Summary

I need a wife. NOW.

With this hockey season on the line, I can’t afford any distractions. And a dating reality show is one huge distraction. But there's a surefire way to get out of this dating show contract. All I have to do is get married.

Even with a reputation like mine–the Scottish bad boy of hockey–I'm confident I can find someone to play Mrs. Taylor Savage for a year.

Like Becca Barnes. The one who got away. Too bad she hates me. But that's why she’s perfect for this arrangement.

My contract is dissolved. She gets the bakery of her dreams.

Win-Win.

She just has to live with me and pretend she loves me in public for a year. No strings. No touching (unless there’s a camera). No messy heartbreak.

It’s sure to be a challenge because with the way I crave her, keeping my hands to myself might be harder than I planned.

But I can handle this. Being married to her will be easy. As long as I don't fall in love with her along the way.

Brilliant

Kim Loraine is a one-click author for me, and this book just shows why. It is fun and sweet and steamy. It grabs your attention from the start and keeps you enthralled until the last page.

I loved this story. I loved the execution. I loved the characters—okay, there were some I wanted to sucker punch! Everything about it filled my heart with happiness. It was just what I needed.

Shane East and Stella Hunter perform this book in duet, with J.F. Harding popping in every now and then. Shane has really improved his Scottish accent and it shows in this book. It was a joy to listen to him. J.F. Harding was great and put a smile on my face hearing some familiar characters from previous books. Stella Hunter is stellar! I just love her voice and the way she performs all the different characters. Together, these narrators made this a fantastic listen. The production was brilliant with no issues.

Hat Trick of Love, Comedy & Steam

There's no denying that I adore everything Kim Loraine writes as they keep me turning each page. This time was no different as the storyline is a hat trick of love, comedy & steam in THE MARRIAGE ARRANGEMENT.

Becca & Taylor are part of the larger Ryker Ranch family, but you don't have to read all of those to understand the plot in this stand alone read. With that said, there are cameos from our favorite cowboys and the other hockey players from books 1 and 2 in the ANYTHING FOR LOVE series. I think that's my addiction to series romance, being able to see former characters show up is like catching up with old friends.

I was lucky enough to do the alpha read of the text, then get the early listen on audio, and the gift that keeps on giving is Kim writes for her audio fans! What a surprise to hear not only Shane East bring on his Scottish accent, Stella Hunter be her sassy-adorbs-self, but we also get J.F. Harding in his reprise role of Mav Wilde and maaaaaaaybeeee another character or two. Gotta listen to find out!

5 STARS all around for a story that gives us another swoony as all get out hero, a feisty heroine, and an adventure that brings the heat on and off the ice.

I couldn’t stop listening.

The story is cute, well written, and entertaining. I will be listening to the rest of the series and I do hope they live up to this one

3.5 Stars

This was a fun story, and it was local to where I grew up, so it was fun to see recognizable places. I was a bit lost at the beginning, as it picked up midstory, then went back in time. I don't think that was needed, it wool have worked perfectly well as a linear timeline. The banter was fun, and though it was clearly within a series of standalones, I didn't feel like I was missing anything by not having read the previous books. This was an audiobook listen for me, and it was very well done, making the experience more enjoyable than if I had only read it.

Hook & Tink

I LOVED THIS BOOK! Okay I have listened to many of Shane East’s narrated books and i love him and Stella Hunt in Never King series and i loved them in this book! They have amazing chemistry. They did a phenomenal job on this one! This book is hilarious and spot lights in my opinion all our fears we’ve had in the dating world and truly i could relate to the characters. Totally worth the credit! 10/10

One of my favorites!

I absolutely loved Becca and Taylor's story. This book was perfect! It had lots of humor, it was steamy and it just kept you wanting to know what was gonna happen between these two. They were super adorable, especially when Becca finally lets her guard down around Taylor and just let him in and realizes he's a good guy. I could not get enough of them and this was probably one of my favorite books of the series.
The narration between Stella Hunter and Shane East was perfect as usual. They just work so well together and play off of each other so well and it just makes the book even more enjoyable.
