    About this audiobook

    A social experiment (a scary but exciting concept): marry a total stranger, live together for six months, and journal everything. Feelings. Fights. All of it.
    After six months, we each get $50,000 in exchange for our journals, whether we stay married or not. But the goal is to commit to the experience and see if the relationship experts could put together the perfect matches.
    I have never been lucky in love. This was my chance to find my soulmate. I couldn't wait to meet the man the experts felt was perfect for me. My hopes were immediately dashed when I saw him at the altar. I married my worst nightmare. Right?Contains mature themes.

      I love this story ❤️ ? better than the rest
    • 5/5
      Absolutely loved this one! One of my favorites. Their relationship blended so well.
    • 4/5
      I felt like the Heroine was a bit too clingy for my liking she seemed like someone who struggled to stand on her own. The h
      Hero was a bit volatile as well his moods changed quite constantly and he could be set off by the littlest of things. Apart from that they seemed like a good match and had potential for building a friendship as well as a successful relationship. Some parts were a bit too cheesy for my liking though ?
      It was a good story and the family dynamics especially on Talon's side were very heartwarming. I will certainly read other books ? by this author.
    • 3/5
      So far, this is the best of the series imo. The first three were hard to get through. I liked the concept of this one. But so far this authors writing has been underwhelming.
    • 5/5
      Excellent narration adds to a very enjoyable listen. Although falling into the all to common and predictable romance
      then break up (based on wrong assumptions)
      then back into romance and a HEA ending, it was easy read.

      Second read - November 2022Not exactly sure why I read this one again, I guess I was in the mood for a rockstar story and found scrolling through my Kindle. I liked the idea of the arranged marriage that was not a reality tv show scenario. I liked both characters. Talon is one of those sweet under the tatoos and rockstar persona types and Asia is a tough girl who has lived through a lot. I liked how Asia makes Talon wait on the physical aspect of their relationship. I like how the story plays out and it feels authentic. What I didn't really like and remembered pretty soon as I got into reading, is the way the author writes the dialogue. She uses words like gonna, shoulda, coulda, wanna, etc. and it drove me nuts even worse than the over use of the F word. If it weren't for that, I probably would have given it one more star.
    • 4/5
      Entertaining

      Found Talon a lovely read the first half of it was very entertaining talon's comments were outrageously funny and Asia was such a sweetheart found the second half strangely upsetting really wanted to give Talon a serious clout to wake him up heartbroken for Asia so happy when they managed to work it out.this was a really engaging read.
