Review: The Roommate

The Roommate The Roommate by Rosie Danan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Clara Wheaton moves cross-country to spend the summer with her childhood crush, unfortunately he and his band are going on tour and instead she is forced to share the apartment with a random stranger from Craig's List. Said random stranger Josh is gorgeous, like male-model looks and a perfect body, then Clara finds out that he's a porn star (or adult film entertainer!). As a typical good-girl Clara has very limited experience with guys and (of course) has never managed an orgasm with a man, could Josh be the man to show her what she's been missing?

Josh loves his job but he's just split up with his on-screen co-star Naomi and the studio is pressuring him to move to films with stronger themes, he has to make the decision to go in a direction which he isn't happy with, or potentially torpedo his career.

This book is hard to categorise. It's a raunchy porn star teaches innocent to enjoy sex, mixed with a friends to lovers romance, mixed with an indictment of the adult entertainment industry and an empowering story of female friendship (and OMG how rare is that in Romancelandia?).

Overall, a fun, sexy romance with heart and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
