New to the Big Apple, the last thing Lexie Bloom needs is to fall for two guys at once. Especially when she can’t have either. One is her personal trainer, an Adonis way out of her league. The other? A Brit Lit professor her svelte boss insists she woo for her—via text message, no less. Little does she know, the two are the same man…
Matthew Hennessey is intrigued by his shy new client at the gym. But before he gets the chance to ask her out, he discovers she’s the one crafting the flirty texts sent to him by a woman who wouldn’t know Lord Byron from Lady Gaga.

His gaze fell to her mouth as he grazed a work-roughened thumb across her bottom lip. “I’ve waited so long, eons before we met.”
“You are a poet,” she whispered, her heart filled with awe.
His eyes hooded, he rolled her over, pinning her beneath his delicious length, and she surrendered to his kiss, grabbing his hair and locking him to her. Then she gave it all back and more, her mouth moving against his, telling him all she wanted him to do with her tongue. “I want you so much,” she breathed against his mouth, tilting her hips up.
I want more.
He lifted his weight off her.
Racy thoughts of him sliding and sinking inside her, deep and full, punctuated by the real-time yank of his belt and rasp of his zipper somewhere in the darkness beside her bed had her jumping up in an impromptu competition to dress the floor with her clothes, too. She’d wiggled out of her boots and jeans when she glimpsed him stealing around behind the sofa bed. “What’re you doing?”
With a soft whooshing sound, the curtains parted, and the glow of streetlights shone across the room in pale, revealing stripes.
“Oh, I see.” She grinned, unable to take her eyes off his frame—lip-smackingly nude except for his sexy silk boxers in black. “Going camping?”
“Lot of tent raising in recent weeks, and all because of you,” he mused. He moved toward her and lifted a hand as if to caress her face, but then stopped. “Maybe that’s why.”
“Why what?”
He scrubbed his jaw and sank onto the bed. “There’s something important I have to tell you.”
Uh, no. He didn’t. She just wanted this moment. “Are you married? Living with someone?”
“No!”
She sank onto the bed beside him. “Gay?”
“I wouldn’t be here if I were.”
“Then whatever it is can wait. I’ve wanted you for three long weeks, too, and I refuse to wait any longer.” She ran a hand along his bare thigh.
“You’re too much, Lexie Bloom.” Turning toward her, he laughed softly and pushed her gently onto her back.
Oomph—Oh. My.
She bit back a moan of pleasure when he slid up and over her, straddling her like she’d done him, her system on happiness overload as he leaned forward, his length pressed intimately against her abdomen.
He fondled her through the silk of her bra, caressing and rubbing, then, as if unwrapping a gift meant just for him, he lifted her breasts from their confines. “So beautiful,” he rasped. Dipping his head, he took one breast in his mouth, his tongue laving and circling, his lips pulling and sucking, his hands squeezing and molding. He went from one to the other, as if he couldn’t get enough of either.
Take me there.
Like he had begun to before.
Like she wanted him to now.

** I RECEIVED AN ARC IN EXCHANGE OF AN HONEST REVIEW **
Text Me, Maybe is part of the Entangled LoveStruck Romances, it's an standalone written by Jolyse Barnett. This is the second version, but there were a few people who read it before they changed it -it wasn't published, so this is a review for the new version :) This is my first book by Jolyse, and I liked it, I had a fantastic reading, the book has many many hilarious moments, plus sweet ones, and hot ones.
Matthew is Lexi's new personal trainer and the guy she fell for... twice. She fell for the hot guy and for the nerdy one. He's a hot-dream come true, yet he has a little problem with being turn down. I think that's kind of sweet and how he handled it was sweeter. Lexi has moved to New York to have better job opportunities, and also, to make her dream job come true - to be a writer. Meanwhile she has to work as an assistant for a woman who... doesn't have time even to flirt with someone. They had an instant chemistry, and as the times goes, those little butterflies became bumper cars, and they took their relation to the next level. But sometimes omit something is still lying.
Text Me, Maybe is a light, funny, easy, sweet romance. I had a very good moment reading it, so I think if you like light romance you can give it a try. Both main characters were different somehow, but at the same time they seemed to be right to each other. Anyways, the blurb was quite descriptive, so you don't go completely blind, of course, there are many many things it doesn't tell.
