The Locker Room by Meghan Quinn
5.0

Okay, I love that the basic meet-cute book in this book is the author's favorite thing, a boob squeeze. I loved so much about this book! The main character Emory is a library/education major, that was me! And the lady she does her internship with sounds just like the lady I started my first library job with, who I nicknamed Maxine, like the comic character on Hallmark cards. This book had me laughing out loud so much! There were the gifts they sent each other over their Christmas break, and just the running gag of the bet of who gave in and asked to have sex first. But even them having to try to be strong to win the bet and not having sex still gave up some pretty sexy scenes! Now, the author did something towards the end of the book that totally reminded me a bit of another of her series last year, the Blue Line series. I won't give it away. You need to read this if you love sexy, funny NA sports rom-coms. Now, I feel like the whole locker room superstition came into play at a much different time than I'd expected due to what it is. But that's okay, it makes it so different than what you expect! I loved this, I don't know if I can say it enough. I also like how even though they had such a rough bit to go through to get together in the end, the way they dealt with those issues was so perfect. Pretty sure I want my own Knox Gentry. His snarky, sexy flirting comments make him someone I'd love to have to myself! He might be my latest book boyfriend.
