What to expect
An overnight billionaire …
When Carson Frost inherits a confectionary that rakes in billions but is too cash-strapped to last another sixty days, he agrees to take a loan from his late father’s rival. There are two catches: Carson has to sign over a permanent stake in the company, and marry the man’s daughter.
Concocts a fake bride …
Two weeks before the wedding, he gets cold feet and claims he’s in love with someone else. The investor says he’ll still hand over the cash if Carson takes a stroll down the aisle―with the woman who owns his heart. Since he isn’t even dating anyone, Carson panics. Where is he going to find a bride willing to jilt him at the altar on such short notice?
And whips up a little love.
Ella Hope is an actress happy for any paying gig, but jilting a hottie in public isn’t what she had in mind. Still, she needs rent, and he’s in a bind. How hard can it be? While playing at matrimony, suddenly their intimacy isn’t so fake. Ella can’t help but fantasize that Carson is her groom and they will live happily ever after. But once his company is safe, will he want her anymore?
Critics Review
“Narrators Christian Fox and Lucy Rivers set the perfect tone, both sexy and silly, in this racy romp of an audiobook…The narrators’ voices complement each other nicely, and moving from one voice to another is never jarring…This audiobook is frisky fun.”
“Playful banter and affectionate one-upmanship showcase Ella’s and Carson’s competitive drive in their respective fields and highlight their compatibility…Fans of erotic romance will thoroughly enjoy Black’s simply sweet love fest with its slightly wacky premise. Verdict: This speedy, steamy read will leave hearts racing. A solid launch to the Misadventures series.”
“A sweet and sexy romp that will leave you smiling from ear to ear. This book might kick things off with a liberal dose of insta-love but the sincerity of the characters’ emotions shines through. Earnest and thoroughly developed characters collide with smoking hot sex and glorious grand gestures to make these Misadventures a delight.”
