A steamy fake engagement romance from New York Times Bestselling Author Samantha Young.

Faking it has never been so hard…

Breaking up with my fiancé wasn’t on my agenda this summer, neither was hiding the truth from everyone, including my colleagues at Pennington’s department store. But that tiny evasion gets me into trouble when I’m forced to play bride-to-be for our new marketing campaign. If my boss finds out I’ve lied to her, it won’t just be my reputation on the line; it’ll be my job.

Enter my new bestie, Baird McMillan. Professional goalkeeper, professional heartbreaker, and now my professional fake fiancé. Baird’s public escapades have gotten him on the wrong side of his football club’s new owner, and he needs to prove he’s settling down. A fake engagement is a win-win for us both.

There’s just one problem. It turns out there’s nothing fake about the explosive connection Baird and I share.

I may not have been looking for love, but every moment with Baird tempts me to reach for it. Yet just as I start to believe a future together could be a real possibility, our pasts come surging back with a vengeance. And with it, those who will do anything to destroy our chance at forever…

The story was amazing.

The story was fabulous as always I have loved everyone of her books. My issue was the narration. They switched female narrators, and this woman drove me up a wall so much that I almost stopped listening. It sounded like after every couple of words she was taking a pause so it really made it hard to get into the story because I kept having to go wait a minute. The sentence wasn’t over. Why did you stop? Other than that as always, the story was absolutely amazing but without a good narrator, it really does take away from the performance.

Best narrators 💝

Samantha Young is one of my favorite authors. After listening to this, I need my own Baird!

Loved It!

What a perfect story of finding love and taking a chance. I suggest you listen for yourself!

OH I ATE THIS UP IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE.

* friends to lovers
* fake engagement
* he falls first and is DOWN BAD

Obsessed with Baird and Maia!!! I loved their friendship so much and loved how determined Baird was to make Maia his!! Aside from their relationship, these two had so much individual character growth in this book, it was amazing. I loved how they were fighting their own demons and how the other helped them through it. They become each other's safe space and it had my heart feeling all gooey!!

Thank you so much to the author for an e-ARC - all opinions are my own!

Bear and My Besties Forever

Wow. Absolutely LOVED Maia and Baird. I know Baird’s story wasn’t originally in Samantha’s plans, but as a fan I am so grateful that she granted our wishes for more Baird, and My. They were the perfect besties to lovers who got each-other. They were funny, they were emotional and they were steamy! Bear’s patience for My to catch up to his feelings was so sweet.
