“Knock knock!�
“Who’s there?�
“CDZ!�
“Chloe who?�
“Chloe meet again!�
Okay that was my attempt at a knock, knock joke. If you smiled, yay!! If you didn’t, just pretend that you did. So why the knock, knock joke? Well it's because Jana Aston will be knocking on reader’s door to TRUST her that she won’t steer them in the wrong direction when it comes to her newest romantic comedy.
Who doesn’t love a good cheesy knock, knock joke? I know it may seem like grade school comedy but come on� you gotta love a heroine who is ridiculously awkward, cute, adorable and has a sense of humor. And Chloe Scott is the reason why TRUST was amazing.
“Boyd Gallagher is� something. I’m not sure what, exactly. But he’s something. �
With Sophie, Everly, and Sandra finding their happily ever afters, it leaves Chloe Scott the odd lady out. Yeah, she is the single girl in her group and so she tries to put herself out there in the dating world. And in today’s modern world of dating, it seems you have to swipe left or right. As it turns out, online dating is not easy especially if you attract all the weirdos and their PODs pictures. I’m sure you are curious what the heck POD stands for. Trust me when I tell you that the acronym that Jana came up with is genius.
So after an endless amount of PODs in her inbox, Chloe thought she met a decent guy but turns out that she can easily scare him away with a few knock, knock jokes. Who would want a guy that can be scared easily by a few corny jokes and random Google facts? Well apparently, Boyd Gallagher doesn’t scare so easily.
“And holy shit, Boyd Gallagher can make you forget. His lips can drive every single thought out of your head.�
Everly has been trying to push her best friend to go out with Boyd Gallagher, who happens to the half-brother of Sophie. Chloe has been resistant to the idea especially knowing that she met Boyd in a very awkward circumstance. To avoid Boyd telling her friends what happened, she agrees to be his fake girlfriend for a family wedding and in turn, Boyd will teach her how to act normal and be herself.
“I knew she was going to feel good, but fuck. I’m ruined for this girl. Her skin. Her scent. Her taste. The texture of her hair and the delicate flare of her hips. The tiny mole she has near her belly button. The noises she makes when I touch her. None of it contrived. Her breathing speeding up and the little cries she makes are all pure Chloe. The way her fingertips explore my body with genuine curiosity, as if she’s not the most familiar with the male form, not that she’s attempting to inflate my ego.�
It turns out when all the pressure is off on dating, Chloe is ridiculously cute, awkward, and normal. She is just a fun person to be around with. Yes, Chloe loves to spew random Google facts and take extra precautions but that is who she is. She embraces her inner weirdness. And you know who else loves her quirks? Boyd Gallagher.
Boyd finds Chloe intriguing and sexy as hell. So when they found themselves tangled in the sheets, it is up to Boyd to make Chloe trust him that this thing between them is far beyond friends with benefits. So will Chloe be able to trust Boyd with her fragile heart?
“Every kiss with Chloe is the best kiss of my life, but this one, fuck. This one will be hard to top.�
You wanna know what made TRUST so fresh, fun, and a riot of entertainment. The answer to that is simple. It’s Chloe Scott. Yes, Boyd was hot, sexy, and swoonworthy but Chloe made this book. Her vibrant personality and way of thinking was hilarious. TRUST reminded me a fresh sexy version of Sex In the City and Girls, without all the drama. So if you are looking for a book that will have you laughing out loud and have you relating with Chloe’s way of thinking then THIS IS THE BOOK for you. Jana Aston ended this series with a BANG!!!! TRUST was everything you could want for in a romantic comedy. It had sass, humor, and a colorful cast of characters. All there is left to say is prepare yourself to fall in love with Chloe, Boyd, and of course those silly knock, knock jokes.

