Stud in the Stacks (The Girl Band Book 2) Kindle Edition

by Pippa Grant (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 6,653 ratings
"Steamy, sexy, and laugh out loud funny." ~ 5 Stars, Smut Book Junkie Book Reviews

He's a librarian by day and the ideal fake boyfriend by night.

When it comes to women, I know what they want. And all day long, I give it to them. Dark, broody, and sexy? You got it. Need to laugh? I’m your guy. Desperate for something to put you in the mood? You’ve come to the right place, kitten.

Every morning when my library opens, there’s a line around the block, the ladies flocking to me in need of their next book boyfriend. I’m that dude. The one who knows his way around the romance section.

And after years of study, my skills don't stop at the day job. Need a fake boyfriend, fiancé, or friend-with-benefits? I know that plot. I also know to keep my heart off the table, because love is only real between the pages of a book.

So when Parker Elliott needs a temporary fake boyfriend for a reunion, of course I step in. She rocks a mean guitar, she has no idea how attractive she is, and we have something of a history.

Easy, right?

Yep. Piece of cake.

Except this time, I'm actually in danger of falling in love.

Stud in the Stacks is 55,000 sexy, hilarious, sometimes embarrassing words, complete with tacos, romance novel love, unicorn parties, and no cheating or cliffhangers.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Pippa Grant wanted to write books, so she did.

Before she became a USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling romantic comedy author, she was a young military spouse who got into writing as self-therapy. That happened around the time she discovered reading romance novels, and the two eventually merged into a career. Today, she has more than 30 knee-slapping Pippa Grant titles and nine published under the name Jamie Farrell.

When she’s not writing romantic comedies, she’s fumbling through being a mom, wife, and mountain woman, and sometimes tries to find hobbies. Her crowning achievement? Having impeccable timing for telling stories that will make people snort beverages out of their noses. Consider yourself warned.

    I found this book very entertaining and the author has a great writing style that is really pulling me in, so much so, that i am going to have to read the next book in the series and the next lol.

    I loved that Know is a Romance reader and a librarian, be still my beating hormones. Just having a man that reads would be nice for me lol, my husband does not read books at all to my horror.

    I liked Parker and yes, she did have issues, but i did find her endearing. I also loved how she got her mojo back with Knox helping her to feel better about herself and shoring up her self worth.

    I liked that we got to see prevue characters in this book too and look forward to seeing how the rest of the characters lives play out.

    Hilariously funny!

    Mr Romantic is the romance blogger all the women swoon over, especially when he has abs for days and acts like every fictional man written by a woman. Knox is barely making ends meet while working in a library and living with his Gran and he never thought he would find himself in his next fake relationship with his ex-babysitter. Who bid on him while he was dressed as Tarzan at a charity event and lost.

    Parker never knew Tarzan was a goofy boy she used to babysit when trying to bag a fake fiance for her school reunion. All she knew was that she needed a quick fix and this was the last resort. She never thought he would actually get in touch after she threw her number at him while walking away with her tail between her legs after losing out on the bidding war.

    Knox and Parker are super funny together and Knox is helping Parker learn many new things even though she is the older and more mature partner in the relationship. There were lots of jungle references especially when it came to Tarzan and Jane which kept ewwing me out when used too much. Overall I laughed way too much and swooned for Knox's ability to put book boyfriend moves into practice.

    Pippa Grant is one of my absolute favorite authors. She brings her characters to life and gives them substance. Always well written and so so easy to read!
    Parker and Knox are perfect, sweet and so much fun to get to know! If you're into honesty, some very possible real life issues with fun ways to get over them and HEAs, then read this book and all her other books too! It'll make you laugh, cry, swoon and all the other feels! Xoxo

    Absolutely hilarious, especially the talented autocorrect feature on Parker's phone. This romo-com is so worth the read for the phone alone, but the chemistry between Knox anx Parker is amazing. The fact a male advocates for romance novels and is the sexy librarian brings the heat and the character growth is just perfect. Pippa Grant sure knows how to write everythkng just perfectly x

    Reviewed in the United States on 17 April 2018

    This author has kept me awake reading into the wee hours of the morning far too many times. And there’s no trying to read quietly in bed while hubby sleeps beside me. Reading a Pippa Grant book is anything but a quiet experience. I dare you to read her work and not laugh out loud several times. It’s a physical impossibility. Like touching your tongue to your elbow, it cannot be done. And this book is full of zany hilarity, from absurdly racy and outrageous autocorrected texts to a slapstick scene of the heroine with an unfortunate habit of misreading restroom signs and her uncontrolled babbling, there is an abundance of side-splitting scenes.

    This is an author who clearly doesn’t take things too seriously. In case the fake fiancé trope isn’t enough, she tosses in a hot librarian, bachelor auction, and even a babysitter trope to top things off. Her book titles are clearly tongue-in-cheek, and (dare I say it?) seem to poke fun at those serious alpha, virgin, billionaire, yada yada, titles that have quickly grown tiresome. These things, alone, would attract me to Ms. Grant's work, but after reading just one book, I had to read them all. Call it compulsion, addiction or obsession, I can’t get enough! Her work is like that first warm day of spring after a wet, frigid winter, or the beautiful rainbow after a violent thunderstorm – unique, refreshing, and delightfully surprising.

    This one has a little of everything, starting with Knox, a sexy Mr. Romance blogger/librarian with a hero complex, and Parker, the nerdy girl who grew up smart and beautiful but has yet to realize the beautiful part. First of all, how can you not fall for a guy who knows and loves romance novels? And when the nerdy girl gets the chance to face down all the mean girls and bullying jocks at the high school reunion? Epic. Add in Parker’s gal pals, the puck brother giants, Zeus and Ares, Parker's four huge, overprotective brothers, and Mr. Romance's nana who never met a subtle word and it’s good times all around. Really, though, there’s so much more to this book.

    Yes, there’s a lot of endorphin-producing laughter, but there are plenty of hot times and enough heart to make the puck brothers look toddler-size in comparison. Not only the emotion in the relationship between Knox and Parker, as well as relationships with secondary characters, but the heart that is truly, well, the heart of the romance genre. Mr. Romance says it best, that romance novels “are really about humanity’s hope and struggles and triumphs” and encourage readers to be better people and do more “volunteering, donating to good causes, and raising the next generation of men and women” to also be better people. The strong message of this book is that romance novels are nothing to be ashamed of reading, but their human elements of humor, sensuality and emotion should be shared and celebrated. This one will touch all the little corners of your mind, heart and soul, and you’ll be ready to start your own Pippa Grant book club so you can share her work with all your friends.

    Enjoyed this story. Listened to the audiobook. Narrators are Joe Arden and Karen White. You can’t go wrong with Joe as a narrator. Karen is new to me and her voice took while to get used too. This book is a Rom Com with some spice. Throw in a Fake Engagement, a male librarian who loves romance books you know you will also get some laughs.
