This book was surprising to say the least but you can tell their chemistry set the pages on fire in this read. It was easy to read, fast paced, and more than anything else, is suspenseful as you wonder how this is gonna play out for the two characters. I enjoyed how their preconceived notions couldn't stand in the way of how attracted they were to one another. This book was a great read!

Fake Fiance by Amy McKinley is from the Second Chance Office Romance Series. This is a fun, enjoyable read. The story follows Adeline Rossi has started her dream job working for a business magnate, Stone Crenshaw. I really enjoyed the character of Adeline and was rooting for her with all the changes she was experiencing in her life. She is brave and interesting. I didn't like Stone at first but he wore me down once he showed his non-business side. This is a getaway romance and I was excited to read another by Amy McKinley. Her books are always a great getaway. I always look forward to reading books from her and look forward to reading more of her books in the future.

Fake Fiancé by Amy McKinley is my first book by this author and if her other books are anything like this one, I need to read more. This short office romance novella read like a full novel. I couldn’t believe that Amy gives you everything in such a small amount of pages. Adeline and Stone were great characters that I want more from them. Their chemistry was there from the beginning and I was intrigued to see that it took them that long to come together.

Fake Fiancé – A Second Chance office Romance
By Amy McKinley
5 stars
I really love this author; I have read so many of her books and think she is such a versatile writer. I am always swept up into her books as soon as I start them and Fake Fiancé was no exception. I’m a bit of a sucker for the second chance romance stories, I always find myself rooting for the characters the whole way through, so I guessed that along with the amazing author and this trope I was in for a good read. I LOVED Adeline and Stone! Oh my gosh what a couple! They attraction, the chemistry – just everything about them was amazing! Their relationship wasn’t straight forward but I just absolutely loved reading about them. I love the story was as predictable as I thought it would be. It was a fantastic 5 star read and I would definitely recommend it to other readers!

This isn’t what I expected when I grabbed this one. A simple office romance that takes place in Italy. Well that does happen with the additive of a few odd things. At first I was confused when these visions were happening. Maybe something stating the character was dreaming or having a vision in some way. As the story progresses it becomes more intriguing on how things were going to end.
The characters were fun to watch. Especially Adeline. She is a Savvy business woman. I was impressed with her at her job. She is firm and a complete opposite when not working. The book is worth read just to feel her fierceness when dealing with employees. Pretty sure she is my favorite.
Overall this is a good read. At time the flow is a bit choppy but it all smooths out nicely in the end. The characters are some nice growth and how they interpret their visions was a delight.

This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites. I enjoy her writing skills and her attention to details make you feel as if you are part of the story. This book is no different. This is a romance story that I found hard to put down. It is engaging and easy to read. I was pulled in from the beginning by the characters. Adeline has her dream job all set up in Italy, the city of love. Once she gets there, the city of love isn’t what she expected. She now finds herself playing the role of fiance to her boss, Stone. Now they are faced with keeping their relationship business or crossing a professional line. Will they cross that line and give in to the attraction? I enjoyed watching their relationship grow throughout the story. Their chemistry is off the charts and I found myself hoping they would cross that line and find a HEA they so deserved. I enjoyed their characters, they really made the story for me. I highly recommend this book.

I really enjoyed this book. Adeline is such a strong and independent woman. I loved her career drive to succeed. Definitely has a head on her shoulders and doesn't take any guff. The way the story incorporates the past and present is very intriguing. The author Amy McKinley has a way of making you want to travel to Italy with your love and enjoy the opulence of the country.

Fake Fiancé: A Second Chance Office Romance is another superb read from Amy McKinley. I know I have said this before, but I really do love Ms. McKinley’s books, she never fails to draw me into her stories, getting me completely invested in her wonderful characters and the outcome of their story. Ms. McKinley is a one-click, no questions asked author for me. I don’t need to know anything about her book to know that I will love it- and this book proves that point yet again.
I loved Adeline and Stone- their chemistry was intense and palpable. But if that alone isn’t enough to entice you, the story was cleverly woven with interesting elements that had me captivated the whole way through. Add a little mysteriousness, some touching & tender moments, emotion, a little drama, lots of spice- and an extra helping of destiny- and this story became un-put-downable.
Another feather for Ms. McKinley’s cap, that’s for sure!
Thank you, Amy McKinley!

Fake Fiance is a fantastic office romance by Amy McKinley. It was previously published in the Sinful Secrets (A Contemporary Romance Box Set). I have been a huge fan of Amy McKinley’s writing for a long time so it’s always great to get lost in her writing again.
Adeline has her dream job lined up in Italy but what she doesn’t expect is that within days of starting her new job she’s playing the role of fake fiancé to her hot but very grumpy boss, Stone, so that he can convince a possible seller that he’s a respectable family man.
What results is a great story that I was engrossed in and read in one sitting as I didn’t want to put it down. Adeline and Stone’s story is a great read. Both are great characters that I totally fell in love with. The more you get to know Stone you get to see a different side to the ruthless, cold, arrogant businessman and he’s actually a very nice guy down deep inside.
The story is very well written and flows well and kept me engrossed throughout. One thing I loved was the setting of the book. You are treated to detailed description of beautiful setting in Italy and it makes me want to visit there and see it all for myself.
All in all this is a great book that I’d definitely recommend to others to read.
