The comedy in this book OH.MY.GOD is just fabulous. I was literally laughing while reading this book. ~Bed and Books I’m no Prince Charming, and the last thing I want is a Cinderella.My instructions were simple: scour the city for a fake fiancée who’s not my type at all. Have her on my jet Monday morning, dressed for a yacht vacation. I need a woman believable enough to convince a certain … enough to convince a certain client that I’ve changed my playboy ways…yet too annoying to tempt me—no emotional entanglements, thank you very much. This is business only.
If she’s unfazed by my looks and wealth, all the better. Should be easy. Right?
Apparently not, because my people go and hire Tabitha. My hairdresser.
What were they thinking? Yes, I said annoying, but I didn’t mean her, the most aggravating woman in the world.
Tabitha is sunshiny. She has a pet hamster. She loves Hello Kitty, and she gets under my skin like nobody else.
As if that’s not bad enough, the minute we step on deck, she thinks that certain people on the yacht are up to something shady—based completely on her soap opera knowledge. She won’t listen when I tell her she’s being ridiculous.
But as the days go by, I find that we’re actually having fun. And our fake kisses are heating up. And suddenly her wild theories aren’t sounding so strange after all…

First off, if you loved the other Billionaire books you will definitely want to read about Tabitha and Rex! Rex is your typical grumpy bachelor that is a wham-bam-thank you ma’am type of guy. He gets a once-a-week haircut from Tabitha, who happens to drive him crazy. I love Tabitha and her spirit, but there were also times I wanted to strangle her!! I love the cameos by previous characters, especially Smuckers!! Tabitha almost succeeds in denying herself the love she deserves because of past trauma. You will love the HEA the two of them deserve, because they work hard to get there! I found myself laughing out loud quite a few times, but there is also drama and angst to make the story even more interesting. I definitely recommend this and all of the other Billionaire books too!! Enjoy!!
3.75-4 stars. This was a cute book! The Billionaire’s Fake Fiance is a standalone rom-com. Tabitha is good friends with a few of the other heroines from Ms. Martin’s other books. She is a mobile, concierge hairdresser for high end clients. Every week, she cuts Rex’s hair in his office.
He is rude and grumpy, but she takes it all in stride and tries to brighten his day. Her personality grates on his nerves, but he puts up with it because she doesn’t act scared of his bark. A defamatory tabloid article paints him as a playboy, when he’s really more of a reclusive workaholic. He must spruce up his image for his most important, conservative, matriarchal client. He is competing for her business. So Rex decides to hire woman to play his fake fiance on a two week yachting trip his client has invited him on. He wants a woman that he won’t be interested in romantically or physically, so as not to complicate his trip. He makes a list of what he hates in a woman, so that his assistant can find the perfect woman for the job. Meanwhile, Tabitha has an injured wrist and is not able to continue cutting hair for a few weeks, so she is in need of money. Rex’s assistant decides to hire Tabitha. She joins Rex on his yacht vacation, playing the perfect fiance and causing all of the other guests to fall in love with her fun personality. As Tabitha and Rex spend time together, sparks fly and feelings bloom. They also find themselves embroiled in a mystery involving his client’s shady relative on the ship. Rex and Tabitha soon find their fake relationship is not so fake after all.
I enjoyed this book a lot. This couple were very much opposites attracted. Tabitha had such a fun, sunshiney personality, which I loved. Rex was grouchy with a soft gooey middle. They were a perfect match and just what each other needed. Rex is a little rude and cold at first, but he is drawn into Tab’s charm. Rex finds he doesn’t hate Tabitha’s personality after all. He really adored her, even if he didn’t know it at first. She is a little guarded because of men from her past and doesn’t have serious relationships. Neither of them are interested in a relationship, but feelings develop between them and they decide to take a risk. I liked them both a lot, even if I wanted Tabitha to give in to her feelings a little sooner. Rex and Tabitha had a great opposites attract dynamic and amazing chemistry. The way the couple snuck around to investigate on this ritzy yacht was so fun. I definitely could see this book as a rom-com movie, similar in style to Murder Mystery. The yacht setting was a great one, too. I did want a few more happy times in the resolution after the climax and to see the couple together in their daily life, but that is a nitpicky, personal preference.
