When travelwisdom.com assigns PR specialist Caroline Beckett and travel blogger Emma Morgan to cover a hot new couples retreat, they're forced to fake a relationship to secure a reservation. Ten days in paradise would be a dream assignment, if only they'd stop arguing long enough to enjoy it. Reputations are Caroline's business. Too bad she was forced out of her previous job when an ex smeared hers all over the office grapevine. She's never getting involved with a coworker again, especially not one as careless and unprofessional as Emma. Emma knows that life is too short to play by the rules. But when she goes too far and a defamation lawsuit puts her job in jeopardy, she has to make nice with Caroline, the image police, and deliver the best story of her career. Only pretending to be in love sure feels a whole lot like falling in love. When their story goes public, ambition and privacy collide, and their chance at making a fake relationship real might just be collateral damage.… (mehr)

This was a great read. I took a while to warm to Emma as a character, but I think that largely comes down to Caroline's observation of her in the early chapters when they're still in the "enemies" phase of their enemies-to-lovers journey.

Once the ball starts rolling, author M. Ullrich gives us a pair of lovable women who need to be together, and the fact that this is a romance novel so we know it'll happen didn't stop me cheering them along the way.

This is a slow-burn romance, and all the better for it, and when the sex comes it is tender and joyful and kindle-meltingly hot.

Very highly recommended. ( )

Caroline is new to her job (first day sort of new). She's a PR specialist for a travel website.

Emma is a travel reviewer/blogger for that website and she and the company both women work for have just been hit with a defamation lawsuit.

So, the two women do not meet in the best possible way. And then it only gets weirder and more awkward when their boss sends not just Emma, but Caroline too, to a new couples only retreat in Miami for Emma to review. Caroline, meanwhile, is there to babysit Emma and make sure she doesn't get in even more trouble.

Of course, since it's only for couples, they have to pretend to be one. And, also not surprisingly, slowly but surely they get closer and closer, although there are a few definite bumps in the road that connects them.

I liked a lot of the book, but, not so much Emma. I really really really didn't like her at the beginning of the book, and I guess that I liked her a little more as the book went on, but, even at the end, the Emma characters wasn't even my third or fourth favorite character in the book. On the other hand I thought that how Caroline was written was brilliant.

I received this book via Netgalley thanks to Bold Strokes Books. ( )
