Fake dating my enemy so I can design my dream bakery should be easy...as long as I don't fall in love with him.

Dominic Hardy might be an award-winning architectural engineer with fancy degrees and considerable accolades, but he doesn’t know a thing about baking. He doesn’t even like sugar.

So when my late stepfather’s will states that Dominic Hardy is set to inherit the Pacific Coast Resort he’d painstakingly designed, as long as my bakery can be plopped in the middle of it, it’s no surprise he balks. Yet, my jaw drops when the will further requires us to mutually approve plans for my bakery’s design. His stuffy taste will never mix with my whimsical vibe.

But then Dominic comes to me with a proposal I can’t refuse. He’ll give me everything I want in my bakery as long as I agree to one thing:

Fake date him for five months. Keep his ex away by pretending we’re in love. Smile and stare into his piercing green eyes at a gala or two. Maybe share a kiss. Nothing extreme. Five months of acting in love when I really loathe him and his filthy mouth. Even when he’s using it on me.

This should be a cakewalk. Except there’s a fine line between love and loathing, and I think I’ve made the colossal mistake of blurring it.

Read it in a day. CJ Bloom is one of my favorite narrators and Joe Arden never fails. Together they brought to life Shain Rose’s world filled with my favorite elements of a good romance: great spice, HEA love story, real world elements that don’t take you away from the illusion but ground you into the story. I felt like I knew these characters. Definitely recommend.

Love, love, loooove this one

I listened to this book through audible while following along on my kindle. CJ Bloom and Joe Arden did a fantastic job narrating! These two are on my list of favorite narrators!

Dominic is the ultimate alpha male! He has such a dirty mouth! Woooo! Clara is such a people pleaser and never puts herself first. I loved the banter between these two! The two of them challenge each other and I love their dynamic throughout the book. I love how the author represented Clara’s chronic illness! She did a wonderful job! This was a great book overall and I highly recommend!

Hot!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Loved this story!! The characters were so dynamic and really brought the whole book to life. The storyline was adorable and kept me completely engaged.

The only off-putting part was that the audiobook and the physical book didn’t always line up — it was especially noticeable in Chapter 39. That said, the narration was phenomenal, and the story itself was so charming that I was happy to overlook the discrepancy.

Would absolutely recommend! ♥️

Loved this story!!
