About this listen
Two women, one fake relationship & a fall they'll never forget. Bella Gold needs money for college, so when she hears of an agency that pays you to date people in return for large sums of cash she signs up. She knows what everyone’s thinking but she doesn’t take off her clothes, even if she wanted to. The only thing that happens is some hand holding and honest conversation. If she’s being honest, she feels bad for how lonely these people are.
Enter Dylan Marsh, a long time co executive at To Be Read Publishing. When her boss comments for the billionth time that she’s attending the parties alone, she decides to hire someone to help. The last thing she wants to do is date anyone her age or get married anytime soon, but maybe a few dates with a beautiful woman would get her boss off her back. As soon as Dylan meets Bella, it’s love at first sight. For Bella, it’s more of confusion, as she was expecting a man.
Dylan gives Bella a proposition she can’t turn down, pretend to date her for a few months and she’ll pay for her college tuition. At first Bella thinks it’s a prank set up by her best friends, but the more she gets to know Dylan, the more they surprise each other. Will Dylan be able to convince Bella to fall in love with her for real? Or will Bella cash the check and not look back?

When Holly's best friend Tori takes her to a dance for lesbians only, she realizes that Tori is gently trying to push her out of the closet. While it was true that Holly had been trying to come to terms with her growing attraction toward women, no one expected Holly to take one look at the mysterious Reyna and fall hopelessly in lust.

Public Relations expert Emery Bates has exactly one problem she's willing to admit, and it's that she doesn't have a girlfriend to take as her date to a wedding. Not because she needs a girlfriend, but because she needs an easier way to come out to college friends she hasn't seen in five years. Her job is about controlling the narrative, and as she sees it, there's no reason why that can't extend to her personal life. When her ends up single a few weeks before the wedding, Emery realizes inviting Jordan along and faking romance for a week in Hawaii could be perfect for both of them.

A Cute Feel Good Story With Lots of Spice
I really enjoyed listening to Dylan and Bella’s story. The chemistry was there and the spice was an absolute plus!
The narration was a little over the top and didn’t feel realistic but I was still able to get through the book.
If you’re looking for a cute book with lots of spice, you’ll find it here!

Wish it had been longer…
I love a good fake relationship and I really enjoyed this story. Characters were well developed and the narration enhanced the story. If you enjoy a well written, skillfully narrated, low angst, age gap sapphic romance, this is the book for you. Oh, and spice…there was definitely spice!!

Not bad, but lacking
It seemed the flow of the story was lacking. Like it was a series of scenes cut together, but lacking something (maybe depth). The stilted feeling was also apparent in the narration. I have listened to this narrator before and know she does good work, but this on seemed to lack nuances.
I dropped the audiobook with an hour left; the MCs hooked up, and then the following chapter opened with a 'I'm going to pretend it didn't happen'. That may help drive a story further, but it's just not a direction I'm interested in going.

Cute story that puts Rom-Coms in a twist!
First of all, I’m not much for Rom-Coms but the storyline was intriguing. I thought yeah, we’ll have the basic make the other person pretend to be your partner while you pay them and later it’s a happy ending because both fall madly in love during the pretend, but no. This book has twists and turns and uncertainty at almost every chapter. The narrator brilliantly describes the scene as if you were right there with the characters. Beautifully written, characters were fully developed, and the ending? It made me feel like there should be a series attached so the story can go on. I’m curious to now what tricks author Shannon Connor has up her sleeve for future books.

the reading was hard to tell which character was speaking. "I" was used too much. I only made it through 5 chapters. couldn't listen to any more... maybe it would be a better read that audio
