Book Blurb
Logan Ward doesn’t want any more women in his life.
Being a football player and legal guardian to his four younger sisters means his playbook is full. However, one of them just landed in the hospital, which gives his brother the shot he needs to challenge Logan for custody.
Legal counsel says there’s only one thing Logan can do—find himself a wife.
Paige McKinney doesn’t always think things through.
Like walking away from her modeling career without a thought of what might come next. She really doesn’t think it through when she proclaims herself Logan’s fiancé at the hospital, simply because the sexy—albeit grumpy—football player forgot his cell phone at a party and security won’t let her pass. It’s not her fault it was overheard by the worst possible person.
A bargain is struck, and a fake marriage is the perfect solution. But the simple solution creates a whole new problem: they’re not as different as they seem. The reluctant groom has fire inside him, and his impetuous bride is about to light the match.

My Thoughts <3
Y’all, this was a straight up 5 star read for me! I absolutely love ‘fake’ dating/fiance/marriage books, and this one had such an interesting twist to it!
Paige is a bit of a free thinker, when she gets the itch to do something different, she does. But she is also loyal, smart, and pretty freaking great- seriously, I have a girl crush on her! She was a model and used to all the spotlight but since she decided to quit she has been stuck in a rut until something falls in her lap that she needs to do.
Logan is basically the most perfect man ever. Yes, he has his cons, but not many and they can definitely be spun in a positive light as well. He is a football player that tries to stay out of the spotlight and remain hidden to keep his guardianship of his sisters out of the spotlight. *Swoon*. Until a situation occurs that jeopardizes his guardianship and he would do ANYTHING to help keep his sisters, so bringing in a fiery spitfire as his wife is either an amazing idea or freaking stupid.
This story is absolutely beautiful with some freaking major angsty steamy scenes, some hilarious moments, and a lovely plot where everything is laid out perfectly and organically. I read the first books in this serious and I freaking love this author. I HIGHLY recommend you checking out this book and you can believe that I will be checking out the next books by this author!
PS: I received this book as an arc but am voluntarily and honestly reviewing it!
About the Author
Well, let’s see … I’m a wife and a mother. If the things that I write bring a smile to someone’s face, then I’ve done my job. I am obsessed with Outlander (both the books and the show). I’m almost exclusively a romance reader, which means some people will never consider me a literary snob. If I could meet one historical figure, it would be Jane Austen. I received my Bachelors in Public Relations and worked in health care marketing before I had my babies. I hate Twitter. I do it, but I hate it. Also, if you want to get on my good side, bring me wine and I’ll love you forever.
