He’s not going to rip me off, no matter how powerful this man is. Now he wants me to pretend to be his wife! This guy has some nerve.I don’t work for free, and I know he has more than enough money to pay what he owes me.I created a one-of-a-kind piece of ironwork for him, art that came straight from my soul.Then he brings up this insane offer, one I’d normally refuse.But the price he’s willing to … normally refuse.
But the price he’s willing to pay would make my life much easier.
So I agree.
Everything goes fine until I get to know him.
I feel things for him I shouldn’t.
Can I risk falling for him?

This is a captivating and interesting fast pace page-turner. Beautifully written with a well-developed relatable plot. The relationship between Rafe and Violet started out as a business arrangement; and along the way it changed as the chemistry between them grew potent and intense. The couple had to navigate a number of ups and downs on their path to HEA but they got there. Definitely recommended.

Four and half stars. I have not read many books by this author. However, the ones that I have read are interesting and unique to the characters in the story. This book is no exception. This is Violet and single dad Rafe’s story. It is a sweet love story that make the story steamy. Rafe needs a fake fiancee and he enlists Violet’s help. The characters have amazing chemistry. The story flows smoothly. This is one book that will make for a great, steamy read.

Nice
Violet works hard for her money. Mr. Benson wants to pay her for services rendered & much more. Fake marriage!
I just love Jillians books. Such a nice read always.
Yes we have all these books about fake marriages for business deals and in truth this one is not different BUT instead of focusing on the fake marriage Ms. Riley does the most softest and sweetest emotional tear jerking version! Rafe wants more time with his son and she hates big money!!! Low and behold Travis becomes a sweet reason!

For the past year I have read so many Fake wife books, but this one was well and truly one of the best. Violet was not the little wall flower you may think, but a very strong woman who knew what she wanted in life.
Rafe was just your every day man who had a one night stand and of course a surprise baby that he knew nothing about for the past six years and he wants to sell his company so that he can spend more time with him.
A mistake was made by the man who was to buy Rafe company, he thought Rafe was married, so Rafe has to find a fake wife.
These two will fight their feeling because neither is looking for love. But will the lie come out and Rafe lose the deal of a life time? Read to find out…

This is a well written book with strong likable characters and a sweet romance. The author does a great job bringing Rafe and Violet together and weaves an entertaining love story. It moves quickly and smoothly and I enjoyed reading.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own and freely given.
This is an entertaining romance between billionaire Rafe and artist Violet. The plot is nothing new or exciting but the author’s writing was able to catch my attention from the beginning and I grew attached to these characters and their journey with every page. What starts out as a fake marriage turns into something more. The build up of the sexual tension between the leads is extremely entertaining. It is a delightful love story with just enough drama and steam, plus engaging secondary characters to keep the reader interested. Overall, it is an easy read with heart, heat and a happy ending.

Rafe Benson had decided to sell his company and was half-listening to Skylar Dennis on the videoconference as he watched his 6-year-old son building something spectacular with Lego’s in the corner of the room. The man realized he didn’t have Rafe’s full attention as Rafe apologized for the distraction due to his son being in the office. To his surprise, Skylar laughed and was delighted to discover that Rafe was a family man! He admitted he had doubts about their doing business together, fearing Rafe was the playboy type. But now he eagerly invited Rafe, his wife, and his son to a company get-together at his lake house with all the VPs and important people, sort of a company retreat. He said they could finalize the paperwork there, couldn’t wait to meet his family, and he hung up! Now Rafe would have to find a wife in less than a week to present the family Skylar Dennis expected to see! His sister, Chloe, tried to hold back a laugh.
Violet Chambers was working on her latest ironwork art project for a wealthy client. Her welding mask and protective overalls made her sweat, but she wouldn’t ever trade her artwork to be back in law school or to live the debutante life her parents wanted for her. She didn’t need her family’s money; she did well on her own. She put the final touches on the gorgeous magnolia tree she had just designed. Time to get paid! However, the man who had hired her no longer worked for the wealthy Mr. Benson, and now she would have to wait to find out if he would accept and pay for the sculpture! She needed payment now – she had bills and risked losing her studio if the money would be delayed!
When the rude butler tried to push her away from the door, her protective dog leaped at him and knocked him over! Tables and a clock fell over and a little boy ran into the room, delighted at the playful dog. Violet turned to chase after her dog in the chaos and ran right into hard muscles! Rafe’s sister followed into the room and recognized Violet, reminding her brother they knew the family and their mothers were friends. Then she told Rafe, “If you are thinking what I think you’re thinking. I agree. Ms. Chambers would be absolutely perfect.” Violet was totally confused – perfect? When he explained the situation and offered to pay her triple what he owed for the artwork if she would be his pretend wife, she was stunned. She would have walked out – she hated the arrogance of the rich. But when he told her he needed this deal for his son, so he could have more available time to be with him, she turned back to listen. Her own parents had never been around, so she knew this mattered. Chloe would hang with her this week and tell her everything she needed to know about her brother – then they would go shopping! Would this crazy plan work? She at least had a written contract now, and no hanky-panky allowed! But would that help her deal with her own attraction to him? Good thing he didn’t feel the same way!
This book was adorable! Between the dog and the child, the reader’s heart is already wrapped up in a bow! Chloe was a fantastic sister and friend, conniving to get Violet and Rafe comfortable in the relationship . . . or maybe a bit UN-comfortable, in the best of ways. The story line was perfect, well-paced, funny (re-read the butler scene if you need a reminder), and just a perfect feel-good book. I loved every page! I guess that lucky magnolia tree Rafe’s mom told him about really works! Highly recommended – you won’t want to miss this one!
This was a cute story. The characters, all of them, were both funny and loving as well as well defined in this story. I liked the ending the best. I am looking forward to reading more by this author.

Excellent story! Actually, worthy of more than 5 STARS. I loved the way the author introduced us to the characters and I loved how the story wove around them.
It was a delightful book. It had everything I like in a book, a few plot twists, angst, laughter, love, a great story, and very likable believable characters. And best of all an HEA ending. Well worth the read. For me it was a one sitting read.

A short, sweet heart tugging romance that will make you smile and curl your toes. Wonderful. Beautifully written. Such an incredible love story. I positively loved it.
This was a really good book. The way Jillian Riley wrote Rafe and Violet was very good. Their chemistry flowed so easily. Travis was such realistic child When he was sitting by himself under the tree broke my heart from what he was feeling. I would have no problem recommending this book to anyone who asks for a book recommendation.
