Engaged to Mr. Right: A Fake Marriage Romance (Mr. Right Series Book 1) by Lilian Monroe
Max had big dreams but four years ago a tackle shattered his knee, his dream of going to the NFL and the woman that he thought loved him. Now, he spends his Monday at physical therapy. The only bright spot is his therapist, Naomi. He never knew the knee was erogenous zone but it’s doing all sorts of things to his system when she touches it. Naomi looks forward to Mondays and working with Max. For one, it gives her an excuse to put her hands on him. When Max’s parents give him an ultimatum of either get married or he loses his inheritance, he turns to only woman he can think of for help. When he asks her, she is understandably shocked? When she agrees he ask his fake fiancé on a real date so they can get to know each other. At least that is what he is telling himself.
This is a great start to a new series by Lilian Monroe! I absolutely loved the chemistry between these two characters. I laughed at the banter between Max and Naomi and how she always seems to have the last word. The relationship was endearing in so many ways. Max cared about her and wanted to comfort her from the very beginning. It even followed into his interactions with her mother and her situation. Naomi was good for him because she grounded him with all the chaos with is parents. She gave him strength to be himself. I about lost it when she couldn’t find the coffee cups in his kitchen and the fancy wine! At 2 am I tried so hard to be quiet and not laugh but it made it worse!
Engaged to Mr. Wrong, A Sports Romance (Mr. Right Series: Book 2) by Lilian Monroe
Farrah’s relationship with Elijah has always been a rocky one. They have been together for over two years and she doesn’t want to just throw it away. He only cares about himself and most of the time he is flirting with other girls even in front of her. His older brother, Jesse is the complete opposite.
I think I smiled almost the entire time I read this book. Farrah and Jesse together just make me happy and I don’t mind admitting it in the least. She knows that being with Jesse is wrong on so many levels and that people won’t understand. But in the end, the heart wants what the heart wants. She gave her heart to him when he took the splinter out of her hand. Jesse puts her first and cares about what she wants. He asks about her dreams, her goals. None of the other men in her life ever did that. These are two people that are so perfect for each other and I know I say that a lot, but they are. They raise each other up and without wanting anything in return.
