## Description

"I've never laughed out loud so many times while reading just to turn around and melt into a puddle of swoon juice from all the steamy sweetness Kate packed in between the brilliant sight gags and hilarious banter in this book. It might just be the best $3.99 I've ever spent." -B.B. Easton, author of 44 Chapters About 4 Men An desertcart TOP 30 Bestseller! Strike One-My mother named me Theodore after her favorite chipmunk. Not cool, Mom. I‘ve spent most of my life answering to Teddy, because I couldn’t make Theo work. Except for here. College. The place where all bets are off, and I’ve managed to redeem myself. There’s only one problem, my new roommate, Troy, is football royalty and looks like he stepped off the set of an Abercrombie shoot. Doesn’t matter, I cook a mean breakfast for his panty parade, and we get along well. And anyway, this year I got the girl. And she’s perfect. That’s right. Theodore Houseman, former band geek, now marching band rock star has finally landed the girl of his dreams. Everything is perfect. That is, until Troy takes a good look at her. I’m not going down without a fight. As a matter of fact, I’m not going down at all. As glorious as these days may be for my all-star roommate, Laney is my end game. I may not know much about play strategy, but I’ve been the good guy my whole life. I’ve been listening and I know exactly what women want. Framed in a picture standing next to me, Troy may seem like Mr. Perfect, but he’s underestimating the guy on the right. Spoiler alert: In this story, the underdog is going to win. The Underdogs Series Reading order #1 The Guy on the Right #2 The Guy on the Left #3 The Guy in the Middle *Though all books in The Underdogs Series can be read as stand-alone novels, it's highly suggested you read them in order as all three stories interconnect, and book three has a extended series epilogue.

