Despite her outgoing demeanour, Olivia is painfully insecure around the opposite sex—usually, she can’t get up the nerve to approach guys she’s interested in. But moving to Edinburgh has given her a new start, and, after she develops a crush on a sexy postgrad, she decides it’s time to push past her fears and go after what she wants.
Nate Sawyer is a gorgeous player who never commits, but to his close friends, he’s as loyal as they come. So when Olivia turns to him with her relationship woes, he offers to instruct her in the art of flirting and to help her become more sexually confident.
The friendly education in seduction soon grows into an intense and hot romance. But then Nate’s past and commitment issues rear their ugly heads, and Olivia is left brokenhearted. When Nate realises he’s made the biggest mistake of his life, he will have to work harder than he ever has before to entice his best friend into falling back in love with him—or he may lose her forever….



I enjoyed this book it wasn't the best in the series by far but it was still enjoyable it had a different pace than the other books it was slower because of the friends to lovers trope. 

They are not perfect but they are for each other i think that's what i loved about these characters they acted like idiots at times when it came to things inside and outside their relationship and entered into things that they should have been cautious about (trying not to spoil then remember this info is in the synopsis). The set up for the next book was very good and had me pining for it. especially when all of the old characters make their own appearances. 

Olivia was a insecure gorgeous American who needed a confidence boost and she turned to her best friend for help, it also helps when said best friend is hot, I did feel sorry for her at times especially when we heard about her mother and everything her and Mick went through. Also Nate was a tosser at points even with his history he didn't need to treat Liv like that and say those things to her. But the ending made up for a lot so it did get higher marks for that.

I gave this book 4 stars because even though it wasn't the best in the series it definitely had the best couple i loved them and shipped them so much, it was enjoyable and i cannot wait to carry on with the series.

Until Next Time
Happy Reading
