My Rating: 5 Stars
Sex Scenes: Yes.
Series: No.
Subject: Falling for her.
Synopsis:
That time I had the brilliant idea to ask my good friend for lessons in sex-ploration…
Awkward? Maybe. But how else is a good girl going to find out if she likes being naughty? I might be sweet as cherry pie, but I'm also bold and damn curious. And Gabe is charming, trustworthy, aces at seduction (or so I hear) and—bonus!— willing to give me lessons. But to guarantee it won’t ruin our friendship, I have some specific requirements for his instruction. I want these classes to be hypothetical more than hands-on. So what if he’s hella sexy? I can handle that, no problem.
***
I have it bad for Arden. She's bright, brilliant, insanely fun, and I want to take her home and spend all night together—and then spend the day with her, too. When she asks for my help, I see my chance to win her sweet heart by showing her how much fun we can have getting spicy. Trouble is, she has a different idea of what “sex-ploration” should mean. Now I’m going to have to get really clever to win her over.
Good thing I know exactly how to upend her best laid plans.
What happens when the nice girl wants to give naughty a go?

I LOVED this book!
Funny stories about fiends becoming lovers always get me and this was no exception.
Gabe was PERFECT! From the beginning he was there for her and he had no problems accepting she was amazing and he couldn’t wait to make his move. The only thing stopping him was the fact that she had been hurt and he wasn’t sure if the timing would be right.
So into the friend zone he went, and he loved it there, that’s how sweet he was.
Arden had horrible taste in men, her last boyfriend not only didn’t appreciate her, but he was a complete jerk. But lucky for her his rude actions let her straight to Gabe and she couldn’t be happier.
Her journey to a naughtier self was hilarious, and at the same time inspirational. We all find ourselves in that moment where we are not sure how to be sexy while taking our clothes off, or insecurities about asking what we want in bed.
She made a plan and went to get her sexy on and I was proud of her!
I read somewhere that love was like friendship on fire and this book reminded me of that.
It is the best description for love I’ve ever read and in Gabe and Arden story is completely true. They outgrew the friendship they had, and when that wasn’t enough anymore they had to set it on fire and turn it into a great and passionate love story.
✦The audiobook is narrated by Joe Arden and Erin Mallon!

Excerpt
~GABE~
Arden has never pumped me for dating details before. Not the tawdry ones at least. I half want to believe it means something, but it could mean nothing at all.
“Just curious,” she says nonchalantly as she grabs her favorite purple ball. She makes it sound so casual, her inquiry. But there’s that word again from Words with Friends—curious—and it snags on my brain. Why exactly is she so curious?
A second later, she gives me the answer. “Everyone’s coming into the bookstore buying these racier books. It just got me thinking.”
She turns away, heads to the top of the lane, and holds the ball in front of her.
And her comment has me thinking too.
About dirtier books.
If she reads them.
What she likes between the sheets.
What her curiosity has piqued exactly. Well, besides me. I’m definitely piqued, and I make a quick adjustment in my jeans so it’s not so damn obvious.
As she tosses the ball down the lane, her left leg arcing behind her, showing a hint of the back of her thighs, I groan.
I want to know the landscape of her body. Want to slide my hands up and down her legs, nibble on her ass, and make her whimper.
I would love to know what would make Arden go wild in bed.
That’s not only because I’m wildly attracted to her.
It’s because I want to know what makes her tick in the bedroom as well as I know what excites her out of it.
I want to know her in every way.
Sooner or later, I’m going to have to figure out how to drive this car clear out of the friend zone.
Sooner is my preference.
Like maybe this weekend at the party here at the bowling alley.
Maybe I can find a way to pique her interest in me.