When I read a book by Jana Aston, I know it will be entertaining, fun, fresh and hilarious. I’m notorious for reading emotional books, so when I need something light in between, Jana is a go to author for me. I love books that make me smile and laugh, characters that are fun, endearing and quirky. Trust had all that, plus donuts.
Chloe Scott is dating. All of her friends (Everly, Sophie and Sandra) all have men in their life and she’s done being on the sidelines waiting for Mr. Right. She’s going to go out there and find him. Dating isn’t as easy as it seems for Chloe. In fact, it’s down right awkward. From unsolicited POD’s, to straight up weridos, Chloe isn’t having an easy go of it.
Boyd Gallagher comes in the picture at just the right time. Chloe is about done with dating. It’s stressing her to the max. The pressure is getting to her. Boyd is just the type of guy she needs. Boyd is Sophie’s half brother and someone Everly has been trying to set Chloe up with for the longest. Ladies, trust me on this. You will love Boyd.
Seriously, Boyd won me over from the very start. I love how he sees Chloe. He loves her knock-knock jokes, he just gets her. If I didn’t mention this before, Chloe is a bit awkward, but I mean that in the best way possible. I think she is so damn cute and funny. And I love that Boyd sees that, too. Chloe and Boyding. Sigh. I just couldn’t get enough.
I seriously loved Chloe and Boyd. They were by far my favorite couple in this series. They couldn’t be more perfect for each other. Chloe’s adorable awkwardness was endearing and Boyd was just the best. Like the other books in this series, Trust is sexy, charming and laugh out loud funny. Jana truly does an amazing job with romantic comedies and I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves rom-com’s! I give it a full 5 stars, because there is nothing about it I didn’t love!

Dating is basically three hours of talking to a stranger, which is stupid, right? I don't enjoy that. I mean who enjoys that? Who? Who are those people? It's weird. Dating is weird.
Boyd Gallagher comes in the picture at just the right time. Chloe is about done with dating. It’s stressing her to the max. The pressure is getting to her. Boyd is just the type of guy she needs.

“You are the most alluring woman I’ve ever met,� he says when I release his lip. Alluring? Not awkward? That can’t be right.

4.5 Stars!!
If you are looking for your next romantic comedy, then you don’t want to miss this one. Trust me on this! This was my third book by Jana Aston and without a doubt my favorite. 'Trust' was simply fantastic, a well done romantic comedy that sucked me in from the start with its engaging story line and endearing characters. This third book in the series had a little bit of everything, which I really loved, Jana blending the sweetness, sexiness and humor really great.
Chloe Scott is a twenty-two second grade teacher. She’s single, but she really doesn’t want to be, especially since all her girlfriends are in a relationship or married. She doesn’t need a man. She really doesn’t! But she kind of wants one. The problem is dating for Chloe is the worst thing ever. She hates the concept of dating, mainly because she’s not good at it. Like at all! She tried it…multiple times and every single time it was a disaster, because Chloe is super awkward with every single one of her dates. Needless to say, dating, every kind of dating, but especially the online kind is very hard for Chloe, so she decides to take a break from it.
Chloe’s best friend, Everly, has been trying to push her to go out with Sophie’s (another friend of theirs) half-brother, but Chloe doesn’t want a date with this sexy as hell man, especially since their first encounter was so awkward on so many levels. Boyd wants to get to know Chloe better. He truly believes she’s different from any other women he met before, sexy and interesting, even if she’s nerdy and so unsure of herself. In order to get to know her better, Boyd kind of blackmails her. For Boyd to forget everything about their strange encounter, Chloe will have to spend a weekend with him for a family wedding pretending to be his girlfriend.
The dynamic between them slowly, but surely starts to change when they start spending more and more time together.
I really enjoyed this fun, sweet and sexy read! It made me smile and swoon and I had so much fun reading these characters� story. The story was entertaining and I honestly enjoyed every single aspect of this story. Both Chloe and Boyd were fun, engaging characters. Chloe was an awesome heroine. I loved her which it’s really strange since I’m not a big fan of unsure of themselves heroines. But Chloe here was endearing 100%. She was awkward, like I previously mentioned and a little weird, but here’s the thing, she accepted her weirdness, which I admired to be honest. She was a fun, sassy heroine and as the story unfolded and I got to know her better, I came to enjoy her character more and more. She truly was a vivid, adorable, relatable heroine. It goes without saying, I loved her portrayal.
Boyd was wonderful. I liked him a lot. He was sexy, charming and sweet, thoughtful and considerate and overall a fantastic guy. I loved how patient he was with Chloe at times and how he accepted her exactly how she was. He was exactly what Chloe needed in every single way.
The romance aspect was really great. I loved how these two’s relationship progressed. Nothing was rushed, everything was exciting and these two characters as a fake or real couple were sweet and lovely. I enjoyed their interactions, the sweet, awkward moments between them and of course their sexy times. These two were hot together as much as they were cute, which I loved, since everything was very nice balanced IMO.
The supporting characters were great and colorful and I loved the fun interactions between the girls.
Overall, a delightful romantic comedy!

