My rating: 💋💋💋💋

A week-long trip. A fake marriage. And seven delicious nights with only one bed in the hotel room.

He's my business partner, my good friend, and the man I've craved for years.
But I've resisted the sexy Brit, and I plan to keep up my walls because I've been there, done that, and I know how much it hurts when you let someone into your heart.
Then an opportunity comes along for us to snag the business deal of a lifetime.
The catch?
We need to pretend we're married to pull off this high-stakes deal.
So the clever, charming man with secrets a mile deep becomes my temporary husband, as we travel around Europe. Soon, we fall into bed, tangled together like newlyweds who can't keep their hands off each other.
One week to explore our fantasies, then we return to who we were.
But when I learn the dark secrets he's been keeping, I doubt we can go back.
Because they change everything.

Plot Summary :
Daniel and Scarlett are Business partners and have an amazing relationship. That is until a crazy idea makes them pretend to be husband and wife.
Scarlett has always wanted the handsome britt by her side to be hers. At the risk of destroying their relationship , she always kept her distance but with this facade they are polling off , it becomes tougher and tougher.

Daniel has wanted Scarlett since the moment he saw her and now he can finally have her all to himself. She is everything he ever wanted and there is nothing he won’t do for her. Anything , except disclosing all his secrets to her. That is one thing he can't do because she can't know what he was before he became a world famous business tycoon.

Overall Opinion :
This book started off so very good! I am not a person who is very very enthusiastic about Contemporary romances but this one kept me hooked right from the start. It was definitely the charm that the characters possessed which kept me hooked. I wanted to know what happened next and couldn’t wait to uncover more of their secrets!

I don't know if it was at 60% or 70% but the chemistry between the main leads sort of fizzled out. I found myself skimming the pages and eager to reach the end so that I could finally see those said secrets and the book became boring to me. It was a one time read for me. If you are a diehard fan of contemporary romance and love britts who are sexy and charming as hell then there is no chance you can miss this book!
