Synopsis

Wild child Jade Easler has never met a man she didn't like, but there's only been one she thought about keeping. And now he's back in town . . . right after she's slept with charming Hollywood up-and-comer, Dean Hartley. The fastest way to get her ex's attention? Show up on the arm of a sexy younger man. She just hopes Dean is up for the task of fake boyfriend . . .

When he hooked up with his beautifully curvy photographer, Dean thought he'd only get the one night she promised. But when she needs help convincing a former flame she's ready to settle down, who is he to argue? He'll get to show her—in as many ways as possible—that giving up crazy, hot sex for a stale, predictable life isn't what she wants. And prove that what she needs is him.

Contains mature themes.

About Julie Particka

Julie Particka was told to get serious about her future in junior high. Several years after getting a bachelor's degree in chemistry, she realized being serious was overrated and went back to her first love-writing. Now rather than spending her days in the drudgery of the lab or teaching science to high school students, she disappears into worlds of her own creation where monsters sometimes roam, but true love still conquers all.

She can most often be located in the Detroit area with her favorite minions (the ones who know her as Mom) where she is currently hatching a plot for world domination. It involves cookies for everyone, so she's pretty sure there's no way it can fail . . . except the minions keep eating the cookies.

Goodreads review by Christine on April 30, 2016

There were a lot of things to like about this, but none were the heroine, Jade. She's supposed to be this curvy, confident career woman but Jade is instead immature, self-absorbed, inconsistent, and, frankly, bratty. I kept wondering why Dean, a much younger upcoming tv actor, was so gaga for her, a......more

Kitty's review posted at Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews Playing the Perfect Boyfriend was a fun but predictable story. While the Jade and Dean connection weaved an amusing and interesting story, Isak is still a little bit of a mystery. He didn’t play a prevalent role throughout the book even though he......more

Goodreads review by Chu on June 06, 2016

Who can tame Jade Easler? Jade had enjoyed her singlehood and all the perks that comes with it, but with her friends settling down and having lives of their own – she suddenly felt that there was more to life than playing around. But there was only one man she thought of keeping, and he went away. No......more

This review was originally posted on Cocktails and Books Hollywood romances are one of my guilty pleasures. Add in a fake romance and I'm all over it. But PLAYING THE PERFECT BOYFRIEND fell flat to me...mainly because Jade, the heroine, wasn't very likable. Jade is a woman who is comfortable in her sk......more

Goodreads review by Angela on June 04, 2016

I have to say I really loved this story because it wasn’t a typical girl wanting to settle down and have 2.5 kids in home with a white picket fence. Jade is a free single woman unashamed of having an active sex life. She loves her life but isn’t 100% content, she just knows she has no desire to sett......more
