About this listen
Fake dating my sworn enemy to make my ex so jealous he can't see straight? Worth it.
Silas and I agree on one thing, and one thing only: my ruthless, heartless, narcissistic jerk of an ex-fiancé needs to be taken down a notch.
So we do what anyone would do: we pretend to be a couple.
Even though Silas and I are polar opposites. Silas is a loud, cheerful, over the top showboat. He’s his hometown’s golden boy, the Marine who came back to rescue kittens from trees and walk old ladies across the street.
And me? I'm the awkward new girl who freezes up around strangers and can’t make small talk to save my life.
It shouldn’t work. We can barely have a conversation without arguing. There's no way we should be friends, let alone dating, except... Everyone believes it.
Especially my ex.
Now I'm having way too many real fantasies about the man who gets on my last nerve. My fake boyfriend is starting to feel a whole lot like a real one.
The kisses feel real.
The way he protects me feels real.
The night we spend together in a hotel bed feels very real.
This was supposed to be fake, but I think I might have fooled myself most of all.
The One Month Boyfriend is the first book in the Wildwood Society series, and can be listened to as a total standalone. It's for fans of high heat enemies-to-lovers romantic comedies, and features two enemies who fake date for revenge, a quirky, charming small town, a former military cinnamon roll hero, a grumpy heroine who's charmed despite herself, anxiety and PTSD representation, and plenty of steamy scenes. Of course, there's an HEA.

Story
I don’t love him. I don’t even like him.I just want him. Eli Loveless was my nemesis from the first day of kindergarten until we graduated high school. Everything I did, he had to do better—and vice versa. The day he left town was the best day of my life. Ten years later, the day he came back was the worst. Now he’s my co-worker. Grown-up Eli Loveless is sexy as sin. He’s hotter than asphalt in the summer. The irritating kid I once knew is gone, and he’s been replaced by a man with green eyes, perfect abs, and a cocky smile. It’s bad that I want him. It’s worse that he wants me back.

Story
Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why. Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven. She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it. She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it or why. For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.

Her family's beyond strict, but for a girl who's so innocent, she's anything but sweet.

Story
Once I saw Marnie Long, a sassy, sultry, charismatic older woman in a bar, I couldn’t peel my eyes off her. I wanted her. At least, for one night. I’m way too busy with my career these days for anything more. As it turned out, after recently getting burned, Marnie was on the same page as me—all she wanted was one night of fun. I was happy to be of service. What I didn’t expect during our night together, however, was how deeply we connected. And how much I was dying to see her again the next morning.

If Renn Brewer would’ve asked me to marry him, I would’ve said no. Why? One, his reputation precedes him. His name is in the headlines at least once a month. Two, he’s not just my brother’s best friend. They’re teammates. And three, I’m in my self-care era. Unfortunately, a version of me equates self-care with bad choices.

Rule number one for having a one-night stand: Don’t fall for the girl. After a lengthy dating slump, I finally met someone who sparked my interest. Well, first the sparks flew when we argued. Later in the evening those sparks ignited into something more. I was drawn to Devyn, in a way I hadn’t felt in a really long time. Needless to say, I was disappointed when she abruptly left after our amazing night together. I couldn’t stop thinking about her. But she hadn’t even given me her number. In a city with eight-million people, I figured I’d never see Devyn again.

When people pass me on the sidewalk, they might squint, but most of them don’t scream “Lucy Rhodes” and ask about my love of Lucky Charms or how my broken toe healed. Prince Liam - my stalking his Instagram - that’s just for fun. It’s my dirty little secret.

He's a gritty, grease-covered mechanic, and a single daddy. Sweet, right? Plus, he's looking for a nanny - and I am desperately looking for a job. Sounds like the perfect deal. Only he's a jerk. An uncivilized, hulking brute. Zero manners. Zero interest in making me feel welcome in his home. Downright rude. But oh, so sexy. And I need the job. I can do this.

Not to mention a fulfilling teaching career of wrangling second graders.

Waking up to a text asking why you stood up your blind date is not the best way to start the day, especially when the man in question is standing half-dressed in your kitchen. Maybe Dakota Newton shouldn’t have assumed the gorgeous man with a devastating smile standing outside the coffee shop was her date. She probably - okay, she definitely shouldn’t have slept with him, regardless of how hot the chemistry between them was. But how could she have known Mr. Right was actually Mr. Wrong?

I was traded - yeah, that phone call - traded from my longtime team of over 10 years to not just any team...to my childhood rivals, the Chicago Rebels. I was completely and utterly screwed, right? Wrong. The trade was the least of my concerns. I met a girl, Natalie. She was perfect, but I swore I would never get involved with anyone during the season. It was too complicated. But can you believe I had zero restraint when it came to this girl?

Growing up the daughter of notorious treasure hunter and absentee father Duke Wilder left Lily without much patience for the profession…or much money in the bank. But Lily is resourceful, and now uses Duke’s coveted hand-drawn maps to guide tourists on fake treasure hunts through the red rock canyons of Utah. It pays the bills but doesn’t leave enough to fulfill her dream of buying back the beloved ranch her father sold years ago, and definitely not enough to deal with the sight of the man she once loved walking back into her life with a motley crew of friends ready to hit the trails.

