Very Unlikely (Ballsy Boys Book 4) Kindle Edition

by Shandi Boyes (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 335 ratings

The last time a jock and a nerd went head-to-head, I was conceived. Since my parents’ story didn’t have a happy ending, I’ve strived to stop history from repeating itself ever since.

I play ball every week, date cheerleaders and sorority sisters, and attend the most happening parties, but I had no clue how meaningless my existence was until I stumbled upon Summer Ramsay.

She was a mess in all meanings of the word. Her hair was a disaster, her wardrobe borrowed from both her mother and father’s closet, and she wore blue eyeshadow like she was hankering for a Gun N Roses reunion.

Yet, despite all that, I couldn’t help but gawk.

She was nothing like the women I ‘dated,’ and everything I aimed to stay away from, but when an unexpected interaction unearthed her ability to sniff out a psychopath from a mile away, I knew we had to collaborate.

The terms of our agreement were simple. I’d help Summer become less dorky, and she’d save my face from being scalded by wannabe black widows.

It was perfect… until we decided to test the no hanky-panky clause that formed our friendship by booking a hotel room with only one bed.

Very Unlikelyis a fun and sexy friends to lovers standalone sports romance. It has laugh-out-loud scenes, swoon-worthy moments, and times where you want to bang their heads together and tell them to kiss already! It’s book four in the Ballsy Boys Series, but based on brand-new characters, so it can be read as a complete standalone.

    Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2021

    This was a nice change of pace from my normal dark reading. An adorable sports ⚽️ romance friends to lovers. Very slow burn 🔥 almost done before it even really starts!

    Lennox and Summer are the typical opposites attract. The good girl/nerd and the popular guy/jock. She had the perfect parents, he would rather screw around than let his parents history repeat its self. A friendship pact, which put them firmly in the friend zone, was made and a “no touch” clause in place. Lennox helped her be less “dorky” and she helped his avoid psycho hookups. It was perfect except they both wanted each other from moment one.

    🗓 3 years later, attraction still there between them, but also adoration and comfort. It’s no wonder they both fell in love 🥰 but neither wanted to be the first to break the pact they made. Lennox thought he would help avoid hurting her by pushing her away. When summer tried to step out and date, Lennox flipped. Everyone has their boiling point, even laid back Summer and Lennox! He claimed it was so everyone would get what they want without giving up their dreams, but was it?

    Overall, I would recommend this book and can be read as a complete stand-alone.

    This is the fourth story in the "Ballsy Boys" series. It is an entertaining and fun story about a jock and nerd. This is a college romance that was very enjoyable. It is about a friendship that grew into so much more. The story is nicely developed and a lovely romance. I really loved the characters! *I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book.*

    I really enjoyed this book, from the characters to the storyline. I loved the friendship and chemistry between the main characters. I laughed several times throughout. Humorous and steamy with heartfelt moments throughout.
    Summer was raised by her dad and hos grease monkey friends. She's a tomboy. Lennox is s baseball phenom, a player on and off the field. His dad is a nightmare. The two have a chance encounter with crazy and strike a deal. They end up nest friends.
    This is a standalone romance with no cheating and an HEA. Steamy, funny, with some language. Definitely recommend.

    Friends to lovers story. Summer and Lennox start out as good friends but both are secretly attracted to each other. Be warned Lennox is a manwhore who sleeps around, which kind of put me off the book.

    However if you don't mind this, it was an enjoyable story but a little on the crude side

    I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

    Okay so let me be honest, Shandi Boyes has been taking over my IG with her awesomely hot reels and teasers. I have been wanting to read enigma series for a while and just haven’t have the time to read a full series. So when a reel for Very Unlikely came up, I ran my sweet ass over to Amazon to grab it! I am so happy I did, the banter within this book alone would have been enough for me to love it but then you add everything else and I was a goner!

    Our two leads are Lennox and Summer they meet and have the most unlikeliest of friendships. Summer is mad and butthurt that Lennox didn’t match with her on a dating app, one she doesn’t feel she belongs on anyways as it’s for ‘one night stands’ and he was the only person she clicked on. When he uses up where she works she thinks maybe he changed his mind only to be brought straight back to reality but she acts in the most marvellous way.. Lennox is there to meet his latest conquest, only for summer to quickly step in showing him want a loon she really is. And the rest as they say is history or is it?

    Lennox is no doubt your average athlete player, he’s cocky, walks the walk with his D swinging around for all to see, he doesn’t want a relationship no more than a one night stand is needed. The is handsome, sarcastically witty, fun and questions the ‘no touching clause’ to their friendship daily! He is set to make it big in baseball and will let nothing hold him back, he is determined to step out of his fathers shadow no matter what it takes or what he has to lose.

    Summer is beautiful she just doesn’t see it, like any young woman she only notices her flaws. Yet she is a knockout! She is beautiful inside and out, she is smart, brilliantly witty and sassy as hell. I’d be her best friend any day!! She wants to be a doctor, she wants to find a cure for cruel fate her mother faced. She has loved Lennox along time but would rather have him as a friend than nothing at all and plus she sees what a dirty dog he can be the last 3 years.

    I absolutely LOVED summers dad!!! (Hmm yes please sir)

    Will truths come to light?
    Will 6 weeks sharing the one room have them crossing lines they set out a long time ago?
    Will it ruin the friendship they both hold close to their hearts?
    Will the tails of their parents life hold too much over their thoughts?

    I so enjoyed this book, it had me crying laughing, and just plain old upset.

    I am sad we didn’t get to see more of them in the future, maybe or at least one more from Lennox.
