Resumen del Editor

Christina Lauren, the instant New York Times bestselling and “reigning romance queens” (PopSugar), returns with a delicious new romance between the buttoned-up heir of a grocery chain and his free-spirited artist ex as they fake their relationship in order to receive a massive inheritance.

Anna Green thought she was marrying Liam “West” Weston for access to subsidized family housing while at UCLA. She also thought she’d signed divorce papers when the graduation caps were tossed, and they both went on their merry ways.

Three years later, Anna is a starving artist living paycheck to paycheck while West is a Stanford professor. He may be one of four heirs to the Weston Foods conglomerate, but he has little interest in working for the heartless corporation his family built from the ground up. He is interested, however, in his one-hundred-million-dollar inheritance. There’s just one catch.

Due to an antiquated clause in his grandfather’s will, Liam won’t see a penny until he’s been happily married for five years. Just when Liam thinks he’s in the home stretch, pressure mounts from his family to see this mysterious spouse, and he has no choice but to turn to the one person he’s afraid to introduce to his one-percenter parents—his unpolished, not-so-ex-wife.

But in the presence of his family, Liam’s fears quickly shift from whether the feisty, foul-mouthed, paint-splattered Anna can play the part to whether the toxic world of wealth will corrupt someone as pure of heart as his surprisingly grounded and loyal wife. Liam will have to ask himself if the price tag on his flimsy cover story is worth losing true love that sprouted from a lie.

A fun listen

Well, that was spectacular!
Very well narrated.
The story was fun. I cared about everyone involved. I laughed a lot. The main character is hilarious to me.
It even gave me a little hope. Definitely recommend.

A perfect rom com

So many lessons in this that are beautifully blended into smut and romance and comedy. It felt like watching Pretty Woman mixed with Runaway Bride and How to Lose a guy in 10 days. Loved this!

A perfect, fully adult romance

I can’t say enough good things about this book! It has all the things: 2 self aware adults, a tropical island, a slow burn that’s not off putting, serious heat, and a sweet but believable end that is not a fairy tale, but it’s better. I don’t always love these authors, but they knocked it out of the park with this one.

What a fun story!

An exploration of family dynamics, economic disparities, and the coming together of two people from very different backgrounds. The book captures the excitement of meeting someone and learning to trust, lust, and love.

Sooo much FUN!!

Another fantastic summer read from this author duo. I loved the unique spin of a marriage of convenience gone awry. These two couldn't be more different and thankfully that delivers us endless banter. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a summer beach read. Christina Lauren is what I call one of my OG authors. There's something so familiar about diving in one of their books. I recommend the audiobook on this one. I love dual pov's on audio.

Funny and interesting

This was fantastic! ❤️ kept me hooked the entire time. Loved the tropical destination, depth of the characters and ending. Highly recommend!

Karma’s a beach 🏖️

I love when the villain gets a taste of their own medicine. Such a fun book. I love Anna and the outlook her dad instilled in her.

So interesting and loved the character dynamics

I loved this audiobook. Loved the characters and the voices used. Loved the banter in the book.

They Did it Again!

*Spoiler Alert* Loved the story and the happily ever after. The Girls know how to write ‘em.

So good!

A great summer read with lots of steam! This is a quick listen with interesting, likable characters, and great plot development. Loved it!
