This is a difficult book to rate.I read it in one sitting, couldn't put it down. From the start it had me laughing my head off at Tia's "wingman" antics. The $500 dollars and the promise of a night with Reign and the chaos that ensued, literally had me laughing like a drain!Tia was a feisty girl, sailor's mouth, attitude from hell, didn't take anyone's crap....until she started getting feelings for Reign. Then she turned into this pathetic, whiney, whingy pain in the bum. I suppose it's difficult if there's an unrequited love, to watch them fawn over someone else. But Tia knew what she was being paid to do.The lines became blurred when Tia and Reign took their friendship to the next level. I felt sorry for her in one way because although getting emotionally involved with Reign was her dumbest idea, you can't control the feelings in your heart.Reign...he started out as fun bobby, needing a wingman to get himself laid was funny, but then he turned into a total bellend. He used Tia to make himself feel good, that's never cool, especially when he was still chasing his ex.It was a very interesting idea for a story. Most blokes have a wingman, a friend who will pair up with a girl's ugly friend and take one for the team (yeh I know, shoot me now, cut off my balls, plot my death 101 ways but it's true lol) so the wingman being a woman and actually getting the lays for her buddy was a great concept.Bella Jewell is a strange author to me. On one hand, she writes this very funny story....then she writes a book like Life After Taylah that is packed with heartbreaking emotion....then she writes a book like Thirteen which is completely at odds to these books and is very very dark.Strange is probably the wrong word to use....talented....she is freaking talented.So my rating.....gotta be 5*
