BLUE BALLS Kindle Edition

by RC Boldt (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 322 ratings
USA Today bestselling author of CLAM JAM brings us yet another laugh-out-loud romantic comedy about two people who experience "setbacks" at the most inopportune times...

What happens when the universe gets in the way of your "follow through"?
BLUE BALLS
Truth: A painful condition caused by a prolonged state of sexual arousal without release.
Myth: Only affects males.

SARAH
I’m beyond frustrated with the man who’s left me high and very far from dry. Multiple times. But, somehow, even though I’m not interested in a relationship, Mr. Tall-Dark-and-Handsome keeps me coming back for more—one crazy, sexual debacle after the next.
Come hell or high water, the stars will align, and the release will be out of this world.

JACK
I’m captivated with the woman who’s left me sixty-nine shades of blue, and she's only in this for one thing. The first time, I blew it—and not in the good way—but I’m going to ensure we finally see it through. I need to put an end to this “plague” of sexual calamities and prove to Sarah that we can have more. It's time to grab the universe by the balls and show it who's boss.
It's time to grab the universe by the balls and show it who's boss.

TROPES:
Boy falls first
Orphan Found Family
Close Proximity
Will they or won't they?

    5.0 out of 5 stars LOVED this book!
    Reviewed in Australia on 8 August 2017
    What a freaking hilarious read! I enjoyed every moment of this book and could not put it down. I laughed until I had tears in my eyes. The situations these two found themselves in were down right horrible and oh so funny. I had to put my Kindle down several times and yell for my husband to read parts.

    This book follows Sarah and Jack and I just wanted to shake Sarah at times!! I just wanted her to open her eyes and see what exactly was in front of her but I did understand her issues. I fell in love with Jack from the beginning. He was so easy to love.

    I did not read Clam Jam so I came into this story with no expectations. It is easy to read without having read the other book. I do want to go back and read it though because I have to see the story about “cupcake".

    R.C. Boldt is becoming a go to author for me to read. I highly recommend this book; hell, I recommend ALL of her books. The writing was spot on, the storyline flowed and was something I hadn’t read before. It’s such a fun, flirty, sexy and sweet read. Go one click now!

    BLUE BALLS: A painful condition caused by a prolonged state of sexual arousal without release.
    MYTH: Only affects males.

    Straight off the bat you know this is going to be one crazy read. Not only because of the title which is brilliant by the way, but because it starts in Sarah's head with her insane inner dialogue. Why is blue balls such a brilliant name for this book? Because by the end of it you'll be suffering from them hehe.

    Sarah is fresh out of nursing school ready for what life will throw at her anything that is except a relationship, she is determined to avoid one of those at all cost.

    Sarah is of the charts funny and a little crazy, she is a nympho that seems to be constantly thinking about sex especially when it comes to Jack. These two just can't seem to get it together, every time they get close to the good stuff something crazy happens. Don't get me wrong I found all the 'crazy' things really funny but it did get frustrating.
    I loved the prank Sarah with Jack's phone, changing out the words like that. Not sure how you do that or if you can but it was so funny. Speaking of Jack he, he grew up as a pocket protector nerd until he meeting Ry, Sarah's best friends fiance in college who helped transform him into the sexy cool guy he is now. Jack is super sweet and you can see the poor guy is so smitten with Sarah but is also scared. I wouldn't say no to a guy that looked like Jack and bought me a pair of Jimmy Choo's and matching clutch because he said I deserved them for working so hard!!! (swoon).

    If you are looking for a book that is all fun and may test your frustration levels at times then this is it. WARNING: Don't read this in public or you'll look like a tool laughing to yourself like I did ;)

    4.0 out of 5 stars A great laugh
    Reviewed in Australia on 8 August 2017
    A seriously funny romcom that will have you rolling on the floor laughing. I loved the humour, the chemistry between the characters and the plot in general. This book can be read as a standalone but it does follow Clam Jam, I need to go back and read it.

    Sarah had wanted Jack for a long time, now he's single she pulls out all stop to get what she wants. She is anti love anti relationships, he is ready to settle down. Their chemistry is off the charts they just can't get the dead done. As the title would lead you to think, most of the story is about not finishing.

    4.0 out of 5 stars You won’t be able to stop laughing!
    Reviewed in Australia on 29 August 2017
    This book was told from a dual POV and while Sarah's was more crazy and hilarious, Jack's was more easygoing and level-headed.

