Never Have I Ever Gone Skinny Dipping


"Never Have I Ever Gone Skinning Dipping" by Riley Hart was
originally published in the fifth volume of the Heart2Heart anthology (alongside Lucy Lennox's "Welcome To Knockwood"--I'm accidentally keeping with the theme here ;) ). 

["Mickey Boring has always felt like his life is…well, boring. He’s a little shy, a little nerdy, a librarian who loves books—not real cool, in his opinion. The only exciting thing about him is the fact that he’s a secret writer of spicy stories who lives out his fantasies in the stories he pens. Oh and he loves writing those things in public—at a coffeehouse to be exact, owned by his crush, Ronan Winters.

When Mickey gets the prompt Never Have I Ever, on a message board, he knows exactly how he wants to end that sentence…Never Have I Ever Gone Skinny-Dipping…to live out a missed opportunity from eight years ago. And he’s determined that Ronan Winters is the man he’s going to get to go with him.

Mickey just has to figure out how to ask him first. No big deal, right?
]

This book was soooooo cute! D: Mickey was a hot mess, all blushes and stampering words. Ronan was just hot, all--well, just picture a Fabio-type person, all tan and fit and confident and practically perfect. They were a odd match (on the outside--but this match is pretty typical for the genre (and for a good reason)), but they clicked and it was easy (once they let their guards down) and it was fun (once Mickey could figure out how to talk) and it was fate (once Ronan told Mickey who he was--or who he had been).