4.5 Knock Knock Stars �
Online dating can be a complicated business and Chloe Scott knows this first-hand. If her present date ditching and getting her almost arrested is of any indication; she could use an intervention. Fortunately she is optimistic and no quitter even if the dreaded dick pics seem to be mandatory.
What would I even do with a guy like Boyd? He’s probably into crazy shit like having sex with the lights on.
FBI agent Boyd Gallagher isn't quite sure of what to make of the socially challenged Chloe. However he can't help but be amused by her awkwardness and verbal outbursts thus making him do things he normally wouldn't
"She kills me. She cannot be getting laid much, which pleases me in some ridiculously caveman way."
Boyd soon inserts himself in Chloe's life under the guise of assisting with her dating methods. It creates the perfect scenario for them to spend time together without the pressure. He quickly realizes that by removing anxiousness out of the equation, the real Chloe shines. By the time she figures out his underhanded manipulation, Boyd will be the only man reaping the rewards.
This entire series has been an absolute joyous journey and I'm sad to have finished the last book. Having read this entire series 3 times now, it never gets old. I continue to laugh, swoon and love every single moment. I gotta say that Chloe and Boyd were the perfect couple to end this series on.

Oh, don't mind me. I'm just picking some numbers out of a box over here. Maybe I'll hang them over my bookshelf as a reminder to smile. Why would that work, you ask? Well, it would remind me of the cheek-splitting grin I had while reading this book. (You'll get it when you read it. And you WILL read it.) ;)
I went into this completely blind. The synopsis was intriguing and Ms. Aston was kind enough to send me an early copy. I'd never read her before. I'm kicking myself for that now.
This is, so far, the best book I've read this year. I can't even form words. I laughed until I cried ... a number of times. My face aches from smiling so much. My swoon-er is nearly broken because Boyd is that. freaking. good.
*Swoons just thinking about it*
There's so much to love about Trust. The banter is on fire. It's smart. Witty. Entertaining. The characters are dynamic and lovable and, I mean, can I be in their friend circle, please? Can someone make that happen? I'll consider it a Christmas gift, birthday present, and Valentine's Day prezzie all wrapped up into one.
Sounds good, yeah? Well, we haven't even discussed the hot yet. And hot it is! Dear lawd have mercy! I love an alpha like I love donuts (read: unconditionally) and Boyd is AL-PHA. But he's kind. Sweet. Thoughtful. Plotting. And kind of an assh*le in all the right ways.
*Swoons again*
Male POV is on point. Comedic timing is perfection. Steam is rising you're sitting on top of a volcano.
Y'all, read this. READ. THIS. This book is crack and I want to be your dealer. I want to force-feed this to you, sit by you on the sofa and watch your emotions and nod when you look up because your a) swooning or b) laughing and say, "Yeah, what part are you on now?" And then relive it with you.
This is one of those books you're mad you can't re-read for the first time. One that you'll remember where you were when you read it and get all those warm, goose-bumpy feelings and stupid grins when you think about it and pull out your book and have to give it another read.
Because, yeah. It's like that.
In the words of Boyd and Chloe - 5 stars.

This is my favourite book in the series.
Why?
Well that's a great question.
Boyd is an FBI agent. So he has government issued handcuffs. That's a serious plus.
BUT. That's not the main reason I love this book. Chloe is the reason I love this book. Well, Chloe's anxiety is why I love this book. Let me explain that a little. Jana does a fabulous job of bringing to life the realities of an anxiety disorder. She very accurately depicts how an anxiety attack would be experienced and while there is still Jana's signature humor, there is also a much more serious undercurrent in this story, because Chloe has to overcome some serious personal obstacles to allow herself to fall in love with Boyd. Jana captured the essence of anxiety in a character and brought it to life in the sweetest, most genuine way possible.
"We're Chloe and Boyding."
That is probably the most romantic line I'll ever read in my entire life, right there. You need to read the book to understand why.
Boyd is the ultimate hero. He's patient. He's understanding. He's kinky. And he's just sweet. So, so sweet. I love him. Like if he was a real man I'd want to tell him how awesome he is. And that would just be . . . awkward.
I sincerely loved this book. All the loves. All of them at once.
It can be read as a standalone. And if you decide to read it first I urge you to go back and read the rest. You will laugh, you will swoon, you will probably break out the vibrator, and you will thank me for this recommendation (I like wine, red, cab sav).
*reviews from me are like a ping pong match, just try and follow along.

