About this listen

A spicy, sassy, and swoony fake dating romantic comedy from Amazon Charts bestselling author Jennifer Millikin.

A week on an island sounds like the stuff of beach dreams, but for Paisley Royce, it's a nightmare. Her little sister is marrying her ex-college sweetheart, and Paisley is serving as maid of honor. To add insult to injury, nobody will let Paisley forget she's single.

Bachelorette weekend changes everything when she runs into her old college frenemy, Klein Madigan.

Klein is still intelligent and funny, and somehow time has only made him more attractive.

Paisley is Klein's one that got away, not that he'd ever admit it to her. A colossal misstep (and one terrible kiss) in college sealed their fate.

Or so they thought.

Klein's an aspiring author allergic to social media. Paisley owns a digital marketing agency.

A brilliant plan is hatched: A trip across the country for a week of faking out her family in exchange for her firm marketing his work.

One hastily scrawled and signed contract on a bar napkin later, Paisley and Klein embark on a journey of tension, only one bed, and fake dating shenanigans.

Paisleys goal is to survive the week.

Klein's plan is to enjoy the sun, sand, and wedding cake.

But then there's a scorching kiss to make up for that bad one in college.

And another kiss in a lighthouse during a thunderstorm. A gentle palm on Paisleys lower back, and a reassuring hand squeeze under the table.

Everyone is convinced Klein and Paisley are the real deal, but as the week wears on, they begin to wonder if the only people they're kidding are themselves.

The story was ok- entertaining and easy to read- but wasn't outstanding overall. The narrators lifted this story dramatically.

Excuse me, but why is no one talking about this book?

Paisley’s sister is marrying her ex-boyfriend, so naturally, she panics and decides she needs a fake date to survive the wedding week and all the inevitable pity. Enter Klein—the same Klein who broke her heart in college eight years ago.

He agrees to play the role of devoted fake boyfriend, and in return, Paisley’s digital marketing firm will help boost his nonexistent online presence so publishers will finally take him seriously and his book can get noticed.

Klein, the man that you are. He remembers everything about Paisley, from her birthday to how she eats her favourite candy. The way he quietly looks after her, supports her, and makes it so clear how much she still means to him is next-level swoon. Jennifer truly put her whole heart into crafting Klein as a book boyfriend, and it shows on every page.

Paisley’s journey is just as satisfying. She goes through some serious character growth, finally finding her voice and standing up to her family. There’s plenty of family drama along the way, but also real breakthroughs, and you know I ate up every single crumb.

Add in a duet-narrated audiobook and no breakup, and honestly, what are you waiting for? You need to read Here for the Cake immediately. I had such a great time with this one.
