Four guys.

Constant moaning.

And a revolving door across the college suite I somehow ended up in because my first name is Shawn.

They don't discriminate. Girls. Guys. Grandmas. Plants (okay maybe not plants) all walks of life stroll in stressed to the brim, and leave so satisfied I'm wondering what sort of talents lie behind that door.

My roommate calls them the pleasure ponies.

But the rest of the college campus?

They just call them the new face of Wingmen Inc. A paid for relationship service that makes big promises.

Breakup? They'll glue you back together again.

Depressed? They have the magic pill.

Lonely? Just spend a few minutes while they rub you down and you'll forget all about it.

And broken hearts? Well, that's their specialty. They'll fix you.

For a price…

I swore I wouldn't get involved.

But apparently they like a challenge, and a girl who doesn't put up with their BS is basically like waving a red flag in front of a bull.

They. All. Charged.

But one holds my attention above the rest.

Knox Tate looks like a Viking — and getting pillaged is starting to look more appealing by the day. Though he's hiding something — all of them are. And the closer I get. The more I realize that some things are left better in the past.

You've read reverse harem books before — but you've never read one like this. It's not what you think, or is it? Dive in and find out…

Knox, Leo, Finn, and Slater are waiting, and they aren't patient men.

Welcome to the new face of Wingmen Inc — You're welcome.

I have never read a reverse harem book so was excited to read my first one by one of my favorite authors. Co-Ed is a spin off of the Matchmakers series… a series I really loved!

Co-Ed was SO MUCH FUN! Knox, Leo, and Finn are our “pleasure ponies” but it’s not like what you think (which I won’t tell you more than that because you need to find out what they do behind the closed doors yourself). These sexy men with their fun personalities are the new faces of Wingmen Inc.

Shawn, our heroine, is living in their suite in college because of a mix-up with her name and no alternative housing available. She is roommates with Slater who HATES the pleasure ponies across the hall and I couldn’t help but question why though I did have a sneaking suspicion of something sad that would break my heart.

It was enjoyable to watch the everyday life of these characters as they try to navigate an actual friendship with a GIRL while watching said girl fall for Knox, the most untouchable of them all.

So while I loved this story, there was just something missing for me. I actually had to google “reverse harem” because I know nothing about this new genre and what I learned and what this story was seemed very different. Yes, Shawn had a connection with these guys but it was more friendship than anything else besides the connection she had with Knox. So I think I was expecting more from that reverse harem aspect though I was fine with the friendship part too because I think I would have had a heart attack if she had to choose!

I did love the big reveal and how it all tied together in the end because it did leave an air of mystery trying to figure out how and why the guy’s relationship with Slater all changed.

I enjoyed all flirty banter, the sweetness, the friendship of all the guys and would definitely read more in this series because I want each one to find their happy.
