The banter in Getting Schooled completely cracked me up! And I loved that Jason isn’t your usual flawless Romance hero while Reese is my favorite kind of heroine: Smart and thoughtful, but also a little bit of a weirdo with an utterly unexpected streak (you’ll see when you get there).
The chemistry between Reese and Jason sure is off the charts! And Sean Crisden and Adenrele Ojo are two absolutely outstanding audiobook narrators!

Friends to Lovers Romance Audiobooks
The Friends to Lovers trope works very differently from the Enemies to Lovers trope since the protagonists already know each other, sometimes they are even childhood friends.
While the animosity of enemies makes it easier to create chemistry and passion, friends to lovers books are so wonderful because they often feel much more romantic. The protagonists are pining for each other, they love spending time together but are worried taking it further might destroy the friendship.