***4.5 Toc Toc, Te quiero STARS***
Ayyyyyyy... pero es que ando de un inaguantable con este libro que no tienen idea, ME ENCANTÓ. Es para mí el mejor de toda la serie.
Verán, el primer libro me pareció una gran estafa de lo malo que fue y los dos anteriores fueron bonitos pero pasables. Casi siempre el factor "S" era el que me terminaba chafando la historia. Porque a mi me gusta leer un buen romance, no miles de escenas de sexo sin sentido.
Bien, pues eso no pasa aquí. Literal, pero es que no había forma de que Chloe lo hiciera con Boyd antes de tiempo. No debido a su forma de ser. Era tan transparente y sincera además de cómica que me enamoró esa parte llena de inocencia que tenía. Aunque a veces, si que pudo ser muy cansina y repetitiva.
Boyd por otro lado... asldkalskdsal lo amo, es que fue tan alksdkalsjdlkas tan perfecto, tan paciente, tan él. Tan poli. TAN TODO. Fue impresionante.
Con una narrativa única y característica de JA y una historia más light y mucho más rómantica conocemos a estos dos personajes llenos de carisma y de paso vemos como les va a las otras parejitas de la serie.

Canoe who?
Canoe please read this book!
This book was everything I love about Jana Aston. The humor, the romance, and the sweetness was exactly what I needed and I enjoyed getting to see these two come together. Chloe was adorable and I really liked seeing her fumble through her dating life in all her awkward glory. It actually made her really relatable and also added the hilarious parts to the book.
They say that opposites attract and Boyd and Chloe are the epitome of that saying. Boyd was completely different from Chloe but he helped keep her grounded to the real world while still loving her awkwardness and random Knock Knock jokes. Trust me when I say that if you read this book you will end up loving Boyd because I don't think there's a possibility that he can be hated. He was so patient and understanding with Chloe, and it was amazing to see how he just accepted her, quirks and all.
If you haven't read this series yet than I strongly urge you to change that as soon as possible. The books can be read as standalone's but all the characters connect to one another so I definitely recommend reading all of the books, even if it's out of order.

I’ve read this intermittently for a year, but I’m finally calling it a DNF. The most frustrating thing for me is Chloé’s character, bc not only is she exhaustively vapid, being in her head is frustrating. It doesn’t help that I’m 30% into the story yet the fun and laughs are elusive.

Absolutely adorable! Another hit in this series for me. It was hilarious most of all, but also sweet and sexy. Loved Boyd and Chloe together, their banter was yummy and chemistry between them strong. Wonderful, very quick reading. I recommend!

I swear Jana Aston is one of my favorite authors, for so many reasons, but the most important one she writes my favorite type of books. All her books are super sexy, super funny, and super swoon worthy. All of her stories have pulled me and made me fall in love and Chloe’s story is no exception.
This is the fourth book Jana has written and while they are all standalone they characters all crossover. So if you haven’t read them all you can read this one, but if you have you will recognize Chloe. Chloe is Everly’s best friend from childhood and where Everly is crazy, outgoing and super confident, Chloe is more reserved.
Where Everly takes what she wants, Chloe takes a more practical approach. She is also a dating fail, but not because she isn’t beautiful, sweet and fun, but because of her anxiety. Chloe makes things awkward on accident saying whatever comes to mind. She is also a teacher so she tells some pretty horrible knock-knock jokes, but they just made me love her even more.
Boyd is Sophie’s brother and an FBI agent. Everyone has mentioned fixing these two up since Chloe has a mild obsession with agents, but when Sophie delivers her baby they finally officially meet. From the moment Boyd entered the picture I was hooked and in love with this book. I love how Boyd zoned in on Chloe’s issues and helped her overcome them. I love how he saw the real her and just absolutely fell in love.
I love a story where a guy meets a girl and just knows. It makes me believe in epic love, which I love, so the way Boyd just immediately fell for Chloe’s awkward jokes and crazy leggings just had me smiling from ear to ear.
I have loved all of Jana’s books and if you know me, you know I recommend you read them all ASAP! Every one one of her books will have you laughing out loud for real, falling in love and will leave with a huge smile on your face!

