Top neurosurgeon Samantha Thomson needs to get married fast and is tightlipped as to why. And with over $200,000 on offer to tie the knot, no questions asked, cash-strapped ER nurse Hayden Perez isn't about to demand answers.
The deal is only for a year of marriage, but Hayden's going into it knowing it will be a nightmare. Sam is complicated, rude, kind of cold, and someone Hayden barely tolerates at work, let alone wants to marry. The hardest part is that Hayden has to convince everyone around them that they're madly in love and that racing down the aisle together is all they've ever wanted.
What could possibly go wrong?

G Benson has written such a comical yet enriching romantic story that kept me enthralled the entire time.
The narrator Tanya Eby did such a magnificent job telling this story that I wish there were many more lesbian audio books read by her.
The only bad thing was that It finished and I wanted it to go on forever.
5 stars all the way. Highly recommended.
Marvellous

This time, I listened to the audiobook version, and it was also wonderful. I really liked Tanya Eby’s narration and the different voices, including Hayden’s nephew (children are not easy). I usually like the fake-romance trope but it has to have a believable reason. If it needs me to suspend my disbelief, I might still enjoy it if the writing is good but it won’t be the same. I think this one has the best reason I have read. I won’t spoil but when the reader, along with Hayden, finds out why Sam needed that fake marriage, I loved Sam even more. But I’m getting ahead of myself here.
Hayden Pérez is a nurse in New York who, despite working as much as she can and being very careful with her expenses, is struggling financially. A lot of what she earns goes to her family in Miami. When she stumbles upon an ad on craigslist looking for a temporary bride, the idea seems ludicrous at first. Yet the promise of money pushes her to answer, only to discover that the author of the ad is Samantha Thomson, the most arrogant and rudest surgeon at the hospital.
I love Hayden, even more with Tanya Eby’s voice, which I thought was perfect. Hayden is hard-working, loving, responsible but she’s also a smartass and I love that aspect of her. She has a wonderful if complicated relationship with her family and it breaks my heart every time she feels guilty for not visiting enough, not sharing the burden, not doing more when the money she sends every month is already helping tremendously.
On the surface, Sam is the opposite. She’s older, always in control. She doesn’t talk about her family, she has no friends. She’s cold. Once Hayden gets to know her, however, she finds that she’s really kind-hearted and more socially awkward than rude. I more than once wondered whether she could be on the autism spectrum, especially when she explains that she takes her cues from others, or if her attitude stems from her upbringing.
With small delicate touches that never feel fragile, Benson tackles issues such as Alzheimer’s or homophobia with both plausibility and finesse. Bonus points for making Hayden pansexual and her best friend Luce non-binary with just the right amount of explanation and without making a big deal of either. That’s just the way things are, and Luce is only one of excellent secondary characters, who bring angst, tension and comic relief to what is overall an awesome novel.
Wonderful story & characters, excellent narration!
