Outmatched
by Kristen Callihan, Samantha Young
Parker Brown needs a fake boyfriend to convince her misogynist billionaire investor boss that she's serious about becoming a full team member of the green technology company he's at the helm of. She hires the her perfect match from an escort service, only to have his livid former heavy weight prize winning boxer brother show up for their first business dinner "date."
Rhys Morgan is everything Parker is not. Huge to her tiny, gruff to her prim, and extremely adamant that she will NOT be hiring his brother. Plus, turns out Parker's boss is a huge fan of Rhys, so maybe Parker should hire him instead.
Their fake relationship quickly turns into real feelings as they realize that opposites do attract and both Parker and Rhys are more than stereotypes.
I loved the Boston setting and the chemistry is real and jumps off the page, but some of the rest of the plot fell flat. I wanted to know more about Parker's job and really hated her boss, as you were supposed to, but he's almost cartoonishly "evil." Rhys makes some very harshly judgey comments about sex workers when he confronts Parker about her "whoring" out his brother.
I listened to Outmatched on audio book because I wanted those Boston accents, and it took me a bit to get in the groove with the male narrator. I did not care for his "female" voices and his narration was very staccato at times. I did like the female narrator, so a bit of a mixed bag.
