There's no way she's tough enough to get me into shape.

Mel: K. I'll marry you but no sex.

Me: Nice. Need 2 know 1 more thing.

Mel: ?

Me: Your name?

Mel: Melanie Sanders

Me: Can I call you Mel?

Mel: No!

Me: K, C U later, Mel

When my physical therapist's ex locks her out and takes everything she owns, I want to help. However, a recent, unfortunate incident has social media all over me. Risking all, I offer her cold, hard, cash but she refuses, suggesting I'm trying to buy her sexual favors.

Now she's got this ridiculous idea she can get back on her feet with a wedding. A fake marriage might be just the thing to sweeten my side of a million-dollar deal so I agree. Everything would've worked out fine except for her sweet baby-blues. The minute they focus on me, I'm never letting her go.

Note: This series contains heated scenes, swearing, no cheating, and hard-won, happily-ever-afters.

This one really surprised me, I was thinking it would be really light and fluffy. It however delivers on feelings, chemistry and amazing characters trying their hardest to overcome the problems life has thrown at them. Both have been placed in such hard places in their lives but are clearly not giving up.

Such an amazing start to the series.

Fantastically amazing

Melanie returns home to find herself locked out of her apartment by her now ex-boyfriend and not only is she homeless he won’t give her back her belongings. C.J. is a professional football player with an injured knee who is dealing with his own PR nightmare and Mel’s new client.

They decide that a fake engagement would help them both out as Melanie would have somewhere to live and CJ’s reputation would be improved by a sweet Iowa fiancée. As they spend time together, they become close however there are secrets in Melanie’s past that could destroy everything.

This is beginning of Melanie an CJ’s story and it ends with a happy for now. I received a complimentary copy of the audiobook and enjoyed the tone and inflection of the narrator’s voice.

C.J. and Mel!

But it left me wanting more. When a couple resolves their issues, I like to have a happy wrap up of the story.

This book may trigger some individuals due to the issue of molestation but it could also helps others heal.

Very good story

Good enjoyable storyline. There’s nothing like a bad boy helping a damsel in distress. Good chemistry between these characters. Excellent performance from Jonathan.

Great

Very entertaining fake engagement story, following CJ and Mel, both being weighted down by their past or past mistakes and their slow realisation that it is no longer fake. Enjoyed it very much, the interaction between them is funny, hot and steamy.
The narrator does an excellent job bringing all characters to life.
