Hi there!
Welcome back to Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers.
Today, we're joining Rachel's Random Resources for a stop along their current tour featuring the work of author Linda West. It's a title that recently went through a few changes (like the actual title changed, the blurb, and so on), but what was lost versus gained doesn't change to magic and fun of the story. So, if you're ready, let's get this show on the snow covered (somewhere...not here...it's HOT!) road and welcome today's blog tour guest and book of choice...
My Christmas Fake Fiancé

It's the most wonderful time of the year...for most.
Allie is suffering from "I've-returned-home-for-the-holidays-and-nothing-is-the-same"-itis combined with "my-boyfriend-now-ex-broke-my-heart-but-I'm-a-strong-woman-who-is-going-to-focus-on-myself-despite-the-seasonal-love-all-around"-it is...and it's thrown her world into a tizzy. I SO GOT the tantrum of sorts she has upon finding that FOR SALE sign in her childhood yard, but her dedication to solving the BIG BAD problem was admirable...even if it brought an unexpected Grinch-type into the mix. Enter Devlin Sommerset....
He's THE GUY that women swoon for, but Allie knew him once upon a time, and while he was still drool worthy then, his attitude never did him any favors. Her entry into his life at a time that he's in a compromised position of a sort is an unexpected meet cute if ever there was...and while they both are simply thinking in business terms and agreements to get what they want...the heart wants what it wants, and sometimes Christmas miracles DO happen.
Honestly, I enjoyed this holiday tinged Contemporary Romance from cover to cover...and I mean that quite literally! I really liked the festive cover combined with the couple's image; it gave you a feel for what might be inside. Once the pages began turning, I found myself wanting to share passages with others around me at random because they were just that good, or funny, or fun, or notable! Like the time Allie is contemplating how to get the $200,000 and the idea of a mafia connection is brought up. OMG...ridiculously funny! All in all, a great add to your holiday reading lists this season to warm the heart, tickle the funny bone, and remind us all that sometimes THE ONE shows us when we least expect it.
