Zane: A Friends With Benefits/Curvy Girl Romance (The Bad Boys of Saddle Creek)
Emmy
I am a walking nerdy girl cliche. Smart? Check! On the spectrum? Check! Awkward? Check! Virgin? Check! The only nerdy-girl box I don’t check is “friendless.” That’s because I have the coolest best friend ever—Zane. Everyone in town thinks Zane is just a hot, bad boy inkslinger, but I know better. With me, he’s kind, sensitive and thoughtful. I know he doesn’t see me as anything more than a friend, but when I decide it’s time to lose my virginity so I can finally date and find love, he’s the only man I can imagine asking for help.
Zane
Emmy thinks we’re just friends, but I know better. I’ve been in love with her for damn near half my life. Until now, I could be satisfied being just her best friend. But now that I know she’s ready for a physical relationship with a man, all bets are off. She wants help losing her virginity so she‘ll be comfortable dating some super geek she works with? Fine. I will take her V-card, but I plan on ruining her for other men.

I only picked this because I'm in a A to Z contest and needed a fast read that started with the letter Z, but I really liked this book. I really loved the relationship between Emmy, the neurodivergent virgin, and Zane, the pierced and tattooed sweetheart. I just wish it were longer. I'm going to check out the rest in the series.
