Synopsis

Marry me for 1 year. Payment: $1.2 million.

Hayden Somerset is convinced the ad is a joke, but he responds anyway because, hello, $1.2 million. He’s broke, living in a tiny apartment with two roommates, and exhausted from praying his ancient car survives just one more week. His skyrocketing rent and crushing student loans aren’t helping either. At this point, there isn’t much Hayden wouldn’t do for that kind of cash.

The ad isn’t a joke. Jesse Ambrose is absolutely serious. His father, the charismatic patriarch of a powerful Hollywood dynasty, has his eye on politics, and he’s counting on California’s liberals and progressives to elect him. But Jesse knows what his father believes when cameras and voters aren’t around. As the election looms, he’ll do anything to force the man’s hand and show the public who Isaac Ambrose really is.

Anything, including marrying a stranger so his father will make good on his promise to disown Jesse if he ever takes a husband.

Now he just has to wait for his father to take the bait… and try not to accidentally fall in love with his fake husband.

This book is slow with a capital “S”. 😒 My God, 60% and nada action. Not even an intense UST. ☹️ The winded version of Ambrose family drama went on and on and on and on. 🙄 And Hayden grated on my nerves so bad. He’s a real whiny little b**ch in the beginning. Although he made up for his actions in t......more

Goodreads review by Martin on November 20, 2018

I liked it, but I am a bit torn over the story too... Both Hayden and Jesse are super likable guys with a slightly over the top humor and attitudes that fit the setting of L.A. and Hollywood very well. And the plot seems to match the slightly exaggerated MCs perfectly. Jesse Ambrose is one of the sons......more

Goodreads review by tappkalina on August 21, 2023

Isn't this the best feeling ever? Picking up a random book from your never ending tbr and finding a treasure? If I had to describe it with one word, it would be genuine. What a funny thing it is that the only two books I considered giving 5 stars to this year (this one and Honey Girl) both have less t......more
