Resumen del Editor

From Wall Street Journal and #1 Amazon bestselling author Winter Renshaw comes a sizzling romance about two people who fall in love, go their separate ways, and then try to reconnect against all odds.

Always a bridesmaid, never a bride—and that’s the way I like it.

I may be anti-marriage, but I’m still pro-romance. Case in point? That sexy curmudgeon I met last year during my cousin’s tropical bachelorette getaway.

That grump was Dorian, the groom’s old college roommate, there for the bachelor party. I couldn’t get enough of his messy brown hair and gorgeous turquoise eyes. We connected on a deep level—emotionally and physically.

But the timing wasn’t right. So we made a pact to reconnect in two years. Now I’m starting a new “job.” It’ll take a lot of work and pays really well—I’m talking seven figures here. All I have to do is pretend to be my boss’s new fiancée…and spend eight weeks with his family on their private island. How hard could it be?

Turns out, a lot harder than I thought. Because the man I’m pretending to love? He’s Dorian’s brother, and now all bets are off…

Not very steamy, but a decent story

I really miss the steam meter audible used to have on each romance book. This one would have been on the very low side, right above Sweet. Dorian's family is not likeable at all. I felt the middle kind of dragged on, and the ending seemed rushed.

Although it was definitely not my favorite book, it was by no means the worst I've read. I like this author and will definitely read more of her books.

good story

it was a fun quirky story but Lord it was so weird listening to both narrators says Dash's names wrong then right then wrong then right lol he was dashiel in one sentence then dash the next....It distracted me and I couldn't stop noticing it....

Cute

This was such a cute story and I love a good HEA. The emotional turmoil was well worth it to have a great ending. The performance was phenomenal and exactly how I would have pictured the characters voices.

Right person wrong time

This is a twist on the fake relationship trope. The fake relationship is not between the two main characters.

Dorian and Briar developed strong feelings for each other after spending in a few days together. Right person wrong time. They promised to wait two years and pick up right where they left off.

When Briar’s boss makes her an offer she found impossible to refuse, she finds herself on a beautiful island for 8 weeks with a fake fiancé. She stands to reap $1M. However, the brother of her fake fiancée in none other than Dorian.

The story has past and present scenes. We get the meeting and the beginning of the relationship between Dorian and Briar told along side the present and the drama unfolding on the island. We also get a great epilogue that gives and update on the characters.

Fun story with emotion, drama , angst and heartbreak.

Had me guessing for awhile

I liked narrators for this book.
I thought I had the story figured out, but then thought no, it will take this turn, so I like that it was somewhat predictable but still had me guessing if that makes sense. 😂

Good story, wanted more connection

The story was good, but I would have liked more connecting moments with the main characters on the island. I think the MMC could have tried harder to find out the issue and reconnect. I was also hoping for a little redemption in the siblings. Overall, I was engaged the entire time and the narrators were great.

Fake-ish

Fake-ish is a fake relationship book. This book is about Dorian and Briar and is told from both of their points of view.

Briar and Dorian meet when Brian is at her cousin's bachelorette getaway. They promise to wait for each other for two years.

Now Briar is fake engaged to her boss thinking it's to make his father happy. However, she realizes his brother is Dorian whom she's still in love with. Dorian takes it hard that she's engaged to his brother.

There are a ton of secrets and twists and turns in this book. Will Dorian and Briar get their happy ending?

Love a Fake Relationship Trope

In Fake-ish, Winter Renshaw put a definite twist on the fake relationship trope. The story is well-written, and the new-to-me narrators did a good job, It’s a good read!

It was just okay.

I actually liked the plot very much. Some of the authors writing was a bit pretentious and boring. It didn't draw o e in and hold your attention. I struggled with this audio book in the same way I struggle with some Stephen King books. The conversation between the two main characters was just not very engaging it sexy..even though it might be a conversation my husband and I might have engaged in when we first met. I want to hear books that excite, not bore me to death with mundane drivel. I had such high hopes for this book

Another Win From Winter!

Winter Renshaw never fails to disappoint! Just her name alone is enough for me to pick up the book. The chemistry between Briar and Dorian was instant. The sparks were palpable. They had a connection that instantly had you rooting for them. There were plot twists that kept me on my feet. Briar and Dorian’s journey to their hea wasn’t easy but it was worth the ride. This was my first audiobook by Stefan Cordova and Kathryn Lynhurst but I must say these two did an amazing job with their performance!
