Nikki Stone has writer's block. As a romance author, this isn't the first time, but after her book gets shredded for sex scenes written like “someone who's never had sex before" she's stuck. The problem? She’s a demisexual woman who has never had sex. The solution? Listen to the advice that she just needs to get laid. But after trying and failing on her own, Nikki turns to the one person she trusts can help her get some hands-on her friend and roommate James. James Warren is perfectly happy with his life. He enjoys being an assistant manager/bartender at The Sleepy Siren, having casual hookups with people he isn’t attracted to as a demisexual man, and living with his three closest friends. He definitely doesn’t have any desire for something more. And he’s definitely not in love with NIkki Stone. Even if he can’t stop thinking about her–their shared caffeine addiction, her magpie tendencies, and definitely not her massive brain.But when Nikki realizes he might have the perfect expertise to be her sexy mentor and asks him for help–telling him she’ll ask someone else if he says no–what can he do but say yes? With time ticking towards her deadline–and her publisher’s last extension coming to an end–it’s now or never. As the two of them explore each other’s bodies during their spicy lessons, while trying to keep their hearts out of it, they’ll realize that maybe there was more to their friendship all along.