The One Month Boyfriend
The One Month Boyfriend is a funny book about Silas and Kat. Silas and Kat have a history so when they run into each other again, neither is happy to see the other again.
When both of them find themselves in a pickle, they decide to embark on a fake relationship.
As we get to know the characters, we realize there is more to both of them. Both of them have been through some things.
Can they help each other get through their troubles? Can they get this other person out of their lives for good? Will a fake relationship turn into something else?
I loved listening to this audiobook. The narrators were great. Silas and Kat had some great moments that had me laughing out loud.

Enjoyable, believable, relatable
I enjoyed this story enough to read it twice (electronically then this audiobook). What made it work for me twice? Because the author made me believe in this romance, how two people with such a messed-up backstory (years before this story begins she was his college teacher and he failed her class) and serious personal issues (anxiety for her and PTSD for him) and strengths could be so good together. I believed in how they both could fall into a limited-term fake relationship. After all, she needed to one-up the ex-fiancé who treated her horribly and who had also been a jerk to him, and he needed to appear more stable in his law firm. The story balanced the dark and the light, both in their own personalities and in each other, but also in the story overall, all in a small-town setting filled with gossip and friendships. The friction between the characters and their eventual bond was convincing. Not only that, but despite the characters' difficulties the book is a fun read/listen and the narrators' distinctive (but not over-the-top) voices brought the story even more alive. Recommended!

Silas and Kat!
This is Silas and Kat's story. We got to know Silas from the Loveless brothers series. He's that crazy best friend that would take a special kind of woman to put up with him. Kat was a brilliant choice for him. Silas himself described her as teeth and claws at one point and it really does fit her. She's socially awkward, says things she probably shouldn't, and yet it made her exactly what Sila's needed. This was a couple that you never thought would fit together. They seemed more enemies than anything, but once they are forced to be together, it made them really take a look at each other and see more than the surface. I liked that.

Lovely romance
A great mix of fun and serious. This book takes two people with lots of mental health problems and manages to tackle their struggles while also being gentle and heartwarming. Kat, especially, is wonderful. She's got social anxiety and is often grumpy. She reads as autistic to me, and I found a lot of her struggles super relatable and spot-on in the portrayal. Even though Kat and Silas start out disliking each other and kind of stumble into their fake-dating relationship, as soon as they start to get to know each other it becomes clear that they're a good match. They challenge each other, prop each other up in difficult times, and are super understanding and patient when it comes to trauma and healing. Silas's relationship to his friends is also wonderful. I love to see depictions of healthy male friendships, and it sets up future books in the series nicely.
4.5 stars - half knocked off for early comments from Silas calling Kat "android"/implying lack of humanity
I read the audiobook, and the narrators were competent and easy to listen to.

More than I expected
I was given an opportunity to listen to the audio for an honest review.
First, I want to say I was pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed the story. I felt that Kat and Silas were fleshed out characters who had regular struggles. Kat's anxiety and Silas' PTSD were dealt with in a way that I felt was realistic. And while these characters had heavy subject matters, it did not detract from the plot. I appreciated the slow build for their romance. It was not an instant since "we're faking it let's hit it" scenario. Instead it was a growth in friendship and trust that led to their relationship building. And I loved the hotel scene. One thing that I did not expect to encounter, but felt was done so well was how found families worry over one another. This was especially true with Silas and his friends. I loved that they were supportive of one another and quick to run and be there for one another.
The narrator were new to me. I was impressed with how well they presented the story.

Captivating Read
Loved this book! This was my first Roxie Noir book and I absolutely devoured it. I love the relationship and banter between them. The story had me captivated and feeling every emotion from laughter, to shock to happiness and empathy. I really appreciate the fact that there was also no third act breakup! Absolutely amazing read from Roxie, I can’t wait to devour more of her backlist now

Worth the wait!
I've been waiting for Silas's story for so long and boy did it deliver 💜
While The One Month Boyfriend deals with a lot of heavier issues, this book has so much light! I really appreciate that so much of the book was dedicated to Silas and Kat spending time together on-page, going on their "fake" dates so we got to watch these two fall in love in real time. The two MCs have a little bad blood between them at the start of the book because of the way some things transpired in the past but once we have the whole story, we can sympathize with both the characters. The two are complicated, hot, reluctant to let anyone get too close, and so so deserving of love.
Kat has anxiety, especially social anxiety, and I really liked the way this was handled by the author. I have the same kind of anxiety (though not as bad) so it was nice to come across this rep in a way I could (somewhat) relate to without feeling like it was a caricature.
I've been intrigued by Silas from his very first cameo in Enemies With Benefits and gah, I loved his complicated mind! His friendship with Levi is still one of my favorite things about Break The Rules. I also love that we got to see Javier doing better, and Levi and June's few cameos 💜
The audio was also wonderful and immersive, and I was hooked from the very start.

Silas and Kat are perfect!
I read this book when it first came out and I loved it. I just listened to the audio book and I LOVED it! Scott Rose and Nara Austen brought this book to life in the most wonderful way! I highly recommend this audio book!!

An Unlikely (but Amazing) Pretend Boyfriend Duo!!
Silas needs to “be dating” to appear more stable for his law firm boss. Kat was jilted, and now her ex will be sharing an office with her for the next month. Their needs are similar, but an earlier interaction makes them both mistrust the other. It doesn’t hurt that Silas greatly dislikes the ex for other reasons.
Silas has PTSD, while Kat has anxiety in groups. Another similarity for these two. This was an amazing journey for both characters. There is drama and humor, and the interactions will have you glued to the page until you reach “the end”. I can highly recommend this story.
Read this book when it first was published. I love "listening" to prior reads. I had forgotten just how witty and snarky this one was - the narrators are divine!
