About this listen

A Small Town, Fake Dating, Enemies to Lovers, Standalone Romance from USA Today and Amazon #1 Bestselling Author, Laura Pavlov.

Lulu Sonnet is the bane of my existence.
She’s caused me more physical pain than any man should ever endure.
From an accidental throat punch to a near death by shovel—
Don’t even get me started on that vicious pool ball accident where she almost robbed me of my family jewels.
She’s a hot little heathen, and what’s worse?
She’s staying in my brother’s rental house while I’m temporarily living in the guest house.
And now she needs a favor.
A fake boyfriend.
I’ll dote on her for a few weeks, she’ll return the favor so my boss’s daughter will stop nagging me, and then we’ll part ways.
It seems simple enough.
Until we end up in the same shower.
And then the same bed.
The lines are blurring.
She’s beautiful and fierce and sexy all at the same time.
But Lulu isn’t staying in Rosewood River forever.
The place I call home is just a pitstop for her.
But suddenly everything I thought I wanted is no longer important to me.
My fake girlfriend has turned my world upside down.
And now nothing feels right without her.

**This is book 2 in the Rosewood River Series. Each one can be enjoyed as a complete standalone. A HEA is guaranteed!**

Loved the performance by Sean and Vanessa. Bringing Rafe and Lulu to life

Both had great vocal performances. From Grandpa, parents, French accents and Sean’s child voice for ‘Beefcake’ was excellent.

Lulu is staying at her best friends boyfriends house, Rafe is staying at his brothers guest house whilst his house is being renovated

Their first meeting was not what either of them expected.

Both need each other’s help, which is when the fake relationship comes in.

Cutler ‘ Beefcake’ has his words of wisdom. The cutest 7 year old.

Rafe has been elevated to number one. I loved Rafe and Lulu’s banter.

This story follows Lulu and Rafe. Lulu moves to a small town for three months to escape the spotlight—and her famous ex-boyfriend. Arriving earlier than planned, she has an unexpected first encounter with Rafe, a local bachelor. The two instantly clash, getting under each other’s skin at every turn. But with upcoming events forcing them to work together, will they be able to resist the growing tension between them?

This was such a fun read—my first by Laura, but definitely not my last. I highly recommend the audiobook; it was a joy to listen to, and the narrators were fantastic.

I absolutely loved the FMC, Lulu—what a fun, flirty, and feisty character. She had me laughing from the start. I also loved how Rafe gave her a run for her money, pushing back and matching her energy in a grumpy kind of way. Their chemistry was brilliant and loved them together.

I do have a couple of things I want to mention. The drag out of the arrangement, being friends with benifits and not fall in love with each other —I just wanted to scream at them to hurry up and confess their feelings! When it finally happened in the last 10%, it was satisfying but a little overdue. Also, while I enjoyed the spice, I found myself wanting more or for the scenes to last longer. This is the first time I’ve felt that way about a book, which surprised me!

Overall, a fantastic, feel-good romance that I thoroughly enjoyed.

Round of applause for this new release from the queen of romance Laura Pavlov. This new book is absolutely everything. I had to listen twice it was so nice! I was laughing out loud so much at these two characters interactions and the family texts flying off it was hilarious. The pace of the story moved really well keeping all my attention and me wanting more. These characters are really well rounded. They’re grounded, funny, know their worth, ambitious and focused. Highly recommend listening to this audio it’s a top notch performance lyric audiobooks.
