4.5 stars.

This gets docked slightly for a stressful office sex scene that includes using spit for lube for 🍑 stuff and some uncertainty about the neurodivergent rep.

I'm not completely sure if the rep is good or not but I would believe you if you say it's good or not good. I really can't tell. There are some uncomfortable scenes/thoughts in here re: Rush's ADHD. Perhaps they are good rep and just uncomfy... but there are some things that don't quite feel right.

Otherwise, this was great and a lot of fun.

These two meet because they both were dating and sleeping with the same man. Both are in long-term relationships with that man when they accidentally meet when Rush attempts to celebrate his one-year anniversary with his boyfriend while Hunter is having a holiday gathering with the same guy.

The great thing about these two getting together is that we get two givers who get together. You know how a lot of relationships (especially unhealthy ones) have a giver and a taker? Well, both of them were givers and their mutual ex was a taker.

There are a lot of great cameos from the other roommates at Big Bertha as well as great humor as the two connect over ant puns.

Thankfully, the revenge plot doesn't get in the way of a sweet romance and a final and satisfying true revenge against their ex.

Safety deets
- They are both struggling to get over the OM and the hurt the ending of that relationship did to them. But neither want anyone else during the book.
- Epilogue 8 months later with them together.
- Explicit sexy scenes throughout, including the aforementioned stressful one in the office.
- No third act breakup.
- ADHD rep.

It was super cute and a fun audiobook! :)


❀ Jess ( Semi hiatus ) Woooo! So glad to see how much you enjoyed this! I can’t wait to read this too. 🥺


Elizabeth I love this series. The roommates are really fun.


Noi I am so curious about the ADHD representation but if it bad I'll cry so maybe I shouldn't


Elizabeth @Noi... I don't know enough about ADHD to know of this was good rep. I have female friends with ADHD and they present differently. This dude gets hyper focused which means he doesn't sleep or eat for days so his roommates watch over him and get him to at least eat enough to live. Feels extreme but I don't know if that's a real kind of thing.
