Resumen del Editor
The job was simple. Pose as her boss' fiancee for the weekend and earn $1,000. But Karin and Craig's make-believe love affair takes an unexpected turn when circumstances throw them together in the same room for the night.
While Karin's feelings blossom, Craig makes it clear he's only interested in a friends-with-benefits relationship. Will Craig's fear of commitment drive Karin from his life professionally as well as emotionally?

Eight years ago I fell into a secret summer fling with my best friend’s little sister before our lives went in different directions. Now, I’m the grumpy to Juliet’s sunshine on a popular dating podcast we host, and when a wealthy fan gives us a charming coastal cottage as the biggest thank you ever, we head to the town where I grew up to give it a makeover. And find the house has only one bed. Located under a mirrored ceiling.

Historia
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

A Great, Heartfelt Story! Great Audible Listen🎧
This is a well written, enjoyable story that captured my attention from start to end. The storylines and characters are interesting and well developed. Craig tells his Grandmother that he is engaged, so he finds himself in a bind when his Grandmother tells him she wants to meet her and to bring her when he comes for a visit. He asks his secretary, Karin, if she would pose as his fiancé for the weekend in exchange for $1000. Karin, the good person she is say yes, the money will come in handy for her roommate who is battling cancer. All goes well, she meets his grandmother, Hope, and the rest of the family and friends. But lines get crossed and feelings come in play. While there is great chemistry between Karin and Craig, he does not believe in relationships, a part of him is broken and he feels he is not worthy of love. This is a heartfelt story with drama, angst, some twists, some good friendships, love and yes, hope for the future. Kimber Jackson, thank you for this great story!
I listened to the Audible edition, Diana Lyon is a terrific narrator and voice performer. She brings the characters to life, gives each their own voice and personality. She is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thanks for great listen🎧

Meh
Romance stories can be troublesome if the attraction is not real or believed. In this listen, we are to believe that the boss and his secretary (the author's word, not mine) had hidden desires for one another. Possible. They entered into an arrangement to be make-believe lovers for a weekend so the boss can fool his much-loved grandmother into thinking grandchildren were in the future. Okay. The secretary agrees to this for $1000. A sum she believed was substantial enough to help her friend with her medical bills. M-kay.
The secretary was initially insulted by her bosses proposal then engaging then fearful then well, the see-saw was pretty constant. The boss was initially happy about the ruse, then apprehensive, then turned on. More see-sawing.
This book was a chore to get through. I'm only glad there is no book two.

Great Read
Hope For the Future was a good quick read by Kimber Jackson. Karin has been offered a special assignment from her boss Craig. She can make $1000 ton pose as his fiancee. They wind up in the same room for the night and suddenly things start to change for them. Karin wants more but Craig wants to just be friends with benefits. I loved reading Karin and Craig's story.

Cute
An adorable story with a lot of deeper messages within. It's not the most original plot, but the writing is solid and the characters are relatable and the romance is well written. There is some sex but it is not particularly graphic. I enjoyed this as a cute afternoon listen.
I thought the narrator gave a great performance and was a good fit for this story and its characters.

Excelent
I received this book free in return for an honest review and it was well worth the listen. The narrorator did an excelent job of bringing the characters to life and the story did not drag on for no reason. I not only enjoyed the book but am bookmarking the author to keep tabs on other books released in the future.

Beautiful story of Hope
Craig Johnston needs a date for his friend’s baby shower so that his grandmother and friends will stop their matchmaking efforts. Who better to ask than his trusty secretary, Karin. He’ll even pay her! Karin agrees to go along with Craig’s plan so she can help her bff with medical bills, but she’s disappointed that Craig’s motivation is getting his grandparents money. However, the more that she sees Craig interact with his grandparents, Karin believes that her initial reaction is wrong. The pair recognize the chemistry between them but Craig is insistent that they retain the business arrangement. When a tornado hits the town, the pair become intimate...and Craig asks Karin to move in...’for as long as it lasts’! Karin is hurt and turns in her resignation. Will Craig come clean with his grandparents about his non-relationship with Karin? Will he really let Karin go? Is there an HEA for this pair? I love Craig’s relationship with his grandparents but he has insecurities in his past that may preclude him from an HEA. Good story that tackles the issue of teenage mothers and the struggle to find a support system.

Karin and Craig (Mr. Johnston)
Mr. Johnston has a proposition for Karin, his assistant. Mr. Johnston asked her to pose as his fiancée for a weekend so his grandmother and family would think he is planning to abandon his old ways and settle down into marriage. Karin accepts because she feels the $1,000 will help her best friend and roommate who is suffering from cancer. Eventually, things so south when Craig’s grandmother is rushed to the hospital and she knows something is off and Craig admits everything to her. This book had such a nice ending for both Karin and her best friend. It is a shame it took Craig so long to realize he deserved love.
Diana Lyon did a good job with the narration. I received this free copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

An office, fake fiancee story with a HEA. For the most part an enjoyable listen. The characters were likable especially Hope and Charlotte. I felt that Karen could have been stronger. Her self talk and communication skills were lacking a bit. The fact that Craig didn't think Karen needed to know more about him as a fiancee was just weird and unrealistic.
I liked the
Diana Lyons interpretation of the female voices but the constant grasping and guttural voices of the men got on my nerves.
