JIMMY
Over the past year, I’ve been called a lot of things. Slacker. Troublemaker. Party animal.
I thought I was on top of the world. Turns out, I was pretty close to rock bottom.
Now I have a new title: college dropout.
Talk about a reality check.
But I’ve got a chance to redeem myself. One summer to turn things around. Two months to prove I’m not a complete f*ck-up.
It’s time to change.
I want to get back to being one of the good guys.
MACKENNA
I have everything I need to live out my dream of being a reclusive songwriter—my guitar, my notebook, and blissful silence.
At least, I did until Jimmy moved in next door.
With tattoos, piercings, and mischievous green eyes, he’s got bad news written all over him. And last time I got with a bad boy, it ended horribly.
Jimmy makes me feel things I shouldn’t feel. Want things I shouldn’t want. He’s a hazard to my carefully laid plans.
But he’s only here for two months.
I can resist him...right?

MY REVIEW:
Dropout is the third book in Jamie Schlosser's SUPER IRRESISTIBLE Good Guys Series and is my new favorite! Jimmy is an absolute SWOON worthy man that left me falling in love with this bad boy turned good boy right away. He has a charming grin, a sexy attitude, yummy tattoos and the way he cares for both Mackenna and his grandma, Beverly just made my heart all fluttery. Oh, speaking of that entertaining spitfire, Beverly is still my favorite foul-mouthed, sassy old timer ever! I can't help but to laugh at the stuff that comes out of her mouth. She is such a hoot and definitely a favorite character of mine!
This particular book had me chocking up a time or two and I SOOO cried at one particular scene. I wanted to HUG Mackenna so bad. That poor woman went through something so horrible but I was so amazed with how she didn't let it destroy her. She is a bit reserved but I couldn't blame her and Jimmy was PERFECT for her. He brought her out of her shell and made her realize just how amazing of a woman she is. And the sparks between these two just flare and pop every which way. One of the main reasons why I LOVE, ADORE, CHERISH this series is because it simply makes me happy! Its like being home! I am comfortable, and I look forward to diving in and I NEVER want leave. Its one of the BEST feelings ever and this series just gets more and more AMAZING! Jimmy and Mackenna will make your heart happy...trust me on that!
Dropout gets an UNFORGETTABLY AMAZING FIVE SHOOTING STARS! I love how much I couldn't seem to stay away from this book. It was the last thing I thought of before bed, and the first thing I thought of as I got up in the morning!
Jimmy Buffet’s ‘Cheeseburger in Paradise’ blared through the house, and I followed the music to the kitchen. I wasn’t sure what I would find, but as long as it wasn’t my neighbor making out with her neighbor I was good.
Turning the corner, I stopped dead in my tracks at the sight in front of me.
It wasn’t Beverly. Or Ernie.
And I most definitely wasn’t good.
A guy wearing nothing but camo-print underwear and a peach-colored apron stood in front of the stove. He was facing away from me, and I caught sight of a large tattoo—angel wings—across the expanse of his muscular back.
Surprised, I let out a high-pitched squeak. The sound got the stranger’s attention and he started to pivot in my direction.
My eyes fell to his sculpted ass, the muscles flexing as he shifted his weight from one foot to the other. He wore briefs. Not boxers or boxer-briefs—actual tighties. No guy should look good in those, but damn, he did.
His black hair was shorter on the sides and longer on top. Some of the inky strands fell over his forehead, falling to just above his bright green eyes.
His lips were parted in surprise, and something flipped in my stomach at the sight of his mouth. The bottom lip was twice the size of the top. Plump. Pouty.
Dark tattoos painted his chest and he had colorful flowers down the length of his left arm. And…
Is that a nipple piercing?
Because of the apron, I couldn’t see his abs, but my guess was that he had a solid six-pack under there.
I opened my mouth to say something—anything.
I wanted to ask him what he was doing in Beverly’s house. Or apologize for walking in on him while he was naked.
Instead, my social awkwardness presented itself full-force with the words that tumbled out of my mouth next.
“If you tried to hide in the woods, at least no one would be able to see your ass.”
His emerald eyes widened. “What?”
Figuring he probably didn’t hear me the first time because of the loud music, I raised my voice. “Camouflage underwear. Your butt would totally blend in with the bushes.”
Looking like he was caught between laughing and being outraged, he opened his mouth to respond.
Then all hell broke loose.
Jamie Schlosser grew up on a farm in Illinois surrounded by cornfields. Although she no longer lives in the country, her dream is to return to rural living someday. As a stay-at-home mom, she spends most of her days running back and forth between her two wonderful kids and her laptop. She loves her family, iced coffee, and happily ever afters.
