I've read several "fake fiance" books and this was one of my favorite. It's well written, funny, and light hearted. There wasn't a lot of analyzing or self doubt to drag this story down.

If you read this as a stand alone, there is no doubt you will adore Chris. However if you read this as a series you will appreciate his personal growth.

Chris reminds me of Deadpool. His humor and carefree attitude is annoying but not frustrating. I liked that he was able to project an alpha male aura without the usual stubbornness and irrational jealousy that usually comes with it.

Belle wasn't anything special for me. However from personal experience when you have one half of a couple that has a strong personality, you need the other half to be more rational and laid back. She was a realist and I did appreciate that.

It was a solid story and a good read. This would be perfect for a flight.

I wasn't sure what to expect from a book with such an assuming title. You know what they say about assuming right?? I thought maybe this was going to be a NSF sex crazed erotic book.

So when it turned out to be a really sweet and funny love story with strong family ties I was pleasantly surprised. Both Bruce and Natasha are likable, caring, relatable individuals.

Don't get me wrong, Bruce was definitely an asshole for a chunk of the book. However with his POV it was nice to know his motivations and insecurities and helped me not roll my eyes so hard that they got stuck in the back of my head. I also loved how his brother could so easily push his buttons or call him on his shit. Bruce is a good man and not in a sexy (which he is) hero way but just kind hearted in general and I appreciated that.

What I liked about Natasha is that she was so incredibly clueless. Her clumsiness wasn't oversold. She wasn't Mr. Bean but she had her moments. The faux pas were what made her endearing. I also liked that she was inexperienced and was able to communicate that without embarrassment. And that her lack of experience didn't turn get turned into a 50 shades kink thing.

Overall I really liked this story and hope the rest of the series is an enjoyable.

The beginning of this book was difficult for me. I'm not hating, it was funny and cute... It was also very cliché. I felt like I was re-reading another book and for me that was a turn off. With that said, I believe the rest of the story was unique and entertaining.

This is the 5th book I've read by this author this week. One of the things I liked about the previous stories was that there was not a lot of drawn out self reflection or analytical bullshit. Unfortunately for me this story had a decent chunk of both. Again this isn't bad, however I wanted a light hearted fun read and was not prepared for the characters mainly William to be feeling some kind of way. However at a risk of contradicting myself, once the heavier feelings/thoughts were introduced I was hoping that the conflict with the antagonist was going to be a bit darker and was a bit disappointed that it wasn't. But I also am True Crime obsessed and may have been fantasizing about all the possible scenarios that could have played out.

William is funny and persistent. His 'medical condition" was unexpected and entertaining. Sadly he did remind me of other billionaire goofballs portrayed by other authors. There wasn't really anything that set him apart. But that's not a bad thing, it could just be me being overly analytical.

Hailey was adorable, however the constant reminder that YES she's a virgin was a bit annoying. My family speaks very candidly about sex so I get that her virginity would be discussed however having her sister, brother, cousin's best friend's girlfriend's niece, the grandma, dog, neighbor, zookeeper, and who knows else constantly bring it up was ridiculous. I get that this is fiction but I was waiting for someone to hang a sign.

I don't think I would recommend this book. It's not bad, but it's not unique or memorable. I hope the rest of the series picks up.

That feeling you get when someone ironically pulls out a basket full of puppies. That is the best way to describe the energy of this book. Mix that with a dash of belly laughs from the best buds on some tween show getting into hijinks and you will understand how adorably wholesome this story was.

This is not a panty melting story. It is one of chasing dreams, making sacrifices, finding compromises, and having a gang of quirky rich friends that enable you to get away with shit that would land normal people in prison.

Ryan overall reminded me of the nice jock from the teen rom com. A Freddie Prince if you will. He was so sweet and insecure. Nothing alpha about him though. Not even a teeny tiny alpha moment. WHICH is fine... not all romantic leads need to be alphas... I suppose. Overall he was a genuine likable guy.

My ONLY disappointment is that, in a previous book he dropped due to low blood sugar. It was said he does that from time to time and just pops up like it was no big deal. I was waiting for that moment in this book which is HIS story and it never happened. I feel like this was an opportunity missed.

