Blurb:

Strike One-My mother named me Theodore after her favorite chipmunk.

Not cool, Mom.

I‘ve spent most of my life answering to Teddy, because I couldn’t make Theo work.

Except for here. College. The place where all bets are off, and I’ve managed to redeem myself.

There’s only one problem, my new roommate, Troy, is football royalty and looks like he stepped off the set of an Abercrombie shoot.

Doesn’t matter, I cook a mean breakfast for his panty parade, and we get along well.

And anyway, this year I got the girl. And she’s perfect.

That’s right. Theodore Houseman, former band geek, now marching band rock star has finally landed the girl of his dreams.

Everything is perfect.

That is, until Troy takes a good look at her.

I’m not going down without a fight. As a matter of fact, I’m not going down at all. As glorious as these days may be for my all-star roommate, Laney is my end game.

I may not know much about play strategy, but I’ve been the good guy my whole life. I’ve been listening and I know exactly what women want. Framed in a picture standing next to me, Troy may seem like Mr. Perfect, but he’s underestimating the guy on the right.

Spoiler alert: In this story, the underdog is going to win.

 

 

 

 

 

 

My Review…

Well Ms. Stewart, you have done it again! You have made me fall in love even more with you and your writing!

A true underdog story indeed!! I was cheering so hard for Theo and I absolutely floved both Theo and Lainey!

It’s usually a challenge for me to actually laugh out loud when reading a romantic comedy, but holy crow, I caught myself laughing out loud and actually crying with laughter at some points in this story! I knew Ms. Stewart could bring the angst and the heartbreak in her past stories but she really brought the humor and heart in this story!

Theo is a true renaissance man! He is what you need in a hero and more! I loved his vulnerability and I admired his honesty about it.

Lainey is a self described gpysy soul.  I loved her humor, her loyalty and her heart!  She too has her vulnerabilities and copes with them in the best way she knows how.

The slow burn in this story is off the charts hot and the whole premise of this story is so honest and so refreshing! A true original! The secondary characters bring even more to the story and I hope that Ms. Stewart isn’t done writing in this world she has created!

This is definitely in the running for one of my “Best Reads of 2019”. I laughed, I swooned and I fell in love hard with all the characters in this novel!  #livingyourrealistlife indeed!!
