He’d flash his killer smile at my
colleagues.
Impress them with his charm.
While keeping my toxic ex at bay.
But that’s not the reality I’m currently drowning in.
From the moment we arrive at the resort
Rome’s hands are all over me.
His whispered words in my ear more
scandalously filthy than sweet.
He’s acting like a lust-drunk fool who’s dying for a taste and I can’t stop blushing… Or panicking… Because there’s only one bed in our hotel room and Rome Cavanaugh wouldn’t know how to sleep in anything other than his birthday suit.

His
palms slide farther around my hips, slowly creeping lower toward my backside.
I stare
him down. My narrowed eyes to his cocky smirk. The warmth from the liquor works
against me when paired with the sinful burn of his touch. I overheat, the pool
of my belly volcanic.
“I’m
immune to your proximity, too.” I lie.
“Impressive.”
He cups my ass and roughly drags me closer
I gasp,
my hands raising to press against his chest for stability.
“I love
that sound,” he murmurs. “Scandalizing you does funny things to me.”
My
heart bolts, the pained organ beating a frantic rhythm. “I’m not scandalized.”
My breathy voice says otherwise. “I just didn’t expect you to manhandle me.”
“Are
you sure?” he purrs.
I won’t
react. I refuse.
“Then
what would it take to scandalize you, little Pip?”
Playing Pretend by Eden SummersMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Fabulous best friends to lovers romance. Piper and Rome have known each other for years and share everything about their lives with each other. The one thing they’ve never shared is their true feelings that are more than friendship. When Piper dreads attending a company trip because of an ex, Rome volunteers to be her fake boyfriend as her personal buffer. What Piper doesn’t know is that Rome is going to finally act on what he’s been hiding for years, that he loves her. For Piper, she isn’t comfortable with casual flings and can’t imagine that Rome, the player, would want something long-term with her. As she works to protect her heart, Rome pulls out all the stops to win her over. What a wonderful couple with excellent chemistry that gave me a great escape. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
