Story
Let me list the reasons why dating the sexy, charming pro hockey star is a bad idea: He’s one of my closest friends. All our friends are friends. The wounds I’ve got from past relationships go deep. And so do his. We’re both devoutly single - it’s just safer for the heart that way. But there’s no reason not to bid on the gorgeous, clever athlete at the charity auction this weekend. If I win, it’ll be a "friendsdate".

The one unbreakable rule in the Man Code is this: No matter how beautiful, smart, and clever she is, do not fall in love with your best friend’s woman. Yeah, so I screwed up big time when I fell for her. I might have let my sin of unrequited love slide, given everything that went down in the last few years, but Lulu just walked back into my life as vibrant as ever. And the cards are stacked against me once again. We’re working together, and the last thing I want to do is mess up her life with a forbidden office romance now that she’s finally got the fresh start she deserves.

Story
Look, when I met the sexy, witty Brit on the streets of London last night, I had no idea who he was. He was just that hot guy I wanted to have a drink with, so I asked him out for my first evening in town. One thing almost led to another. After a midnight kiss, we made plans for a whole lot more the next day. But when I unlock the door to my rental in the morning, the English hottie is lounging on the couch like he lives here too. Great. For the next year, I’ll be sharing a tiny flat with the sexiest guy I’ve ever known.

Let me just say - none of this was supposed to happen. I didn't expect the letter to go viral. I didn't think anyone would figure out who Dear Sexy Ex was.

And Dear Sexy Ex, well, it turns out he needs me to save his business. By becoming his fake fiancée.

Let me make a few things clear. I didn’t go to the wedding intending to dance with the best man, to dare him to show me a very sexy pic on his phone, or to accidentally kiss him in the hotel elevator after the reception ended. But things just happen at weddings. The next day, Crosby and I agree to put all those shenanigans behind us. The fun-loving, stupidly gorgeous, all-star baseball player might be my brother’s best friend, but he’s my good friend too and has been for years. I can't risk losing him, even though now I can't stop thinking about how I want him to be my first.

Every bartender should follow one simple rule—don't go home with the customers. That’s been easy for me to stick to, until the night a cocky, confident, and sinfully charming hockey star walks into my bar. This sexy athlete is too hard to resist, especially when he makes it clear how much he wants the “sarcastic, witty, hot AF” guy behind the bar—also known as me.

I’m a rookie, in every sense of the word. But even though I have a wicked crush on the sexy shortstop on my baseball team, I won’t give in to my fantasies about him. I’m here in the majors for the first time to play ball. Not to experience my first time with a man. Trouble is, Declan Steele is sexy, flirty, and now he’s my new workout partner. We’re spending mornings together in the gym, getting to know each other. Our connection is powerful—maybe because we each have our fair share of secrets and scars. Ones we'll both fight to protect.

The trouble is Sloane is smack dab next to me from nine to freaking five. And she's as captivating, brilliant, and sexy as ever, which means I'm taking more than the recommended dosage of office romance temptation every day. Make that every single second, because she's not only "the one" - she's the one who got away.

He's my business partner, my good friend, and the man I've craved for years. But I've resisted the sexy Brit, and I plan to keep up my walls because I've been there, done that, and I know how much it hurts when you let someone into your heart. Then an opportunity comes along for us to snag the business deal of a lifetime. The catch? We need to pretend we're married to pull off this high-stakes deal.

I have to stop replaying the one night I spent with my rival. Trouble is, that white-hot encounter with the other quarterback answered a lot of questions I’ve had about myself, but it also led me into this mess where he hates me. I never showed up for our second date. Since, well, life happened, and the worst part is he’ll never know how much that night meant to me.

When you think about how easy it is to lose keys, phones, sunglasses and your dignity on social media, you might figure it'd be a cinch for me to ditch my V Card. You'd be wrong. At 25, I run a successful business, live in a fantastic apartment, and have fabulous friends to go out with any night of the week. And yet I'm still a card-carrying member of a club I don't want to belong to anymore. Good thing I know just the man for the deflowering job - my brother’s business partner and best friend.

Publisher's Summary
Available in audio first, a dreamy new romantic comedy from number one New York Times best-selling author Lauren Blakely!
Just my luck - my new next door neighbor is a unicorn.
Yep, the British hottie is clearly a mythical man because - get this - he's a sexy, witty, charming, big-hearted single dad.
Who, wait for it, wants to find Mrs. Right and get hitched.
He’s a once-in-a-blue-moon kind of man, and it’s a darn shame I’m not on the market. If I were, his accent alone would melt me. Add in the fact that he's a veterinarian, and my animal-loving heart would be flip flopping.
But my heart's on the mend. I'm a single parent like him, and raising my teenage daughter is my top priority. Plus, falling for a guy who shares your property line is a line you shouldn’t cross.
Still, I'm an outgoing gal, so I do the neighborly thing and offer to be his dating insider.
Surely, I can help this small town’s most eligible bachelor ever navigate his way through all the fantastic single ladies eager to make his acquaintance.
What could possibly go wrong in helping the dream guy next door find his one true love?
So I set him up on one date, two dates, three dates — and I’m about to find out exactly how dangerous my offer is.

