Release Date: June 4, 2018


Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills and USA Today bestselling author Tia Louise are back with an all-new romantic comedy filled with Southern sass and steamy scenes that will have you laughing out loud and fanning yourself. Pour the sweet tea and get ready…

“The best way to get over your sh**ty ex-fiancĂ© is to get under a shiny new stud…”

As soon as Mr. Tall, Blond, and Handsome walks into that bar, I know he’s the hook-up I need to get over stupid Cheater Kyle.

A few stolen kisses in a dark hallway, and I’m pretty sure we’re headed for a home run—until he disappears without a trace.

Whatever. Men are all snakes in the grass, and I don’t need a new one anyway.

I resolve to forget about his perfect lips (and chest of steel) and instead focus on turning my Granny’s old beach house into a profitable B&B.

What I don’t expect is for him to show up the next day in my kitchen!

You see, my sexy mystery man is none other than Jax Roland, the drop-dead gorgeous home improvement star of The Right Stud, and he’s got an offer I can’t refuse.

With a suitcase in one hand and a hammer in the other, he wants to move in and renovate my old house while he films his new show.

But my roommate has secrets, and they threaten to rip our blossoming friendship—and possible love—apart.

When push comes to shove, is Jax really The Right Stud or is he just another nail in the coffin of love?








I have to say that I really enjoyed this book! It made me laugh, an kept me glued to my kindle. There was just enough drama and conflict to keep things interesting without being over the top.

I have to say that I absolutely loved Jax. He was amazing. He definitely lived up to his show’s name, Stud. I loved that he was instantly drawn to Ashton and that he couldn’t resist helping her. Even when he knew that it would be more profitable for her to sell the B&B/the land, he set out to help her fix the place up.

Ashton was pretty awesome. She was strong and knew what she wanted, and she wasn’t going to let her jerk brother push her around. Speaking of her brother…I loathed him. I wanted to push him into the ocean. I sincerely hope he doesn’t get a book with Ashton’s bff Lulu because he doesn’t deserve a HEA. And Lulu deserves better than him.

While I enjoyed the scenes with Mrs. C & Rufus, I couldn’t help but think that some of the things coming out of Mrs. C’s mouth weren’t…well…something she’d really say. Rather, someone her age. I could be totally wrong but I kept picturing my grandmother and couldn’t imaging her saying some of those things. Rufus was definitely funny and had some colorful phrases. I wouldn’t mind learning more about his life and how he learned those things.

I wasn’t quite as enamored with Jean Claud van Ram as my reviewing partner was. He was ok, but I found him more irritating than anything else. Stupid goat.

While part of me wishes that this book had been longer (because it was so enjoyable) I’m also grateful that it wasn’t because then there might have been unnecessary drama that the characters just didn’t need. 


I really enjoyed this book! It had all the elements I love. Humor, sweetness, steamy bits, not too much drama but enough to have a conflict that needed to be resolved, and of course a great hea. They writing from these two authors was fabulous and I ended up reading this book in one sitting. I was hooked from page one. I loved all the characters, even the non-human ones.

Ashton: She'd been through some tough times but still reminded determined to accomplish her girls if restoring her granny’s b&b. She didn't even let her brothers determination to sell get in her way. She was see, sassy and I reply liked her!

Jax:  His moniker readily suited him.. He was studly, sweet and also stubborn. He ended to help Ashton restore her home even though it wasn't as profitable as selling. He made mistakes but they weren't so bad that he didn't deserve to get the girl. He totally did and I loved him and Ashton together

Ben: total jerk brother and I wanted to punch him. I'm glad he came around in the end though.

Lulu: crazy bff who had wanting to meet her I tell life! She was silly an bff a great secondary character!

Mrs. C: a crazy old coot of a lady that had me cracking up at pretty much everything that came out of her mouth! And her bird...

Rufus: that crazy bird was outrageous! I'm not sure I'd want to know how he learned some of the phrases he squawked about lol

Jean Claud van Ram: he wasn't in every scene, but this goat was definitely a scene stealer whenever he was around!

Overall, this was a quick read but it had everything to make it a great one. I like these two authors collaborating together. The definitely mesh well and this is another book from them I've enjoyed!
