About this ebook

From friends to lovers…in four weeks?

Allison Taylor knew she was in over her head. What was she thinking, asking her Seattle neighbor Rowan Scott to be her fake boyfriend for the holidays? Now she’s trapped with the sexy dude-next-door under the same roof in Bronco, trying to keep her overbearing father at bay—and her long-hidden crush on her faux beau under the covers as long as possible. The surprise is on Rowan, though, when his favor for Allison forces him to confront his true feelings for her. His spontaneous “proposal”—to prove their love to her family—only makes things messier. But maybe the magic of a snowy Montana Christmas could lead them to a happy ending in spite of it all…

I always did love Harlequin Romances! It's the holidays and her father has decided that it's time for her to "settle down". Allison has kissed a lot of frogs so now she's not even looking. But when her controlling father steps in, yet again, what's a girl to do? Make up a fake boyfriend of course, and why not go for it and make him a doctor too. Rowan is her neighbor and he's house sitting while she's away. He informs her that his girlfriend has broken up with him. Again. And he's had enough. This time. He's a great guy and he's funny as well as good looking. How could his girlfriend do that to him at Christmas? She has an idea. She needs help because she is helping her pregnant sister take care of her house and three teenagers and he can come and stay with them for the holidays. Matter of fact, he can help her in a totally different way! It'll be easy, she already has a small crush on him and when it's over, he'll be going back to his "on-again, off-again" girlfriend. So when did h

Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive. Allison and Rowan were just so ridiculously cute together. I loved watching them realize that their “friendly” feelings for one another had been hiding much bigger, deeper, emotions. I adored the way Rowan stood up to Allison’s father in her defense, and the sweet way he was willing to take emotional risks to show her it was safe to do the same. It was the perfect ending for this pair, but I’m not ready to let them go

A lovely story set at Christmastime. Allison came home to Bronco Montana to help her heavily pregnant sister as Xmas approached whilst her neighbour & close friend Rowan in Seattle, is watering her plants. Hearing he is on his own on the holidays she invites him to Montana under the ruse of being her fake boyfriend. Soon realising that they’ve had feelings for each other all along. Fun times, great family, a pushy dad and an ex girlfriend in the background make for a really great read.