⊙⊙⊙⊙4 Doughnut Stars⊙⊙⊙⊙
Have you ever been in awkward social situations? I’m not talking about running out of things to say when you meet someone new for the first time. I’m talking about a full on “I’ve got to get the hell out here� and who’s going to save me type of situations. Getting regular POD pics (you’ll know the meaning soon enough) to getting proposition on her first date is becoming the norm for Chloe.
But being socially awkward and being set up by her friends on dates hasn’t helped but one thing you should know about her, is that she’s a trooper. And those infamous cringe worthy moments is about to go up in flames in the form of a FBI Agent. Will handcuffs be involved?
Boyd has seen his fair share of some very questionable people in his line of work but never once has he met someone as socially awkward with a quirkiness that makes him want to be around her all the time. What starts off as a favor and lesson in getting over social anxiety, quickly becomes so much more for Boyd and Chloe. But can they survive each other?
“This girl is a mess of conflicting emotions, but good things comes to those who wait. And Chloe is a good thing. A forever kind of thing.
I’ve said it before and I’m going to say it again.. I LOVE this series! It’s like covering up with your favorite blanket and watching a movie. You feel at peace and comforted and that’s the feeling I get when I read these books. Boyd was smart, sexy, and patient which I loved. He understood Chloe’s quirks and he never tried to change anything about her and I admired that about him.
Now as for Chloe, that girl was something else. There’s no other explanation for her but I loved the fact that she was different. From her knock knock jokes to her friendships with Everly and Sophie, she was the perfect best friend and she knew Boyd was someone worth getting to know and spending time with.
If you’ve follow this series then you’re going to be freakin ecstatic because we get to see what the whole gang has been up to and if you thought Everly was a riot in “Right�, then you’re in for a treat with this girl. This series is HIGHLY recommended.

Seriously this story couldn’t be cuter what a fun little read this story is! I adored how Boyd Gallagher lures anxiety ridden Chloe Scott into a relationship with him.
[image error]
This story is light, sweet, sexy, funny as hell, and most definitely hit the spot.
”You’re dating Boyd.� I think I’m going to throw up. “You might even be engaged,� Everly continues. “For all I know.�

Jana Aston just made my day. This story is so freaking cute that I giggled—actually giggled like a schoolgirl—my way through the first chapter of Trust. That led to full-out laughing out loud and swooning throughout the rest of the book. In the end, I wound up with sore cheeks from smiling so much.
Chloe is absolutely adorkable. Her numerous dating disasters are cringe-worthy and hysterical. She takes the prize as the most socially awkward, anxiety-ridden, yet lovable character in recent memory. Like, we’re total besties now.
Could Boyd be any more perfect? The correct answer is no. No, he could not. Sexy and clever, Boyd just gets Chloe. He accepts her quirks, is strategic in his wooing of her, and is patiently persistent. Chloe is a little freaky in the bedroom, and Boyd is more than happy to accommodate her curiosity. I want to marry him. Him and his FBI-issued handcuffs of course.
Chloe’s girlfriends are a hoot. Trust is only the second book I’ve read in the Wrong series, but each book stands alone. I really want to go back read the first two books though� and —so I can get more of this colorful group of women.
Trust is a pleasure to read from beginning to end, and it’s especially wonderful if you’re looking for a super fast read. It’s romantic comedy perfection with an entertaining plot, hilariously endearing characters, and some steamy sexy times.

