About this listen

Fake dating my enemy so I can design my dream bakery should be easy...as long as I don't fall in love with him.

Dominic Hardy might be an award-winning architectural engineer with fancy degrees and considerable accolades, but he doesn’t know a thing about baking. He doesn’t even like sugar.

So when my late stepfather’s will states that Dominic Hardy is set to inherit the Pacific Coast Resort he’d painstakingly designed, as long as my bakery can be plopped in the middle of it, it’s no surprise he balks. Yet, my jaw drops when the will further requires us to mutually approve plans for my bakery’s design. His stuffy taste will never mix with my whimsical vibe.

But then Dominic comes to me with a proposal I can’t refuse. He’ll give me everything I want in my bakery as long as I agree to one thing:

Fake date him for five months. Keep his ex away by pretending we’re in love. Smile and stare into his piercing green eyes at a gala or two. Maybe share a kiss. Nothing extreme. Five months of acting in love when I really loathe him and his filthy mouth. Even when he’s using it on me.

This should be a cakewalk. Except there’s a fine line between love and loathing, and I think I’ve made the colossal mistake of blurring it.

Love, love, loooove this one

Read it in a day. CJ Bloom is one of my favorite narrators and Joe Arden never fails. Together they brought to life Shain Rose’s world filled with my favorite elements of a good romance: great spice, HEA love story, real world elements that don’t take you away from the illusion but ground you into the story. I felt like I knew these characters. Definitely recommend.

Hot!

I listened to this book through audible while following along on my kindle. CJ Bloom and Joe Arden did a fantastic job narrating! These two are on my list of favorite narrators!

Dominic is the ultimate alpha male! He has such a dirty mouth! Woooo! Clara is such a people pleaser and never puts herself first. I loved the banter between these two! The two of them challenge each other and I love their dynamic throughout the book. I love how the author represented Clara’s chronic illness! She did a wonderful job! This was a great book overall and I highly recommend!

🧁🏨🍫👗💐🐈‍⬛🌈🖼️🩺

“i was going to crave chocolate for the rest of my life after this woman, i alright knew it.”

“i’m aware. the risks are quite high of losing her, and without her, i lose myself. schedule the tests for me.”

i just have one question for myself. why did i wait this long to read this series??? i am quite literally obsess with the hardy family. i cannot wait to read all of shain rose’s books!

i love clara milton, she truly deserves the world. dominic hardy would literally give her that. the way this man wanted nothing to do with love, but for her, he bend all his rules. he fell so hard for her 🥺

tropes ➞ billionaire / forced proximity / opposites attract / enemies to lovers / fake dating