Loved this story
I loved this, Lauren Blakely is great and when paired with the amazing Shane East and Vanessa Edwin its even better. Shane is delightful and skilled at bringing his charater to life. Vanessa was beliveable and just as skilled as Shane.
The story was sweet and light. Im glad I decided to listen to it.

✫✫ 4.5 Stars ✫✫
As always, I enjoyed this book because it was a fun sweet & romance with very little drama. The characters were great. I really enjoyed that they get to know each other as friends and it's not just a sexual attraction. They were honest with each other about what they want in life even with their different expectation and in the end they acted like mature adults and they worked it out without a big fuss. That was probably my favorite things about this story was that no one just changed to fit into the other person's box. The relationships between the parents and their kids was great too. I am a sucker for a single parent romance and we get that in spades with this story. I love a feel good romance without all the angst.
The narration was good but I'll be honest I would have LOVED it if it had been duet. I loved Shane as Liam & Ethan and Vanessa as January & Wednesday.

So much eye rolling
This is probably best suited for people who live for Fairy Tales and who love to watch the Hallmark Channel. Definitely not for romcom cynics. I really should have known better.

What a fantastic surprise!
I’m a sucker for a sexy veterinarian and Liam was all that and more. A hot, British single dad with a heart of gold, an unconventional story, and an actual desire to settle down, swoon! I loved that the heroine owned a business in a male dominated field (carpentry) and was independent and content with that. Throw in some kids, dogs, and relatively low angst and I am a happy camper. Absolutely loved this bonus book from the rom-com queen LB. Put a smile on my face on a Monday morning.

I’m Not Crying
Y’all... this one got me out of nowhere.
I love that these characters are a little older (mid-late 30s) and have more to consider than bedroom chemistry. I love the relationship between the them and their kids. I love the scene at the animal shelter.
It’s a good one. It feels real and it was exactly the thing I needed this week.

I cant be the only one
I wanted to like this, I really did. Sadly, it was predictable, I caught myself rolling my eyes so many times, and just not good! We have a 'strong woman' that is happy being single, enter neighbor with a British accent and suddenly she is transformed and doesn't know herself at all. The ending is rushed...the only thing that kept me listening was the narration, it was good background noise.

So much fun
One of my favorite by this author. So nice to read about adults with existing lives finding love and happiness. No major crazy drama. but enough life stuff and emotion to keep it interesting. Plus all good people, some heat, 2 amazing kids and a really nice HEA. Perfect listen for a little mental getaway.

Swoonworthy!
I don't even know where to start with this book. Lauren Blakely has me at a loss for words with a book I am in love with. Maybe it's the characters, or the narration, but I think it may be my favorite of her books this year. An easy listen we have next door neighbors, January and Liam. January divorced living with her high school daughter, she finally has the life she wants. Liam, a single dad moved in as he takes over his father's vet office. Two people,with incredible chemistry but different paths. Will they be able to resist each other? Can they find a happy medium? Fun, flirty and hot, this story pushed all my buttons. I love that it's mature characters and January is a carpenter! She is strong and confident, and I love it! Liam with his son is so attractive, tugging all the heartstrings. Add in the witty banter and the dog and I am in love with the Dream guy next door!Shane East and Vanessa Edwin are just icing on the cake.,the narration is impeccable. East steals my heart as Liam. He is warm and alluring drawing us into Liam's life. Edwin brings all the attitude to January with her confident vulnerability. Together their story telling brought this story to life.

love everything about this book
I have to say. I LOVE this book!! Shane and Vanessa are excellent and I can say when I listen to an audiobook narrated by them I don't really notice the difference when there's a transition of narrators. They really good on bringing you in the story. What can we say about the book!?!? It is a Lauren Blakely book and it's funny and such a good flow and I haven't stopped listening besides when someone was talking to me. lol this book goes straight to my favorite books. ❤❤❤❤

HEA Without A Story
I will start by saying the narration was great and the only reason my overall rating is a 2.5. I could listen to Shane East read the phone book. I gave the performance a 4 and the story a 1 so overall that is 2.5. The 4 for performance is because there really wasn't a story to perform. I have some early Lauren Blakely books and I like them, so I knew I was in for some soft porn type sex scenes. However, in the books I like I can skip those scenes and there's still a story there to get into. Not this book, sometimes something is said during those scenes that helps build the story and I have to go back. Nope, this one is just about setting the main characters up to have sex. This book is also syrupy, hurt your teeth kind of sweet. Unfortunately I have been disappointed by the last few Lauren Blakely books I have tried to listen to. I did skip through parts of this book and am glad I did not waste a credit or cash on it. The book was part of my membership. I hope this helps you.

Peut mieux faire
C'est difficile de barrer un homme et une femme, encore plus si l'un est britannique, l'autre américaine. Donc l'écoute est difficile...
L'histoire est très simpliste et les personnages peu aboutis.
Dommage.
