About this listen

What’s better than a revenge date? A revenge husband.

Pro quarterback Ryan Ralston has always known two things. First, he’s desperately in love with his best friend Emme Ahlborg. Second–and most importantly–he still has no idea how to tell her. The marriage pact they made in their senior yearbook was the closest he ever came.

Years passed and Emme forgot about their promise. Ryan never did, especially not on his thirtieth birthday. Emme can’t catch a break. Always unlucky in love, her cheating ex is a groomsman in her best friend’s wedding—and there’s no way she’s showing up alone. Ryan offers her the one thing better than a wedding date: a revenge husband. And he’s not just any fake husband but the NFL’s brightest star…and in need of serious reputation rehab. Playing the part of the happy couple comes easy and soon enough, the lines between real and fake blur. They disappear altogether when there’s just one bed.

All Ryan has to do is save Emme from her ex, find her step-sister an internship, and get his wife to fall in love with him—or fumble the one thing he’s ever wanted: her heart.

Content notes: incidences and discussion of infidelity, incidence of body shaming, parental estrangement, parental divorce, brief mention of past domestic violence (parent/child), brief mention of past emotional abuse (parent/child), brief mention of parental death (ALS), chronic illness (main character--endometriosis).

Good with a few great moments

Good but not what I was expecting from this author. The story just seems nice meaning not a lot of excitement. The characters are well built and super nice. There are a few moments in here that I just loved! I am not saying what they were but they made me very happy for Emme

I listened to this on audio. At the beginning it was tough especially when Grace and Ben came on. The accent was horrible and I could never tell who was talking. But Grace calmed down and Ben doesn’t speak much after that til near the end. The rest of the story was easy listening.

When the Narrators Make It Just That Much Better

Rose Dioro and Aaron Shedlock did an amazing job bringing these characters to life. Rose’s acting really shined with Emme’s emotions ran high and low. The smooth tone of Aaron’s voice added a refined quality to Ryan. When I read the blurb for this story I knew this would satisfy my love for when the MMC calls the FMC “wife” in the most loving way (it’s my catnip). Overall, I loved this book, but initially, I had a hard time getting into it. I wasn’t sure how I felt about these characters, and it took a few chapters from each of their POVs for me to come around. The more I found out about their respective backstories, the more I understood and fell in love with them.

This story gave me everything I wanted; banter, some really good spicy scenes (a little extra spicy for this author), flawed characters, excellent support characters, character growth, and depth.

Loved it!

Childhood best friends, marriage pack, he fell a LONG time ago, an ex that will truly piss you off, neurodivergent representation (side character), hilarious family chat, third-act breakup. Overall a great read! I really enjoyed it.
