Trust (Wrong, #4)

by Jana Aston

"KNOCK KNOCK!"
"UM... WHO'S THERE?"

Yeah. That was me, on my last date. Before you feel sorry for me
you should know that I was the one telling the jokes. Jokes as in
plural, because I didn't stop with just one. Of course not.

Hi. I'm Chloe Scott. The most awkward single girl in the city.
But I'm going to get it together. I am.

I'm going to learn how to date like a grown up.
I'm going to have an orgasm not given to myself.
And I'm going to live happily ever after.

Right after I get out of this interrogation room.

I needed to Trust my audio to get me through.

I'm not sure if you know, but I'm the wife of a sporty man and the mother of two very sporty kids. Last night was the State of Origin. For my foreign friends, this is a big deal in the Rugby Leauge world. Queensland -vs- New South Wales smash it out in three games and it's a BIG DEAL!!.

Now, this little ducky doesn't like sport AT ALL. Oh, I'm the biggest fans of my kids' sports, but grown men smashing into each other carrying a ball from one end of the field to the other just doesn't do it for me. Seeing the players in their suits before and after the games...now that's more my cup of tea.

Anyways... the Sassy household gets a wee bit loud when the State of Origin is playing and I really don't like it. It's hard enough to get hubby to watch his swearing when Queensland's winning, but if they're losing...well it's a losing battle for me. Now my kiddywinks are getting older and not at all unaware (unfortunately) of swearing. Lucky for me, they don't swear. Hubby, on the other hand, well it's a good thing I love him. So, I'm resigned to the screaming and cursing.

ANYWAYS...to cover the noise of State of Origin, my trusty audio plays a part. Earbuds in, door shut, and Kindle set up with Solitaire and Pinterest...I'm a happy girl. It also helped that Trust was an absolute crack-up. Hopefully, my laughing covered the other noises so the neighbours won't be too horrified by my very uncouth boys.

Trust was awesome. I loved the characters, the storyline and the settings. A slightly nerdy heroine who has A LOT of trouble finding love. Chloe is determined to give a relationship a go. Unfortunately, she's been on some shocking dates and the last one leaves her sitting in an interrogation room across from a very sexy man. How embarrassing? When the interrogation is over, Chloe hopes to never have to think about it again. Nope, Chloe's not that lucky. Turns out the sexy man is her friend's brother and she has to face him the next day.

Boyd can't believe his luck when the very cute and dorky woman he met turns out to be his sister's friend. She's a little skittish, but Boyd is determined to get to know her better. It's going to take some serious skills in manipulation to successfully win this girl...but he's up for the challenge.

I loved Boyd and Chloe together. He sees her and wants her. Boyd looks past her anxious ways and manages to, sometimes, help her relax and enjoy herself.

This is a VERY sexy story. I finished this story off on the way to work and there was this one scene...OH MY LORDY! I was standing on the train platform and I was squirming and blushing and squirming and deep breathing...let's just say that it was HOT!!

I have really enjoyed this series. It's sexy, funny and sweet. I can't wait to read/listen to more by Jana Aston. The narrators do a fabulous job and I will definitely listen to anything (romance) these two do together.

Trust was amazing! The perfect blend of hot, humorous, romantic, sweet, awkward  and just plain fun. Chloe got to me in a big way, just like I knew she would!



I have to say that Trust is my favorite in Aston's Wrong series! Chloe and Boyd were both really relatable characters I could totally believe in! And Aston's writing voice gets stronger with each book she releases, it's distinctive and filled with snarky humor, as well as a certain vulnerability that isn't that common to find in romantic comedies. I already knew Chloe and Boyd a little bit as they showed up in both Wrong and Right, and I have to say that seeing them together made me very happy! Between Chloe's online dating troubles (I am so, so thankful I have a partner I want to keep so that I don't feel like looking for someone - anywhere, really!) and her awkwardness when it comes to spending time with people she wants to impress made her so very realistic. The way she and Boyd met was too funny, as he was an FBI agent who had to question her after arresting her date for counterfeit tickets to a football game...

The other characters I had already come to know and love were very much present in Trust, Sandra, Everly and Sophie were all there, and it was great to see how they were doing after meeting their significant others before Chloe did. Boyd was the perfect guy for Chloe, a little older and more mature than her, and definitely on to her social anxiety that he was able to truly help her with by just letting her take everything one day at a time. There was a definite tenderness between them, just as much as off the charts chemistry and extreme hotness. And the way he kind of played with not going on dates with her so that she wouldn't be nervous made me love him very much!

As they got to know each other better, Chloe's knock-knock jokes and other nervous tics made me want to cheer for her - but Boyd did that very well on his own. Written in first person present tense, mostly from Chloe's perspective but with some chapters from Boyd's as well, Trust had a very nice pace. The amazing dialogues and one-liners made it even better, and my heart feels very full of both love, tenderness, pride (yeah, I'm proud of Chloe!!) and some chuckles, still. If you're looking for a romantic comedy that has a lot of action both in and out of the bedroom, as well as characters that are well fleshed out and relatable, this whole series is a must-read!



We all stop looking at our menus to look at Sophie. She's adorable, actually. She looks good pregnant, even if she doesn't think so. Her stomach is indeed huge - she's due in less than two weeks - but it looks like she's got a basketball shoved under her shirt. She's all limbs and bump.

I've been stood up. I've been sent dick pics - more unsolicited dick pics than I can count. I mean, what is with that? How does that seem like a good idea? I deleted the first one figuring it was a random loony. After the third one I checked my online dating profile, wondering if I'd somehow checked a box requesting penis pictures. I couldn't even find an option for that. 

I've known I wanted to be a teacher since I was a kid. School was my happy place, my constant no matter what was going on at home. My teachers supported me with kind words and patience and made me feel needed. I couldn't wait to grow up and be just like them.
