Faking Ms. Right by Claire Kingsley

Synopsis

"When I kissed you last night, I wasn't pretending."

Everly Dalton is a walking, talking, martini-drinking dating disaster. Forget kissing frogs. She can't even get past the first date. But at work, she's a badass - the longest running assistant billionaire Shepard Calloway has ever had. Her coworkers wonder how she handles the big bad wolf - and never gets bit.

Shepard Calloway isn't interested in being anyone's sugar daddy. Tired of women who only want him for his money, he swears off dating, determined to focus on running his empire. Until his gold-digging ex hits him where it hurts, putting him in a difficult position. 

His solution - to have Everly pose as his live-in girlfriend - is obviously crazy. But timing is uncanny. It just so happens Everly needs a favor from her boss - a big awkward one - and this could ensure everyone gets what they want. 

Besides, Everly can totally survive a few months of faux romance.

Except there's a problem. Shepard is supposed to be a single-minded, unemotional robot boss. Not an actual human with a heart and morning wood. Between the awkward bed-sharing and tingly fake dates, lines are blurring. And as Everly gets to know the real Shepard, she discovers there's more to the man behind the bank account. 

And faking it gets all too real.

Wanna know the story about how I found this book? My good friend Kayleigh ( @abookloversplaylist )

text me one day and was like....

Kayleigh : "Oh my god, guess what I have the best news."

Claudia : "Tell me, Tell me, TELL ME!!!"

Kayleigh : "Claire Kingsley agreed to do a Instagram LIVE interview with me!!!!"

Claudia : "OMG, how exciting! I've never read anything by her. What should I read of hers before your interview?"

Kayleigh : "FAKING MS. RIGHT is one of my FAVORITES of hers! Most definitely what you should read first."

So, naturally, I hopped on my Amazon and ordered the paperback. (I don't like to read E-Books.) Let's just say, a few weeks later when Kayleigh interviewed her, I fell in love with Claire and Kayleigh did such a great job interviewing her. You can actually still see it. She has it on her IGTV if you want to check it out. 

Anyways, it did take me a few weeks to read it, but once I did, I wondered why I didn't read it sooner!! I loved it! I have never really read romance books before, but after reading this one, I'm like....

"GIVE ME ALLLLL THE CLAIRE KINGSLEY BOOKS!!!"

Like for real, I couldn't put it down. I literally read it in a matter of hours. I don't think I've read a book in hours since I was a kid and I had nothing but time. Now, with a 50+ hour a week job, a husband, 4 kids and trying to manage working out, and reading and other things LIFE those at you, its hard, but this book was just that good. I kept just wanting more.   

MY RATING:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/ 5

I will definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants a great, sexy comedic romance. The characters literally made laugh out laugh and the sex scenes were AMAZING!!!  I am looking forward to reading more of Claire's books. I think I might read the "Book Boyfriends" series next, IDK. I did see that this book had a prequel and a another stand alone in the "series",  I guess you would say, where follows one of Everly's best friends and her quest for love. I'm not sure. Soo many to pick from. Which Claire Kingsley book will I read next?

Now, unfortunately , this usually is my favorite part of my post where I seek out some discussion questions related to the book, but I searched high and low and could not find any, so we aren't going to do them this time. It's ok, though. Read this book and we can discuss it later. I will ALWAYS want to talk about Everly and Shepard. 

Have read this book? What did you think of it? Did you love it as much as I did? Leave me a comment below.

Until next time..... ☮
