I was a little confused at first with the characters. I liked it better the farther along I got into the book. It was a good book.

Wow, I loved this book! You went thru so many emotions.
Phebe Stark is one hell of a smart woman. She went to school got her degree and is a commercial real estate executive. Phebe has been working on a deal that will surely get her the CEO position she’s been working towards. Except her immediate boss is an ass. He is constantly demeaning her and making sexist remarks. Walking out of her office she goes into a bar in the same neighborhood as her office, meeting an extremely sexy bartender. They hit it off, so it’s no surprise when he asks for her number, except Phebe changes one of the digits.
Brody can’t stop thinking about the gorgeous blonde so why not call her. Well she had the last laugh when he reaches a bait and tackle shop. Brody is not deterred, when he changes one of the numbers and surprise, surprise, Phebe answers the phone. So they start sexting and that develops into real sexing. Neither one of them wants a permanent relationship, so they set some rules. When she’s offered a position for the competition, Phebe is thrilled. However, her boss becomes a raging lunatic and fires her on the spot, good thing she recorded the whole incident, since now she’s pressing charges.
Everything is going so well, but Phebe has always been an independent woman and she says things to Brody that she later regrets. She needs to eat crow and apologize. But everything is not what it seems. There are twists and turns in this book that you won’t be able to put down.

Spicy and fun.
I enjoyed this book very much.
Good characters and character development.
For some reason, I kept hearing the song in my head when I read this book.
Recommend.

Brody and Phebe. I mean who doesn’t love Sext books. They are what we want now in days. This book was good.

Review will be posted Feb 12
When I saw the title "Let's Talk About Sext" I figured it was going to be a book where the main characters predominately communicated via sexts. Except, that could not have been further from the plot of this book. In fact, I think they sent about 4 texts (debatable if they were even sexts, really) to each other in the entirety of the book. Anyway... once I got over that - I had to get over the names of the characters. I feel like everyone has to give their characters these unique names with unique spellings and half the time it makes it a lot harder for me to really connect with the characters because I can't pick someone else with that name to think about as that character. While the male was Brody, which was normal enough, the female was Phebe. I assumed it was an alternate spelling of Phoebe. I kept reading it as plebe and I wasn't even sure what that word meant but I knew it wasn't a name.

The book alternates from her POV to his - she is a big successful rich business woman, he dropped everything to take over his uncle's bar and is barely making ends meet. The two seem to have chemistry from the moment they meet and end up entering into some weird FWB set up that was just stupid from the get go. But I guess without it the book would be pretty short. The romance parts were great, the rest kind of fell flat. Not the worst I've read but not the best either. And would it kill them to actually add the images of the emojis into the book instead of just the text descriptions of them? lol

I received a free e-copy of this book in order to write this review, I was not otherwise compensated. This book is being released February 19, 2019 from Random House Publishing Group - Loveswept.

Phebe is a smart, tough, and not always nice. She is fiercely independt and almost entirely focused on work. Brody is a small business owner who is just getting by - but is truly a good guy. They are definitely opposites - but they need each other. Brody needs someone to keep challenging him - and Phebe needs someone to bring her back down to earth,

The obstacles they face are almost entirely of their own making - and really its Phebe who is the instigator to most of the issues. Basically its her way or the highway - and there are no room for mistakes.

A lot oft he other readers had a strong dislike for Phebe - but I understood where she was coming from. I didn't agree with her - but I understood. Being a successful woman - particularly in the male dominated industry of corporate real estate, you can't really give an inch.

I liked it a lot - but I think it could have been an even better book 0 if the main characters had spent more time together - rather than on again off again.

This is a great book with a wonderful story and well developed characters. The story flowed very well and was very enjoyable. This book will keep you reading long into the night and you will not want to put this book down until you finish. This was such a great read and full of surprises. I am looking forward to reading other books by this great author.

This is my first book by Evie Claire, and it did not work for me. I had trouble connecting with the characters and from there it was all downhill. The cover however, was hot!

This is a real opposites attract sort of novel. Phebe Stark is a ballsy, successful real estate developer who doesn’t take anything from anyone. She knows how to make things happen. Brody Cantrell is a laid-back bar owner who overhears Phebe chewing someone out on the phone and is immediately attracted to her. What starts out as a supposed sex-only relationship is never that for Brody. He’s trying to play a long game in winning Phebe’s heart, but her type-A personality keeps getting in the way.

Their romance is a bit of a reverse from novels where the guy is the one who is focused on the bottom line and doesn’t think he has time for a relationship so thinks hot sex is enough.

There wasn’t much sexting as such a title would indicate, but lots of hot and heavy sex, especially their make-up sex.

I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book that I received from Netgalley; however, the opinions are my own and I did not receive any compensation for my review.

Evie Claire was a new author for me and I was intigued by the blurb for Let's Talk About Sext. The story sounded unique and refreshing. There were a lot of cute moments and you could definitely feel the attraction between the characters.

Sadly, it didn't really work for me. One of the biggest reasons is the fact that it's written in third person. Had I known I never would have turned the first page. I never connect well with books written that way, but I did try to disregard that when thinking about my overall feelings. The book, however, just seemed to drag along. It stared slow for me and never seemed to get any traction. I really think if we could cut out about 1/4 of it things might get better.

Overall I found it, well, a bit boring.

The editor asked that we wait to get a new corrected version. I will revise my review once that is recived. I am adding this note because I didn't want the book to go against my lack of reviews. I also did enjoy much of what I have read so far.

This is my first book by Evie Claire.

What I liked:
The writing style
Brody
Dual POVs
Part of a series: Let's Talk About Sext
Standalone
HEA

I look forward to reading the other books in this series.

Love this book! The story was great & so were the characters. I can't wait to read more books by this author.

I had a very hard time getting into the story. It's written in third person with long, uninterrupted paragraphs that meander around and go nowhere. I honestly wasn't sure what I was reading about until she finally introduced another character. I powered through and did finish this one, even though it was a bit painful. This was the first book I've read by this author, and I can't say I'll be looking for anything else from her.

Let's Talk about Sext by Evie Claire is one hot read! Fabulous plot twists and delightful characters support the book with solid foundation. The story is just alive with the individuality of these two and those they surround themselves with. Hot, delightful, steamy...and did I hot?

The editor asked that we wait to get a new corrected version. I will revise upon receipt as I did not want the books issued to count against my fulfilling my commitment and this book is showing up as over 90

Very cute story. Clever writing, great characters. I absolutely loved Brody. In my mind it was Jason Mamoa I pictured as I was reading his character. Some of the lines that Phebe said were so funny. I enjoyed reading this book.

Book was pulled by publisher. We were asked not to read it so I am not reading it. While it asked for a star rating, the one star means nothing.
