For review

My thoughts:
I do like Lauren Layne on audio! They are always fun and this one was no different.

But what a crazy premise. Oh Brit, you should have known ;)

Poor Brit. She has no luck with men. They all see her as a sister or a friend. She is smart, fun, cute, but no, stupid men. There is nothing not like about her.

Hunter is sweet, but yes a player. I know he says he is not a player. And in a way he isn't. But he seems to constantly be on first dates cos they never become more. Still, he is a great guy.

Two best friends. I envy their great relationship. We all should have friends like this.

Right, the plan. She needs someone to teach her to get her man. To be more sexy. To seduce. To be something they want to date. Maybe asking your BFF is not the best idea. We ALL know which way that is gonna take. But it is so funny to see them become more awkward and to see each other in a new light. Cos they are so freaking perfect for each other. They should always have been a thing.

Conclusion:
'Friendship, passion and a great cast of side characters.  These are the people you would love to meet for real.
A fun book!

PS. I have not read the previous Oxford books, only the Stiletto ones, but even though you meet lots of side characters I never felt like I had missed out. The perfect stand alone.

Narration
She did a great job with all their voices and I enjoyed it all


Blurb:
Brit Robbins knows that dating in New York City is hard—she just hoped to have it mastered by age thirty. But after yet another promising suitor says they have no sparks, Brit decides it’s time to torch her dating game and try a new plan. And who better to coach Brit through the art of seduction than the guy who first gave her the “let’s be friends” card?

Hunter Cross has always figured there’s nothing his best friend Brit can do to surprise him. But Brit’s request is a surprise he doesn’t see coming—and one he’s definitely not prepared for. Hunter and Brit have always been careful to keep things perfectly platonic, but the fake dates and faux flirting are starting to feel like the real deal. And soon Hunter realizes he has taught Brit too well. Not only has she become an expert at seduction, the man becoming thoroughly seduced is him.

  4. Interesting, it's not often you see the woman as the one in the friend zone. Pretty fun and cute premise.

    1. But then it's not like she wanted him, they were happy to be friends, until she came up with her crazy scheme

  5. I really like stories like this! A friend asking another friend for help (especially with dating) and then realizing they've been madly in love for years! <3
