About this ebook

Who knew a fake holiday relationship could be so fun?


Kayla Summers has had enough of her mother’s insistence that she find a man and get married. At thirty-three, she’s a successful attorney and has a fantastic life. Knowing her mother will grill her constantly over the upcoming holidays about her single existence, she dreads the visits home.


Carter Manheim is a self-proclaimed bachelor, dead set on seducing every beautiful woman in Manhattan. And why not? His parents’ disastrous marriage and divorce proved that lifelong commitments just aren’t viable. As his mother’s health worsens, his only wish is to give her one last happy holiday, even if it entails bringing home a girlfriend.


When Kayla’s sexy neighbor proposes they take each other home for the holidays as fake partners, she’s floored. However, getting her mother off her back is her number one priority and she agrees to the arrangement. Now, if she can only keep her heart from becoming emotionally entangled with the player of the century, she’ll be just fine…


This book is filled with fast-paced fake relationship shenanigans and steamy scenes designed to melt your tablet. The main character’s mother has late-stage cancer so please consider that before you read. Here’s hoping this funny, romantic story can give you a few hours of escape during the holidays! Enjoy!

This is one of the best fake relationship stories I've ever read. The emotion just pours off the pages so have a hankie nearby. I love how upfront and practical they both are and that their story focuses on them and their everyday loves sans drama. It touches on the a little bit on how family things influences the grown up person you become and they support one another as best as they can considering their fakeness, yeah it get's real. It is a happy for now but Kayla's ok with that so I will be

Oh my gosh, Kayla and Carter can bring tears to my eyes. They are truly so good together in their fake relationship. They are spicy and sweet. They are witty and funny. They are cute. I love his family and I love her best friends. Their story is also filled with emotion and that makes my heart sing.
