Bestselling author Lisa Suzanne’s newest standalone romantic comedy features rock stars, a best friend’s older brother, and an accidental Vegas wedding.I’ve never seen Emily Clarke as anything more than my little sister’s best friend.One drunken mistake later, she’s my wife.My first thought is how to get out of this, except our wedding video has gone viral and record sales are skyrocketing. My … and record sales are skyrocketing. My manager thinks following the newlyweds on the second season of my band’s reality show will keep up the momentum.
I just have to get Emily to agree to faking this marriage for six months, and then we can quietly divorce.
Right?
Wrong.
Nothing is quite that simple when feelings blur the line between a contract and reality.
I ended up with more than just a hangover when I found myself waking up married.

Another amazing book by Ms. Suzanne! It just amazes me that she can write such wonderful, insightful, can’t put the book down stories every time.
It had to be hard for Emily to have a crush on Adam since she was in middle school and try hard not to show it. Especially since he always thought of her as his annoying little sister’s annoying best friend. Sometimes our plans don’t go the way we think they are going. Emily found that out when she went to Las Vegas with Amber, her best friend and Adam’s sister, to celebrate Amber’s birthday and then find out she got drunk married to her childhood crush.
Since Adam and his band are going to be filmed again on the road, the band wants the two to stay married, especially since Adam and Bree broke up on the last show that was filmed. I can’t even begin to imagine how it would feel to fake being in love, but really being in love with your husband and not let him know. Sounds confusing huh? The emotions and ups and downs that the two went through were touching and frustrating at times. And then when you throw the ex in—the things that can happen along with misunderstandings can get wild. I was so thankful for the guys in the band having Adam’s back as well as one of the guys’ fiancé helping Emily out. This is a great book that I strongly encourage you to read. I was given a copy of the book and voluntarily wrote a review.
Rate: 4,5 / 5 stars
A rockstar romance and also a bestfriend’s brother to lover? Oh yes please!
I think you probably know by now how much a sucker I am for Lisa Suzanne’s rockstar romances and Adam well, I think he was pretty special and I could not have loved him more.
Waking Up Married was unputdownable, funny, romantic and had all the things I love in a rockstar romance – a bit of drama, getting to see the band go on tour and having the heroine tag along and an awesome tight-knit family. And of course I can’t not mention how Lisa always gives us a bit of her old characters which I LOVE! We always get to see our favorites characters from her and it always makes the book a bit more special in my eyes.
Getting into the main charcaters though, I adored both the hero and heroine. Their story is a bit of a insta love but it didn’t bother me because these two have a long history – Adam is Amber’s brother who happens to be Emily’s bestfriend. And all her life Emily has had a crush on Adam so when she wakes up married to Adam. after a weekend celebrating Amber’s birthday in Vegas, she is mindblown and can’t help but be a little happy… the teen girl still inside definitely squeeled ahah. These two are forced to stay married for the sake of the reality show and sales. And watching them work up a plan to make things work for both of them is pretty great… soon feelings come back for Emily and Adam realises how the right girl has been in front of his eyes all along. It’s a pretty sweet and fun story that will pull you in from the first page until the last.
This an accidental/fake marriage and a bestfriends sibling romance all-in-one and it’s a pretty fun and, sometimes a little angsty, ride.
I fell in love with Adam in the first chapter, the very non typical rock star. And then there is Emily, she is so sweet and so perfect for Adam. These two made me fall in love with this book, it gave me all the feels, but mostly it gave me that giddy school girl feeling. I don’t want to go into too much detail, I want you the reader to experience what I did, love from the beginning. Defs a 5 star read!
I’m such a huge fan of Lisa Suzanne’s rock star romances. I can always count on her to deliver an unputdownable, funny, feel-good romance, which is I read her books time and time again. And once again, she has penned another winner with Waking Up Married. It was right up my alley, and I loved everything about it. An imaginative plot coupled with endearing characters in a sweet and sexy romance that is both heart-tugging and heartwarming. This was pure rock star perfection from start to finish.
I loved Adam and Emily’s story! It hooked me right until the end. I couldn’t put it down. Blending the tropes of rockstar romance with best friend’s sibling and accidental/fake marriage made for an addictive and super fun read. Every character were all relatable and endearing, making this story a sweet, sexy, funny, light-hearted, and heart-warming.
Simply romantic and simply entertaining. Once again, Lisa Suzanne creates plots that warm the hearts and tugs at the emotions. I absolutely loved all of the subplots of the book as well and look forward to the next one.
Another amazing story from Lisa Suzanne! I have been anxiously awaiting this story since she mentioned she was writing it . I was not disappointed at all, it starts off with a bang. I think Emily and Adam are my new favorite couple. There were times I wanted to scream at them for being so wishy washy but I knew it would all pay off in the end.
