Jesse has a best friend named Jocelyn, and Jocelyn is about the most beautiful woman a person could imagine. Jesse doesn’t mind, though. She’s okay with being the plain girl with the hot friend. She’s okay with a life of second place, and she’s happy to be free of all the drama that Jocelyn has to deal with all the time. When Sebastian shows up, though, he makes it pretty clear there isn’t anything about Jesse that he thinks is plain. 

So why won’t he sleep with her, for Pete’s sake? 

This contemporary romance has brief mature content and references to adult situations. 

Here is an excerpt for you: 

I was almost mute as we made our way there, and as he opened the door for me, I realized nobody had ever been particularly gentlemanly to me in a traditional way. I was bang material. I wasn’t girlfriend material. Hell, I was barely bang material, actually. I was more like available material. This was all new territory for me, and I didn’t know what to do.   

It was really weird to feel so damned out of my element and to simultaneously love it all. When he got into the driver’s side, he said, “Any allergies? There’s a great Italian place with the best clam and pancetta dish. Can you have shellfish?”   

“What’s your name?” 

“Sebastian, call me Bash. What’s yours?” 

“Jessie,” I said. “Call me Jess.”
