A serialized story from Sarina Bowen.
Get it here only.

There are 1016 people in the freshman class at Harkness College. I can’t be the only socially awkward nerd girl virgin among them. Right?
It’s time I learn to talk to guys without blushing and stammering. So I take a confidence-building job at the student tutoring center. Twelve bucks an hour, plus human interaction. What could go wrong?
A fun-loving French Canadian hockey hunk, that’s what.
When Pepe Gerault sits down at my tutoring table, my brain shuts off and my mouth goes right into hyperdrive. Even the sound of my name on his lips—Josephine—gives me a mini orgasm.
I want to hand him my V-card. But all I manage to hand him is…my thesaurus. And my dignity. All seems lost, until I hatch a plan to get him alone…

5 stars — OMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!  I’m not good at doing the serial thing (I have ZERO patience), so I waited until this one was complete to dive in, and then I gobbled it up in an evening.  IT WAS BOTH TOO SHORT AND PERFECT!!!

I LOVED Pepe and Josephine!!!  But especially Pepe!!  What a sweet, romantic soul!!  He really was like a man-puppy, just happiness and sunshine.  And Josephine was exactly like the heroine’s I fall in love with — insecure, shy, introverted, but sassy and smart and sweet too!  Watching them develop a relationship was just pure pleasure.  I giggled and smiled so hard my cheeks hurt.  It wasn’t without conflict, of course, but I just loved the way their whole romance played out, I was ridiculously satisfied.

Honestly, I don’t know what else to say, except it was everything I was hoping it was going to be and more.  Go quick and see if you can’t get a hold of the chapters before they disappear!  You won’t be disappointed!  I know I’ll be waiting impatiently for it to come in some format that I can buy and save to my Kindle.
