Story
I’m a man with too many secrets, so the last thing I need is a new roommate with a sexy smile and blue eyes that see right through me. Eight years ago, Roderick left town after high school. We’re not friends. I owe him nothing. But back then, I let one of my secrets slip, and he’s the only one who noticed. Part of me knows I should run far, far away. But the other part wants him to come upstairs and spend the night. But if I let him in, I could lose everything.

Story
Living with four other guys, it's bound to happen. Every guy's been caught taking care of business at least once, right? It shouldn't be a big deal. But I don't know Eric as well as my other roommates, and things are a little awkward now. He's a loner. A mystery. Quietly confident. Smart. Sexy as hell. I've been happily subsisting on the typical frat guy diet of booze and sorority girls. But the way Eric looked at me that night? There was something there. Something that's got me curious. Something that's stirring up feelings I thought I'd left behind for good.

Story
Every bartender should follow one simple rule - don't go home with the customers. That’s been easy for me to stick to, until the night a cocky, confident, and sinfully charming hockey star walks into my bar. This sexy athlete is too hard to resist, especially when he makes it clear how much he wants the “sarcastic, witty, hot AF” guy behind the bar - also known as me. Still, I’m not keen on breaking my own rules since I know where that can lead - no place good.
Publisher's Summary
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.

A Relatable Read for the College-Age Gay Man
One things I can say about this book that I can't say about most of the romances I have read, is that I find it relatable. It felt real, with just enough fantasy mixed in to keep it exciting. Hearing Ethan's inner monologue throughout reminded me of myself when I started college, and I found myself wanting so badly to impart wisdom onto him. It was nice to see how he grew and developed as a character.
Ethan and Greg's relationship is something amazing, and I enjoyed following it through all the ups and the downs that happen throughout the book. I found it exciting, adorable, and extremely hot. I felt so invested in their relationship, I found myself smiling, "awing" out loud, and on the verge of tears right there with them. I haven't felt so invested in book characters since middle school!
The narration from Cendese is phenomenal. His voice really brought the characters to life, detailing both their demeanor and their emotions. I was impressed, and even went to his page to see what else he had narrated. I am looking forward to rest of the books in this series, as he narrates all of them so far.
Fair warning, there is a lot of sex in this title. If you like that, then this is a great book for you. Still, the book isn't all about sex. So if you don't mind it, it is worth getting through to enjoy the great story. Highly recommend.

story was not what I thought
first things first I changed the speed at which the story is being read at from 1.0 to .85 after that story speed felt a lot better. the book starts off feeling like a story on a fanfiction site. but as the characters develop little by little the story hooked me in more and more. and by the time I knew it I was at the end of the book. I will say the person narrating the book although, he may not have a wide range of voices(there were moments I had no idea who was saying what). I really did appreciate the constant amount of enthusiasm through the book.5 🌟 for effort all in all not bad.

Enjoyable, Funny, and Sexy
If only it had been longer, instead of rushing to an end too early! The characters are well drawn and the narrator is really good. We get everything through Ethan’s eyes but there’s plenty of hot descriptions and it all works together. More of the same please AJ Truman, and longer novels!

Fantastic!
This book was so good. In the movie Happiness Adjacent the main character was often reading the book while on a cruise. Good movie, so I wanted to see what book he was reading. SO glad I did.

Oh the memories...
This is a sweet story of two coming og age All American boys, that familiar forbidden fruit feeling and adrenalin rush of realizing the feeling is mutual. It does feel a bit repetitive after the first rush, but overall a nice ride along the way.

Fun with great narration!
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!
