Made in Manhattan by Lauren Layne
3.0

3.5 ⭐️

“Violet sniffed. ‘The language is hardly necessary.’

‘That’s unnecessary? Says the duchess in her old-lady pearls. How old are you, twenty-two going on ninety? Everything about you is unnecessary.’”

Made in Manhattan is a reverse-Pretty Woman / My Fair Lady situation, where Cain, gruff and snarky, and comes from New Orleans into the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Violet is there to meet him, determined to make him fit into her socialite, pearl-and-designer-wearing world so he can take over as CEO of his grandmother’s company. The two have fantastic banter and sparking chemistry to make this a really fun read in really fun settings (NYC and NOLA). Absolutely loved the inclusion of Mardi Gras! This book flew by - an excellent and fun read!

Thanks to Gallery Books and Valentine PR for the copy of this book!
