The one that got away is living across the hall...
Pixie and Levi haven't spoken in nearly a year when they find themselves working-and living-at the same hotel in the middle of nowhere. Once upon a time, they were childhood friends. But that was before everything went to hell. And now things are... painful.
All they want to do is avoid each other, and their past, for as long as possible. But now that they're forced to share a bathroom, and therefore a shower, keeping their distance from one another becomes less difficult than keeping their hands off each other. Because despite everything that happened before, this isn't the kind of chemistry that it's easy to resist. Welcome to the hallway of awkward tension and sexual frustration, folks. Get comfy. It's going to be a long summer...

Review
Having loved all of the new adult books that I have read I jumped at the chance to read and review this title. I absolutely loved this book instantaneously, the moment I started it. Like a lot of new adult books (at least the ones that focus on one book per couple), you know where this books will more than likely end, but it’s the story in between that matters and Chelsea writes such loveable characters and the opening scene with the shower was a great, funny opener to the book.
I love that Pixie and Levi had known each other in the past, but were really close friends, not linked romantically. Helping her find solace from her absolutely cow-bag of a mother. Reading about their childhood added a real depth to the characters.
Pixie and Levi both start the book aware of their attraction towards one another, but a shared tragedy stops them pursuing it further, and instead, end up fighting with each other, trying to get revenge on using all the hot water, or blowing the fuse.
As mentioned earlier, Pixie’s mother isn’t very nice, and that’s putting it lightly. However I think her Aunt was so great, as was Pixie’s best friend, Jenna. It was great she had so many other people that cared for her.
This book is amazing, I loved Levi and Pixie, and they make such a great couple. I will definitely be checking out the rest in this series, pronto!
