Story
It’s an ordinary workday when intelligence analyst Lexie Martin learns about a horrific chemical weapon attack abroad. Just an ordinary day...until a stranger breaks into her house and warns her to forget what she saw and heard, setting off a chain of events Lexie thought only happened in movies. Falsely accused of stealing intelligence and unsure of who to trust, Lexie quickly realizes the significance of the intel and that she must do everything she can to keep it safe. And as she runs—maybe for her life—Lexie knows she needs something, or someone, to help her.

Hannah Martin has an unusual job: she's a professional cuddler. While she has a big heart for her clients, she hasn't found someone special to snuggle up to in her personal life. Winter Sullivan isn't looking for love. She's an aloof workaholic who's built walls of ice around herself. She would rather drive toothpicks under her fingernails than cuddle, and she certainly doesn't want to share her space with anyone. When Winter's estranged father dies, he leaves her one last surprise: she and Hannah, a perfect stranger, will inherit a building together.

Her first assignment - decorating the Christmas tree in the lobby - results in a trip to the ER after Dee, the company's second-in-command, gets hit by the star-shaped tree topper.

Publisher's Summary
Fake girlfriends. Real chemistry.
Parker Black has put her bad girl days behind her. Once the rebellious, womanizing middle child of the wealthiest family in Seattle, she's now the founder and CEO of a luxury lingerie label. But when an incident from her past resurfaces, everything she's built threatens to come crashing down.
For up-and-coming public relations specialist Julia Conner, her job is her life. A former foster kid, she's spent years climbing the ladder. So when Parker contacts her to help her come back from a scandal, Julia is determined to prove she can handle a big-name client like Parker Black.
But Julia isn't prepared for the way the blonde-haired billionaire makes her weak at the knees. And she definitely isn't prepared when Parker announces to the world that Julia is her girlfriend.
Swept into a fake romance with a woman who's determined to tempt her into her bed, Julia is unable to resist Parker and her intoxicating power games. But is their relationship really just pretend? And with both their reputations on the line, will Parker and Julia be willing to put their hearts on the line too?

A reviewer warned me but I regrettably didn’t listen.
I had a hard time finishing this book. I didn’t care for either of the main characters and the story was flimsy and boring. The only bright stop was Abby Craden.

story arc okay, lacked character progression
The narrator was great. where i really struggled with the story was the believability of the characters in their situations as the story progressed. Parker was womanizing and due to an accident has grown at the beginning of the story but still seems like a spoiled child when it comes to getting her way with sex. women still feel like a conquest.
Julia is a strong willed woman who has overcome neglect, abandonment and loss, she is protectice of her past, not easy to really deeply trust and has had to put a lot into overcoming economic and social hards to build a successful business.
all of that is a great starting point, but then we have a series of encounters, which is basically parker gettingher way and julia acting completely out of character by just instantly accepting being dominated and blindly accepting beingput in a situation that risks her business and professional integrity.
parker doesnt grow and learn to have deeper connections and feelings, there just suddenly there at the end. julia doesnt have any self value or integrity or strong will that she holds onto while she learns to trust parker and accept her own subservient sexuality
there is no titillation factor or seduction, just jump into sex scene 1, check. and even that is a little meh,

Trying not to spoil
But I was enjoying this book most of the way through but then when one of them got mad in the big conflict of the book, I could not understand why she cared much less made such a big deal about it. Who tf cares about that?? It was such a dumb way to create conflict that it really soured the rest of the book.

failure to communicate
use your words
don’t be a liar
stand up for yourself
cut out toxic people (even if they’re family)
abby craden is an angel
sex in hot
not much else going
i needed one of them to maybe consider the character of the ‘bearer of bad news’. bad decisions, weirdly bratty reaction when all that was necessary was a logical conversation.

Meh
The book was pretty boring. The characters are cardboard cutouts and I really did not care what happened to any of them. As another reviewer wrote: « thank God for Abby Craden ».Craden can make a phone book sound compelling and hot. If you are looking for hot sex scenes and great story this book is not it.

Story didn’t pass the vibe check
Narrator as always was wonderful. Made finishing the book relatively painless.
I really wanted to like this book. The characters had so much potential and personality but they were left shallow and unfinished. It was difficult to imagine the conversations happening even on a pornhub video and it was as second hand embarrassing to listen. The scene at the charity was rushed and so unrealistic… especially how Julia blamed Parker for it when the entire chaos was nothing.
It ended up feeling like an unhealthy relationship when you know these are characterized by 1. Intensity and volatility 2. Possessiveness 3. Manipulation. I was actually shocked at times by the words used between the two when written separately each character, specifically Parker, was so much more and more likable.
I wouldn’t recommend.
However, yes to everything about the kitties always.

Abby did great job as usual…
The story was not all that great. I did not pick up from the description that there would be domination love making, if I had I would not have read it, that is not my cup of tea, but may be others. Actually I was more turned off by the control that one of the main characters demonstrated in all situations in the story. To me, this really displayed narcissism which I don’t do well with.
