Review: #Jerk Kat T. Masen

*****5 Stars*****
 
 
If you don't like a love triangle, this book may not be for you. But for all that's holy ‪#‎pleaseread‬!!
This book is a stand-alone, but I so hope we hear more from these couples or Mrs. Masen does a series with any of the side couples.

We have Presley, she's been dreaming of her perfect life, her perfect man, and the perfect according to her OCD plan of life. If there's a way to make a check list and live strictly to it...Presley found it. She's also strong, smart, and independent.
I'm not a huge fan of female leads, but by God, I love her.
Then we have Hayden, he's the ‪#‎Jerk‬. Can I just say in my defense, when you come back and say, "how could you?" I'm sure enough going to say, "I loved him!!"
He's sarcastic, arrogant, and a little easy. Okay a lot easy.

These two meet through work and it just goes from there.
I loved the back and forth banter. I loved the sparks that grew. I'm so glad this wasn't an insta-love book, that would never have worked with these stubborn, bull-headed, and I love to one up the other characters.

One thing I usually HATE is the gay guy pal in all the romantic comedy books. Can I just say, it worked in here!! I couldn't wait to hear what came out of Clive's mouth next. See, he was also so funny, he has some of the best one liners, EVER!!

There's only two things I can say even remotely negative about this book:
1. I would have loved more smexy time between these two. The thing is though this story is so solid, I didn't notice that I needed more (between the sheets) til I read Epilogue. I was yelling, NOOO!! Hold the press.
Which brings me to number...
2. I need more!! I loved these characters. I even loved the side characters and their stories. So Mrs. Masen, you HAVE to make this a series.

If you are looking for a Rom-Com with strong characters, side characters, and a twisty-thorny plot....
This is a MUST read.

Synopsis
 
He was that boy in the playground.
The one that pulled your pigtails.
The one that lifted your dress in front of the entire school.
Now he's that guy in the office.
The one that steals your lunch from the fridge.
The one that gets away with everything.
I'm sure you know him. Everyone knows that guy.
He's a #JERK.

Presley Malone knew her relationship with her fiancé, Jason, had run its course.
The second that ring came off her finger, she didn't expect to be the pawn in an immature game played by the office jerk.

His name is Haden Cooper, and he is six years younger than her. Immature and irresponsible, getting drunk and stoned every weekend like he never left college. He rode a motorcycle, carrying a different girl each week. He was everything a jerk should be—insensitive, unreliable, and most importantly, a heartbreaker.

Haden enjoyed playing games, and when it came to Presley Malone, it was all too easy. Miss Know-it-all with her over-the-top OCD was soon going to get a taste of what it was like to live on the edge.

But what starts off as an innocent prank soon becomes an unhealthy obsession.

He is wrong for her and she is wrong for him. It's a battle of the sexes ready to go to war. But in this battle there are no winners, and it takes only one fateful night and six tequilas for their lives to take an unexpected turn that changes them both forever.