4* one more favor STARS!!
Jana Aston said this is the last book from WRONG series. I'm quite sad because it's starting to get better. Everly's friend, Chloe is the last person on this train who will meet her future someone. Surprisingly, I enjoyed it very much.
Chloe Scott must the most socially awkward person in the Philadelphia. She has numerous unsuccessful date journey. As a teacher for second grade, Chloe didn't socialize much. Beside Everly, Sandra and Sophie are her friends. Misfortune from the last date, bring Chloe to the FBI agent, Boyd Gallagher whose apparently Sophie's half-brother. From asking a favor to become his fake date? Why not, Chloe. This could be her dating lesson and she's eager to learn from Boyd.
I think I'm 99% like Chloe. Awkward, but not adorkable. She is. When her anxiety came, she couldn't stop talking, especially with her dry jokes. Ha ha ha... I also liked how pervert she is. I mean, she isn't prude and open-minded with sexuality. Chloe is just a ordinary woman with cop fetish. She really loves crime TV series. And when she found Boyd, oh boy...
Is Boyd too-good-to-be-true? Mostly yes. He seems suspicious at first when asked Sophie as his fake date. He's a stranger to me even he's close Sophie, I didn't know much about him. But when Chloe is starting to ask about him, Boyd didn't hesitant to answer. He's very open person also cool as a cucumber. Maybe because he's FBI agent? Even Boyd came from rich family, he isn't a show-off. He works outside the family because he enjoy it. Another plus for him. There is no dirty laundry about him.
I enjoyed their chemistry. Honestly, I'm envy them. Maybe Boyd is the only chance for Chloe to get a boyfriend. Their togetherness was delightful. I loved his sudden possessiveness; not as a control freak. It seems Chloe and Boyd is the least aggressive couple. When it came to sex, they're really HOT. Complementing each other without over-the-top. They're also like to do 'sexy experiment'.
The story was told from 2 POVs. I really adored both Chloe and Boyd. There is no drama. Just... let it flow. There is no pressure in their relationship. They're very cool person. I know the sex came late, but I'm satisfied with the result. They're need to develop feelings; not insta-everything. To make sure they're really into each other. Overall, it was a great read and enjoyable until the end.

“We’re not doing anal,� I inform him. “Not with this,� I add,...
“Wait, was anal on the table?�
“I’m really curious about it,� I admit, “but not with that thing.� I nod at his monster dick.

What am I doing when you’re thinking about me?�
“Anything. Everything. Sometimes you’re on your knees sucking me off. Sometimes you’re taking a shower while I watch.� Her chest rises. She likes that. “Sometimes I’m pulling your hair”—her eyes widen at that—“and sometimes you’re lying on my bed, asking me to come on your tits.�
“Would you do that?�...
“Do what?�
“Come on me.�
“Is that an invitation?�
“Yes.� She nods. “I want you to. I want to watch.�

4 POD Stars
"That’s what dating looks like. Men messaging and asking if I want to fuck them with a strap-on. I think it’s me. I attract weirdos.�
This book was exactly what I needed at exactly the right time. Was it 5 Star awesomeness? Not quite, but the fact it put a smile on my face at a time when I simply didn't think that was possible means it gets a huge thumbs up from me.
Chloe and Boyd bring the same irreverence mixed with heat as the other couples in the series but this story has the added benefit of low to no angst. That doesn't always work for me but the timing couldn't have been more perfect for me in this instance.
My only complaint is that I'd like to read something a little outside the box from this author. This series features four couples, all with wealthy established men and 10ish plus years younger women who're still figuring things out. I'm down for something new at this point!
That being said, I still enjoyed the hell out of this book and can't wait to see what this author offers up next.

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.

5 'Chloe and Boyding' STARS
This was one hilarious read and what a way to wrap up a series! For fans of Jana's, you won't be disappointed.
Chloe is simply one original yet adorably quirky heroine. I don't want to spoil any of the Boyd and Chloe fun but what I will say is these two are so cute together. Hilarious, like LOL moments and some of the one liners and corny jokes out of Chloe's mouth had me howling on the train on the way into work. Yes, I got a few 'I'd like to be reading what she's reading' looks.
Boyd is Sophie's half brother, the FBI agent. Va-va-voom. I just adored him and what I loved the most was that Jana didn't give us your typical manwhore hero tamed by the socially awkward good girl. Nope. Boyd's the perfect one! I don't mean that in a roll your eyes, he's too much kind of way. He's just mature, confident, giving,hot and considerate....and did I mention hot?
And it was super fun to have Everly, Sawyer, Sophie and Luke in this one. Everly is a hoot! I totally can tell why she and Chole are BFFs. Thanks Jana for this wonderful series and for putting a perma grin on my face!