    I seriously loved the funny banter and messages between Sarah and Jack, which had me constantly smiling or laughing. There wasn't any 'in between' as there was always something happening (or Sarah embarrassing herself) and my laugh muscles never got a break to relax. Working out had never been so fun. =P

    The characters had such bad luck; I was surprised at how often they had been interrupted. It was like everything that could possibly go wrong happened to them. I almost felt bad for them especially because it nearly got me blue balls as well while cheering them on to get it finally done just to be left high and dry yet again or rather drenched and on the brink of getting the long longed for release, just to have it snatched away from them seconds before.

    The Story:
    There had been some chemistry between Jack and Sarah since the first time they've met and it doesn't take long for them to act out on it. But it seems that the odds aren't in their favor as they give each other nothing more than blue balls. No matter how often they went at it, something always interrupted them. Maybe the universe is against them? But what when feelings get into the mix? Can they overcome their bad luck and finally rid themselves of the painful BB? Or is there just no way out and the best way would be to move on?

    Thoughts:
    To be honest, this book was so hard to rate. I tried to think during the read about how much I liked it but even now after I finished it, I couldn't really decide. I also tried to compare it to the author's other books but then thought it wouldn't be fair because this was too different and uniquely written.
    I really liked the writing because it was refreshing and fun, although it probably isn't everybody’s taste. (If you read an excerpt of this book or have read the book already, you will know what I mean regarding Sarah's inner voice.)

    The chocolate messages were a nice addition especially because Maggie and Ry had their napkins and I loved that our new couple also had something special. I think that it mixed well with the funny side in the book because the chocolate added something different and more sentimental which grew throughout the story.

    It made me happy that Maggie and Ry were in this book as well because I adored their story and I felt that this book had a nice ending for both couples.

    (Ok, the only thing that I'd have liked to see more of would've been of the emotional kind. I get that Sarah was scared because of how her parents parted and what her mother did but the characters spent so much time together and the main focus of the story was the fun side - which I understand and also liked because it obviously was a RomCom - but I just wished to see more of their feelings growing.)

    Oh my what can I say about Blue Balls??
    Firstly I have never had a fit of giggles like I did on the first page and getting rudely told by a snoring hubby to shush. But anyway the rest of this book didn’t fail.

    We first met Sarah and Jack in Clam Jam with Maggie and Ryan. But now Blue Balls has all the laughter and more I mean how many times did Jack and Sarah get close?? I was like come on give the guy some slack and I admit I did feel kinda sorry for Jack at times. And the conversations with Sarah and herself oh geez some of the things said. 😂😂😂😂

    Ms Boldt has not failed with this book and you will love it. I know I did but please read Clam Jam first to get the back story.

    Poor Jack. The man has NO game whatsoever. He thinks he knows what women want, but the follow through is sooo bad. He was a card carrying member of the nerd pack before he met Ry and he helped transform him into the guy he is now...which is the Hot guy!! He's such a likeable guy that you really can't help wanting to smack Sarah throughout the whole book. She's stubborn and kind of a nymphomaniac. Her inner dialogue is about sex, her musings are about sex and she talks about sex. Jack wants a relationship and Sarah just wants to have fun. What ensues are situations that are both funny and emotional. Emotional because you get to see how Jack was when he was younger and funny because I will never look at a nuns habit in quite the same way. The author states at the beginning of the book that the things that happen in the book are things that have happened to her friends in real life which made it for me - hilarious! How many times have we been about to do something and been interrupted by a bunch of nuns who are stalking us? Oh, is that just me? No? If you want to read a book and laugh through the whole thing, wake your family up repeatedly until they're throwing stuff at you and calling your best friend to tell her you're buying her this book when it comes out. I have come to love RC's style and humor and this book is no exception

    I can't take it! The text messages between Jack and Sarah - Blue Balls - just PRICELESS!!! Every moment with them was like FATE saying nope not happening tonight let's try this instead.

    Then Sarah and her F'in inner dialogue. I could vividly picture her in her head with her arms flaying around and cocking her head from side to the side being all dramatic. Just HILLARIOUS!!!! Seriously I just can't.

    R.C. Boldt, I was totally 100% obsessed with this book and it was just what I needed every night after a stressful day at work. If I could give it more then 5 Stars I would. I thought I loved Jack and Sarah in Clam Jam but I think I truly fell in love with them in Blue Balls.

    I loved this book to pieces...just one-click it. You won't be disappointed- come in now the book is about BLUE BALLS.

    Sarah and Jacks story follows on from Clam Jam where you initially meet them. I thought Maggie and Ry's story was brilliant but Blue Balls is off the scales. Sarah and Jacks antics make for hilarious reading and the poor nun who keeps bumping into Sarah has really bad timing. This is one book that you will always go back to read this I can guarantee as it has everything you could ask for in a Rom Com.
