Synopsis

One bed. One (very awkward) shared past. What could go wrong?
With a fun and steamy twist on the only-one-bed trope, this debut contemporary romance will delight fans of The Love Hypothesis and The Paradise Problem.
Chemistry teacher Ashleigh Hutchinson knows better than anyone that love and lust don’t mix. The feelings come from different hormones, they trigger different responses, and they demand different reactions. Which is why she doesn’t date. She hooks up. No catching-of-feels required.
When Ashleigh is fired from her job without notice, she signs up to participate in a month-long sleep study, which will pay her enough to cover rent while she job hunts. It seems easy enough—until she walks into the clinic and finds herself staring right into the gorgeous eyes of Xander Miller, the only man to have ever tempted her to abandon her no-relationships rule.
When Xander and Ashleigh realize the study is only looking for couples, they agree to pretend to be together—which means sleeping in the same bed every night for the next few weeks. How hard can it be to keep their cool under the covers?
With steamy “will they or won’t they” tension and plenty of hilariously awkward moments, Bed Chemistry is sure to appeal to fans of Christina Lauren, Ali Hazelwood, and Meghan Quinn.

This is one of those I personally feel readers are either going to love it or hate it Not really a middle road here "We are at a sleep clinic, not a sleep 'with' clinic." I adored Xander. And the way he called Ash out on her leering... Every dang time - lol And there was a lot of leering and lusting co......more

[NetGalley Read #56] 4.00 ⭐️ "You deny yourself what you really want just to avoid the mess that comes with it," he says... "But the mess is the best part." This was a fun read.
