ARC REVIEW - #Pretty Boy D
Dane Golden—Best friend. Temptation in football cleats. Roommate?
I’m screwed.
His followers don’t call him Pretty Boy D for nothing. The guy is, literally, God’s gift to women. I should know. I’ve watched chicks throw themselves at him since puberty.
Sharing his loft should be simple. Easy. But shortly after I settle in, we realize being "just friends" was so much easier when we weren’t sleeping under the same roof.
Seven years of thinking we had this down to a science goes out the window the night Dane sees my “Never Have I Ever” list. Now, he’s on a mission to help me cross off the top four items. Some of which aren’t quite as innocent as he’d expect.
What he’s proposing will break the rules we agreed to when I first came to stay here. He wants me to give in, to let my guard down and face my feelings for once. At least, that’s what that wicked look in his eyes and the mounting heat between us suggests.
This isn’t how I imagined being roommates would go. But a girl can only stare temptation in its green eyes for so long and not weaken.
My best friend wants to have his way with me and, right or wrong… I think I might let him.
***
Pretty Boy D is a full-length standalone novel. This book can absolutely be read on its own, but when you’re done, it’s recommended that you check out more from the Golden triplets and Joss in the complete enemies-to-lovers trilogy, KINGS OF CYPRESS PREP.
Do you enjoy the frustratingly hot push and pull of a good friends-to-lovers or roommates-to-lovers romance? Then you’ll love getting to know Dane and Joss. Due to adult themes and sexual situations, this one’s only for the 18+ crowd. Expect an HEA and no trigger warnings needed.

Plot Summary :
Dane and Joss have known each other since their childhood . They were kids when they formed a bond of friendship and it's still going strong until now! Everyone expects them to end up together but that does not seem to be happening.
Not because they don't want each other but because there are a lot of issues to be overcome. When boss's life implodes and she has to come live with Dane, keeping those boundaries in check gets even more difficult. Things turn embarrassing when Dane finds her list of things she had to do yet in her life and he offers to help her cross them out. Not all those things in her list are innocent and now staying away from her best friend is impossible. Not when she had already fallen.
Dane fell for Joss when they were 12. However Joss has been keeping her distance so Dane never pursued her like that. But now he knows what she needs. The opportunity he has been waiting for years has finally come and he can't be more excited. There is no way he is letting her go now. Not when she was always meant to be his.
Overall Opinion :
I loved this contemporary romance so much! Dane and Joss had some crazy chemistry that had me feeling all their emotions and that was the best part for me.
The storyline of the book was amazing, although this one was a bit milder than the Golden boys trilogy by this author which is the story of West who is Dane's brother , but I loved this one nonetheless. The characters are amazing and that hint about Sterling's book just made me so happy.
I can't wait to read from this world snf can't wait for the other characters. Definitely recommending this one to all the contemporary best friends to lovers romance loving people out there!
