This story follows Beatrix and Cooper. Beatrix is working alongside her ex-boyfriend’s older brother when, during a drunken night, she creates a list with her girlfriends of things she wants to explore in the bedroom. Faced with a potential threat, she accepts the offer to move in with Cooper, a handsome NFL player, for the summer. But what could go wrong?

This was such a good read, and the audiobook was fantastic! I loved the premise of the story and honestly couldn’t stop laughing when the “list” was read out loud. The chemistry between the two characters was brilliant, and the relationship between Beatrix and Cooper’s daughter, Lizzy, was so sweet. I didn’t see the twist coming regarding the person behind the threats, and I absolutely loved how their relationship was flaunted in front of her ex—plus, Cooper standing up for her was perfect. Overall, this was a great read!
