Rebel Roommate by Jeannine Colette, Lauren Runow

5.0

Loved, loved, loved this new book in the Zodiac themed series. It was full of melty moments and good hearted fun that this writing duo has perfected.

Stacey and Wes jump off the page with their chemistry from the very beginning. Their history of growing up together, even though Wes was her brother's best friend, you could tell that Stacey and Wes shared a history together, one where their teasing and name calling tangled them into a relationship that could be messy, but also would be passionate once they gave into their desires.

While Wes and Stacey were wicked with their back and forth banter, they were even more so with their steamy passion. While Wes struggles between wanting Stacey and keeping his lifelong friendship with Chad in tact, their passion brews and bubbles, but kept in secret as neither want to upset the balance in the relationship with Stacey's brother.

Each book in this series is completely unique. The only similar features are keeping to the astronomical theme, which sets up what traits the hero will have and what has become my favorite part the chapter where the book is told from his POV. As the entire book is mainly told from the heroines POV, there is always a tipping point where we receive insight from the hero and in Rebel Roommate, Wes completely broke my heart. He feels he's broken beyond repair and in his musings I wanted to wrap that man up in a giant hug.

Jeannine and Lauren have perfected their craft as a writing duo and Rebel Roommate is not only steamy, but packed full of emotions, and excellent banter. It was a true pleasure to read.
