“I have a huge favor to ask. I need to practice kissing."

Chloe Clark's smoking hot neighbor and best friend, Liam, needed her help…of the physical sort. Chloe knew it wasn't a joke. Liam was socially awkward, on the spectrum, and single at 33.

Yeah, he was odd, but he was her bestie. Besides, she had her issues too. Like always falling for the wrong guys. But that’s what made them work. They accepted each other for who they were. No pretending. No games. Perfectly platonic.

So, when Liam asked Chloe for help to get him ready for a second chance date with his high school sweetheart she could hardly say no. After all, Liam was woefully inexperienced—like virgin-level pure. It was downright criminal for someone that sexy to be so untouched.

What choice did she have? She couldn't leave her bestie to make a fool of himself with the woman he’d loved since he was a teenager. He just needed a few kisses under his belt, and he’d be fine for his date.

The bumped heads and smooshed noses Chloe expected. What she hadn't counted on, was liking Liam’s kisses. A lot.

When the practice sessions become a major turn-on for Chloe, how will she keep her pesky libido in check? And worse, how was she supposed to hand him over to another woman now?

Find out how a neurodivergent hero and a bad-at-love heroine turn from friends-to-lovers in this sexy contemporary romance!


My Review: Would you ask your best friend to make out with you? I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about this book, but I had to read it after loving Danielle's Pulled series. 

You know what? It wasn't that bad! At first I was kinda ehh I mean it's a bit of an odd request and well Chloe did laugh at Liam, she just though/expected that he already had kissed women and so on. So she agrees to his favor. 

So they practice everything you can think of to make sure Liam is ready for his date. Poor guy is so nervous that when the date gets moved up even sooner he is a mess. But does he still want this date? As he continues practicing with Chloe, I think he realized they have gone past friendship at this point. Well, friendship is pretty much gone to him....

So when he goes on his date and Angel isn't he ever after and brings her home for a drink and Chloe is drunk... well lets just say it was interesting but Liam finally admitted his feelings to Chloe and now she doesn't have to stop herself from thinking and wanting him. Their friendship has changed into something more and it was great to finally see them end up where they belong. I can't wait for the next book!
