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: Fun story - I adore Theo & enjoyed Laney for the most part. This story was SUPER fun & cute (except for the SOB - seemingly obligatory breakup, which I did not jive with) & I'm happy that both Theo's roommates are getting future stories! These two have an adorable meet cute, and then an equally adorable second meeting. They just click right away as friends & build that friendship throughout most of the story. They hang out & do all sorts of fun things (& Laney's crazy antics get them in a spot of trouble a time or two) & really get to know each other (while still feeling a sense of mystery). It was funny & sweet & if only their time apart hadn't been quite so ... whatever it was about it that I didn't like ... this would have been a 5+! Still, I enjoyed it, as I said, and will read the other connected stories when they come out!! : ) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,023,277 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,709 in Romantic Comedy (Books) #1,777 in New Adult & College Romance (Books) #36,135 in Literature & Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 6,950 Reviews | ## Images ![The Guy on the Right (The Underdogs) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61K8kn5ifyL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love, love, loved this! *by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2022* Theo is very experienced when it comes to women. He has three sisters and has seen and heard anything and everything. From periods, first loves and the hormonal ups and downs. He is now at college and shares a house with a guy who pretty much has a revolving door to his bedroom. No repeat appearances and Theo is usually the guy counseling the conquests in the morning at the breakfast table. He will never comprehend how a guy treats girls like that and why they put themselves through it.Theo has been in love before, deeply in love with his long term girlfriend who he adored. He is the kind of guy any girl would be lucky to have as their one but sadly his heart was broken and it has hardened his heart a little bit. Trust is huge for him and doesn’t want to go through something like that again. However, fate has other plans for him, he just doesn’t know it yet.Laney has recently come out of a relationship and plans to stay clear of guys for a while, especially the pretty boys. She needs some time out from dating and just enjoy being single for a while. She meets Theo at a frat party one night whilst she is puking in the garden and on his shoes. They share a conversation in the dark that will most likely be the only time their lives will cross paths. It is a moment she will always remember.Well, turns out their paths do cross again and this is just the beginning of a wonderful friendship. Theo has never met a girl like Laney, she is fun, spontaneous and no day with her is the same. She definitely keeps him on his toes, there is never a dull moment. I love how she brings him out of his comfort zone, multiple times! Laney is enjoying being with a guy who is so in tune to her and without expectations of anything other than friendship.However, something is brewing between them and I just knew that once they got to that point of realization that it was going to be freaking amazing. What I loved about this is that they had months of friendship where they got to know each other's minds and then eventually their hearts. Laney is a girl that Theo never thought would willingly choose him. Theo is a guy that Laney wouldn’t normally date but she is so so glad she resisted other temptations and chose him.There is so much more to this story that I haven’t even touched on and I laughed out loud so many times. I loved the banter between them and how they just seamlessly became the most gorgeous couple. If you are wanting to read a story that makes you believe in love and happy ever after then this is it. Love, love, loved this! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My favourite book of 2019 *by D***C on Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2019* The Guy on the Right by Kate Stewart5 stars!!"We’re polar opposites in some ways.

It was cute, quirky, and hit all the right places. I didn’t think I’d like it one bit and the synopsis made me dislike the book from the start. But it was fantastic. I laughed, I got heated in more ways than one, I swooned, I cheered, and boy did I cry. Always so thankful Kate shares a piece of her with each book she writes. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.es/products/148272132-the-guy-on-the-right-the-underdogs](https://www.desertcart.es/products/148272132-the-guy-on-the-right-the-underdogs) --- *Product available on Desertcart Spain* *Store origin: ES* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
