Publisher's summary

Lola Sexton is the writer behind Sex Says, a successful relationship column at the San Francisco Times. She's a pro at advising others on their love lives, but if there's one thing she isn't in the market for, it's love. Reed Luca is a wanderer and a jack of all trades. He doesn't believe happiness comes from a nine-to-five job, or that success is delivered through a paycheck. But opportunity often finds its way to those who aren't looking. When Reed signs up to write an anti-Sex Says relationship column, the result is all-out war.

Can't Get Enough

Max Monroe as another delightfully written audiobook.
When Reed makes a video of himself giving a tart response to Lila of her Sex Says newspaper column she explodes.. especially when she finds he as already received over 300,000 views... in one day!
She hates him.
He has yet to meet her....
Enjoy watching the sparks fly.

Not sure why this is rated red hot. . .

I must have slept through the red hot parts. This is more seductive at best. There wasn’t a lot of sex period.

The story was good. I enjoyed the banter but the lead female got on my nerves quite a bit. She was so hateful to him at times. It seems like he grew and changed a lot more than she did and I think she should have given him a bit of a break. The thing I liked the least was his hot to cold in two seconds after he saw his friend. How do you ‘stalk” someone and obsess over them and then go as cold as ice? That just didn’t seem like him, even if he had lost everything.

The narration was good; I prefer a male narrator or at least dual narration.

I think if the book had not been rated red hot and I had not expected something else, I would have enjoyed it more.

Worth a listen on audible escape.

Max Monroe is by far my favorite author.

I look forward to each book and cannot wait for more!! I always find myself laughing out loud.

Sex Says

This book has been on my TBR list since 2017 for what ever reason I just never picked it up but while scrolling through Audible Escape I saw who the narrators are and I love both so I thought lets give this one a chance.

I am glad I did even if I wasn’t a fan of our hero. Liar’s even well intended/white lies turn me off. I just can’t wrap my head around why someone would do it and do it as much as Reed does.

Lola really was the star for me her whimsical ways intrigued me maybe because I am more like her sister character. The fact that Lola just goes with the flow and does what she needs or wants to. I just really liked that she has her opinions and that is that. If you don’t agree ok but she is still right. Lol

Over all the book was fun and interesting and kept me interested even if I didn’t like Reed until the end. ;)

Again the narration was awesome and made these character leap from the pages.

He said she said

This enemies to lovers pairs two of the quirkiest characters. I didn't connect with this story as much as I have other series by this duo but it definitely had me laughing.

Good angst-free read

Overall, I think I really liked the concept of this book. It dabbled with THE Rivals to lovers trope, which I absolutely LURVE and had a super interesting heroine that wasn't a heroine I was used to reading. A big plus for me. Even Reed was really sexy and confident at times and I loved the banter between them a lot. However, sometimes I thought the hero was too aloof for me. He was so obsessed with doing the unexpected that it really hurt how I saw him as a character. The heroine was more than he deserved at times, putting up with him not being able to keep a job and even helping him get a job, which c'mon ladies, is going above and beyond.

I could have easily given this book a 5 had it not had been for some ableist and transphobic comments sprinkled in there that I wasn't prepared for. Otherwise, it was a light and angst-free romance if angst isn't for you. For the 2 days I spent on it, I was entertained. The narrators were great!

cuite

i love this.. ots like a i didnt want to like u romance and in my opinion it was just rally cuite i will re read i wish there was more like it.

RomCom

This book has everything a RomCom needs, LOL moments and lots of them, a romance story, a quirky h and a smirking and sarcastic H.

Hilarious

This is one book that let me laughing. Max Monroe have out done themselves with this book. I was sad that the book ended. Read it!!

Sex, please!

I have to laugh because these characters are absolutely perfect in their own ways. Quirky and fun, Lola Sexton is my spirit animal. Reed Luca, however, is sex personified with an contradictory opinion of everything.

The combustible chemistry and lit match take these two to a whole new level of burning. It's hot and tense but also an absolute blast. The ridiculousness is smile inducing even as I type this.

Sex Says but you need to Reed This to understand- this hate to lovers book is everything you want in a rivalry and a romance. Right, wrong, or palm reading...you will love it all!
