Carmichael Family #3
Kindle KU e-book
Author: Adriana Locke
Jess Carmichael has always seen Pippa Plum as his “dream girl”. So much so that, if he can’t have her, no one else will do. That realization happened 15 years ago, so he’s had his share of girlfriends, but no one touched his heart. So when he finds out that Pippa needs a “fake ex-husband” to save her job, he comes to the rescue. They’ll have to go on a couples retreat of sort to see if they can “reignite” the flame in their “marriage”. She doesn’t want to get serious with anyone, let alone Jess… But he proposes a trade: he’ll go on this retreat if she lets him try to win her over. And Jess can be very persuasive…
This one was so much fun! If you love a dirty-talking but oh-so-sweet hero, one who’s been pining for his girl foreeeeeeeever, Jess is the man! Plus, you get a heroine who’s strong (though her family seems determined to break her spirit), loving and fun in Pippa.
Also, the shenanigans are back, the crazy animal-themed texts (what gives?!), the never-ending “Banks situation” (hilarious) and the feeling of being totally accepted into a family.
Their story is fun, steamy and sweet and their happily ever after is definitely not a fluke.
Possible triggers: toxic relationship with parents
