Tempting Lies (Tempt Me Series Book 4) by Sara Whitney
Blurb:
After her widowed mother rushed into a marriage they both regretted, Thea Blackwell vowed never to commit to anything. Not jobs. Not hairstyles. Not men. Still, part of her wishes she had enough money—and enough courage—to buy her dream home and have it renovated by the gorgeous former neighbor who never spared her a second glance.
Aiden Murdoch put his playboy ways behind him to help his ailing father run the family business, but he can't seem to escape his scandalous past. Then his childhood friend Thea shows him the listing for a tumbledown fixer-upper, and he stumbles on the perfect solution: he'll provide the labor on her new house, and she'll make him look happily domesticated in front of his father’s nervous clients.
But fake kisses can lead to real feelings, and their simple arrangement gets complicated fast, leaving Thea unsure if her pretend fiancé has truly given up his wild ways and Aiden aching to prove he’s worth a lifelong commitment. Are they brave enough to tear down the lies they’ve told each other, or will the future they’re building turn to sawdust?
My Review:
Sara Whitney is a new-to-me author that I will definitely need to binge the backlist of. I easily got into the story, which kept a nice fast pace and gave me vibes of other contemporary romance novels I love.
Tempting Lies is a fake-dating novel which I love, because you know the characters are perfect for each other and that they'll end up together in the end but watching them try to deny their feelings along the way makes it all the more fun. I also love the small town setting, that's something I've really enjoyed reading lately so it hit the spot.
Aiden and Thea have such great chemistry despite having hesitations about commitment and this book gives you all the feels.
