Story
Eleanor Murray is tired. Tired of going on awkward dates. Tired of meeting men who just aren’t that into her. Tired of being set up on blind dates by her well-meaning friends. She is a believer of true love, of finding that happily ever after, and she wants it. She deserves it. But at the rate she’s going, she’s pretty sure it’s never going to happen. Until a friend creates a profile for Eleanor on a new dating app. At first, she’s reluctant. But then she makes a connection on Rate a Date, and this gorgeous, confident guy almost seems too good to be true....

Jase Foster is as loyal and committed as a friend can get - when it comes to the guys, that is. But with women he keeps it casual and experiences what one would call a "high turnover rate". Emily Klein is beautiful and confident...and has mile-long legs that have been strutting in and out of Jase's life since adolescence, leaving a wake of destruction. As they get paired up time after time as the best man and maid of honor in the upcoming nuptials of all of their best friends, Emily and Jase find their mutual resentment simmering just beneath the surface.

But he wants the best for his vivacious, beautiful friend Gwen Danes, and he's tired of watching her pine for a clueless man. Figuring a little bit of jealousy will motivate the guy, Brody proposes a fake relationship. It's an outrageous plan, but Gwen figures there's no harm in it - until they share a passionate kiss she never saw coming. Suddenly, Gwen's fighting a growing attraction to a man she knows she can't have. After all, he's just faking it, isn't he?

I wasted two whole months drowning in my own despair, like a complete loser. And I lost my girlfriend - Fable Maguire, the only girl who ever mattered - because I was afraid that being with me would only hurt her.

It’s true. I’m not what most people would call “pretty” and, well, high school was rough. Fast forward ten years and life is good, until a bunch of jerks think it’s hilarious to put the “butterface” (AKA me) on a wedding Kiss Cam with the hottest guy ever - and that old humiliation hits hard. I recognize him immediately. The hottest cop in Waterbury and totally out of my league. But then he kisses me. And we totally forget the room, the crowd, everything. Then he tells everyone we’ve been dating for months.

My first crush. My first kiss. The boy who ripped my heart out of my chest again and again. Over and over. I let him have it every single time. Willingly. We are that toxic high school couple you hear about, the one you witness in the hallway as they avoid each other. You laugh at them in class when they’re forced to work together, their gazes full of hatred. We are the couple you gossip about when they win homecoming prince and princess their sophomore year.... The back and forth is what kills me the most. I’m not his princess, I’m the girl he toys with when he’s bored.

My job’s simple: Keep all interested ladies away from the walled-off heir, by pretending to be his one true love. But you know what they say about fake-dating a billionaire: It’s all fun and games, until the scandals start.

He's cold, hard, and undeniably arrogant. That's how Andrew Blake's best friends describe him. Bad luck for me that I'm his new assistant. Nothing I do is good enough. I'm beginning to wonder if there's a heart in that tall, hard, gorgeous body of his. After work, I'm complaining about him to my new best friend - the bartender at the pub, near the office. Guess who's seated behind me, and has heard every gripe, grumble and grievance? By the look in Andrew's eye, I can't tell if I'm going to get fired or kissed.

Story
I have one rule: I don't do relationships. The last thing I need in my life is a woman trying to tie me down. There was only one woman I’d ever considered breaking my rule for. That was, until I received her wedding invitation in the mail. I learned my lesson after that, and I don’t make the same mistake twice. I reinforced my walls and never considered letting them down again. Not even for the mysterious, gorgeous new woman in town. Friends, I can do. Friends with benefits, even better. But that’s where I draw the line. Problem is, Devin is standing on the other side of it.
By: Melissa Ellen
Publisher's Summary
Stella Ricci is bored. Her overprotective family barely let her out of their sight, despite the fact she’s a grown woman. Yes, she loves her job at her family’s café, and she’s the best barista in the entire Monterey Peninsula, but is that enough? She’s thinking no. But what else can she do?
Enter Carter Abbott. Burnt out after the never-ending grind of selling high-end real estate in Los Angeles, he’s returned home, unsure of what to do next. He needs someplace to crash temporarily until he gets back on his feet.
It’s easy for Stella to suggest Carter move in. Temporarily of course. It’ll give her someone to talk to. The only problem? That one night stand Stella and Carter had about a year ago. They never talked about it. They still don’t really talk about it. Despite the fact that the old chemistry has come back full force. Living together has made that obvious. Should they admit that one night wasn’t enough? Or will dating each other turn into an epic fail? Only one way to find out....

Carter and Stella
A hot and steamy "second chance romance". This was cute, entertaining, and a little frustrating. Stella and Carter felt their feelings for each other through the majority of the story. Oh, they let their lust drive them together but they fought hard to move forward. I enjoyed their journey. John Lane and Avery Reid were fantastic narrators, I loved listening to them bring these adorable characters to life.

Unbalanced
Stella is such an unappreciative, lying jerk. Spoiled brat is accurate. But one hopes she could grow up a little. We wouldn’t tolerate her behavior in a male character without completely crucifying him. She is definitely NOT “worth the fight”.
John Lane did a great job.

Good story, scummy heroine.
Right off the bat I liked the book. I liked the truth in the actions & repercussions of a one night stand. I like the CA setting and I like the dynamics of the girl group & how we plod through all their romances one by one in this series. Most are fun and sexy...some have been less than original but still pretty good. This book was rather original yet still reflected the environment from the series. At first I really like Stella's character, she was strong, independent, modern ... her own person. But then she turned out to be a low life... how disappointing.
Still all in all the book is enjoyable.
The male narration was good. The female narrator over acts her breathy super emotions as usual < 🙄 >

AMAZON USE YOUR WARNING LABELS- X RATED NOT ROMCOM
WHERE ARE AMAZON'S X- RATED AND FOUL LANGUAGE LABELS? THIS IS LABLED ROMCOM, BUY IT'S NOT FUNNY
AT ALL!!
The plot could have been outlined on a postage stamp. So much descriptive sex and not enough descriptive getting -to -know you.
The "Dark Moment" was ridiculous - If one small disagreement ends it all, these two are too pathetic to breath. Join the real world where people have real problems and lighten up a little. Also who drinks as much as this crowd and don't end up as alcoholics?
Both narraters are great! This wasn't their fault. The sound recording production was awful - like listening with tin can earmuffs, and it was impossible to tell the difference between thought and speech, regardless of which narrater. I will look for more books read by these two. They did a great job!
Only enough plot for a short story.

The way Avery read Stella's chapters was very staccato. It made following along quite difficult.
It was worse in the beginning, but improved towards the end. Otherwise, I loved the storyline.
