Story
Ryan Henderson is back in town for our best friends’ wedding, and I plan on showing him exactly how much I don’t care about him—or the almost kiss he dangled over me after graduation. But things have changed since then. I'm a successful bakery owner now, and I plan to rub every delicious detail of my life in his ugly face. There’s just one problem: his face is gorgeous. I have to stay strong until the wedding is over and Ryan scurries back into whatever universe he escaped from. His interest in me is nothing but a continuation of the games we played in high school...right?

Story
I have found rock bottom: moving in with my older brother because I’m too broke to afford to live on my own. It’s okay though, because we’ve always been close and I think I’m going to have fun living with him again. That is, until I meet Cooper.... Turns out, my brother has very strong opinions on the idea of me dating his best friend - he’s dead set against it. According to him, Cooper is everything I should stay away from: flirtatious, adventurous, noncommittal, and freaking hot. (I added that last part because I feel like you need the whole picture.)

Story
I spent the night with a hot, grumpy stranger in an airport hotel. No, not like that. Get your mind out of the gutter. It was just sleeping...and maybe a little cuddling. Long story short, I embarrassed the heck out of myself, but at least I never have to see him again. Except the universe is clearly out to get me, because I arrive at my new job on Monday morning, and who’s the first person I see? Hot stranger himself: Liam Donovan. AKA, my new boss. AKA, Annie, you are so freaking screwed.

Ever since his career-ending injury, Pat has bounced from job to job, idea to idea, short-lived relationship to short-lived relationship. But when his father purchases the town of Sheet Cake, Pat suddenly sees his life with clear purpose: get his brothers on board with his dad's wild idea and win back the one woman who got away. Lindy was supposed to be traveling the world, not stuck in a small town, caring for her niece. But she would do anything to keep custody of Jo, even if that looks like a marriage of convenience with the man who already broke her heart once.

Story
Conor Brady is the hottest man I have ever laid eyes on. Ever. He’s also my new roommate. In the past few days, I became jobless, homeless, and boyfriendless. So, I did what any 28-year-old woman with her life together would do: I ran. Far, far away from my life in New York and straight to my big brother’s house in Atlanta. Only, it turns out that my brother is away on a business trip. And he failed to tell me that a full-on, godlike hottie - who happens to be a premier house flipper - has taken up residence in the spare bedroom while his enormous new house is being renovated.

I’m not the only one who’s changed: when the sheriff comes to tell me I’m the prime suspect in the most ridiculous crime in town history, it’s none other than Lucas Cole, the former star of my teenage stress dreams, wearing the badge.

Talk about a detour… But here I am. Turning Gran’s beach house into a bed and breakfast; a process that would be a lot easier if I didn’t have to deal with the grumpy lawyer living next door. It doesn’t help that the night Jake and I met, I got a little tipsy, and he had to carry me back to my hotel.

An arranged marriage isn’t the worst fate for a princess like me. Especially because I’ve been in love with my intended groom since we were children. But when my prince shows up with an American girlfriend instead of an engagement ring, all arrangements are off. The clock is nearing midnight; I won’t turn into a pumpkin, but if I’m not wed by summer’s end, I’ll forfeit my kingdom. Just your typical royal dilemma. Out of sheer desperation, I make a deal with a devilish duke. Rafe de Silva is the prince’s rival and has a plan so ridiculous it just might work.

Story
For Everly Dalton, it’s a bit like trying to walk in stilettos - while drunk, blindfolded, and wearing the wrong size shoes. She hasn’t exactly been lucky in love. In fact, she just might be cursed. A guy who only dates lookalikes of his ex? Pass. An alpha-male businessman who bolts in a moment of crisis? No, thanks. A date that turns into the creepiest interview in the history of ever? Where does she find these guys? Join Everly as she dishes to her friends about the surprising, unpredictable, and sometimes crazy adventure that is modern dating.
Publisher's Summary
He was her target. She was his diversion. Falling in love was never something they wanted.
As a con woman who has spent her entire life fending for herself on the streets of London, Rose Wakefield knows how to scam a gentleman out of his money without ever getting caught. That's until she knocks on the wrong earl's door and is faced with Carver Ashburn Earl of Kensworth and not the notorious rake she thinks she is approaching.
Carver is a good man, but even a good man will not pass up an opportunity to escape his grief. What better way to avoid his feelings than to play into a con woman's ruse and offer to marry her?
Things only grow more complicated when Carver sweeps Rose off to his family estate and circumstances force them both into continuing the ruse. Carver needs to protect his family, and Rose needs to protect herself - and her heart.
With so much set against them, will Rose and Carver have a chance at love and freedom? Or is the possibility of more heartache not worth the risk?

Charming and captivating
So nice to hear something a little different, I’ve heard rags to riches before but a con artist was new for me. I really enjoyed the banter, the emotional struggle, and the supporting characters were fleshed out well too. Even got a little bit teary near the end. I will be listening to this one again I’m sure!

Beautiful
What an awesome love story. Took me back in time, away from life as it is and it showed me how things could be done, even in today’s world. Romance needs a big push as our world has become very lustful.
It would be nice to see love and romance Take a step up beautifully written.

Steady and sweet
The book is fun and amusing, but the narration is laboured. Rachael Beresford's style is just a touch slow, and I think it is the main contributing factor to the 10 hours of listening time rather than actual content. Once I pushed myself through the first chapter, I changed the speed to 1.1 and found it a much easier listen.
Overall, the story is sweet and clean.
A common con woman inserts herself in high society to fleece rich gentlemen to give to the poor orphans (give me strength 🙄). She tries to do "a job" on a disreputable Lord but ends up attempting to embezle the wrong man.
He basically abducts her, in the most honourable way of course, they fall in love in the space of about 3 days and you can connect the dots from there.
I enjoyed the banter, and the extended Dalton family was a nice touch.

Slow to the extreme
If you like a very very slow-burn romance, this book may be for you. While the plot had extreme promise and gripped you from the beginning, so much of this book could have been cut out. It felt like the author was given an essay assignment by a teacher that had a strict word count. She also constantly asked internal monologue questions while doing the different povs, to the point where it became slightly annoying.
I did enjoy both characters, but it is hard to root for a romance when the male lead spends 30 odd chapters mooning over his dead childhood sweetheart.
I have given this book a review of 3, but only because I do think the author has a lot of promise in her writing but she really needs to learn to trim the fat.
The narrator spoke so slowly it was a little jarring so I listened on increased speed so she sounded like a normal person.

Regency Romance
Struggled to finish it. Slow, kept waiting for it to get better. Characters were shallow, messed up, constantly changing their minds. Relationship based on attraction - 'in love' in 3 days and knew nothing about each other. Wouldn't listen to it again.
