A Little Buzzed

By: Alys Murray

Narrated by: Isabelle Turner

If she builds it, they will come.

A sex toy engineer with one big secret finally meets her match, and together they’ll put their own products to the test in this steamy romantic comedy.

Scout Porter is screwed. Not literally, of course. Literally, she’s a twenty-six-year-old virgin, thanks to a relationship so disastrous she swore off love and sex for good. Metaphorically, she’s screwed because the entire office of BuzzCorp, the sex toy start-up where she’s head engineer, just found out. Scout needs her team to stay focused on their upcoming launch, not her lack of a sex life, so she finds the simplest solution: lose her V-card—and fast—then get back to business as usual.

Enter Hudson Bailey, the nerdy and charming software developer hired to build the app for Scout’s latest creation. The only problem is, he’s as inexperienced with sex toys as she is with sex. Fortunately, he’s all too eager to learn, and they agree that one very educational, totally professional hook-up will solve both of their problems. All for research, obviously.

But their little experiment yields unexpected results—chemistry so off the charts Scout starts to think she might actually want more than just a one-time fling. When their budding relationship is threatened by the return of Scout’s notorious ex, both Scout and Hudson will have to decide if they’ve reached their climax as a couple, or if they’re willing to risk everything for a chance at true love.

Super funny

This book was super funny and really unconventional there were times I did laugh out loud. You had Scout who knew a lot about sex toys but not sex and Hudson who knew about sex but not sex toys. Scout and Hudson both worked for BuzzCorp a company that makes sex toys. This book was about exploration or experimenting and testing the limits. Scout was super smart and went by data and measured things by data. Hudson came in and flipped her world upside down. He was patient and kind with her, he taught her to love herself again and that she was enough. At times Scout did bug me but not enough that it made dislike the book any less. Scouts back ground makes sense as to why she is the way she is, but she makes up for it at the end.

Great Tale

What a fun and clever story. The corny chapter titles are not indicative of the creative writing of the characters of this story. Even though it is only told from the woman's POV, not my favorite, I enjoyed this book so much and will probably reread.
The MMC is a golden retriever and swoony. I would've loved to get his POV and a bit less of the FMCs. And its nice and steamy galore! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
