New grad Anna Richardson works hard—so hard that she’s given up having a romantic life. Anna has even convinced her friends that she’s dating an amazing guy—who they’ve simply never met. But now Anna has a wedding to attend and needs to produce the hottie she’s been lying about for the past six months. Enter Jake Flynn, her infuriating, motorcycle-riding, jaw-droppingly gorgeous neighbor, who’s more than willing to fake it for a weekend. In fact, Jake won’t be satisfied until things get real.

Though Jake is only playing the role of adoring boyfriend, he’s starting to feel the heat, and judging by Anna’s sweet blush, so is she. Letting chemistry this intense go to waste would be a real shame. Soon, though, the thin line between fantasy and reality fades. Jake may not be what every buttoned-up fast-tracker wants, but he’s sure as hell what Anna needs. And if she takes a ride with him, their adventure never has to end.

MY REVIEW:

     I really enjoyed this story in fact it is the second in the series for me that I have read.  This story revolves around Anna Richardson, a professional in corporate world.  She put herself through college and has worked her way up the corporate ladder.  She rents a room at the brownstone of Erin Connelly, a frustrated artist that works at an art gallery.  Erin also rents out another room to Dani Michaels who is a bartender and a very hip and cool chick.

     Anna has always been very insecure due to her background.  She has secrets that she holds close to her chest like an iron lung.  There is only one soul that knows everything and all their old college friend will be there.  Anna feels accomplished enough it’s her personal life that is causing the problem.

     You see Todd her ex has moved back to town after he was the one who broke up with her, he now wants to get back together.  She has been avoiding him which is hard to do since they are back working together.  Second problem, she had been telling Kristen her old roommate from college and future bride, all about Dave her imaginary boyfriend.  Kristen knows she’s lying but Anna won’t admit defeat.  Anna is hoping she can recruit someone either tonight or tomorrow night to be her boyfriend for the weekend.  Then they can learn their part of Dave in 5 days for the weekend getaway.

     In walks her, “walking orgasm” for the last six months, Jake Flynn, her new neighbor.  He is a rough, Alpha Male, buff, and a bike.  Anna had been scoping him out for the last six months.  Never getting up the nerve to talk to him.  Everything about him scared him but she couldn’t figure out why he always had an easy smile and a smooth style about him.

     Jake also had been checking her out with her bouncy hair, to proper suits, and flirty shoes.  She reminded him of a forties pinup model which he took liberties with that in his fantasies one too many times.  He too was having some very day and night orgasmic dreams about Anna too.  He could tell she didn’t think she was attractive but she was a knock out.  Yes, she is what “they” would call full figured but Jake called her all woman.  Stacked on top, thin waist, and long thicker legs.  Perfect for him.  Instant chemistry between them.

     Neither was looking for a committed relationship just a weekend of fun.  So, not thinking he would really want to do it she tried to shake him off but he insisted.  The trip turns out to be quite the adventure of a lifetime.  I just wish there would have been a epilogue at the end, also it started a to ramble a little about ¼ of the way in and then again toward the end for me.  I for that reason gave this book 4 stars.  Provided by Net Galley.
