Publisher's summary

Two childhood friends are playing house—and maybe playing for keeps—in USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke’s funny, sexy, and unpredictable marriage-of-convenience romance.

To save her Tennessee bed-and-breakfast, Sophie Bates needs a fast-cash miracle. Holden McKenzie, her childhood best friend, needs to prove to a prospective employer that he’s a committed man. Their fortunes on the line, Holden proposes...a solution.

He’ll take care of Sophie’s bills if she agrees to a temporary marriage of convenience. And why not? They’re comfortable together, they have fun, and they trust each other. It’s as simple as saying “I do.” But the off-the-cuff wedding has all of Honey Creek talking—and Sophie and Holden realizing that their perfect arrangement is working too well. If they’re not careful, this marriage could turn into a love story.

Small town sweet

This was such a sweet fun small town romance.
It had sass, and all the small town fun.

Fabulous, Swoony, Small Town Romance!

This is my second read by Adriana Locke, and I enjoyed both! This was particularly satisfying for me…small town, likable MCs, fake marriage that led to more, and a wonderful HEA! Narration was great!

Cute

This book is a cute book to read. I love their chemistry. Ryan West & Lidia Dornet did an excellent job at narrating

Fun second chance type story

I love a good second chance romance and this one had the twist of never really having a first chance. There is so much fun quirkiness for each of these characters and the town in general.
I wasn't in love with the voices at first but within a few chapters they really felt right for the characters.

Great listen

This friends to lovers/marriage of convenience romance is a nice way to take a few hours to relax and read a great story.  Holden McKenzie spent summers in Tennessee with his Paps. As an adult a vet he has come back to Honey Creek to help his paps vet clinic waiting to hear about a job of his dreams and to move on from upheaval in his private and personal life.  The job he has always wanted needs to be convinced that he is stable, committed candidate, the way they believe that is he needs a wife.  Sophie Bates, Holden’s best friend from those summers is in need of financial assistance to keep her B&B afloat since she was swindled by her ex.  Could they help each other with a business relationship between friends.  Adrianna Locke wrote a book with all the feels and great chemistry and fun between these two characters and also getting to know people in their lives.  You can’t help but love this book and I can’t wait for any more in this series and by this author. Narration is great

Shakespearean quote used for tears smiles.

Cute blend of humor, romance, and tears.
I believe this is a Shakespearean quote, but I could be wrong. I apologize if that is the case.

I loved it!!

Such a sweet story.

Just imagine, your childhood friend grows up to be a hottie and propositions you with a marriage to save your livelihood and his career... Would you do it? Sophie Bates and Holden McKenzie were faced with this situation and boy was this book great. The narration was wonderful. There was no lag in the story. I found myself enjoying the book immensely. One of the better audiobooks that I've purchased recently.
