rude. Superior. One hole.

Without a doubt, Sebastian “Oz” Osborne is the university’s most popular student athlete – and possibly the biggest freeloader. A walker, cliché, he has a filthy mouth, a great body and doesn’t care what you or anyone else thinks.

Smart. Level. Careful.

Make no mistake, Jameson Clarke may be the college’s most diligent student – but she’s not the wise one. Spending most of his time in the library’s sacred halls, James is wary of perverts, pranks, and swindlers – and Oz Osborne is all three.

She’s smart, sarcastic – and not what he expected….

Every douchebag has its weak point.

He wants to be friends. He wants to spend time with her. He wanted to drive her crazy.

A good, funny, romantic story for the elderly and children! The author has made it very engaging for the reader. The storytellers are amazing!

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I bought this audiobook, but I often burst into laughter. This irreverent, fun, but somewhat sweet college romance is actually fun to listen to. The hero has a potty, but in a funny way. The heroine is a serious, educated and inexperienced girl, sometimes with a cruel sense of humour. He takes up a challenge from his friends and she enjoys it too, which makes him interested in her. He’s a flirt, but there’s something about her that always draws him to her. I love the story, the characters and the well done narration.

Great story with witty banter, funny characters, and some good steamy scenes – I loved this book! The perfect narration really did a great job bringing these characters to life. Highly recommended!

I’ve been waiting for this sound to feel like forever, okay, maybe just a month. But I’m happy because now I can listen to these dbags anytime I want. The story is amazing and the storytellers really brought these characters to life. I will listen to this song over and over.

The storyline is great. The storytellers are extraordinary. The conversation between the two characters is amazing. The author is new to me but now I feel compelled to listen to the other books in the series.
