About this ebook

So I married my nemesis…

My new life in the States and dream job as a game tester just hit a massive snag. If I don't want immediate deportation on my to-do list, I need help, stat. Quickest solution—marry Lucas Walker, my cranky and oh-so-annoying co-worker.

Still, this can work. We’ll have rules and have to stick to them. I won’t think about his muscled arms or how stupid handsome he is even while he pushes all my hot buttons. It’s a marriage on paper only. I need to remember that.

 

Player two, press start.

When that exasperating Canadian, Katya Ellis, asked for help, I agreed because she was willing to help me in return. She doesn’t need to know it’s in my best interest for her to stay in the country. Nope, this is a business arrangement through and through. Which means I’ll set aside all those involuntary fantasies I’ve been having about her shapely body pressed to mine…

 

What could go wrong? Welp… as it turns out, just about everything.

I couldn't put it down! Katya and Lucas work together and enter a marriage of convenience when Katya is threatened with being sent back to Canada. This story is funny, entertaining, emotional and ultra-steamy with plenty of slow burn sexual tension. I really liked that the author brought up some very real issues of today - immigration, substance abuse - in a realistic and compassionate manner. Finally, being Canadian, I appreciated the Canadian references -it's not often I come across books with Canadian characters. This is the first book I've read by Brenna Aubrey, and I look forward to reading more.

Video game tester Katharina Ellis needs Lucas Walker to marry her if she doesn't want to be deported for working in the US illegally. The handsome but annoying Lucas agrees to marry Katya, even though she knows he hates her, and the feeling is mutual. Katya and Lucas agree to get a divorce after she gets her green card. This can only go one of two ways ... they kill each other or they just need to **** and get it over with but how will it all end? For The Taking is an emotional rollercoaster ride filled with banter, drama, intrigue and steam.

The characters are always intelligent and interesting. Careers are important to them and their struggles are relatable. Katya and Lucas were great! Cant wait for the next release. Well done Brenna