Overall, this was a cute, funny romantic comedy with some emotional moments. Rex and Tabitha were adorable together. It was fun seeing their relationship develop. I look forward to more from Ms. Martin in the future.
Pure enjoyment! Laughs, love and sexy times! It’s more of an opposites attract than an enemies to lovers. These characters are fabulous! The always sparkly, happy Tabitha is a marvel. I loved her so much with her upbeat personality and quirky apparel. But look underneath and there’s so much more going on. And then there’s the gruff, broody, too handsome billionaire, Rex. Such a panty melter! He comes from a trouble background and has earned everything he has by hard work and his smarts. On the cusp of his biggest deal yet (rule the world big) he needs some help, or so he thinks, with his image. His terrific right hand, Clark, is tasked with finding Rex a fake fiancé to seal the deal. But his hairdresser?! The one person that drives him nuts with her soap opera watching and her upbeat personality and her crazy attire. This sets up for a rollicking good read as the two fake their way through a two week stay on a super yacht with the potential client and her family. As the two grow close, Rex sees that there’s so much more to his lovely hairdresser than he thought and Tabitha just falls deeper. These two are one sexy couple! But mystery and intrigue is afoot and the two are determined to get to the bottom. Alas, Tabitha stumbles upon a damning piece of information and the romance gets turned upside down. But Rex wants the girl and his big sacrifice to win her back was heart melting. The writing is fantastic, the characters outstanding, the romance is sweet and sexy, and there are a few laugh out loud moments. One not to be missed! I voluntarily reviewed an ARC. 4.5 stars
•℘•*´`*• 5 STAR REVIEW •*´`*•℘•
The highest compliment I can give The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancée is that it made my husband lose his beauty sleep. It’s been a while since I woke him up with a start due to my uncontrollable and loud laughter while reading. He hates when I do that because he knows I’ll want to discuss what made me laugh so hard, and honestly he doesn’t want to know the reason, he just wants to go back to sleep.
This delightful Rom Com is a lighthearted and fun adventure, with a little mystery thrown in, and it reminded me how much I loved the soap operas of my youth. Tabitha, the Main Character, was obsessed with soap operas and talked about them and the characters often. Both MCs had so much chemistry and I absolutely loved the witty back and forth, knowing it was just a question of when they’d realize they had real feelings for each other. There’s also a teeny, tiny, little bit of angst to help build up the anticipation, making me love the characters more than I already did. This is such a fun read, do yourselves a favor and don’t miss out!
“Look, did you ever notice how, when Hollywood actors get cast to play a couple in a film, they sometimes end up together in real life? That is the power of pretending to be a couple when you’re not. It’s one of the biggest dangers of the fake fiancée thing. When you act as if, sometimes you buy your own illusion.”
Tabitha Evans is happy working as her own boss; she’s a hairdresser with a list of wealthy clients she visits with her mobile salon for their standing appointments. She doesn’t like to dwell on her unhappy childhood or her ex-fiancé. At thirty-one, Tabitha is content with her life; she loves watching her beloved soap operas, something she’s a little obsessed with, and hanging out with her girlfriends.
Unfortunately her life is on hold for at least six weeks; she’s unable to work due to a repetitive stress injury, forced to wear a brace on her wrist, and Tabitha’s unsure how she’s going to afford to pay her rent, or eat for that matter.
“’Just because something is on a soap opera it doesn’t mean it doesn’t also happen in the real world.’ Except maybe Dark Shadows, but I’m hardly going to bring a vampire soap opera into the discussion at this point.”
Rex O’Rourke is a financial powerbroker, the head of Rex O’Rourke Capital and at forty, he’s a self-made billionaire. The workaholic rarely takes time off but knows his image is everything so he’s usually photographed with models or celebrities at social events. Everyone knows he never sleeps or dates a woman more than twice and as a result he has a reputation as a ladies man.
“You can’t kill the messenger.” “Actually, you can kill the messenger. There’s a long tradition of messengers’ severed heads being sent right back to the sender of the message as a way of strongly rejecting that message.”
When he’s informed he’s on the verge of losing one of his biggest accounts, due to his reputation, Rex needs to find a solution. His assistant, Clark, comes up with a plan for Rex to attend a two-week work related trip to salvage the account, accompanied by his fiancée, to help him repair his reputation and be taken seriously. They just need to find and hire someone to play the part. He tells Clark to deal with it, Rex doesn’t care who he finds, and together they come up with a list of qualities he hates, just to make sure he won’t be tempted by whoever Clark hires.