Review: My favourite book of 2019 - The Guy on the Right by Kate Stewart 5 stars!! "We’re polar opposites in some ways. I’m too country, and he’s a whole lot of everything else. We shouldn’t fit, but we do, and our fit is nothing short of spectacular." One of my favourite books from Kate Stewart is her romantic dramedy, Anything But Minor. Seeing a different side to Kate Stewart's writing was like a breath of fresh air and after many of her trademark angstathons, she has delivered yet another romantic dramedy winner. I still can't believe that it eclipsed ABM for me. The Guy on the Right is hilarious, yet has the perfect balance of swoon, hot and I mean hot dances between the sheets, one of the best and hottest first kisses EVER, a little angst, a few tears both in laughter and upset, and one of the best endings. This book had EVERYTHING. "We made love, as cheesy as it sounds, but there isn’t another word for it, not at all. It wasn’t sex, and it was far too intimate to be f***ing. Well, maybe the third or fourth time could be considered f***ing. Those were more porn than promise, but neither of us had any objections." Theo is one of those heroes that you will champion along from the very beginning. He is not your typical jock, but a man with heart and soul. Brought up with three sisters, this man has women down pat, their behaviour, their temperament, their feisty attitudes and definitely their ways of thinking. The one thing he hasn't mastered though is his own relationships with women. He thought he had the one, but alas, had his heart trampled and he has been reticent to try again since. When a chance encounter with Laney happens, the world as Theo knows it is turned on its axis, for the better. Laney is one of my favourite heroines ever. If this woman was a piece of rock, she would have Texas running right through her. She is sassy, she says what she thinks, she is honest to a fault and has absolutely no filter, which only makes her all the more lovable. She works hard and plays harder. Until she met Theo. Laney may have a gypsy heart, but Theo is just the man to give her a reason to plant roots. "She’s a second look kind of girl. The first look at her is for simple appreciation for the stunner she is. The second look is a realization of what an idiot you were for not looking longer the first time around." Theo knows he is batting way above his league, but for these two, it just didn't matter. They clicked. Friends first, these two just gelled and became the best of friends and seeing this friendship develop was in itself a story. Friends to lovers is one of my favourite tropes and give me an underdog to root for, you can bet that I will be their biggest supporter, but Theo made this a no brainer. "We’re in the middle of the f***ing woods with a rubber slingshot. And don’t think for one second I won’t toss you in front of me at the first sign of danger, because I’m not that guy. You will die first." I was championing these two along from the very start, and while Laney usually goes for the bad boys, the fly by nights, like Theo's roommate, Troy, Laney finally sees the other side and wonders what in the hell took her so long. This is no instalove, it takes time for Laney's eyes to open and see the perfect specimen in front of her, but the fall, OMG the fall. Kate Stewart delivers BIG STYLE! I had a permagrin while reading this book, had a stitch through laughing and while it isn't all plain sailing (of course where is the fun in that) the angst that is thrown in was well delivered, tear-inducing and made the make up all the better. "If I’m completely honest, I’ve been falling for him in pieces since the night we met. And for the first time since we started the relationship, I’m unsure if I’m worthy of such a gift. The gift of knowing him, of seeing him this way, of being on this side of his affection." The Guy on the Right is the perfect summer read. This book will make you feel good, it will brighten the gloomiest of days and with a nod to the southern women's bible, Steel Magnolias, there is many a one-liner that will have you crying with laughter in the best way possible. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
Review: I'd take The Guy on the Right any day of the week... - I can honestly admit that I nearly gave up on The Guy on the Right. It was NA College at its finest...which unfortunately, left me tut-tutting and shaking my head in all of my old lady glory. These characters got up to crazy shenanigans and acted recklessly as normal college-aged students do. The older I get, the further I am away from the memories of those good old days and that craziness has lost its appeal. But as the story progressed and I got to know the characters better, I came to love what was below the surface. Theo and Laney have ghost pains and love wounds to compare when they meet for the first time. Neither of them is looking for the love of their lives and are very hesitant to trust the opposite sex. The best part of their relationship is that it started out as friendship. They were able to be open with each other and establish a natural conversation without the pressures of lusty lustiness. Theo was attracted to Laney from the beginning but didn't want it to be one-sided as she had put him in the friend-zone. With time their connection grew stronger and neither of them could deny the zing between them. Kate Stewart has treated us to a very funny, sweet, sexy and heartwarming story. The characters came to life for me and I loved getting to know them better and seeing their growth from beginning to end. Like I mentioned above, at first, I thought it was going to be all about the shenanigans but as the story progressed, I loved seeing the deeper side to the characters. When Theo and Laney eventually take their relationship to the next level...IT WAS HOT!!!!! I laughed, sniffled, sighed and squirmed reading The Guy on the Right and by the end I was questioning if there was even a guy on the left or any other guy for that matter. Theo was a fantastic hero but he wasn't perfect. He does an absolutely knumbskully thing towards the end and I was absolutely SHOCKED! He should have trusted his heart and he nearly paid the penalty for his silly insecurities. But, that just made him human and he definitely made up for it BIG TIME. Laney was funny and I loved it when she finally acknowledged Theo's attractiveness. It was almost like if she admitted it, she'd have to give him up. They were perfect together. If you're a fan of Kate Stewart you will absolutely LOVE The Guy on the Right. If you're a fan of NA College, I highly recommend giving this one a go. I'm not normally a fan of this genre, but I had to make an exception for Ms Stewart. I knew she'd get it right, well, I knew after the first 30% (sorry for doubting your abilities Ms Stewart) that she'd have me loving these characters by the end. Theo is the kind of hero every girl should dream of and Laney is the heroine we all wish we could be a little like. I highly recommend reading The Guy on the Right and I can't wait for more from this author.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ believe all the reviews
*by D***F on August 18, 2026*

Well believe the good ones. This was light hearted. It was AMAZING banter. I live for it. Truly. I mean who hasn’t read Kate Stewart before ? Her usual stuff leans more towards a heavier side.. this was light hearted and something I’d expect from college students. I can’t wait to continue reading The series.
