From New York Times & Wall Street Journal bestselling author Aurora Rose Reynolds comes a brand new romantic comedy about a girl who understands how short life is, and a man who quickly learns there are things way more important than money.
I had no idea that taking a temp job for the summer would send my life into a tailspin, but that’s exactly what happened when I started working for Jace Ellis.
One day I was his secretary and the next I was sitting on his private plane, wearing an obnoxiously large engagement ring, after he asked me if I would pretend to be his fiancé for one week.
I can admit that greed got the best of me. But the money he offered in exchange for my lie would help not only me, but my mom out tremendously.
I just had no idea what I was actually getting myself into.
I didn’t think about the fact that we would be sharing a bed, that we would have to pretend to like each other, and I sure didn’t know that I would be surrounded by his entire family at their annual family reunion.
But if the guy want’s a fiancé, I’m going to be the best one he’ll ever have.
I just hope I can remember that this isn’t forever; it’s for never.
This is a new stand alone by this author. It is a fake relationship trope, boss/employee and I admit those are not my favorite. However, this author writes some stellar books so I was all in on this one.
I loved Penny. I loved her heart. I loved her spirit. I loved her compassion. I loved her best friend. We see a lot of Penny in the book. Her name is at the top of each chapter--her POV. I didn't see any chapters with Jace's name or POV. All said--Penny makes the book for me.
I wasn't sure what Jace's change of heart was about. I understood the arrangement and why he needed Penny to fool his family. I didn't understand where he was coming from after being so grumpy with her and then kissing her to pieces. There was no conversation about his feelings toward her until much later in the book.
Well written book. I just wasn't on board with the chemistry between these two. Interesting secondary characters that I would love to see more about. No my favorite by this author but an ok read.
