Summary

From USA Today best-selling author Claudia Burgoa comes this page-turner fake-relationship-office romance.

What happens when the guy who’s afraid of love finds himself in it?

Know what they say about never mixing business with pleasure? Yeah, no.

The one about never sleeping with your boss?

I ignored it too.

I blame Aslan Spearman, the boss.

He’s a wealthy playboy who doesn’t believe in happily ever after.

He’s demanding, a workaholic, and cynical.

He’d rather have a root canal than be in a romantic relationship.

Do you want to know a secret? I think he’s afraid of love.

So when he has to go to the Spearman family reunion in Hawaii with his girlfriend, he’s in big trouble.

That’s what happens when you lie to your family about your relationship status.

It wasn’t important—until now.

What does he do?

He comes to me, his VP of Operations and right hand for assistance.

After all, I’m a problem solver.

Except my personal life is complete chaos.

So we make a deal. I’ll be his girlfriend if he helps me solve my problems.

It’s a win-win situation, right?

I mean, how hard can it be?

It’s not like I plan to fall in love.

Fabulous Story & Narration🎧 Charming & Heartfelt!

Claudia Burgoa pens another fabulously delightful romance novel, a fake relationship office romance that morphs into something much more. The story captivated my attention from start to end, it is the type of book once you pick up you do not want to put down because you need to know what happens next. The characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with, they were easy to care about too. Aslan Spearman, a billionaire business executive, who has no problem facing the challenges to run a business but he can not face his mother and come clean with her, to keep her off of his back about dating he told her he had a girlfriend and now she wants him to bring said girlfriend to the Spearman Family reunion. He plans on getting out of going, but another idea is to bring someone who will pose as his girlfriend. Keaton Nealy is the VP of Operations at Spearman and is Aslan’s right-hand person and is great at everything she does, often working late hours, just as Aslan does. While her work life is great, her home life is quite the opposite, she has a lot on her plate and is struggling to stay afloat. Unfortunately, it all comes tumbling down and when Aslan finds out, he is determined to help her out. A proud Keaton does not like to take handouts or to have to owe anyone anything, but with reluctance she accepts his help and then it comes to him, the perfect solution to his reunion dilemma, to have Keaton come as his fake girlfriend. Keaton is hesitant because she does not want to ruin their work relationship or jeopardize her job, but Aslan counteracts all her fears. I loved how everything played out in this book, the story is beautifully plotted with plenty of drama, heartfelt emotions, some amazing dialogue and witty banter and a smoking hot romance. Also loved the family dynamics and the camaraderie with his siblings, especially amongst triplets and his Mom who was hilarious too. Claudia Burgoa, thank you for another wonderful story and emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 And for the amazing narration, Jason Clarke and MacKenzie Cartwright deliver an outstanding performance, bringing the characters and their story to life. They had a complete understanding of the characters they portrayed, giving each a voice that is a perfect fit to that character’s persona and were believable in every role they played. Jason Clarke nailed it as Aslan, grasping the complexity of his character completely. MacKenzie Cartwright’s Keaton was spot on, grasping her strength and determination and her insecurities when she showed them both were great at performing the roles of the secondary characters as well. You could hear how much heart these two put into their work as they captured all the character’s emotions and projected them into their performance. These entertaining storytellers are versatile voice artists and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another fabulous listen!

Hawaii with Aslan and Keaton!

What a start to the Paradise Bay Billionaire Brothers series! I am hooked on these Spearman triplets already. This one features Aslan, who is extremely serious. Taking care of his family has been his objective since his father passed away, and he is only interested in working. But this does not stop his interfering mother from trying to get those extra grandchildren. Now a family reunion in Hawaii that has the entire Spearman family is coming up and there is not way of getting out of it. Unfortunately for Aslan, a lie he has perpetuated for a year is going to come to a head unless he finds the fake girlfriend he has pretended to have does not go with him. Who better to take than Keaton, his VP of Operations. She too is a workaholic, takes the best care of her family that she can and has not social life. But will she agree? And can they pull it off? What happens next? You have to listen! Aslan is quite the character. I love his relationship with his family, especially his brothers. When he realized his true feelings though was the best part for me. Stubborn man doesn't realize what is right in front of him. Keaton is hesitant with her feelings, does not want to get hurt and knows where her life is going. Or does she? Add in her sister with an attitude, and a family that is impossible not to love, and we have the start of an amazing series! Can't wait for more!

Making it all come alive is Jason Clarke and Mackenzie Cartwright. What a team this is! Clarke is perfect in this role, making Aslan not only realistic, but a man we all know. Keaton is a woman with many layers that need to be peeled back and Cartwright does just that. Each inflection lets us a little deeper into her. These two know how to make us feel and fall into the story with them. Excellent performance.
