Publisher's summary

My butt pads are sliding under my shape wear, I had to starve to fit in this dress, and the last place on earth I want to be is on a date with Walker Svensson.

Entitled playboy. More money than sense. Abs you could grate cheese on.
Damn, I would stab someone for some brie.
This is truly the date from hell.
Walker is full of himself, somehow has bribed all the wait staff, and he showed up to the date with a giant chocolate cake shaped like a raccoon.
Don’t get me wrong, I like cake as much as the next girl, but seriously?!?
This is a nice restaurant. Grrrr!
Too bad I can’t throw my drink in his face and walk out.
For one, I think the padding in my bra would fall out if I stood up.
More importantly, I desperately need Walker to fall in love with me.
Yeah, I can’t believe it either, yet here we are, friends.
Am I a gold digger? Nope.
Just desperate, broke, and about to lose my home.
...One I share with more roommates than a grown woman should have, along with a pack of ferrets that my client refuses to pick up.
The article I plan to write about the whole debacle will launch my writing career. I’ll finally be able to pay off my debts!
But I have only 10 days to do it.
Cue the panic.
Now I have to spend time with a man I despise.
At least Walker’s hot. Not that I’m ogling his chest when he’s not looking.
Or maybe I am. A little bit.
Sue me, I shouldn’t drink on an empty stomach.
And when he catches me checking him out?
Let’s just say it’s not the worst date ever.

This is a stand-alone, full-length, laugh-out-loud romantic comedy. Hot guys with adorable little sisters, a dumpster-diving nonna, and a book bestie you can panic-drink with. Lots of steam, and all the laughter!

Hijinks and hilarity ensue with a dessert thief, ferrets and more!

I really liked this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable. The characters were interesting and likable for the most part. I did want to smack some of the characters upside the head on more than one occasion. Greg was a major jerk. I really wanted Belle and the ladies to come up with another option rather than deal with Greg. Walker was great with his sisters. Ana was sweet with them as well. The ferrets were great. Nonna was hilarious. There was a lot of this story that I adored. I liked how the story ended. I recommend reading this book.

I also listened to the audiobook of this story. The narrators did a fantastic job of bringing the story to life. Listening to the audiobook was more enjoyable for me than reading the book myself which is not the way it usually works for me! I definitely recommend listening to the audiobook as well.

So hilarious

The Svenson Brothers are so messed up that you can’t help but cheer them on but the real characters that run the show are the girls! Great comedy rom-com .
