BLURB:
One ring plus one wild night equals one crazy love
Sherry Robicheaux loves men. She loves love. And she loves an adventure. So when she meets a mysterious man while working backstage at a country music concert in Vegas, she’s all about what’s happened in Vegas staying there.
Country music superstar Tyler Blue just wants a weekend of anonymity…though there’s something about the spunky waitress with the streaks of purple hair that tempts him like no other. Until the next morning, when they both wake up with fuzzy memories…and rings on their fingers.
Convincing Sherry to maintain the ruse for his public image isn’t the hardest part—it’s reminding himself that their time spent playing husband and wife in her small town of Magnolia Springs can’t last. Tyler’s first love will always be music—and the road is no place for a sweet downhome girl.
A Fun And Sassy Romance Full Of Heart
REVIEW:
The story:
Sherry, the spunky lady full of life, doesn't have the best track record in the romance department. Tired of being burnt by men, she decides that what she needs is a Mr Boring; a man who might be boring, but won't break her heart. But before she settles for Mr Boring, she wants one last crazy weekend in Las Vegas, where she's helping cater an event for one of the hottest bands around, Blue. With no interest in Blue's musical talents Sherry has no plans on picking up any arrogant band members, and has her sights set on a sexy roadie she meets instead.
After a crazy night out with him, she wakes up with one hell of a hang over…and a wedding ring! Realising she's just married her one night stand, she soon finds out that her new husband is none other than Tyler Blue - famous lead singer of the band. With paparazzi asking them questions, they decide it's best for both their reputations to stay married and pretend their relationship is legit. The plan seems like a good idea at the time, but how long until this pretend romance starts to feel all too real?
The characters:
Sherry is such a fun loving carefree character. She's not afraid to be herself and be a little crazy. But she's also been hurt a lot and that has taken it's toll on her. She desperately want's to find someone who will love and cherish her and most importantly respect her.
And that is exactly what Tyler Blue does. He respects her and the boundaries she sets on their fake relationship, never pushing or pressuring her for something she's not ready for. He is a true family guy, who is kind and considerate and I just have so much love her him. Oh, and he can sing and play guitar like nobody's business *swoon*
The romance:
The romance between Sherry & Tyler may not be conventional, but that didn't make it any less real. Often with accidental marriages & quick romances, the connection between the characters feels forced. But Sherry & Tyler spend plenty on time just getting to know on another and as their friendship grows, so does their attraction and eventually a romantic connection.
The writing:
I'm a huge fan of Rachel Harris…seriously HUGE! I've loved both her YA & adult titles and will auto buy any future books too. Her characters are always vibrant and the dialogue can make me laugh, cry and swoon - sometimes all at once!
