Publisher's Summary

"Filled with fabulously British banter, wit, and heart, this delightful book is one of my must-read rom coms of the year." (Evie Dunmore, USA Today best-selling author of Portrait of a Scotsman)

“Virginia Heath’s fun characters and situations will have you laughing out loud! Don’t miss this wonderful read!” (Sabrina Jeffries, New York Times best-selling author)

The first in a new historical rom-com series, a handsome earl hires a fake fiancée to keep his matchmaking mother at bay, but hilarity ensues when love threatens to complicate everything.

The last thing Hugh Standish, Earl of Fareham, ever wants is a wife. Unfortunately for him, his mother is determined to find him one, even from across the other side of the ocean. So Hugh invents a fake fiancée to keep his mother’s matchmaking ways at bay. But when Hugh learns his interfering mother is on a ship bound for England, he realizes his complicated, convoluted but convenient ruse is about to implode. Until he collides with a beautiful woman, who might just be the miracle he needs.

Minerva Merriwell has had to struggle to support herself and her two younger sisters ever since their feckless father abandoned them. Work as a woodcut engraver is few and far between, and the Merriwell sisters are nearly penniless. So when Hugh asks Minerva to pose as his fiancée while his mother is visiting, she knows that while the scheme sounds ludicrous, the offer is too good to pass up.

Once Minerva and her sisters arrive at Hugh's estate, of course nothing goes according to his meticulous plan. As hilarity and miscommunication ensue while everyone tries to keep their tangled stories straight, Hugh and Minerva’s fake engagement starts to turn into a real romance. But can they trust each other when their relationship started with a lie? The first book in the Merriwell Sisters series, Never Fall for Your Fiancée is a hilarious, sparkling historical romantic comedy from Virginia Heath.

Funny funny listen

I'm normally not one for romance novels, but I throughly enjoyed listening to this book. it was hilarious. The only issue I had was the two narrators. Although they were both good, I just didn't get the need for both. I really enjoyed the males narrator and thought he would have been enough. LOVED THE STORY

Completely Average

It's fine, but it's nothing special or unique

Pros
- good performers, mainly Shane East
- British period novel
- some minor laughs

Cons
- typical fake dating tropes
- over-reliance on simple miscommunication to fuel the conflict
- annoying characters that add little to the plot
