It&#8217;s sweet, sexy and a whole lot of fun.<\/p>\n<p>Warren shares an apartment with Ridge and Brennan. One day he walks in on host new roommate. It seems this new roommate is a girl and she is hot. Immediately they rub each other the wrong way and the sexual tension skyrockets. On the outside it seems like Bridgette and Warren can&#8217;t stand each other but on the inside a fire is brewing and a spark is all that&#8217;s needed for them to burst into flames.\u00a0 And when they finally combust, it is smokin&#8217;! The banter is fantastic,\u00a0the push and pull is epic both in and out of the bedroom, and the chemistry is hot!<\/p>\n<p>Warren was a fantastic character. I loved that we got to see who he truly was as a person and not just what we learned about him from Maybe Someday. His train of thought was hilarious and he had me laughing-out-loud on numerous occasions. I also loved Warrens ability to read situations and that he was always there to support Bridgette when she needed it most. He was so much more than I thought he would be.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;I don&#8217;t want her,&#8221; I sign. \u00a0&#8220;But I feel like I need her. So bad. She&#8217;s so&#8230;&#8221; I pause my hands for a few seconds before continuing. &#8220;She&#8217;s the best worst thing that&#8217;s ever happened to me.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Bridgette is a broken, closed off, gorgeous girl who had a devastating childhood that shaped the way she is. My heart hurt for her and I understood her emotions. I loved seeing her slowly open up to Warren and that their connection was more than just physical in nature. They were hilarious together and I enjoyed every interaction.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;God, you&#8217;re such a bitch.&#8221;<br \/>\nShe laughs again. &#8220;I know. A bitch who finally met the right asshole.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A great little companion novella, I loved that we saw glimpses into some of the Maybe Someday scenes looking in from the outside.\u00a0 I can&#8217;t believe I waited so long to read Maybe Not.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>She&#8217;s nothing I&#8217;ve ever wanted in a girl. And absolutely everything I need.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Maybe Series<\/strong><\/h4>\n<div data-post-id=\"16378\" class=\"insert-page insert-page-16378 \"><p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2142\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/?attachment_id=2142\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Maybe-Someday-80.jpg?fit=80%2C122&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"80,122\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Maybe Someday &amp;#8211;
