From the author of Under Your Spell comes a funny, cosy small-town romance about an accidental Vegas marriage, two people forced to fake a relationship and a town determined to play matchmaker. Perfect for fans of Laurie Gilmore, Sarah Adams and Lynn Painter.

What happens in Vegas, never stays in Vegas . . .

Waking up in a Las Vegas hotel room with her brother’s best friend isn’t exactly rule-follower Ophelia ‘Lee’ Turner-Jones’ finest moment. She’s spent the past year trying to forget it ever happened, until a surprise email from a wedding chapel lands in her inbox. Now Lee has no choice but to track Nico down . . . and tell him they’re married.

The last place she expects to find the man who has always lived on the wild side is a small Maine town full of lovable eccentrics. Breaking the news to him should be simple, but walking away proves impossible when she discovers that Nico needs a wife to save everything – and everyone – he holds dear.

Agreeing to play the role of happily married couple is risky enough. Doing it with the man she’s secretly loved for years, while the whole town throws themselves into the charade, might just end in disaster. Still, Lee can't help but wonder if their fake relationship could finally be the start of something real.

Liked the story, it’s a continuation of a previous book by this author. The female narrator is good, but Nico is narrated by someone who really doesn’t suit the book and that really ruined it for me!

Good story, poor male narration

A lovely story that you can kind of guess what's going to happen, but it doesn't spoil the tale unwinding.

However I really struggled with the male narration. There was no romance in his voice, he made Nico into an unappealing character, very matter of fact.

I absolutely loved this book. The characters, the setting, the story were perfect. I’m glad I have the book to read though, as I was listening to this in the car after already having read the book, and the male narrator for Nico was not good to listen to, I’m afraid. I found his tone and voice did not fit the character well. Loved the female narrator but the book does switch between the two every couple of chapters, and I would turn it off when he was narrating, and go back and read his chapters myself. I’m really sorry to have to mark it down, because the story is wonderful.

A perfect romcom
