Who forgets marrying a football player? Me, apparently. Turns out countless shots and a bad breakup lead to questionable decision making. But waking up in Vegas with a ring on my finger beside a hot, naked man is hard to ignore. I married Parker Wilder. Thanks to our quickie nuptials, I’ll get my inheritance, and he’ll get his family and their well-intentioned meddling off his back.

Forgetting the wedding was the easy part. Being married to him is a whole different story. Parker is too … everything. Chiseled by the gods good-looking. A heartbreaking kind of broody. The kind of man you know will wreck you for all others. Good thing this is all pretend. And oh, how we pretend. We pretend ourselves right into me ripping the clothes off his body.

It’s all fun and fake marriage until the day he gets a knock on the door with the surprise of a lifetime. Until the bomb goes off and we’re left to pick up the pieces. Until the pretending stops and we’re left with only one question: was any of it real?

Absolute perfection. I’ve read and loved every one of the Wilder’s stories, and every one of the Ward sister’s too - but this one is the very best of them all. And the narration - best one I’ve ever listened to. The emotion poured into the performances had me captivated from the start, and the duet format made it even better. I’m really going to miss this family but am so grateful that I picked up that first book.

Perfection.

Somewhat spoiler: The story was cute. Predictable. I thought I was going to hate the baby troupe but it was different than I expected.
The female narrator was really good. But that male. Good lord. His dialogue wasn’t bad but the narration. It was like listening to someone read monotoned stereo instructions. I almost DNFed but I pushed through.

Cute but that male narrator

Good story with unexpected plot twist. Characters are easy to like although some of their conversations were a bit repetitive. Overall recommend/ looking now to find author’s other available books.

Enjoyable, good storyline.

I’ve been looking forward to Parker’s book since the first in the series, and KS didn’t disappoint! I never would have expected it to play out as it did, but I can’t imagine it better any other way. Both Parker and Anya have a lot of baggage to deal with, and the way KS approached each character’s introspection was impactful. Their chemistry was off-the-charts, and both are intrinsically good people…which made for an excellent HEA!

I love this 3rd generation tie-in to the Washington Wolves series! If you haven’t read the series, I recommend you start there, followed by the Ward Sisters series, then the Wilder Family. Or, at least read the two books in the family tree for This Wild Heart, The Marriage Effect and Forbidden.

Both narrators were new to me. Their performances were excellent! I was totally lost in Anya and Parker. Finished the book within a day!

Loved Parker’s Story!

Loved the dialogue at the bombshell (appropriate given title that started the extended series) plot event. Real, very real. This book will catch the reader more deeply because the love interests are partners in life’s twists and turns from the beginning. (The male narrator is really good, but they digitally manipulate it and lose the pace altogether.)

The Best of Good Series
