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!

My Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Penny Pollack and Jax Hawthorne, old childhood friends, see each other agin after years, and its a surprise to both of them. They can still feel that old bond they once shared. Penny has always been the sensible one, safe, she's not a risk taker. With Jax appearing back in her life, and offering her a proposition. Penny has to decided if she can let go and take a chance, a risk. Jax has offered her a trip to the English countryside, while he is on location for his newest movie. While pretending to be his girlfriend. Jax is a playboy, and with his reputation, and making headlines, Jax needs to reset his image, needs to look good, if he wants to land his dream role, and he hopes with Penny by his side that will happen.
Jax wants to be taken seriously, he's more than what the magazines print. Penny is a woman who wants to break out from everyone seeing her as sensible, and find love. Penny is all for pretending with Jax, for the world to see, but how much is pretend. Penny is fighting the connection between her and Jax, she cant tell what is real or pretend anymore, and her growing feelings may complicate everything. Can Jax feel for Penny the way she feels for him, when he doesn't believe in love. He saw what it did to his parents.
Jax will have to get past his fear and embrace his feelings for penny. Before he loses her.
Heartthrob was sweet, romantic and funny. Jax and Penny were so fun to read. I really loved the banter between them. They come from two different worlds, but when they are together, none of that matters. A great romantic comedy!
