Sex Says Kindle Edition

What happens when the one guy you want to avoid the most, is unavoidable?

Let me, Lola Sexton, be the first to tell you…it sucks.

As the writer behind Sex Says, a successful relationship column at the San Francisco Times, I’m a pro at advising others on their love lives. Unfortunately, I don’t have quite as good a handle on my own.

It’s for the best, though, when the prospects act like Reed freaking Luca.

Reed is a wanderer and a jack of all trades, and he doesn’t believe happiness comes from a nine to five job, or that success is delivered through a paycheck.
You’d think a guy like that wouldn’t end up in a career that’s a problem for me, but opportunity often finds its way to those who aren’t looking.

When Reed is hired by a rival newspaper to write an anti-Sex Says relationship column, the result is all out war.

I hate Reed. Really, I do.
It’s just too bad the gorgeous guy is so darn likable.

Trust is like paper; once it’s crumpled, it can’t go back to the way it was. It’s forever changed—forever imperfect.

“I want to find someone to spend my life with, just not in the traditional sense like marriage. I want someone who wants to be committed to me. Someone who wants to be loyal to me. Not out of obligation, but because they want to be. Because they love me so much that they don’t want to be with anyone else.”

A silly romance novel between 2 San Francisco independent people. Well done as always with Max Monroe humor and crazy ideas. 🚲 and 🛼 to name a couple. Oh and yes I got permission from the US President to write this review. 😊

Unique and Wonderful!!! Read it!

Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2017

This was another great romcom from Max Monroe! Hilarious, steamy and sweetly unconventional, Sex Says was a treat to read. A story of two very unique people who start out (in Lola’s case) as enemies, and after some serious persistence from Reed, fall in love. Reed and Lola were wonderfully interesting and carefree in their individual perspectives on life, love, and sex. I really felt like I was reading something that had been made into a movie at some point, it was that great! The plot was engaging and well developed. At times I thought their inner monologues were a little long winded, but they were both writers so it makes sense.

Reed, a sort of man child, was such a unique hero. A compulsive liar, manipulator, didn’t stick with the same odd job for more than a few weeks, prankster, and at the same time, funny, charming, easy going, “good with money”, genuine, and of course crazy gorgeous. He was full of contradictions and yet very comfortable with going with the flow of life as he saw fit. In short, he was extremely likable.

Lola was just incredible. I absolutely LOVE heroines that are quirky, sort of weird (or in Lola’s case, very weird), and are absolutely unapologetic about it. She took a roller skating class with seven year old’s, and a palm reading class just so she could manipulate Reed into doing things she wanted. Hilarious. I loved her interactions with Reed, but also just with everyone. Everyone she came across couldn’t help but love her.

If you are a fan of romcom’s than you really need to read Sex Says, by Max Monroe. No OW/OM drama. There was a fair amount of angst in the first half of the book when Reed and Lola are still enemies, but it gets really sweet and steamy after that. Happy reading!

HEA, duel POV, no cheating, no triggers.

Reed This: Sex Says is fantastic

Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2017

Verified Purchase

We already know that Max Monroe write fantastic romance novels. Their Billionaire Bad Boys series is an all-time favorite of mine, and I love the way that their characters seem to feel so real. I'm always left wanting to be friends with these fictional people.

With Sex Says, the duo move away from their franchise and introduce new characters, a new location, and new conflicts. And it is FANTASTIC.

Lola writes a romance column for a San Francisco newspaper, always offering (somewhat heavy-handed) advice to the love - or sex - lorn. Reed, a guy whose idea of a steady job is one that lasts three weeks, happens to read one of her articles and responds via a YouTube video. Before you can say, "Gone viral," Reed has been hired to fire off his opposing point of view for each of Lola's columns.

Lola decides she hates him, but Reed decides he likes Lola a LOT.

Yeah, the premise feels predictable with its shades of You've Got Mail. But Max Monroe make it feel fresh and new, and that's largely because of Reed. He is a Hot Hero who zigs when you think he will zag. As he puts it, he does not like to do what others expect. This, of course, frustrates Lola to no end, and watching her try to outwit him is hilarious. After the three strong, memorable heroines from the Billionaire Bad Boys series, it's fun to meet Lola. She undoubtedly would fit in well with Georgia, Cassie, and Winnie, but she is decidedly her own person. She is so resolutely independent that she cannot believe that she will ever deign to get married. Who needs that official piece of paper when what really counts is how you feel?

Max Monroe make you think that Lola will be the linchpin of this relationship, but it turns out that that responsibility falls to Reed, the guy who eschews permanence with vigorous determination. He has spent over 30 years moving from one interest to another, convincing himself that life is a series of adventures to enjoy. And he's right, to some extent. What he didn't factor in was enjoying those experiences with someone by his side.

One thing I particularly enjoyed: both Reed and Lola have loving, supportive families. There is no Big Trauma in their backgrounds to keep them from each other, no Emotional Torment that impedes their relationship. Instead, their decisions to be together or not are based solely on their own thoughts and feelings, and that, faithful readers, is a lovely thing indeed.

Come meet Reed and Lola, and experience this next step of Max Monroe's writing. It's pretty fantastic.

Well Read Nana 1/24

Just a bit of a off read for me , not as much fun as these authors previous reads

Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2017

I felt like I was missing something from this read or I was waiting for the big reveal about what was Reed's real deal. At first I thought he was a con artist, a ex con , a magician, someone who might be a tad bit unusual and I was just waiting and excited to find out what Reed was all about, there was intrigue, like the author was preparing and was going to explain something about him ,like maybe his mom dropped him on his head or something like that but that never came to be,which kind of hurt the storyline for me personally . I guess the whole story felt to me that Reed was a unusual character and that I couldn't figure out all his ways , he was likable , yet I only seemed to know half of his personality. It was just a quirky kind of read because of Reed and Lola 's personalities,Reed seemed mysterious in his thoughts and actions ,like the authors purposesly wanted that suspense for his character and that you needed to wait to understand him and that to me was never delievered.I understood all the other characters ,Lola's family ,her friends ,boss, nieces and nephew, even Reed's family was familiar I just really didn't get Reed 's deal.Just not as connected as I hoped for with them, just a bit disconnected about the whole story , don't get me wrong it had some quirky fun parts but then it had some weird moments that I didn't get, for example why would Lola hate to be called skeets???, palm reading classes ? pig tails at age 32, is she Chrissy Snow ???? what did she look like , besides a eccentric dresser ??Just a off read ,I can go on and on about questions that that left me wondering why ,maybe it was just me but it was just ok storyline for me ,quirky ,not as much fun as the past reads.I mean come on Max Monroe you taught us all never eat anyone's food from the office refrigerator, because that is just so damn wrong , what did this book teach us 😉

Sex Says - Reed this book :)

Reviewed in Canada on February 23, 2017

I've been waiting for this book, and as soon as it arrived on my Kindle I read it - AND IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT!

Loved it - loved Lola, loved that she was eclectic, and owned it. Loved Reed, he was smart, he noticed Lola right away, and went for it.

I would like to see more of these characters, to see if they get married, and actually have kids, and how that goes over.

I was really invested in their lives, which shows you what a great story it was.

Loved this book, love these authors.

After reading the Billionaire Bad Boys Series I was looking forward to this book. I can honestly say I was not disappointed. The two characters Lola and Reed are so far apart from each other but when they get together they are sexy, funny and emotional. I brilliant stand alone book which had me hooked from the start. Can't wait for future books from Max Monroe

I absolutely adore this book. I have fallen in love with Reed's character and am in awe of Lola's fierceness. So much depth and insight - I think I'll be reading this one again and again