“Who exactly are we talking about here? Who specifically has this happened to?””Uh…the Quartermaines..the Chandlers…” “Oh, Jesus Christ. Are you talking about your soap opera? Seriously!?”
Clark decides Tabitha is perfect for the part. Rex apparently despises his hairdresser, especially since she tends to babble about her idiotic soap operas, and she checks off all the boxes on his hate list so she’ll do. This is when the shenanigans begin, and so much fun is about to go down!
“Fun Tabitha is mysteriously compelling, but furious Tabitha is a force of nature.”
Rex and Tabitha are the cutest couple! I absolutely swooned over the two of them together! Every time she would describe their relationship or he would scowl and growl over something was another swoon from me and extremely adorable. I also loved the soap opera theme throughout the book, from all of the different characters. I can’t say any more without spoilers, but it is definitely worth reading.
I always enjoy reading books by the terrific Annika Martin and this book was no exception. She did not disappoint on a single level. There was couple cuteness, soap drama, a beautiful HEA, and quite a few great cameos from favorite characters from previous books. I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next!
Have you ever seen the movie, 10 Things I Hate About You with the late gorgeous Heath Ledger, well welcome to the new adult version featuriung two people so opposie from each other you will laugh all the way. We have the billionaire and oh so brooding, sexy Rex O’ Rourke, who you will want to just go all awe when you read about his story. Then we have the crazy, loveable and somewhat soap opera addict Tabitha who might just be the one to make him a believer into soap operas. I loved the whole storyline between these two the billionaire falling for his hairdress yipes. The chemistry is unlike any he has experience and it scares him that she might be the one to make him well go all soft. He never expected this to happen but dang Annika Martin does a great job in showing us that even billionaire’s cold hearts can melt. Not only do we have a list of yes hateful things but somewhat annoying it is exactly the push Rex needs to have well a better life in love and business. Great story by Annika and cannot wait to see what else she has in store with Tabitha’s friends.
“I received an eBook copy from the publisher for the purpose of an honest review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own.”
I loved “The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancee” by Annika Martin, a sweet, charming, funny story featuring likeable, well-developed main characters and an engaging plot that kept me glued to my Kindle for hours. I’ve been a big fan of grouchy heroes ever since watching the movie “Pretty Woman” for the first time, and the male lead of this book, Rex, seemed to have a bit of the same grumpy, workaholic vibe as Richard Gere does in the movie. I loved how protective Rex was of the female lead, Tabitha, even when he seemed annoyed by her, and how Tabitha managed to bring out his softer side when they were together.
Unlike grouchy Rex, Tabitha was very outgoing and positive with a great sense of humor. She proved to be an asset to him on the yacht trip, quickly forming a bond with his client Gail and several of the other guests. Tabitha was also quite intelligent and much more observant than most people initially realized, including Rex. Even her love of soap operas ended up being useful because it helped her think outside the box, and even though Rex didn’t believe it to be possible, some of Tabitha’s wild theories turned out to be true and ended up helping him in his business dealings with Gail.
In addition to Tabitha and Rex, I loved the book’s secondary characters, especially Tabitha’s friends from her apartment building because of the way they always supported each other. Mail carrier Noelle will be the next one of this group to be featured in a story, and I can’t wait to get my hands on it!
Overall, “The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancee” was a fun, sweet story, and I highly recommend it. I look forward to Annika Martin’s next book.

Rating this book 5 stars just doesn’t seem like enough. This story was epically glorious on multiple levels ! The amount of time I spent laughing and smiling while reading this book should be criminal. I extended my reading time of this book to two days just so I could feel total happiness a little bit longer. The world is in crisis right now and Annika Martin has come to the rescue!
Listen, I’ve been reading Annika’s work for a lot of years. I’ve met her in person. She is one of my all time favorite humans. Don’t mistake my praise for this book because I genuinely like the woman because believe me when I say that if this book was any less than absolute perfection, I would tell you. Honestly, it is absolute perfection.
