby since she moved here. But our infamous daily sparring backfires when the town's meddling grandma sentences us to five hundred hours of community service…or thirty days of living together.

Penelope chooses cohabitation with the enemy to protect her spotless record. I agree because watching her unravel sounds like fun.

What I don't expect is to discover my rule-enforcing roommate has secrets—namely, a hidden career penning filthy romances and a list of sinful lessons she's written about but never learned firsthand.

Like an idiot, I volunteer as her tutor.

Penelope calls it research. I call it trouble. Because somewhere between her first lesson and her first tattoo, she goes from being in my head to being in my bed. Now she's under my skin as permanently as my ink is under hers. Our month is almost up. But I've never been good with rules—and letting her walk away isn't one I plan to follow.

I absolutely loved Declan and Penelope! The forced roommates, sticky note wars, banter and tension had me completely hooked, and I loved watching Penelope slowly let him in. Aiden Snow and Charlotte North were PERFECT, and the duet narration made their chemistry even better — Aiden Snow saying “good girl”… yeah, I was never surviving that.

the duet narration was EVERYTHING

Small towns are so wonderful and the side characters are so wonderful I love the setup for the next book as well.

Love a found family

I just love the character of Declan! Penelope was okay as a character, but for me. Nothing matches the Grump Next Door for narration, characters and story.

Still good fun though.

Fun Fourth Steele Brother!

I thought this one might be my favourite as I loved the idea of these two characters, but this one just didn’t seem to work. The first book remains my favourite!
