Release Date: January 4, 2019
Synopsis:
“I didn’t reply. I couldn’t. Seeing this man’s naked private parts had not rendered me speechless but watching him lick ice cream off his finger had.” – June Tucker
June Tucker doesn’t understand people. Numbers, data, and statistics? Those make sense.
People? Not so much. In a town of Friday night fighters and moonshine-swilling line dancers, she’s the odd duck. And that suits her just fine. But her sister and friends are pairing off, and the change is unsettling.
George “GT” Thompson was at the top of his game—one of the best receivers in football. But a career-ending injury sidelined him for good. Now he’s hoping to find relief in the healing waters of this tiny West Virginia town. And maybe an idea of what life has in store for him next.
He doesn’t expect the no-nonsense girl at the hot spring, telling him he’s not supposed to be there. And pointing out his sizeable… equipment.
George is fascinated by June, with her head full of statistics and blunt honesty. He appreciates her in a way most others don’t. And when the local missing persons case takes a shocking turn, he’s by Scooby-June’s side as she digs for the truth.
He was her fantasy receiver. Now he’s her real-life boyfriend. But as their relationship heats up, June worries she’s not capable of the kind of intimacy he needs. He's convinced his campaign to get her out of her own head—to stop thinking and feel—will work. But his own crisis could drive them further apart.

5 stop-thinking-just-feel stars!!
Gah!! My favourite book of the series - and that's saying something since I adore this series!
"Something inside me didn't work right. I was weird. Everyone knew it. I wasn't built for human relationships."
June Tucker has always known she's different but her loved ones accept her for who she is. She's a genius with numbers and stats, and says what she thinks. She doesn't have a great track record when it comes to men but it's never really bothered her. However, when her favourite fantasy football player appears in her town, there's something about him that stirs some alien feelings in her - feelings that she struggles to deal with above a clinical level.
"She was probably the least flirtatious woman I'd ever met. So I had no idea why my dick was trying to cause a scene."
George Thompson thought June was beautiful. Aside from her beauty, there was also something arresting about her and her manner. During their first verbal exchange, he's hooked and intrigued by her. He realises that she's different but, instead of repelling him, it draws him in. The more time he spends with her, the more he wants her. However, he realises that he needs to tread softly.
"Judging by his incoming trajectory, it seemed the optimal angle would be...And then our mouths touched, and my mind went blank."
Oh, June! I adore her and I KNEW that her story would be flippin' wonderful! She's quirky, clever and wholly singular. She's funny without meaning to be (the first scene between her and George was hilarious!), socially awkward, and literal, but she has a heart of gold and a razor-sharp brain. I loved her reaction to George and her journey of sexual discovery.
"There was a lot more to June Tucker than one might see at first glance. And if she'd let me, I wanted to be the guy to uncover it."
George AKA GT is downright gorgeous and swoony as hell! I loved his way with June. I loved that he really saw the real her - the woman she was beneath her quirkiness. He was completely fascinated by her, and just wanted to understand her and learn about her. He made a couple of hiccups along the way, but he was so sweet and sexy with her (dance scene alert!!) that the two of them totally melted my heart. ADORED this book so much!!
