Billionaire businessman in need of a fake fiancée...

It should be the easiest job ever for an out-of-work actress, right?

All I have to do is pose as Grant Caldwell (the Third)’s fiancée for a fancy-pants weekend in the Hamptons. Easy. Wear designer clothing and sip champagne? Don’t mind if I do. Flirting with Grant? It’s so delicious I should be paying him.

Nothing can go wrong as long as I can keep my hands off of him.

But that’s the hard part. And I do mean hard.

Because Grant is sexy. And bossy. And surprisingly sweet, a real rarity in his pretentious family.

Oops. I’m not as good at faking it as I thought. Or maybe they call this method acting. Because it’s getting harder to figure out where my character ends and I begin....

It just might be the role of a lifetime.

Weekend Wife is a stand-alone romantic comedy with a sexy billionaire, a sassy heroine, and a happily ever after.

I haven’t read many books by Erin McCarthy, but after reading this one I would definitely be open to checking out more. I found myself liking both main characters. Leah and Grant were very different. She was a waitress, and he was a billionaire. She had a happy childhood with loving parents, he was raised by the nanny. What brought them together was a once-a-week breakfast at the diner she works at. One day a crazy chain of events leads them to changing their relationship from waitress/diner to lovers. And things just keep changing and developing from there. I liked that the progression of their relationship is clear and makes sense. It flows really well and was highly entertaining. I think their feelings may have escalated quickly, but it didn’t come from nowhere. There were talks, conversations, questionnaires even that helped them get to know each other. There just also happened to be a contract that hurt a lot more than it helped anything. But overall, it was a good story and was really well narrated. I loved the energy that the female narrator brought to the character. Leah was very animated from the way she was written by the author, I was happy to hear the narrator bring that same energy. I liked the male narrator, Gavin McAllister, as well, definitely no complaints, he just didn’t quite stand out as perfect for his character the way that Laura English (a new to me narrator) was perfect for her character Leah.

Absolutely loved this book Grant and Leah are great characters that once they talk it out are relationship goals. The chemistry between these characters was palpable from the beginning. The Caldwell family is absolutely crazy and funny. This book is a definite recommend.

I had read the ebook version of the story about 2 years ago, and I liked it, but the audiobook version was so much more fun. The story itself combines fake relationship and billionaire tropes, along with some witty writing and likable main characters (especially compared to most of Grant’s family).

The audiobook is performed by Laura English and Gavin McAllister, both new-to-me narrators, and they did an amazing job. I would definitely listen to more by the author and/or narrators in the future.

5 stars for the audiobook!