I’m not going to give you plot points on the story because I want every word, every page, every scene, every everything to unfold for you organically and without prejudice. Well, except for the part up there where I told you it’s perfect LOL I do however want to touch on one thing. This is a romantic comedy but that’s not all it is. This story, especially Rex , was like the metamorphosis of a butterfly. If you pay close attention, the growth and evolvement that Rex goes thru in this story was like watching a butterfly come to life. His grumpy, self-involved self went thru distinct stages of growth that made the story stand out for me. It wasn’t just a romance journey it was way more and I hope all of you decide to take this ride because it is just excellent! #TRUST
‘The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancée’ was a really good read. It was a rom-com with some OTP moments and hilarious situations, providing many laughs and good feels by the end. Everything about this book was so much more than I expected and I loved it.
This is the story of Tabitha and Rex, a hairdresser and a work obsessed playboy billionaire. For two years she has visited his office on a Friday to cut his hair, for two years he seems to do nothing but hate her. When Rex is put in a situation where he needs a fake fiancée to seal a business deal, who better than the woman he can’t stand to be near, no temptation. But…..
This storyline includes a mystery to solve, heartbreak and unexpected romance, aboard a luxury yacht. Can they pull off the fake relationship, pretending to be madly in love, while solving the secrets aboard? Is everything about Tabitha really what Rex hates in a woman?
So I read a couple other reviews for this book and saw how much disdain there was for Rex at the start of the story, for his “not sleeping with the same woman twice”. While I’m not a fan of that choice, I’m not gonna let it keep me from embracing a character until they’ve given an excellent reason for needing to be throat punched. I get his decision, to a degree: he’d rather be making money than having to expend time and energy getting to know someone and investing in feelings, rather than building his corporation into a conglomerate.
There’s a lot more to Rex than just his growly, no-nonsense attitude, he just needed the right person to bring that side out; from waaaay down in the hidden depths of his soul where he stores things like emotions and feelings, you know, things the normal human experiences.
Now Tabitha on the other hand? Sis is a riot from start to finish and I love everything about her. She might give off the appearance of a bubblehead, but girlie has insights and instincts that hit the target, regardless of how she got to the conclusion. She stands up for what she believes in, even if no one else is taking her seriously. It’s obvious almost from the start that there is some serious chemistry between these two, but Rex absolutely refuses to acknowledge how he feels about Tabitha.
This was okay for me. The writing wasn’t bad, but the story seemed to drag at times. Rex was a jerk until about half way through the story and I wasn’t really sure why Tabitha liked him. Tabitha was annoying for the most part. I have nothing against soap operas, but to take them and try to apply them to real life sounds like someone needs therapy. After overlooking that, when Rex finally gets over himself and realizes that he likes Tabitha, she keeps pushing him away because of her jerk of an ex and dad. I rolled my eyes lots of times. The ending was sweet and I liked that Rex was willing to give up what he thought he wanted for Tabitha.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced readers copy of this book.
The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancée by Annika Martin was a fun and charming read to get lost in. A fake relationship story that will have you laughing and swooning. Rex O’Rourke did not get where he is today by accident. The billionaire is determined, grouchy and used to getting his way. But when a new account he desperately wants is slipping out his hands, he is resolute to do what it takes to win. Enter Tabitha Evans, the woman that drives him absolutely insane, right?
So, to show he is a different man, he wants a woman to pass as his fiancée, but she needs to be someone who he will not crave and can control. Tabitha, his total opposite, is easy-going, quirky and drives him crazy with her talk of soap opera drama mirroring real life. Their fake relationship should be easy enough to believe and ignore when he needs too. I loved Tabitha. She was both one of the strongest female characters I have ever seen but also showed vulnerability due to past experiences. While she should be driving him crazy, she is actually brining out a different side of Rex. And Rex is seeing a side of her that drives him crazy in a totally different and unexpected way.
Add in laugh out loud moments and a bit in intrigue, and this story had it all. A fun and delightful read for sure!

Happy reading!
The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancée is the newest release from Annika Martin. This is the first book in the Billionaires of Manhattan I’ve read, and it reads really well as a stand-alone. This rom-com features Rex O’Rourke a finance wiz and Tabitha Evans, who has been his hairdresser for the last 2 years. Rex has the chance to win the biggest account of his career, but only if he goes on a two week vacation on Gail Driscoll’s yacht with his fiancée. There is just one little problem…he doesn’t have one. Enter hairdresser Tabitha who fits the bill perfectly for Rex’s future wife as she is the complete opposite of his idea of a perfect woman.
