Stud by Kelly Siskind
5.0

This was a really fun book, with a lot of funny moments, as well as a few emotional scenes as well. I loved that each chapter's title was a word, with both its true definition, as well as a meaning that fit the upcoming situation. I could totally relate to the continuing to develop crushes on gay guys. I've done it. A few times. And one time I had a friend who didn't tell me the guy was gay, hoping I would actually get the nerve up to ask him out, so she could sit back and be amused. Fortunately, I guess, as always I was too chicken-shit to ask the guy out. I really liked Ainsley, she was a lot of fun. And Owen was very sexy, I mean into construction and played soccer and definitely was intelligent.

I like how not only did we have their romantic pasts to overcome in this story, but they had incidents they wanted or needed to find a way to fix somehow, or move past. And that only added to the characters and made you root for them even more. I will admit I kind of got a feel for where his ex-wife was getting her ammo before it was actually spelled out. Once I started reading I had trouble putting it down. I loved all the side characters, and definitely have to go back and read book one, Legs, and I look forward to more books in this series.
