Wrong Bed, Right Roommate

This was a really good story from a new to me author.

Just like most women out there, I’ve had that moment in my life where I ‘dreamed the dream’, ‘wished the wish’ when it came to my brother’s best friend. I absolutely adore reading this genre and seeing how it could come to fruition in fiction.
So, I understand how Jessie felt seeing her high school hot crush hooking up with her friends and being ignored by him. It hurt terribly, and that hurt and dismissal turned into dislike and hatred. Feelings that never seemed to wane over the years as Shawn continued to be a self-absorbed douche.
But, Shawn hasn’t had the easiest of times. He’s wandering rather aimlessly through his life and really, he needs direction and structure. Now, after years of fruitless endeavors he’s finally found a job he enjoys, but having just moved to the area, he’s homeless and crashing on a friend’s couch. When the chance comes to sublet his sister, Talia’s, room in the apartment she shares with Jessie, he jumps at it, thinking that everything is okay.
Jessie is unaware of Shawn’s imminent arrival and gets the fright of her life when he mistakenly lands in her bed, while she is sleeping.
This could go from bad to worse, but Jessie discovers a different size to Shawn. One she can’t resist for long and soon they are spending every spare moment together. They’re hot and heavy with the whole summer ahead of them. These two were very convincing from the start. The chemistry was there from the moment they met again, and even when they were trying not to fall for each other, it was so obvious they couldn’t help doing just that.
But what happens when summer is over?
I really enjoyed this book. Shawn was so different from the usual hero. He’s not rich or famous. In fact, he’s just a regular guy who’s not always made the best decisions in life. He’s sweet and caring. He might not have much experience in the boyfriend/ relationship department but he’ll do his best for his girl.
Until Talia comes back into the picture.
Will she embrace their being together?
Up until this moment, I’d liked Talia, even though she wasn’t in the story much, she’s a side character, but for all she was Jessie’s best friend, she had a very selfish side to her and she let it out when she discovered what had been going on. Jessie has always felt insecure and inadequate next to Talia and this just makes her spiral back into a bad place. Shawn’s reaction isn’t much better and it all implodes badly.
Is this the end or will they find a way back to each other?
