About this listen
One little lie can spin so wildly out of control...and yet turn out so well.
Scarlet’s grandmother wants her to bring her boyfriend home for what may be her grandmother’s last Christmas. Which wouldn’t be a problem if Scarlet actually had a boyfriend. Scarlet’s sister came up with a bit of fiction to make Grandma happy in that regard.
"We all have boyfriends, Grams. Really, we're not going to waste our lives and die alone in a trailer full of cats".
Scarlet would totally skip the fake boyfriend performance, but her cousin Jane is bringing her boyfriend to Grandma's too—and he’s Scarlet’s ex.
Yeah. Her rich, arrogant, all too sure of his own charms, ex-boyfriend. That guy. There’s no way she’s showing up solo to face him. Scarlet is stuck, last-minute, with Liam, a man she’s never met and knows nothing about.
Maybe it’s Liam’s extreme hotness that muddles Scarlet’s mind, but she has a hard time keeping certain facts straight—like his profession, and the fact that he’s not really her boyfriend…so she’s not supposed to kiss him.
She needs to stay on her toes, because not keeping her story straight will land her and Liam in all sorts of trouble.
If you love a laugh-out-loud romantic comedy with all the warm fuzzy feelings of Christmas trees, gingerbread, and hot guys, snatch up this story today!

Story
A little white lie never hurt anyone. When Clarissa takes a much needed nannying job under slightly false pretenses, she doesn't think it will be such a big deal. She may have told her movie-star boss that she was married, but that shouldn't matter—even though it was a specific job qualification. After all, the man is just worried about love-struck groupies applying for the position, and Clarissa doesn't want anything to do with men for a long, long time. Men have been nothing but trouble. But the love-struck groupies have a point.

Story
Back in college, Marco Dawson never thought of Belle as anything more than a friend. If she had crossed his mind on his wedding day, it was probably only to wonder why she hadn't shown up to be a bridesmaid. After all, his new wife was her old roommate. Seven years have passed since then, and Belle just found out that Marco is divorced and vacationing with his family in an elegant Cancun resort. She's not about to let the right man get away twice. She heads to the resort where she plans to casually bump into Marco and ignite some romantic flames.

Sasha has had it. She cannot bring herself to respond to another inane, “urgent” email or participate in the corporate employee joyfulness program. She hasn’t seen her friends in months. Sex? Seems like a lot of effort. Even cooking dinner takes far too much planning. Sasha has hit a wall. Armed with good intentions to drink kale smoothies, try yoga, and find peace, she heads to the seaside resort she loved as a child. But it’s the off season, the hotel is in a dilapidated shambles, and she has to share the beach with the only other occupant: a grumpy guy named Finn.

When my best friend found out I’d be alone over Christmas, she hooked me up with a week's stay in her family’s cabin in Idaho. I was on a publishing deadline for my latest book and was really looking forward to a cozy week by the fire, cuddled up in flannel pajamas with my laptop and hot chocolate. Alone. So imagine my surprise when I arrived at the cabin during a blizzard and found it already occupied by an all too familiar face and a fine pack of chiseled abs.

Story
With a name like Isabelle Valentine, one would think I was destined to find true love and believe in the ridiculous notion of soul mates. Don’t get me wrong: I’m all about love. I even own an inn with my sister where each room is named after our favorite romantic couples. But soul mates? It seems highly implausible there is that one person, your person, meant only for you. My sister, of course, would tell me I’m dead wrong and that the very inn we own calls to such lovers. So, what if she did find her own unlikely happily ever after here with one of the most famous men alive?

Nothing About it Worked For Me ..
Damn, that took way longer than I expected ..
The story is about Scarlett, Hazel's sister from the first book, she is looking for a fake boyfriend to convince her grandmother that she is living happily, luckily Liam ( Hazel's friend's brother .. ? ) volunteers to this task .. and the moment they saw each other they couldn't stop the attraction, but then things got complicated when they have to act engaged and pretend to want to marry..
contrary to most reviews, I quite liked the idea of a big lie that will blow up in their face one way or another, what I didn't like was Liam .. he barely had any personality and their chemistry felt forced as hell, I'm so sad that I didn't like this book since Jannette is one of my favorite authors after I read "My Fair Godmother " .. oh well ..

Just meh
I really wanted to love this book as it came highly recommended. But it fell a bit flat for me. Too implausible. Male & female narration would have made it better. Appreciated the witty and humerus banter.
