Can Will's promise to Alex be enough for her to hold on to, or will she find herself moving down a different path that she never imagined for herself?

Story
What happens when you’re forced to seduce the one person you vowed never to love? You get screwed...in more than one way. I walked out of Tucker Middleton’s bedroom seven years ago, leaving him hurt and angry. Now I need his help; the only way I can get it is to make him think I want him back. The only problem is we have silently vowed to hate one another for the rest of our lives. In order to get Tucker to help me - I have to seduce him. Easy right? Hell yes! I’m the CEO of CMI Consulting. If I set my mind to something, I make it happen.

Love at first sight. That’s what it was when Rip Myers came up to me in kindergarten. From that point on, we were inseparable best friends. When I work up the courage to tell Rip I love him, I am met with rejection. He tells me he treasures our friendship too much. That statement might as well be a knife to my heart. I want to hold out hope that he’ll change his mind. Instead, he moves on. The only choice I have is to pretend that doesn’t slay me.

It was a hot summer day when I met him on the construction site next to my parents' house. Under the sweat and dirt, Manning Sutter was as handsome as the sun was bright. He was older, darker, experienced. I wore a smiley-face t-shirt and had never even been kissed. I was too young, he said. I would wait. But I'd learn that no matter what you achieve in life, it means nothing if you suffer the heartbreak that comes with falling for someone you can never have. Because even though I saw Manning first, that didn't matter. My older sister saw him next.

Hockey with benefits. That was what Mara proposed, and I was down. She said no feelings, and she meant it. Just benefits. No strings attached. Nothing else. Not even friendship. College was her escape, including us. I didn't have time for a girlfriend. I had classes, the team, my family, and the game. It was all working too.... Until somewhere down the line, things got messy. Until somehow we were dealing with threats, secrets, rivals, and so much more. Until I began to want her in ways that weren't part of the deal. Our agreement didn't just get checked into the wall, it got obliterated.

4 Without me Star’s!
I loved this book here is why, the audio was awesome. I have listened to other Kelly Elliott’s audio and wasn’t a fan that being said I pushed through because I love her stories. But Stephen Dexter and Erin Mallon really brought this story to life without losing the story. Because there is a lot going on, and a lot of characters and I didn’t get lost in the story not once so big kudo’s to Stephen and Erin for not only delivering a great audio but being true to all the characters. So that’s on them for sure.
If you read or listened to the Wanted series by Kelly Elliott then you are going to die to get your hands on this series. It’s their kid’s people! Who doesn’t love a spin off series of your favorite characters?
So you don’t get confused from.
Book 1 of Wanted – Ellie and Gunner gave us Alex and Colt
Book 3 Faithful – Heather and Josh gave us Will and Libby
We do see the other kids from the other couples from the Wanted series but I am just going to focus on Will and Alex. Since their families are so close they grew up together.
Alex aka Lex has grown up watching Will grow up, since the age of 10 she knew she loved him and that he was the boy for her.
They started to date in their senior year of High School, Lex always knew what she wanted to do but her daddy as other plan’s and he won’t let her follow Will to college he wants her at UT and that is final.
She goes but she is not happy there and her dad keeps telling her to try new thing meet new people. Her head and heart get all confused.
Will wants Lex and has wanted her since he was just a boy as well. He doesn’t like the distance between them and they try really hard to be see each other as much as possible but college is harder than either of them expected. They have a lot of adjusting to do.
I have to say I love Lex’s brother Colt even though Will is his best friend and Lex is his sister he was still a man about them getting together he didn’t throw a hissy fit (like I expected him too). I loved this about him.
Like I said there are a lot of characters in this book you are going to see Libby, Will’s sister. You’re going to see brother, sister duo Luke and Grace. And you’re going to see all of their parents and the grandparents. So brace but like I said the narration on this book is outstanding!
Lex is listening to everyone else but herself and she finally has to put a stop to all the voice’s in her head and speak up for herself. This was a beautiful thing I tell you.
Funny scene was the log filled with scorpion’s omg I was crawling just listening to it. How Lex’s mother didn’t freak out is beyond me!! Ekk.
Sexy hot scene the river, I am telling you when you get to this you will be like hot dang that was a steamy, steamy scene. Then what follows after will have you chuckling host to god I speak the truth!
We do have to deal with some heavy issues with this book as well and it’s a warning really to anyone at a party do not take a drink from ANYONE you do not know or trust. But watching how Lex and Will handle anything that gets thrown at them and how they deal with it and can still come out stronger than ever I tell you it was a great read and listen.
I have one quote. I know only one!!
“Love always finds away baby.”

Young characters, but good
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
If they just want to be entertained.
Any additional comments?
The characters start so young, and they end at a very young 2 in college. If I did not like the story, I might not finish the series, but I will keep going just cause I was entertained.

Book for YOUNG adults
I was so disappointed in this book as I thought the characters would develop and grow slighter older (kinda like continuing with the story "8 years later..."). It was a bit... disturbing (not sure if that's the right word), to listen to a book where the characters are barely old enough to have sex. I think if you are in your early twenties you would love this book as it is written very well and the narrator is good.
