When a soldier with a troubled past and a struggling songwriter agree to a marriage of convenience for the military benefits, neither expects much after saying "I do". Then tragedy strikes, and the line between what's real and what's pretend begins to blur in this smart and surprising romance perfect for fans of Nicholas Sparks and Jojo Moyes.
Cassie Salazar and Luke Morrow couldn't be more different. Sharp-witted Cassie works nights at a bar in Austin, Texas, to make ends meet while pursuing her dream of becoming a singer/songwriter. Luke is an army trainee, about to ship out for duty, who finds comfort in the unswerving discipline of service. But a chance encounter at Cassie's bar changes the course of both their lives.
Cassie is drowning in medical bills after being diagnosed with diabetes. When she runs into her old friend Frankie, now enlisted in the army, she proposes a deal: She'll marry him in exchange for better medical insurance, and they can split the increased paycheck that comes with having a "family". When Frankie declines, his attractive but frustratingly intense friend Luke volunteers to marry Cassie instead. What she doesn't know is that he has desperate reasons of his own to get married. In this unforgettable love story, Cassie and Luke must set aside their differences to make it look like a real marriage...unless, somewhere along the way, it becomes one....

Overall I really loved the storyline, just not as good as the movie. It drew on too long in the middle and there was such little build to the romance, it could have been a great book if those things were different.
The movie was better…

I loved the movie and have watched over 4 times.
I liked the ending of this story vs the ending of the book. While watching the movie I didn't understand why they ended it that way.
narration: I felt Luke narration (Kyle Mason) did a great job. His take on Luke was spot on. Rhe narrator that did Cassie (Shanya Thibodeaux) voice sounded like an old lady. Cassie is suppose to be in her twenties and it sounded like a 50 year old was speaking for her. That is the one reason it took so long for me to get through this. Shayna did a great job voicing over for Cassies mother and neighbor.
I disliked the love triangle story line and that story line the movie used with Just Cassie and Luke just drew me in right away.
