Publisher's Summary

Indulge in an all-new recording of this best-selling standalone romance, now narrated in a duet performance by Shane East and Vanessa Edwin!

It was only supposed to be a marriage of convenience....

Let me just say, this whole part-time lover thing was her idea. I’d have gone all in from the start, but hey, when a gorgeous, brilliant woman invites you into her bed, and only her bed...well, I said yes. But then, one hysterical phone call from my brother later, begging me to find myself a wife so grandfather’s business stays in the family, and I need a promotion with Elise.

Turns out a full-time husband suits her needs too, and a temporary marriage of convenience ought to do the trick, until we can simply untie the knot....

As long as no one finds out....

As long as no one gets hurt....

As long as no one falls in love....

But our ending was one I never saw coming.

What the critics say

"East portrays Christian as utterly captivated by Elise. His warm voice also holds notes of respect for her, and his English accent is a pleasant foil for Edwin's melting French intonation. In this dialogue-driven story, Edwin and East are completely convincing as two hopeless romantics." (AudioFile)

Fabulous

Another one hit out of the park. I love all of the unique stories crafted by the author and dual narration is amazing drawing you even further into the story. Kudos to both Narrators.

You HAVE to read this

I LOVED THIS STORY!!
I couldn't stop listening. I listened to the whole story in one day and I wasn't ready to say goodbye to it when it was over.
The narration is perfect and the characters are engaging, fun and I already miss them! So much so that I immediately bought the others on this series.

Do yourself a favour and go read it now. Take the day off work, pour a cup of tea and fall in love.

I shall be relisting to this story over and over again.

Love every second of it!

I’m a big fan of due narration. And this one hit all the spots! I’m on a month of audio books in my book journey and this one has been by far my favourite I’ve listened to. And the bloopers at the end was an extra bonus I really enjoyed. I’ve noticed with other books when it’s a due narration there is a pause between the two MC because they are recorded separately and added to the narration later so I loved the fact that this was recorded together. The Voice actors were amazing and I’m officially hooked on them. 10/10 over all. Which is a big feat for me when leaving reviews this is only the forth book I’ve left a full 5 stars for since January. And I’ve read/listened to over 100 books this year and 37 audio books this month. The story was captivating and I couldn’t stop listening. My husband even listened with me which he doesn’t do.

What a fun Story!

This is a great, steamy romance done in the best narration style (both narrators reading their lines in every chapter). I really like the way the author writes her male characters - that they also have a full range of emotions and that they really care about the romantic interest, especially in the bedroom ;). I hope they record all future books in this style.

I especially loved the blooper's portion afterwards and listening to the banter between Shane East and Vanessa Edwin.

Great Narration with a unique story

Thus book was a nice treat. It is very different from other romance stories and that gives it 5 stats in my book.

Loved it in every way.

Very enjoyable story and made even better by the dual narrative. I was interested through the entire read and the narrators were perfect. The addition of the bloopers was a wonderful ending.

Great Book

I consider myself the biggest critic and was surprised that I could stop listening. Actors were amazing and story was intoxicating.
