All of the fun, none of the heartache…as long as they stick to the agreement.
If ER nurse Claire Harper and her roommate, firefighter Graham Scott, are still single by the time they’re forty, they’ll take the proverbial plunge together…as friends with benefits. Maybe it’s the wine, but in the moment, Claire figures the pact is a safe-enough deal, considering she hasn’t had much luck in love and he’s in no rush to settle down. Like, at all. Besides, there’s no way she could ever really fall for Graham and his thrill-seeking ways. Not after what happened to her father…
Just as things begin to heat up way before the proposed deadline, Graham’s injured in a serious rock climbing accident—and he needs Claire’s help to heal. She’ll do whatever it takes to nurse him back to health…even if it means moving in to Graham’s bed and putting up with his little dog, who hates her. But with this no-strings arrangement taking a complicated turn, keeping “for now” from turning into “forever” isn’t as easy as they’d planned.

I'm entering back into my audio era as life just seems to get busier and busier. I saw this on my library's app with no hold and immediately said yes based on the description. The Roommate Pact is a romcom about roommates Claire, an ER nurse, and Graham, a firefighter. This book is full of tension and forced proximity goodness. It's friends with benefits but there were also moments that made me kind of emotional. Overall I really loved it and it was a quick read while doing things around the house. It is single narration, and while I prefer dual or multi narration, I still thought this was well done. The Roommate Pact is an adult romance, 18+ for sexual content.
4.25/5
Claire and Graham - the people I hoped would get together and they did spectacularly.
I love this book and their story. They both have baggage they have to deal with but, they help each other, unknowingly. I LOVED Graham's emails and how he learned to open up and trust someone like that. And Claire's fight with herself and her inner demons was fascinating and I'm glad that she got there in the end. They both deserved to be happy.
When Claire found out about a firefighter being injured and her mind went straight to Graham - I felt that. it was amazing. And his reaction?? And THAT KISS? Oh, it was hot. The book was so well-written and realistic and I loved it.