I adored both Rex and Tabitha. Rex is very growly and set in his ways, whereas Tabitha always seems to have a smile on her face. I adored how she shared so many theories she had about people and scheming based upon her love for soap operas, especially Days of our Lives and One Life to Live. I haven’t watched a soap opera in years, yet found myself laughing each time Tabitha mentioned one as they are the same now as they were when I used to watch. I loved that Tabitha totally accepted Rex exactly as he was and didn’t really try to change him. Honestly it made the fact that he slowly changed himself for her even sweeter.
The back and forth banter between Rex and Tabitha was foreplay to their physical relationship. I loved the more time they were together, the more time they each wanted to be in each other’s company. It was especially refreshing with Rex, as he was taking a break from working around the clock for the first time in years to spend more time with Tabitha. Rex and Tabitha as a couple gave me all the happy feels and I absolutely adored their journey.
Annika Martin gives her readers a fun and fast-paced rom-com and I can’t wait to read more books from her in the future. Luckily she has an extensive back list to keep me reading for a while. I highly recommend The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancée to contemporary romance readers who love a bit of comedy with their romance.
Rating: 4.5 Stars (B+)
Review copy provided by publisher
I remember watching a story about why comedies do not often get Oscar nominations. Comedies are under-appreciated because the great comedy writers make it look effortless. I think this holds true for writers of romantic comedy as well. It is easy to overlook the masterful way a story is told because it is light and funny. When I finished this book, I let out a sweet sigh of satisfaction. When I went to write this review, I was struck at how well-crafted the narrative was (note: the Versace Mullet). I love the romance, I love the sizzling interactions, and I love the suspense of a good mystery.
There is so much to love about this book, but my favorite part of the story is the heroine, Tabitha. She is almost endlessly optimistic and chooses to see the good in people and situations (albeit, she has a healthy dose of soap-opera skepticism). She is good at reading people and people tend to lean into her positive energy. As we learn, her background is heartbreaking, and she knows her own mind. I love people like that. Interestingly enough, when I look at the other heroines in this series, they stand out to me for their genuine goodness and sparkle. Each of them is multi-faceted and smart. I have to imagine Annika Martin is as sweet as her characters, because you just cannot fake that kind of genuine kindness.
The chemistry between the characters is explosive. It is the very best kind of opposite attract trope. She is sparkly. He is a grouch. She is a people-person. He is basically a recluse. She is layered. He is one-dimensional, at first. It takes a lot to melt down that icy exterior. Watching the ice melt is one of my favorite things to do. The union between Tabitha and Rex reinforces the belief that there is good in the world and that love can make a difference.
Hilarious, sexy and sweetly romantic! I really loved Tabitha and Rex’s story. Fake engagement, soap opera references and amazing sexual tension – this book was perfect for my romance loving heart
The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancée by Annika Martin is book 4 in the Billionaires of Manhattan Series. This is the story of Tabitha Evans and Rex O’Rourke. I have read the previous books (and LOVED THEM!) but did feel this could be a standalone book if you wish to do so. Rex has a hardcore playboy reputation that now may impact a deal with a potential client. So Rex goes with finding a women that is totally different from any women he has dated or been seen with. Then he will pretend that she is if fiancée…fake. It is only for a two week cruise on the potential client’s yacht…what could go wrong?
Enter Tabitha his hair dresser who is also someone he has an crazy attraction too but she is totally different from him. Tabitha is all fun loving, Hello Kitty obsession, and possible soap opera addicted.
OMG…this was a fun and steamy read. Loved it! I can’t wait for more from this author!!

I voluntarily read an ARC of this book in exchange for honest review.
This is the first time I am reading and reviewing Annika Martin’s book and I am excited that I am reviewing “The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancée” because it turned out to be totally different than what I expected. It made me laugh out loud like a lunatic several times in a book.
Tabitha is a hair dresser and currently suffering from a setback in her business due to repetitive stress injury in her wrist. Rex is a self-made billionaire by managing other people’s assets. He runs his own firm now. Now he is looking to bag Driscoll account but they have asked for a review. Rex and Clark think it’s due to his playboy image. To repair that image and impress Driscoll owner they come up with a plan of fake fiancée and accepts Driscoll’s invitation to spend couple of weeks in a yacht.
