Description

One hundred years ago when I was young and impulsive (okay, it was five, alright? Five years ago…) I let my boyfriend take, let's just say...compromising pictures of me.

(Shut up. It made sense at the time).

Surprise! The sleazy back-stabbing jerk posted them on a website and, well, you can guess what happened. That’s right.

I’m a meme. A really gross one. 

You’ve seen the pictures. And if you haven't – don’t ask. And don't look!

As face recognition software online improves, I get tagged on social media whenever anyone shares my pictures. You try getting a thousand notifications a day, all of them pictures of your tatas.

So. I’m done.

It’s time for revenge. Let him see how it feels! But how do you get embarrassingly intimate pictures of your jerkface ex who double-crossed you five years ago?

Especially when he’s a member of the U.S.House of Representatives now? 

Getting sweet between the sheets with a congressman is pretty much every political roadie’s dream, right? I’m one in a crowd.

Except to this day, he swears he didn’t do it. Pursued me for months after I dumped him five years ago. Begged me to take him back.

And I almost did it. Almost. I was weak and stupid and in love a hundred years ago.

Okay. Fine. Five.

But I still have the upper hand. Second chance romance has all the emotional feels, doesn’t it? 

I can’t wait to punch him in the feels.

All I need to do is sleep with him once, take some hot-and-sweaty pics of him in... delicate positions, and bring him down. That’s it. Nothing more.

Pictures first. Revenge after. And then I win.

At least, that’s how it was supposed to happen. But then I did something worse than sexting.

I fell in love with him. Again.

    Cute story but took too long getting to the point. I finally had to skim to make sure I had figured out the villain. Way too easy.
  • Memorable characters!

    Quirky characters and snappy whip smart dialogue creates a heartfelt emotional story with plenty of heat.

    I struggled to finish this book. The main character was annoying and would go off on tangents in her head- the tangents added nothing to the book and made it drag out. I felt they were just page fillers. This is was an awful book.
  • Excellent fun and great listen

    Amazingly, fun read and listen, Erin Mallon does a great job with this narration. My favorite so far. One discretionary lapse, changes the lives of those closest, and mayhem ensues. Julia Kent’s signature humor, snark and laugh out loud idioms are abundant in this newest book. There is steam romance and HEA. Another top listen and read, add this to your “top read” list.

    This was probably the worst book I’ve EVER read. The banter between characters was pathetic. Basically it was a one note song. Boring, repetitive, stuck on one theme only. Awful conversations....how many more words do I need to post this review? Ok more words need lacking in content, theme and character. Characters were shallow, unbelievable and just stupid. Have I reached my word limit yet? No? Geeze all I can say is this book was awful, I usually like Kent’s books but this one seemed as if she had a deadline she was struggling to meet and just threw an awful story together and charged us $4.99 .

    Hilarious addition to the series! I loved Perky. The banter and the unique names had me rolling. I enjoyed watching them work through the misunderstandings of the past and find their way forward. Full of passion, comedy, love, and a bit of mystery! Looking forward to more from this series!
  • Good read!

    So glad for Perky’s book! I enjoyed Perky & Parker & the rest of the characters that we were introduced to in Fluffy. This was a cute, sweet lovers to revenge to lovers book that I found very entertaining.
