About this listen
Matthew Flanagan is the mud, literally. Not only has he been fired from his job, but also the tires of his car are stuck in the muck after taking a wrong turn as he enters Green Oak, North Carolina. So, he grabs a duffel with his essentials and goes in search of a place to crash until he gets his life back on track. But instead, he finds his best friend’s sister, Josie, greeting him as her fiancé.
What starts as a big messy misunderstanding quickly turns into an arrangement with Matthew playing a new role as doting fiancé. A fifth engagement––and a stunt, at that––makes Josie’s stomach turn, but every dilemma requires a choice between equally undesirable alternatives, and Matthew doesn’t seem to mind becoming one more number in a colourful list of grooms-that-never-were. Despite the ring on her finger, Josie knows this is only temporary, even if the rest of the small town believes that the fifth time’s the charm.©2024 Elena Armas (P)2024 Simon & Schuster, UK
Editorial Review
Favorite summertime listen
As a longtime Elena Armas fan, I have been waiting for
The Fiancé Dilemma since I finished listening to the beautiful HEA from
The Long Game and found out there was more coming in the series. The story, which can be listened to as a standalone, follows Josie, who after four engagements has sworn off men, and Matthew, who is having one hell of a bad day. When a mix-up leaves the two announcing their fake engagement, both play along—agreeing that no matter what, they won’t end up married. As their chemistry becomes more undeniable, and the lines begin to blur, both Josie and Matthew find that the promise won’t be so easy to keep. From the cameos from my
Long Game favorites to the alluring performances by beloved narrators Brittany Pressley and Zachary Webber, I adored everything about this story and will be recommending it for the entire summer, and beyond. — Patty R., Audible Editor
Gutted we didn't Matthew's POV... it wasn't until the very last chapter we see how he's feeling / thinking. Dual POV is just superior.
I don't know if it was the narrator, but Josie was TOO much sunshine... but to see her and Ada's sisterly relationship evolve was beautiful.
I knew this would be fake dating / engagement, but I didn't think it was going to be like THAT! I mean they very nearly got hitched !! I thought it would go from dating to engaged, but no! I was surprised.
