Summary

Dive into this feel-good, steamy romcom series, and meet three gorgeous heroes and the feisty women who bring them to their knees.

Included in this flirty and fun boxset is three complete full-length stand-alone novels for one great price:

  • Book one: Operation My Fake Girlfriend
  • Book two: Sexy with Attitude Too
  • Book three: You Only Love Once

Operation My Fake Girlfriend

Some people think a knicker-less walk of shame is as bad as it gets. Some people are wrong. Very. Wrong.

Grace:

That awkward moment when you figure out the hot piece-of-ass in bed beside you, aka - your drunken hook-up - is your boss’ boss, billionaire hottie Sebastian Stone.

Even more awkward? The knowledge that there is no way I can retrieve my knickers from the chandelier above his bed without waking him.

Now he wants me to be his fake girlfriend, and he has an offer I cannot refuse.

Sebastian:

I’ve fought my whole life to prove I have what it takes to run the family empire. Unfortunately, these days my Gramps cares more about family values than stock values. And he’s not handing over the company unless I find love. 

Grace Harper is the no-strings hook-up I haven’t been able to forget.

Finding out she’s my employee and a hot little rule-breaker - Who brings their geriatric cat to work? - I figure she’s perfect for Operation: My Fake Girlfriend.

Will a phony relationship unleash Grace and Sebastian’s deepest desires? Or will faking it make them come undone?

Sexy with Attitude Too

Reasons Luke Stone is off limits:  He’s a cop. I have a criminal past. His favorite pastime is pulling me over for speeding. Driving fast makes me feel free. He’s maddeningly hot. I am off men. He’s my boss’ brother. If they discover my resume is fake, I’ll get fired. He knows I’m hiding something, and he’s determined to find out what.

So when my boss orders me to cat-sit at his place while he whisks his bride away on honeymoon, the last person I expect to share the responsibility with is Luke Stone - aka the hot-as-hell heart-throb cop.

Surviving him will be impossible. He’s infuriating. He eats all my snacks, makes constant innuendos, and walks around half naked, flaunting those rock-hard abs and bulging biceps, making my mouth water. 

They say there is a fine line between love and hate. I’ll either end up killing him or sleeping with him. 

Please God, let it be the first one.

You Only Love Once

Five years ago my pride got in the way of love. Now I’m about to swallow it.

Willow:

He was my first crush, my first love, and my first time. He’s also the brother of my arch-enemy, Patti Banks.

When he enlisted in the marines, he promised he’d be back soon. He lied. Now he’s back, and he’s wondering why the gorgeous kid, who looks a lot like him, is calling me mamma. 

Ethan:

We agreed it was forever, but she never wrote me back. My sister hates her, but she hates everyone. 

When I lay my eyes on her, it’s as if nothing has changed. She’s still fiercely independent and packs a mean right hook.

But now there’s a kid involved, it’s time to put our games aside. And this time, I’m playing for keeps.

Fun and frolics

There were many laugh out loud moments and they are brilliantly written. My only problem were the male narrators accents didn’t work together. I think this made me notice when blatant americanisms were written into what was a British story. Overall I absolutely loved it and would highly recommend it… especially if you’re not as picky as me!!

adorable!

loved them all, but i particularly ADORED book 3. well written and well narrated. the narrators have more mature voices and very thick accents and i was a bit perplexed in the 1st book, but i then got used to them and i believe they did a great job, especially in book 3.

Great series accented with fun narration

I really liked all three interconnected stories in this box set. Expect funny banter and situations and a wacky cast. There are some steamy moments and while there are serious moments, I loved how the humor was always present.

Operation, My Fake Girlfriend was the funniest. A fake relationship/ boss romance, there was some really hilarious banter.
Sexy With Attitude follows the brother of the hero in the first book and the assistant of the brother. I liked this book and there was a lot of fun times in the beginning although it gets a little more serious towards the end because the author covers the heroine's past.
The final book, You Only Live Once was a second chance romance with a little secret baby thrown in and this one felt more serious to me and less humorous but that makes sense given the topics addressed, including jealousy, perceived jealousy and a really mean sister (of the hero).

The narration really shone. Sophie hunter-Scott, especially, was amazing- she has fantastic comedic timing and in fact, she really always sounded like she was having a blast with this narration. i adored listening to her playing the multiple characters. I liked Sunny Patel (first story), who had a beautifully smooth voice. Greg Michaels was also good but sometimes his narration was a little difficult to understand. Otherwise, the stories were all elevated with the narration.

Needs a complete rewrite

It’s supposed to be set in England, but the language is all wrong, talk of comforters instead of quilts or duvets and faucets instead of Taps along with many more americanisms makes it a really awkward listen. Add to that the fact that the narrators are poor, way too old for the characters and often very unclear, even for British natives, to understand. Generally a decent plot has been ruined by lack of attention to detail. DNF after first book.
