Publisher's Summary

Two lonely hearts.

Just once, Alex Emmerling would like to be someone's first choice.

She's strong-willed and spunky, but she's left picking up the pieces from her ex's lies and manipulations, and daydreaming about taking a scalpel to his scrotum.

Flying under the radar is what Riley Walsh does best.

He's laid-back and loyal, but he wants the most off-limits woman in his world, and nothing will ever make that a reality.

An arrangement of mutual benefit.

Two months, four dates.

Five, if things go well.

Five at the most.

But possibly six.

Definitely no more than six dates.

Only the appearance of a romantic relationship is required, and they expect nothing more from their time together. There will be none of those benefits involved.

One wild weekend.

After waking up in bed together - very naked and even more hungover - the terms and conditions of their arrangement no longer apply. Now they're faced with something riskier than exposing their fake relationship: Letting go of the past and zipping up the future.

Some things have to fall apart before they can be put back together.

Loved hearing Rileys story

4 ⭐️
2🌶 I wish we got a view of the whole drunk night once he remembered

Loved listening to Rileys story - some parts had me laughing, feeling the secondhand embarrassment in this book especially the photo incident I was laughing so hard at that part. This book didn't really go in and out of the past like the other stories related closely but it was his story and I LOVED how Before Girl and In a Jam is mixed in this world - now I want to reread the other books to see if the Walsh made any cameos and I didn't realize because I read this series after.

Favorite quote : You're clumsy in the streets but a beast in the sheets