Emily... sweet, kind hearted, forgiving, Emily. I can't say that there was anything memorable about her. She wasn't unique or funny. But I LOVED her drive. It was nice to see that there was open communication and that she stayed the course.

All of their merry friends were funny and carried most of the story. If I watched this in a movie theatre I'm sure I would walk away talking about Kevin Hart and Rebel Wilson and not even remember the name of the actress who played Emily. Sorry not sorry. Had it not been for the friend antics this book could have gone south fast. Thankfully that did not happen.

HUGE shout out to the author for breaking the pattern from the previous books in the series. FATE was the only antagonist, I appreciated that there was no jealous ex or unhinged stalker, as I said above this wasn't panty melting but it had it's moments and I'm glad that there wasn't a big focus on either parties sexual experience or inexperience like first two.

This was a cute, heartwarming, made for TV story.

This was a quick cute read. It had some romantic moments, an endless supply of poop and dildo talk with a less than exciting ending. It was kind of a let down because there were promises of high level villiany but it wasn't really that great or bad ass.

I had already loved Lilith from the previous books. I had hoped her pursuit and love story was going to MORE. Liam is an idiot. He wasn't magnetic, funny, or special.

I will give this story props for being completely different from the previous books.

If read as a stand alone then you will have no complaints. This is a decent story. Quick, cute, not too funny, really nothing special.

If you are reading this as part of the Objects of Attraction series you will be a bit irritated. The author missed the mark. She set up jokes that never came, she completely ignored a pregnancy she wrote into a previous book, and this is the second book where she fails to deliver promised revenge. I mean sure it's there but at a small scale boring level.

This couple is a bit boring. Grammy is the only person of interest. If I had been reading this as a stand alone and didn't have certain expectations I would have been fine. But I am emotionally invested in this series and was left feeling some kind of way.

This was a lot funnier than the previous in the series. William as always steals the show in every book he's in. I can't say that there were any memorable moments, but it was a sweet love story. Nell was adorable and Harry was likable.

I am so mad that I did not read this book sooner. I was getting discouraged because the past few books seemed to be going away from the overall story line of the crazy doctor and Leo's rouge sons and mentor. I never ever should have slept on this. It was hilarious and spoiler we finally get to see what happens when there are two immortals with the same possible lifemate!!!

I was entertained at all times. Jess is so quirky, open, likable, and is put through so much shit yet tries so hard to remain positive and grounded. Raf is the first man in the series that is described more than once as non-traditionally handsome. It was comical and a good change. Personality wise he didn't really do it for me. But he wasn't a wet blanket either.

The supporting characters made the book for me. I'm very happy.

Originally I was turned off by the premise of this "love story", the description sounded a bit too Jerry Springer for me. I wasn't sure why we needed a sleeping with daddy novel. Shouldn't those types of taboos remain in short erotic stories or armature porn?? However after reading Punk 57 and Tryst Six Venom, both of which will haunt you for weeks after reading; I came to the conclusion that Penelope Douglas knows what the fuck she's doing and I need to read every thing she has published and trust she won't disappoint.

This book was sooo good. If I was not such a prude and a bit uncomfortable with society's unwritten rule of not crushing on your boyfriend's dad, I probably would not have skipped over some of the earlier chapters. Now that I've finished and am pleased with this book, I will likely go back and read what I skipped so it can be filed in my spank bank.

Jordan is NOT a hoochie. She is not a damaged girl with daddy issues. She intelligent, strong, hardworking, and positive. I liked her very much. I also really liked her sister.

Cole was a bit of a hot mess, spoiled, and selfish, but his growth is so admirable and familiar.

I really enjoyed and almost preferred reading from Pike's perspective. At no point did I ever feel like he was a dirty old man or that he didn't love his son.

The epilogue is what pushed this from a 3 star to a 4 star book. I love that this story was so well written. It's not kinky or dirty or taboo. I encourage anyone who is on the fence about reading this to do so. It's better than a Lifetime Movie.

This book was dark and dirty and I loved every bit of it.
