Publisher's summary

Christian:

Being invited to my cousin’s wedding really shouldn’t be a big deal except, oh yeah, I haven't seen my family for a decade.

My parents turned their backs on me, and I’ve done everything since to become successful and show them what they've lost. Only it’s kinda hard to be a success when you’re a walking trainwreck.

So I’m going to fake it. Hire a guy with an online presence so impressive they’ll be desperate to welcome me back into the elitist fold, and roll into the wedding with the kind of confidence I’ve never felt a day in my life.

The plan’s a knockout.

Until my fake date cancels minutes before the ceremony.

Émile:

One letter from my dearly departed grandfather, and suddenly I’m on a husband hunt.

He’s reworked his entire will so I’m set to inherit far more than I'm entitled to, and all because he’s asked me to use that money for “good.”

In order to get that inheritance though, there’s one stipulation: marriage.

Even with his request, I’m tempted to stick to my original plan of getting as far from my wretched family as possible, and letting them fight it out.

But then I run into a tall drink of scattered mess outside of a wedding who’s in desperate need of a date, and the pieces click into place.

I help him, he helps me.

Marriage, money, then go our separate ways.

Easy.

Now all I have to do is stop myself from actually falling for the guy.

Funny and heart warming

I love when my cheeks hurt from smiling so much by the end of a title...While I wasn't expecting to be wowed by the "The Husband Hoax" I was surprised to find out how much I truly enjoyed this...Christian's clumsy antics aside. I gave it a shot because I am a huge fan of James Joseph (and his other aliases) and Teddy Hamilton and I am glad I did.

4 stars - worthy of a repeat listen

Cute story

I’d listen just for the two narrators. I love Teddy Hamilton and my new favorite that I love is James Joseph. He’s an incredible narrator. Sweet and sexy story.

Great story/ Great narration

I love Saxon James and I highly recommend this story. It has more villains than I’m use to from her novels. But once the couple starts working together… the payoff is worth it. Narrators are good too, and I love accents- keeps the characters distinct as the story is told.

Oh My Goodness 💕😍 My Heart is FULL

I loved it!
The narration was superb 👌🏽. TH and JJ are 2 of my top narrators, and this book narrated by the 2 of them had me in pure bliss for the whole read 🫠.
I can't wait until the next book in this series...
It's so worth a credit, and I can't wait to listen to it again.
Thank you, Saxon James.
keep them coming...

Nothing Hoax about the Performance

At his cousin’s wedding, Christian needed to impress his family who threw him out for being gay 10 years ago. Outside the church, after his date cancelled on him last minute, Christian meets Émile, who is dressed up for his Grandfather’s funeral. A stranger, Émile offers to be his date. He props up Christian, giving him the confidence he needs to get through the dramatic evening. The chance encounter was meant to be. The men end up changing each others lives for the better.

These characters and the book were improved because of the awesome actors reading the story. James’s Christian sounded like Teddy and Teddy’s Émile sounded like James. It was amazing.

Awwwww

No toxicity is sweet sometimes. Just two beautiful souls falling in love and handling situations. Their friends are great. Almost wish there was another book with them.
