Synopsis:
Romance author seeks fake husband.
I told one lie. A lie of omission, but it may cost me my writing career—which can't happen. I need the money from book sales to save my grandma, the woman who raised me, or she'll be kicked out of senior living.
That's why I accept Finn's offer—even when I know I shouldn't.
Best friend wants to pretend.
Finn O'Brien is smart, kind, too gorgeous for his own good. He's a nice guy, a gentleman, and he's always had my back. When Finn finds out I'm in trouble, he steps in to save the day.
I've been secretly in love with my best friend for years—but he's also my roommate's little brother, four years younger than me, and so off-limits.
I won't risk losing him.
But as Finn and I attend author events, we end up sharing a bed. Will we stay just friends? Or will I finally tell Finn the truth?
He was always my endgame.
This new adult sports romance features two best friends, one marriage of convenience, fake romance, and a sexy set of brothers guaranteed to make you swoon.
Review:
The Nicest Thing was a fake marriage of convenience that was so much fun. With sports and friends to lovers mixed together, this story was beyond easy to devour. So if you’re needing a romance that is beyond adorable, with a little steam, and two characters that love the book world as much as us, then this is your book!
“Gorgeous, Curvy Romance Author Seeks Fake Husband.”
Rose wanted a husband to do book reels with, and after lying in an interview that she was married she found herself stuck. When her bestie Finn volunteered to be her fake husband, Rose seemed floored. Finn and Rose had only ever been friends, and he was four years younger. While they were both clueless that the other one wanted them, it was entertaining watching them both find their way to their happily ever after!
I wanted to be used.
By her.
In any way, every way.
Finn was a cinnamon roll who had no problem laying it all out there. He had his eyes on the prize, and knew that Rose was his forever. I loved how supportive he was of her, and that he was one of her biggest fans! But I have to say that this book shocked me. In the previous books, Rose came across as confident and I loved her older vibe. But in this story we got to see all of her insecurities and the struggles she faced within her own head. I just wanted to hug her!
Finn never seemed to notice, but pieces of him were in all my books. Some of my heroes’ best lines were things Finn had said to me.
Once they both agreed to their fake marriage, I was clapping my hands with joy! Finn charmed his way into my heart, and I loved how their moments together had so much tension. It left me begging for them to truly cross that line to more. So with only one bed, steamy moments, sleepy confessions, and slow dances, I fell in love right along with Finn and Rose!
He was good at everything. Casual touches that set my skin on fire? Check. Flirtatious glances that made me feel like the sexiest woman in the room even though I knew I wasn’t? Check. Kind words that embedded themselves deeply into my heart? Check.
Finn and Rose were so effortless to love! Their journey had me laughing but I loved how it had touching emotional moments too. When you mix that with jealousy, friendship, book club time, and more, I adored their story! And while this was the final book about the O’Brien brothers, I can’t wait for us to read Emmy and Seaver’s story down the road. I hope she makes him work for it and grovel like no other lol!!!!
“Love is worth the risk.”
