Summary

Logan Ward doesn't want any more women in his life.

Being a football player and legal guardian to his four younger sisters means his playbook is full. However, one of them just landed in the hospital, which gives his brother the shot he needs to challenge Logan for custody. Legal counsel says there's only one thing Logan can do - find himself a wife.

Paige McKinney doesn't always think things through.

Like walking away from her modeling career without a thought of what might come next. She really doesn't think it through when she proclaims herself Logan's fiance at the hospital, simply because the sexy - albeit grumpy - football player forgot his cell phone at a party and security won't let her pass. It's not her fault it was overheard by the worst possible person.

A bargain is struck, and a fake marriage is the perfect solution. But the simple solution creates a whole new problem: They're not as different as they seem. The reluctant groom has fire inside him, and his impetuous bride is about to light the match.

Contains mature themes.

My gosh. .

The ending of this was so cheesy I can’t even. Decent story to pass the time. Good for a free title

Enjoyable Easy Listening

The third and last in this series. Good overall story with interconnecting characters from the previous two books. A stand-alone but works best if you read the series in order. A bit far fetched, but hey it’s a story!! Great narrators too.

Enjoyable

Enjoyed this book very easy listening to listened to in one day. Lots of lol at Paige, who was detremed to get her man. Isabelle Ruther is a new narror to me really loved her style and voice as Paige. Stephen did a great job as Logan both did a fantastic job together. Karla Sorersen is a new author to me always enjoy finding new authors.

Was a great story

But got too corny at the end. Also why are teens represented as morons. Bit unrealistic on that front.

Had potential but too sugary for me.

Great narration by both actors.
Storyline was too Hollywood for me not realistic.
Pleasant fantasy but not memorable.

Alright

I loved the narrators and how the characters came to life. The story was ok, but I would have expected a bit more character building for Paige. She passed from one extreme to the other in less than 24h...

Don't think I would recommend it to anyone to read it.

I loved the story….

From Ch1 to Ch28, I was completely hooked. This book is worth listening to again. Both narrators brought the story to life.

Paige character is very immature!

Struggled to finish this. i tried on two separate occasions, but found the Paige character too immature. She was great with the children but felt that as an adult romantic interest she was not a match to the male lead.
