Megan Vandemeer meant to tell her parents about her broken engagement, but a month and a half later she finds herself boarding a plane home to her wedding. Having stretched avoidance to its limits, it's time to come clean--a terrifying prospect since her mother is sure to blame her rather than her cheating, emotionally frigid ex. A couple of drinks and two Dramamine later, Megan finds herself spilling her sob story to the tall, dark, and handsome stranger in the seat next to her. With only one week left to save his business, Josh McMillan boards a plane to Kansas City in a last-ditch effort, leaving the details to chance. An unexpected answer is delivered in the form of the beautiful brunette beside him. Though she's completely loopy, her honesty, openness, and humor charm him. So when she passes out before landing, he helps her off the plane--a good deed that leads to a colossal misunderstanding. Her parents assume he's her fiancé. In a twist of fate, the mix-up might help Josh save his business, so he plays along, figuring he can help Megan too. All he has to do is stage a public break up convincing enough to appease her mother. Josh is only supposed to be a substitute groom, but the more time he and Megan spend together, the more their pretend engagement starts to feel realâ?¦and the less they want to break it off. Can a relationship that began as a farce turn into happily ever a… (meer)

Like a Hallmark story with excessive sex

The story could have been told with half the words. The story line was predictable. I won't be reading any others in this series. ( )

This is a brilliant romantic comedy - not continuously funny but a mix of romance drama and romance comedy - that follows a fun storyline. At times it felt too wacky but overall I was in awe of the author's finesse with humorous touches. Sure, parts annoyed me but for a few magic moments where I burst out laughing it gets this high score from me.

Megan and Josh anchor the story, as they engage in the subterfuge that they will wed. Often I'm happy to have a romance dominated by the leads, but without the characters that surround them - Megan's parents and grandmother, Megan's two best friends, the brothers and so on - it's hard to believe it would have sparkled as brightly as it does.

This was awful. Don't read it. Honestly i like fluffy romance books and I can deal with some tropes and coincidences and stuff but this was bad. Literally every character had something annoying about them that I hated. I'm not just talking about flaws but super annoying traits that the author took to the extreme. The plot was way too drawn out. The book could have been like 100 pages shorter. The main character's family is terrible and no, the reveal at the end doesn't change that at all. I really didn't even want to finish this book but unfortunately I did. ( )

I could not put this book down. The story line intrigued me, and I needed to know how all the subterfuge would turn out. It's well-written and had me smiling from start to finish.

I will be looking for more of this author's books. ( )

Fun romance

I loved this book. There was laughter, emotions and sweetness. My favorite character?-Gram! She was definitely the comedy relief. Megan and Josh are great too. ( )
