The Plus One Contract

Skeptically in Love, Book 1

By: Laura Ashley Gallagher

Narrated by: Samantha Cook, Jarman Day

Sienna Blake knew attending her brother's wedding meant facing the past she left behind—the old friends who chose sides, the city that never really felt like home, and the ex who moved on without looking back… who is now the best man.

She can handle it.

What she can't handle? The endless questions about why she's still single.

Enter Nathan Calloway. A chance encounter at an airport bar turns into an impulsive deal. For one week, he'll be her perfect fake boyfriend.

The rules are simple: convince everyone, survive the wedding, and walk away unscathed.

But the longer they pretend, the more real it starts to feel. And as the lines blur between what's fake and what's undeniable, Sienna has to wonder—was this ever just a deal, or has she risked her heart on something real?

Easy to Listen To

These people could be my cousins-maybe not the billionaire part- with regular type problems.
Relatives out of control, old flames, complicated family get togethers. Here and there really funny! Romance and happy ending. The narrators are good but even though the female is very good, I wished for more from the male POV. I want duets not as happy with duals. Might buy another from this author.

Couldn’t stop reading!

I finished this book in 1 day! I couldn’t put it down. I can’t wait to read her other books.

The Plus one Contract

I absolutely loved this audio book my husband picked it out for me and I got to say he knows me well

Not-so-skeptically in love with this book!

I am very picky about the romance books I read. I’m fine with spicy, but it has to have more depth to it than just spice for its own sake. This book fulfilled that expectation and then some! I laughed, I cried, I curled my toes. The spicy parts, which were plentiful enough without wearing out their welcome, provided just the right amount of heat. It was a slow burn to the “good parts” in the best way. The characters were well-written and possessed a depth that should be the envy of authors everywhere. Can’t wait to check out the rest of the series!

Good lighthearted story

It was a good story. Not too
Much drama which I love. Definitely recommend this.
