Description

Fake date. Real trouble. Fall for a new trope-tactic, fake dating rom-com read from USA Today bestselling author, Lila Monroe! 

Sebastian Wainwright is handsome, British, and charming… and the last man you can rely on. Bartending at Mavericks, I’ve seen his love-em-and-leave-em routine up close, and I know better than to become another notch on his king-sized bedpost. But when a little white lie catches up with me, it turns out that Seb is exactly the man I need for the job…

Posing my fake boyfriend for the week.

See, I invented The Perfect Man (TM) to keep my interfering family off my case, but now I’m back home for my high-school reunion, my sister is (surprise!) engaged to my ex, and I’m first in line to win Biggest Disappointment. I need Mr. Perfect to roll up and save me from humiliation, and since he doesn’t exist, I’ll just have to settle for New York’s biggest playboy instead.

A cocktail of disaster? That’s what I figure, but as we’re swept up in small-town shenanigans, family drama, and tipsy strip karaoke (don’t ask), I find there’s more to Seb than just charm and come-to-bed-eyes. A whole lot more. But when the week is up, will our fake date arrangement become something real? Or is our flirty fling destined to remain fiction?

Find out in the new hot and hilarious rom-com from USA Today bestselling author, Lila Monroe!

    Great character development. Sebastian has so much depth to his character. He and Roxy are the prefect match. They bring out the best of each other. Delightful story and one of my favorites in the series. It's worth the read.....April H, FL

    The story is good but there are typos in the last several books I’ve read of the authors. Also, all of the guys at Mavericks have these stories that progress the same, and the big reveal always seems to happen at the same time in similar settings. The relationships and intimate scenes progress in almost the exact same way every time, as well.

    Once I started this book I didn’t want to put it down! I loved the funny situations, related to the horrors of high school reunions, and appreciated the loving gestures throughout the book. One more pass by an editor would have made this a five star rating for me but it doesn’t keep me from highly recommending this book!

    I love Lila Monroe’s books and this series is no exception. Sebastian Wainwright and his friends own two of the most popular bars in all of Manhattan. Sebastian is in charge of procuring the liquor for the bar, while his friends have other duties. Roxy works at the bar as a bartender. She has seen Seb’s playboy ways up close, and has friend zoned him. When she goes to her hometown in Connecticut for her parents anniversary and her 10 year High School reunion, she is not looking forward to it. Roxy feels like a disappointment, she left town to go to law school, and dropped out. Her mother keeps harping on her about her life choices, so she made up a fake boyfriend. When she finds out that her stepsister is dating her high school ex, she asks Sebastian to be her fake boyfriend “Stefano.” This is a thoroughly enjoyable read, with very likable protagonists. I received an arc of this book from the author for my honest review.

    I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review. This was a slow burn romance, but it was also a lot of fun. It stars Roxy who is the bartender at Maverick's and Sebastien, the playboy. They both enter into a fake romance with hijinks and lots of laughs. Roxy goes back home to visit her family when she finds out her younger sister is dating her ex high school boyfriend and they are so adorable together. Desperate to get her fake and pretend boyfriend Stephano to save her she begs Sebastien to join her and pretend to be the nonexistent Stephano. Meanwhile Seb wants to more than a playboy and wants to follow his dream of opening a vineyard but the sellers do not like that he is single and so he invents his fiancée, Roxy. Desperate Roxy and Seb enter into a hilarious fake romance to benefit them both. This was a very light read and with lots of fun scenes among Roxy's family. Seb is a pretty light character and a huge flirt. He has always lusted over Roxy but she instead friend zoned him. Can he get out of the friendzone and what happens when he does? You will have to read this story to find out.
