Zoey

Turning thirty is overrated. Who said you had to be married with a fabulous career and three kids? I had a great life. Single, freedom to do whatever I please, and best of all, stay home on a Friday night in my sweats, eating pizza while listening to the best of the ’80s.

I’m fine.

Drew

When a woman says she’s fine, she’s not fine. Zoey had it all. Stunning looks, ambition, the whole package. Then he fucked her up. He broke her.

And now I’m left picking up the pieces…again.

Zoey Richards, strong-willed and driven, settled on the geeky struggling med student to share her apartment with, not the perfect-in-every-way stud who would just distract her and undoubtedly break her heart.

When her ex comes back into the picture, Zoey seeks revenge and enlists her roommate’s help. All Zoey and Drew need to do is pretend to be a couple for one night. But one night can change everything. Refusing to break their “roomie code,” and in an effort to deny their feelings for each other, a war erupts between Zoey and Drew.

She lives in the past; he, for the future. If opposites attract, will these two gamble their friendship for a chance at love?

“What’s wrong with being single? Sex isn’t everything,” I play it off. “Besides, lots of people masturbate and it’s perfectly healthy. In fact, studies have shown that people who masturbate daily have longer and happier lifespans than those that don’t.”

“Says the man who has a revolving door in his bedroom.” She rolls her eyes. “And you’re trying to sell masturbation to me over the touch of a man?”

“Yes.” I act confidently. “But it’s different for a male. The whole sex thing. It doesn’t matter how many women we sleep with.”

“No it’s not, Drew. Women equally have that urge. That need to get down and dirty as much as a man. It’s just not as widely accepted for women to feel that way without being called a tramp.”

“You don’t need a guy to validate yourself.” I sound like a fucking hypocrite, given that I was trying to push her onto Rob that day at the beach. But that was different. And it was before I thought I was going to lose her. Things have changed. Jesus fucking Christ, would you listen to yourself! What is all this ‘feelings’ bullshit going on in my head?!

Roomie Wars. Sounds like a whole lot of fun doesn’t it? 

Whilst this story certainly had its funny moments it had equal parts of emotional scenes.

We meet Zoey when she is on the lookout for a new roommate. After interviewing quite a few she sets her eyes on the slightly nerdy and chubby Andrew. She thought this would be a safe bet.

Fast forward a few years.

Zoey is turning thirty and just came out of a really bad break-up. She used to be a very ambitious woman that took care of herself but after the break-up she let herself completely go. 

Now Drew (aka Andrew) on the other hand, he has turned his life around for the better. No longer the chubby nerd he is now a full fledged ladies man and on his way to become a surgeon.  

Over the years they grew closer yet nothing happened between them. All because the rules they set when Drew moved in. 

But when Zoey’s ex Jess comes back into the picture they have to change the rules. So when that happens something irrevocably changes the bond between them. 

Chemistry skyrockets and feelings come to the surface. But is either of them ready to do anything about it? 

Zoey is a big piece of work I tell you! Her indecisiveness when it comes to Jess is quite frustrating and during that time I felt very sorry for Drew. 

What happens between Jess’s return and the end of the book will make you pull your hair a few times but rest assured when I tell you that the story will become full circle. 

Overall an enjoyable read with a few funny and emotional moments, a superschmexy hero and a slightly frustrating heroine.
