Review
Jack Sutton, who is the CEO of Sutton Capital, finds himself in a strange situation after his mother dies. He either gets married to gain her shares in the company that his father built up from the ground, or his aunt takes over and he gets removed from his position. So of course Jack does what any normal person would do right? He tells his aunt that he is engaged. It’s just a tiny lie after all, nothing bad could happen, at least until Aunt Mabry wants to meet the girl who has won Jack’s heart. Lucky for Jack his temp secretary is nosy and spills to her best friend Kelly about the situation that Jack has gotten himself in. Kelly comes up with a plan to become Jack’s fake fiancé and then later his fake wife for a year in order to help her pay for Yale law school. On the day of the meeting no one is more surprised than Jack when Kelly waltzes in like she owns the place and announces to his aunt and to Jack that she is his fiancé. Jack is instantly relieved and very curious who this woman is. Jack is always in charge and Kelly has thrown him for a loop. It’s evident from the get-go that they are attracted to each other and have similar interests. Against both of their better judgments they end up falling in love with each other.
This book was well written and had a good plot twist at the end. The only thing that I thought could be improved was the character development. We don’t really know all that much about Kelly before Jack. Also some parts of the book especially the ending seemed sort of rushed. Overall, I enjoyed reading this book and I plan to read the next in this series.
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
