Synopsis

Whitney Carroll is back home in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, after divorcing her low-down, cheating husband. And she has her To Do List all ready to go. First, get a job. Second, just say no to men. And the third? Don't fall for the boss. Oh well, one out of three isn't too bad.

Sam Ellis's to-do list is always work, work, work, and trying to keep his family's legacy alive. And his siblings have had enough of it. Now they're betting that Sam can't keep a girl happy for thirty days. If he loses? He's out as CEO. So Sam's going to make sure he doesn't lose . . . by faking a relationship. And his guy-free assistant might be the perfect accomplice.

Now Whitney's discovering just how not boring her sexy boss—slash secret singer and Skee-Ball champion—is. Their connection is undeniable and completely inconvenient. But when disaster strikes at work, Sam will have to choose between his job . . . or his heart.

The book was fairly quick I did however find that it felt rushed, I wish they would have developed the characters better. Whitney and Sam didn't grab me like some characters tend to do and you are rooting for them, with these two I didn't feel that and I also felt like the issue within families was......more

Goodreads review by Elita on October 19, 2022

I've listenes to this as an audiobook, and if not for the guy making a funny voice when reading women's dialogues maybe it would have been a better book. It just sounded very silly with a lot of clichés. The story itself also seemed a bit rushed and underdeveloped, though much better story line than......more

When I signed up to review this book I was not aware that it's part of a series and that there is another book before this one.
