Loved this one, easy to follow when doing dishes (or other household necessities) but also nuanced enough to not feel contrived or boring. Main couple is lovely and I couldn’t help but root for them. A little bit of love at first sight, which normally I don’t care for but this one is done well and the relationship development is continued past it. The way the story is developed is enjoyable. Everything felt fairly natural and flowed nicely. Text conversations were rough to listen to, but I think they’d be good in the print version.

When Cherry is sent by her coworkers to scope out the handsome man who’s appeared in their office building, she certainly isn’t expecting a Scandinavian prince (although, she only comes to know this later, and it’s a rude awakening).  Whip-smart and gorgeous, Cherry is a fat Black British woman with a tight-knit family and a dead-end job.  She immediately captures the attention of Ruben, a bisexual Dane scarred from childhood abuse and a recent betrayal-turned-scandal.  Fast forward to an alleyway tryst broken up by paparazzi, and Cherry finds herself in a fake engagement with a non-disclosure agreement.  This whirlwind romance has an enemies-to-lovers, forced-proximity feel and features light domination play—these faux fiancés have to fall in love and save the day somehow!  The audiobook is a lot of fun with accents galore.