"4 Stars"
What a lovely reading....
I enjoyed this book a lot...It was a funny and sweet book, with a lot of awkward moments on Chloe's part and a lot of patient moments on Boyd's part...And some second grade "knock, knock jokes" to complete this couple...
"Who's there??"
"I love."
"I love who?"
"I love you too".
It was an easy reading without drama and two realistic people... Although I think Chloe was over doing it with her anxiety and overthinking, she did every time she thought about dating. I enjoyed her inner crazy monologues and her obsession with murderer cases and Criminal Minds...And Boyd was a hot fed who loved her jokes, awkwardness and her fetish with anything new that she hadn't try like handcuffs and dirty talking and life-alerting orgasms... Boyd specialty!!!
I laughed a lot with Chloe's dates because she was a magnet to all the weirdos out there...But also a true story for all the girls out there who are trying dating websites...
Overall a great story with a lovable couple...Too many jokes...A lot of patience...And some hot sex!
Enjoy! xxx

I enjoyed it very much.
I gave this book 4 stars because Chloe is realistic. Her insecurities, her anxiety, are real and usually never talked or explored in romance novels this way.
To be honest, the story in general is nothing out of this world, nothing to remember. Just one more romantic story, light, charming and fun, nothing to write home about, or even to remember in a few month, but entertaining to read. However, it is a 4 stars for me because, I guess, in this instance, I could see myself, I could identity with the protagonist which never happens for me. Even when the actual story is gone from my mind, I´ll be able to remember that the protagonist was real to me.

Loved this story of the nerdy, anxious and bumbling school teacher Cloe Scott who falls for her friends brother, FBI agent Boyd after he arrests her when she attends a sporting event with a wanted con-man. Boyd has an attraction to Cloe so he attempts to get close to her and earn her trust by making up favors that Cloe owes him in return for keeping quiet about how they met from Cloe's friends. Both of these characters were so lovable and hilarious, I loved cloe's over thinking brain and how Boyd was so patient and tender with her. The sex was Hot and the story line crazy just like their relationship. Narrated by Lance Greenfield and the brilliant Erin Mallon.

Cute funny sexy read.
I actually liked both characters. H was almost perfect :-)
Chloe was a bit unsure, but she was young (22), so it worked (she didn’t annoyed me)
It didn’t bother me that the 1st sex scene was about at 60%, the story was still hot and captivating.
Safe
Looking forward to the next book!

Entertaining read about a socially awkward heroine, Chloe, trying to find love. There wasn't much of a plot or drama, just a cruise through her experiences and watching her figure it out when she does meet her one true love. I liked Chloe's inner thoughts and ramblings, although sometimes it did frustrate me at times. Boyd, the hero (who's Sophie's half brother) had a good handle of things as soon as he realised there was more to Chloe and i liked that about him. No push/pull, no unwanted drama, he just stood by waiting as Chloe sorted through her own emotions.
Simple, sweet with almost no drama- this was a light and fun read.

This was brilliant
Chloe is finding the dating world quite hard if it's not men sending dick pics it's men leaving in the middle of sex so Ye u could say it not goin well an then add that she gets a lil anxious it just doesn't mix well but when she meets Boyd things don't really get better she meet him under crazy circumstances but she help but find him super sexy and wouldn't mind seeing a dick pic from him
Boyd is a Fed and is Sophie's brother she he knows a few of her friends but never really meet them so when he meets Chloe like I said in crazy circumstances he can't help but finds her interesting an very attractive and then put her in her tight leggings Ye he really does want some but he finds that things are not goin to be easy getting with Chloe but he is up for the challenge
I really enjoyed this book it's my favourite from this series I luvd Chloe's character very much she is so funny with her jokes and babbling when nerves she had me laugh through most of the book and Boyd was just great the way he was with Chloe was so cute they were totally opposite but he just gave her space when she didnt even know she needed it and this just made me luv him these are just brilliant together and very hot OMG they were so good once they started they could stop
I 've really enjoyed this series an I highly recommend it I would read them in order even though they can b read as a standalone but al the characters are in the books an there story carry on a lil so it would work better but u won't b disappointed it's a really good series I m gutted its over xxx
Luv this cover

Super cute book! Chloe was a shy, socially awkward elementary teacher who came up with knock knock jokes when she was nervous.
Boyd, a playboy FBI agent was incredibly sweet while being a bit of a jerk. He picked on Chloe like a preschooler would when they pull the girls pig tails. It was adorable.
I loved these two together. With his confidence and playful flirting paired with her awkwardness, made for a fun book. The way these two got together and how they ran into each other a couple times were seriously funny.
This was a completely safe story with no other woman drama or violence. Just a fun sexy read!

