About this listen

I hate my boss. Like, loathe him. Two years ago, he semi-broke my heart and he still doesn’t remember who I am. Okay so I was covered in electric blue body paint, and wearing a wig, but is that a good excuse to not remember the girl you said was your destiny?

Now I’m stuck working for the jerk because only he can give me the job I really want—manager of his hotel.

When he needs a fake fiancé for business reasons, there’s an easy solution—blackmail. He has to give me a trial run as hotel manager in return for wearing his ring.

It’s a perfect plan until he remembers when we first met.

Things suddenly shift and now he’s looking at me with eyes that see straight through to the real me, touching me with hands that make me weak and kissing me with a mouth that threatens to do things to me they don’t even talk about in movies.

There’s just one wrinkle. I don’t trust him not to break my heart again.

A standalone marriage pact romance from USA Today bestselling author Louise Bay.

I wish Louise could write a book every week!

Since listening to Louise Bay books a few years ago I find myself looking for another book to bridge the gap. This book was as always a lovely contemporary romance, fun with a few twists- I hope the next instalment of this group of friends doesn’t take long ❤️

A fun book

This was such a fun book.
I loved Jules and Leo’s meet-cute. I felt it really set the scene for them going forward. I loved that this was kind of different take on grumpy-sunshine, where she is the grump but only with him. We see them really connecting, and her easing off a little bit on the grumpiness towards him. We see her questioning if it’s the same guy because she sees that other side of him. It is so good. And he gets to see her excel, but she’s also seeing his interactions and understanding that actually this was a little bit deeper than what she thought. There are some great spicy scenes and chemistry between them. But I really loved how they connected as human beings.

It’s performed in dual by Erin Mallon and Shane East. I love Erin Mallon, and she does not disappoint with this book. Not only does she have the best male voice, but on top of that, it’s a British male voice. The sweet spot for me with Erin is always going to be romcom, I really feel she excels at it. She just has this amazing comedic timing and hitting those beats. And even in those moments where it wouldn’t necessarily have been funny but the way she performed it just gives it that something extra. I absolutely adored that about the performance but also those emotional moments. And Erin as a grumpy character just made me chuckle as she is one of the most sunshineist people you could meet, and the way she had us believing she was grumpy. Chef’s kiss. Shane was really fun in this. I love that kind of vulnerability that he showed with Leo, and how he has been burned in the past and that has impacted him. The friend group in this is so much fun, their interactions, and the way Shane performed it was just brilliant. I was cackling, it was so funny. I think Erin and Shane together, especially with Louise’s words is fantastic.
