Synopsis (Goodreads):
Now, Louis and Annabelle weren't as adorably opposite as the other two couples. In fact, they fit remarkably well together even before they fit together in the physical sense. Louis can be dramatic and relentless when he wants something. Annabelle is conscientious when it comes to her job, but she still has a bit of a wild streak that complemented Louis's dramatics. (Not that he was overly dramatic, he was just very artsy. As in, with an artsy personality. What? It worked for him.)
Just so we're clear, their lack of oppositedness doesn't mean they don't have hurdles to clear. Louis is self-conscious about the injuries that took his leg. Annabelle is trying REALLY HARD not to let on she has a massive crush of her boss. Which is all thrown out the window one tipsy night, but those things happen, amirite?
Anywho. Louis is flirty and adorable. Annabelle is sassy and protective of the man who makes her heart go pitter-patter. I kinda loved them together and I'm so sad this is the final book in the series. (At least that's what I assume seeing as all three of the men have now found their special someone.) That said, I've loved all the books in this series and I'm perpetually down for a reread of any and all of them.

Synopsis (Goodreads):
Roomies with benefits and the potential for so much more in Marriage Lessons by Katie Ruggle, writing as Katie AllenThoughts on Marriage Lessons: OH MY GAWD, I ADORE THIS SERIES. Like, seriously. I thought James and Topher were awesome. I thought Ham and Leah were sweetly cute. AND NOW WE HAVE LOUIS AND ANNABELLE. *draws glittery hearts around all three of the couples*
Falling for your boss—no matter how fast he makes your pulse race—is such a cliché. But it’s one Annabelle Shay can’t seem to avoid. Gallery owner Louis Dumont is stupid hot. Plus, he’s sweet, sensitive and a brilliant artist. But he’s also oblivious. Which is good because Annabelle loves her job too much to risk it.
Louis hasn’t been with a woman since he was wounded in Afghanistan, remaining guarded about his body and his heart. But Annabelle is different. She keeps him grounded. Which is why protecting her—first pretending to be her husband to ward off unwanted attention, then inviting her to move in after her landlord kicks her out—feels so natural, even if it invites rampant temptation.
Try as Annabelle might, there are some desires you simply can’t shake. Louis repeatedly joke-asking her to marry him isn’t helping, especially when their unbearable attraction upgrades them to roomies with benefits. But Louis is still keeping pieces of his past to himself, leaving Annabelle to wonder if he’ll ever truly be vulnerable with her—or if she stands to lose everything.
Now, Louis and Annabelle weren't as adorably opposite as the other two couples. In fact, they fit remarkably well together even before they fit together in the physical sense. Louis can be dramatic and relentless when he wants something. Annabelle is conscientious when it comes to her job, but she still has a bit of a wild streak that complemented Louis's dramatics. (Not that he was overly dramatic, he was just very artsy. As in, with an artsy personality. What? It worked for him.)
