Make-Believe Match

Cherry Tree Harbor, Book 3

De: Melanie Harlow

Narrado por: Robert Hatchet, CJ Bloom

Fall in love with my enemy? No way.

Marry him to save my family’s struggling ski resort? That’s a different story…

Getting hitched is the only way I can inherit Snowberry Lodge, and I’ll do anything to spare my childhood home from the wrecking ball–even wear Devlin Buckley’s ring on my finger.

Not that I’ll enjoy it.

Sure, he’s charming and handsome, and that no-last-names one night stand we shared ended with a fantastically big bang (I saw stars I hadn’t seen in six months, if you catch my drift).

But I’ll never trust him–he was working for the company trying to bulldoze my life.

Right up until the day he knocked on my door with an offer I couldn’t refuse.

Marry him, and he’ll help me restore my family’s crumbling resort to its former glory–and get revenge on his ex-boss in the process. Once our goals are achieved, we’ll go our separate ways.

It’s temporary. Strictly business. Purely for show.

Until I realize how much I like it when he says "my wife."

Once we’re sharing a last name–and a bed–our make-believe match starts to feel a little too real.

And if I’m not careful, I could lose everything… my home, my dreams, and my heart.

Wonderful addition to the series

What could go wrong when you marry a virtual stranger in order to inherit your family ski lodge? Could the make-believe marriage become real? Devlin and Lexi have chemistry from the first time they meet. They each have their reasons for needing to be married. They decide that they could be married with benefits. Will they end up having real feelings? I enjoyed seeing the others from the previous series and books in this series. C.J Bloom and Robert Hatchet brought the book to life for me. I'm looking forward to the next book.

Loved the story

I am enjoying this series so much. The narrators bring the story to life. It reminds me of a Hallmark movie. A fake marriage to save the family ski lodge. Gave me all the feels. I just loved the characters so much.

I have falling in love with cherry Tree harbor

This is the third book so I wanna say this is the third brother. that we have gotten a story for. Obviously you've don't need to read them in order. You don't need to even read the other ones. This story I love. I love her heart and how.
She's so determined to save the ski lodge. And he has some kind of fear. he's a sweetheart. He competitive in nature which is fun.Make for some very cute scenes. There's some really sexy scenes some steamy stuff. This was such a sweet story hard warming. I recommend in fact. I recommend that you listen to the audio. It definitely elevated the story even more. I love CJ Bloom she is so good a banter her delivery is just spot on. Robert is climbing the ladder fast in my book. He's easy to listen to. He's really good at gettig into charcter and keeping you in the book.

Amazing coming of age.

Loved,Loved!!! I really enjoyed how you see the characters evolve for the better. How love prevails through all things. It made you happy for the ending which came together nicely. The ending allowed there to be no questions for the reader to wonder what could happen next. Love love love love!!!!!!

audio perfection!

Melanie Harlow never misses! & I absolutely love when she writes about marriage of convenience. I fell instantly in love with Devlin & Lexi. I loved their banter and it just added to the build up and tension. you could feel the chemistry come off of the pages of these two. I love how much Melanie's writing can make me laugh one minute, be swooning the next, and then also making me get in my feels. we love off al the "my wife" moments- and I seriously don't think anyone does it like Melanie. I loved the cameos also, they always make me super happy to see them again. another thing I can always count on is how freaking good the spice is. it always hits for me, she can do no wrong. Reading new Melanie Harlow books is like coming home, they are so comforting and I know I'm going to enjoy my time there. I loved being back in this world, and I am so excited to come back again soon!
