About the Book
Move over, Colin Firth - there’s a new Darcy in town!
Jax Hawthorne is Hollywood’s sexiest bad boy. I’m a
glorified secretary who thinks color-coding my library is a wild Friday night.
So when he shows up after all this time wanting to make good on our childhood
deal to tie the knot, it’s not because he can’t resist my perfect credit score.
He needs a fake girlfriend to rehab his reckless image, and
I’m the (safe, sensible) girl for the job. I would be insulted… if the proposal
didn’t come with an all-expenses-paid trip to England while he shoots a new
movie version of ’Pride & Prejudice.’
Goodbye, my dumpster fire of a dating life. Hello, steamy
nights with a chiseled hunk who knows all the right moves.
Soon, I’m knee-deep in the English mud - and on-set drama.
But all our fake-smoldering is getting my very real panties in a twist. It turns
out, Jax is so much more than just a reckless playboy. He makes me want to
forget our ‘arrangement’.. and break all the rules.
Can our pretend romance turn to something real? Or will
scheming actresses, control-freak PR crews, and a pesky little thing called
love ruin the best (fake) relationship of my life?
Find out in the hot, hilarious new romance from Katie McCoy!

Addicted 2 Romance Review
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book
This is my first book by this author and I LOVED it! It was sorta like taking a vacation in England and I loved Jax and Penny so much. This appears to be #3 in a series, I felt it easily stands alone as I have never any of the other books in the series.
Penny and Jax met when they were 12 years old. They were summer vacation friends even though Jax came from a wealthy family and Penny a poor one. Penny's parents were happily married and Jax's a nightmare, so at 12 Jax proposed because friendship sounded better than love to him for a marriage.
The two kids don't see each other until they run into the other at a bar one night. Penny is now in Finance and Jax is a hot movie star. Penny thinks he won't recognize her and he totally does. And they fall into lust.Meanwhile Jax wants this cool movie part but he is told he needs a more wholesome image and thats where he gets the brilliant idea to get a girlfriend named Penny and take her to England with him. Well Penny is more serious person and takes alot of convincing.
I loved going on this adventure with Penny and Jax. They both are sweet and fun characters and I loved seeing England thru their eyes. I also loved their friendship and watching them slowly fall for the other. There were some great side characters like Emmy and prince Charlie. While this is called a comedy romance, I didnt laugh a lot but I did really enjoy this fun story.
