Our Review

‘We’d started under the shadows under the bleachers. And here we were, twenty years later standing in the sun.’

Rock Bottom Girl is a story about growth, love and second chances. About facing your insecurities and believing in yourself. A funny rom-com set in a wonderfully quirky small-town, we got to meet some fabulous and giggle-inducing characters and we adored it! Don’t even get us started on Jake Weston and his serious swoon factor! Our hearts are bursting with love for this guy!

“You’re a lot to handle before dawn.”
He grinned. “Baby don’t I know it.”

We follow Marley Cicero as she heads home feeling a failure once again and having to face the demons of her old town of Culpepper, Pennsylvania and the high school that left her full of insecurities and self-doubt. Not only that, but she has to face the humiliation once again coming face to face with Jake Weston, the boy who dumped her at homecoming. But is everything as it seems, or can memories sometimes distort the truth? Can you compare your happiness to another?

“We’re all just overgrown teenagers running around trying to be happy.”
“That’s oddly deep.”
“What can I say? I’m a deep guy.”
“No, you’re not.”

If you love slow burn, swoon, heat, heart, hilarious banter and you’re in the mood to have a lot of fun, you then get your mitts on this book. With all the doom in the world at the moment, we wanted a happy escape and we hoped Lucy Score would bring a smile to our faces, and she certainly achieved that! We fell in love with Jake, Marley, their friends and their families all with THE BIGGEST smiles and lots of giggles. We did feel as though it dragged a little at the end however the epilogue was more than worth the wait! We can’t wait to discover more Lucy Score!

‘Well, shit. So that’s how it felt. Knowing you wanted to do something every day for the rest of your life.’

Synopsis

“You may be faking the relationship, but you’re not faking the orgasms.”

Downsized, broke, and dumped, 38-year-old Marley sneaks home to her childhood bedroom in the town she couldn’t wait to escape twenty years ago. Not much has changed in Culpepper. The cool kids are still cool. Now they just own car dealerships and live in McMansions next door. Oh, and the whole town is still talking about that Homecoming she ruined her senior year.

Desperate for a new start, Marley accepts a temporary teaching position. Can the girl banned from all future Culpepper High Homecomings keep the losing-est girls soccer team in school history from killing each other and prevent carpal tunnel in a bunch of phone-clutching gym class students?

Maybe with the help of Jake Weston, high school bad boy turned sexy good guy. When the school rumor mill sends Marley to the principal’s office to sign an ethics contract, the tattooed track coach, dog dad, and teacher of the year becomes her new fake boyfriend and alibi—for a price. The Deal: He’ll teach her how to coach if she teaches him how to be in a relationship.

Who knew a fake boyfriend could deliver such real orgasms? But it’s all temporary. The guy. The job. The team. There’s too much history. Rock bottom can’t turn into a foundation for happily ever after. Can it?

Warning: Story also includes a meet-puke, a bouffanted nemesis, a yard swan and donkey basketball, a teenage-orchestrated makeover, and a fake relationship that gets a little too real between the sheets.
