“Oh my god. Who is that?”
I get asked this question a lot.
“Oh him?” I reply. “That’s just Ian.”
Just Ian is the biggest understatement of the century.
Just the Mona Lisa. Just the Taj Mahal. Just Ian, with his boring ol’ washboard abs and dime-a-dozen dimpled smile.
Just Ian is… just my best friend.
We’re extremely close, stuck so deep inside a Jim-and-Pam-style friendzone everyone at works assumes we’re a couple – that is until one day, word spreads through the teacher’s lounge that he’s single. Fair game. Suddenly, it’s open season on Ian.
He should be reveling in all the newfound attention, but to our mutual surprise, the only attention he seems to want is mine.
He’s turning our formerly innocent nightly chats into x-rated phone calls. Our playful banter sports a new, dangerous edge.
I want to assume he’s playing a prank on me, just pushing my buttons like always – but when Ian lifts me onto the desk in my classroom and slides his hands up my skirt, he doesn’t leave a lot of room for confusion.
I’m a little scared of things going south, of losing my best friend because I can’t keep my hands to myself. So, I’m just going to back away and not return this earth-shattering kiss – oh who am I kidding?!
Goodbye Ian, ol’ buddy, ol’ pal!
Helloooo mister not so nice guy.
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
I hate to admit this, but Not So Nice Guy and I just didn’t click on the level I wanted us too. It was a good, funny book, it did make swoon, but it was just missing this oomph, you know??
Now that I have admitted that let tell you, Sam and Ian were adorable together! Even when they were ‘just friends’. The connection between the two is undeniable, so much so that the all of the teachers at the school assumed they were together.
Not So Nice Guy is a dual POV story told by Sam and Ian, and what I loved from the beginning was getting inside of their heads and seeing how differently each of them saw the exact same situation. It was miscommunication and misinterpretations galore and it made the story hilarious.
The antics between the two were so funny and mean in the sweetest way, if you haven’t read this you make not get it, but it’s really the only way to describe it. I loved watching jealousy finally push them out of the friend zone.