Tabitha ticks of all the items in Rex’s hate list. Tabitha is lively, cute and feisty with bubbly personality along with an extremely positive attitude who loves hello kitty and Soap opera’s. Rex is jerk, control freak being brooding, growling and grumpy. They are polar opposites of each other. Tabitha takes his dull and boring world by storm and fills it up with love and laughter. This story was a laughing, smiling and warm adventure. It didn’t have a single dull moment. In the yacht, Tabitha senses a scammer and tells Rex about it. Rex doesn’t believe her and she tries to prove him wrong.
“Scammers have special radar for each other. They have Scam- dar”
Totally loved Tabitha’s bubbly & lively character. The humor of this story comes in the form of Rex and Tabitha’s banter. The integration on Hello kitty and Soap opera along with cute hot pink barbies, lively bubbly character made this delightful read. Well written with steady plot and pace with lovely secondary characters.
Over all, well-written story with delightfully entertaining RomCom. Can’t wait to see what happens with Noelle and Malcom in the next book.

Annika Martin Reviewed for A Wanton Book Lover Blog
The premise of The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancee’ revolves around Rex O’Rourke needing a “fiancee'” to land a big deal for his company. To make him look more settled and familiar orientated to the client, he enlists his staff to find him the perfect fiancee’. Rex was not happy when he finds out that his new fiancee’ is his super happy, Hello Kitty loving, soap opera loving hair dresser. Rex finds himself enjoying spending time with Tabitha and soon realizes his is falling for her.
While reading, I never knew what would be coming out of Tabitha’s mouth next. She is an over-the-top character. That being said, I personally found her to be annoying (which is more my personality vs. the writing). The story was solid and if strong, super optimistic characters don’t bother you, I think that most readers would enjoy the story.
5 Broodingly, grumpy, sexy stars!!!
The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancee by Annika Martin is the third book in the standalone series of ‘Billionaire’ books; 1:Most Eligible Billionaire and 2:The Billionaire’s Wake-up-call Girl. Characters from Book 1 pop up as Vicky is friends with Tabitha.
Tabitha is an entrepreneurial hairdresser, and every Friday night, she cuts Rex O’Rouke’s dashing locks.
Rex is a money mogul, an obsessive work-a-holic, and a playboy who never sees the same woman twice. It’s how he’s always been, but when he has to pretend to be in a relationship to gain a business account, he wants a woman whom he’d never fall for.
Rex is broody, grumpy but sexy as all get out, Tabitha is harboring some illicit feelings for him, but knows he’d never see her in that light.
When an injury puts her wrist and her business in danger of failing, she is quick to jump on an offer to help Rex.
It’s time for the fake fiances to hit the decks. Literally. A two-week vacation on a superyacht, who could say no to that.
It’s a fortnight of lush waves, golden sunsets, and a ‘soap opera’ like mystery that only Rex and Tabitha can solve.
Tabitha’s unfailing good humor and love of slapstick comedy and daytime shows bring the laughs. Rex brings the dominance and smolder. They have a chemistry that can’t be faked and are soon feeling things neither had ever expected to feel.
There was some suspense, some drama and a lot of slow-building steam, and boy, when that steam hit overloaded, did it!! You’ll look at a massage table in a new light after this, lol.
Grumpy, ruthless billionaire Rex needs a fake fiancé so he can close a deal. The last person he’d think to take that role is his complete opposite in every way, his sunshiney, Hello-Kitty loving hair stylist, Tabitha. But when the two are stuck on a yacht together, suddenly her happy personality doesn’t just annoy him, it turns him on, too. Can they make a fake relationship into a real one? Or will it be back to their respective lives once off the yacht and the deal is closed?
I was really in the mood for something light-hearted and fun, and The Billionaire’s Fake Fiancée fits that bill perfectly. Tabitha and Rex are complete opposites, but in an entertaining way. I love how much she tilted his world off its axis and brought him to his knees, even while he was struggling to contain his newfound feelings. All in all, this is a sexy, witty rom-com – just the thing to take your mind off the state of the world outside.
