Resumen del Editor

Dive into the friends-to-lovers, fake fiancé standalone romance that launched the number one New York Times best-selling series!

In my defense, putting a fake ring on my best friend’s finger seems like a good idea at the time. My dad needs me to look like a committed guy to close a business deal, so what’s the harm in boasting to, well, everyone that I’m the marrying kind of man?

Now, I just need my best friend to help me out and play my fiancée for the next week. Good thing Charlotte has her reasons for saying yes to my plan. Just as long as we agree to zero touching, and absolutely no feelings.

I can do that no problem. And for the first few days, we’re pulling off this pretend act like we’re going to win an Academy Award.

But pretty soon, all this playing pretend in public leads to a whole lot of temptation in private. Until one night, we break our no touching rule in spectacular fashion.

There’s no faking the kind of toe-curling, window-shattering cries she makes as I take her to new heights between the sheets that night, and the next, and the one after.

Trouble is, I can’t seem to fake that I might be feeling something real for my best friend.

What the hell have I gotten myself into with this…big rock?

Added to my fave list!

I listened to this on a road trip, and loved hearing Sebastian York the entire time. The cover & story reminded me of Tangled by Emma Chase. It had the perfect amount of humor, romance, and sex. This is my first Lauren Blakely book, and I'm glad to have used my credit on it.

The Guy's side of the story.

If you could sum up Big Rock in three words, what would they be?

Hysterical love story.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Spencer, the guy's side is usually minimal and most of the story is told by the heroine. Not so in this one, self-admitted manwhore, he tells the story. He loves women--all women and shares his "skills" with as many as he can. He readily admits it.

What about Sebastian York’s performance did you like?

Excellent. He handled the jibes and snarks from everyone. Absolutely love him.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed loud and often.

Any additional comments?

Spencer is a good business man, good son and brother, and great friend. Besides his other skills. When his reputation creates a problem for a business transaction for his father he asks his best friend and partner to play engagement with him for a week. They set some rules and end up breaking most of them until they realize they aren't playing anymore. Can they admit it to the other? Will it ruin their friendship and partnership? Don't miss this unique, hysterical, steaming hot, read.

great

Thanks for your story it is the best . I could not put it down. It is now my favorite book! !!!!!!!!

I love to hear anything Mr. York narrates!

Worth Every Minute

Big Rock highlights what Lauren Blakely does best. She is a master of LOL, snarky, pop culture-fueled, sexy, dirty, butterfly-inducing, happy-making, can’t-stop-reading, Romance books! Big Rock is absolutely fantastic!

Spencer Holiday is confident…Ok, let’s be honest – he’s cocky! But, Spencer makes cocky look oh-so-good. Charlotte is his perfect match for this Friends to Lovers Trope. Big Rock isn’t full of shocking surprises and unexpected revelations. But, it is absolutely enjoyable from start to finish! You will laugh out loud and the butterflies will take flight as you race through this charming and delightful story.

I enjoyed Big Rock in audiobook format. It is narrated by my absolute favorite narrator, Sebastian York. Sebastian could murmur nonsense and I would hang on his every word. This is a quick read (or listen) and worth every minute! If you’re looking for a great story, terrific characters and lots of steam in a feel-good romance, I guarantee that Big Rock will deliver just what you’re searching for!

Any additional comments?

At Boundless Book Reviews we each have our own authors that we tend to covet and read. Lauren is one of Lissa’s but she raved so much about this series I HAD TO give it a try. I was offered Big Rock on Audible for a steal and thought it was fate. OMG it had me at the prologue!

This story is funny, sexy, downright scorching at times and above all utterly perfect. Then you get Sebastian as a narrator. Oh holy hell! Swoon! I loved every minute of the audio book!

Out of my usual realm/ comfort zone

It was rated r, quick, trashy, but fun.

Listened to whole thing made me laugh and smile. Narrator was 10 stars. Overall enjoyable.

Thanks :-)

Big heart

Loved this story! Had me laughing and even some happy tears. Was beautiful. xxx
