This was my second book by Olivia and I must say she did not fail to bring me another great book.
Book Description
When Charlotte Parker meets Camden Smith during her first year at Oxford University at a Freshers’ after-party, their attraction is instantaneous. There is not a small chance in hell that anything between them will ever be platonic. This sizzling attraction leads to them having mind blowing sex at the party and when Camden later admits that he has a no-strings-attached approach to dating, Charlotte is seemingly thrilled at the idea.
In summary, GQ model-looking Camden Smith was good trouble from the start. And as for Charlotte, she loved and craved every moment of it.Both faced with the grueling workloads that come with being a part of Oxford’s student body elite, they agree that exclusively using each other as an outlet to ‘blow off steam ‘and have lots of fun while doing so is a brilliant idea. The arrangement works perfectly . . . at first until Charlotte’s past daemons and other external factors threaten to detonate their almost perfect plan.
Added to the drama is the fact that Charlotte has fallen hard for Camden and she’s uncertain about what she should do about it.
Can Camden put aside his fixed notions about being in a committed relationship and also remove the media’s image which portrays him as only being good enough to be a ‘a dumb party boy’ in order to give him and Charlotte the real chance that they deserve, or will Charlotte have to accept the fact that Camden can never be what she truly needs and decide to go their separate ways.

My Thoughts
This was my second book by Olivia Tasker and I was happy that this book kept my attention as much as the first.
Being the second book in a series it read like a stand-alone. However, If you read the first book you will notice it is like seeing the same story but from a flip point of view.
When we meet our two leads Charlotte Parker and Camden Smith both are dealing with two very different problems.
For Camden, he is trying to live a fun life without causing another scandal like he did once with a sex tape. He is also out to prove he is better than people give him credit for. To this, he has decided to only allow a few close friends into his inner circle and to only have one-night stands or hookups. Till he meets Charlotte.
Charlotte is determined not to let her past insecurities ruin the life she is building. Once a chubby teenager scarred by what people thought of her by looking at her she has become fit with curves in all the right places. She is determined not to let anyone hurt her again till she meets Camden.
What starts out as friends with benefits may be more if Charlotte lets her feelings known but is she and Camden both willing to risk it?
I love Charlotte as a plus-size woman I felt her inductees and her pain. I felt how what others say can hurt when they base your worth on a number. I really wanted to hug her many times and tell her she was stronger.
What I love about Olivia's writing is it is a great mix of storytelling and smut. She doesn't sacrifice one for the other so not only do you get to know the characters but you also get to enjoy their hot sex life. She brings a great balance. This story was a really good one and I loved seeing the story from a different point of view.
I am so happy Olivia asked me to read this book and that I got to revisit old friends and make new ones with a great heat factor.
