After Jane Osborne is unceremoniously dumped by a rich man, and then invited to his Christmas Eve wedding, she decides to hire a date from Craigslist and pass him off as an upgrade.
Fake-boyfriend for hire Ian Brooks ends up being a delightful surprise—and a mysterious stranger she's definitely met before.
Could he be her Christmas wish come true?
“I want you to be you. Nothing else.”
Laurelin Paige writes some of the sexiest men you have ever read. And Kayti McGee writes some of the funniest characters/plotlines. So when they come together you would expect a book full of hysterical hotness. And you would be correct!
Jane Osborne was adopted as an infant and raised in a very traditional, white-collar, upper-class Boston home. She’s prim. She’s proper. And she’s *very* concerned with the opinions of others. Raised to know her place and to fulfill her duty, she does ALL the right things. Goes to the right parties. Wears the right clothes. Belongs to the right clubs. And even dates the right men. Or at least she thought she did. Until she is dumped. Hard. Over creme brûlée. And worse, she’s then invited so her former boyfriend’s wedding. On Christmas Eve. Jane is nothing if not ambitious and calculating. So she makes a plan to show up at the wedding and to show off her new beau. Except, she doesn’t *actually* have one. So where does one go when they’re looking for something? Why, Craigslist of course!
Enter Ian Brooks. He’s handsome and sweet, but trying to help his injured, out of work father pay the bills, while keeping tabs on his younger twin brothers. So he decides to hire himself out as a jack of all trades/date for all occasions in order to raise some extra money. His dates with Jane don’t exactly go as they both anticipated, though.
Do Christmas wishes come true? Can two people from completely different paths find not only common ground, but true love? You’ll have to read to find out. But know this, Laurelin + Kayti= sexytimes with witty barbs, which makes for one great holiday read!