4 "I want my own Boyd" stars
Jana Aston won me everytime when I read her books! The delicious humour she brings, the sweet and very very hot scenes, the parts of reality that every book have, I just can't get enough!
This is the last book from this series, sadly , because I LOVED every book in the series, every character and their own story. The different development in each book and how connected they are. I know that whenever I feel like reading something that would make me laugh and giddy and hot and happy - I can find it in her books!
Chloe & Boyds book was special to me because on many levels I connected with the heroine. The questions she asked herself and the doubts about whether this or that is right to do, I think every girl has a stage in her life when those things are on her mind. I loved that she was so sweet and kind and funny and quirky! She doubted herself but whe she felt comfortable with Boyd she was the funniest and sarcastic in the best way.
Boyd was a very patient, very sexy, very sweet alpha male whom I fell in love with. FBI agent is my new favourite kind of man ( heheheh! ). He felt that Chloe was special, so he worked hard to win her over. I just loved how he wanted to make her feel safe with him, how he wanted to help her forgetting the doubts and just be herself without overthinking. He was charming in a way that you want to go out and run until you find a man like him because who wouldn't want a man who wants to give you all the fucks , all the love and security you want?! He was that kind of man!
I am sad that it's over for these couples, but I am looking forward to read more and more by this fantastic author!

- Knock, knock�
- Who’s there?
- Four.
- Four who?
- Four stars for you!
4 PODS + Second Grade Jokes Stars!!!
Jana Aston did it again. A novel full of romance, hilarious moments and a pair you couldn’t help yourself but love.
Chloe is the silent type. The one that casually sits in the corner offering a few words only if asked, the stand-by-your-side friend, the one that feels more comfortable surrounded by 8 yo than adults, the one that over-analyzes everyone and everything. I’ve never been inside such a person’s mind before and to say I was shocked by the constant gab and mumble is an understatement.
At first I didn’t know if I wanted to laugh at the absurdity of it or cry for her helplessness to act normal at any given circumstance. That date with Joe………………Total disaster.
She so reminded me of Ginnifer Goodwin’s character in the “He’s just not that into you� movie. She was my favorite character in that movie (I haven’t read the book, which now that I think about it is such a same).
Anyway, I think Boyd was just the right person for her and the way he saw right through her and her insecurities from the start, made me like him even more. It’s a pity we didn’t get much of his backstory with L-O-V-E because from his POV it was love at first sight and it felt kind of rushed and unjustified.
And of course I can’t not mention Everly who is appearing only a little in this book but she is her ever charming and meddling self.
- Who’s there?
- Four.
- Four who?
- Four stars for you!

** Sighs ** is this book the best of the serie? yES
While the first were too weird for my taste (and I literally read anything), this one definitely wasn't. The writing style felt totally different. I really liked both protagonists, loved how it all started, there was more focus in their relationship and I felt a little identified with Chloe, who doesn't like criminal minds?
My only problem is that sometimes they treated Chloe like a kid and the drama at the end was dumb.
If you want a fun and light read, this book is for you!

This story was a breath of fresh air. I have to admit that I'm one of those readers who love stories with lots of conflict between the hero and the heroine. The more insurmountable those conflicts are, the more I love it.
Trust has none of those, and yet, I found myself swooning over this book. I finished this in one sitting and had the silliest smile on my face right after. Why? Well two reasons: Chloe Scott and Boyd Gallagher.
I fell for these two as individual characters and as a couple. I adored Chloe Scott. She's lovely, sweet but socially awkward. Painfully so. She exhibits her anxiety by telling knock, knock jokes which were so horrible, it was hilarious. I immediately connected with her character and wanted her to be happy and have her prince and her happily ever after.
And the perfect PERFECT man for that job was Boyd Gallagher. I have a confession to make. I barely remembered Boyd from book one. He didn't really register on my radar until this book. And boy, did he register. He's probably my most favorite Jana Aston hero ever. He's sweet and considerate of Chloe's issue's had me melting like a puddle of goo. Gah! He was perfect.
Loved their "courtship". I know that sounds horribly outdated but that's kind of how Boyd won Chloe over. He courted her without her even knowing it. He's so sweet and so sneaky. Lol. I loved how he was always mindful about Chloe's social awkwardness.
And while this book doesn't have an ounce of angst or even a real conflict really, I still enjoyed it very, very much simply because I fell in love with the characters. And once that happens, my enjoyment is secure.
Jana Aston has shown such an improvement over the course of 3 and 1/2 books that I'm just so excited to see what else she can do as an author. I for one, am looking forward to reading more stories by her.
