Someone to Love

Summary:  One month. One fake boyfriend. One shot at forever.

I’ve got four weeks to cross one thing off my bucket list—and it isn’t exactly PG.

I’m not the type to take risks, but when a friend battling cancer dares you to go big, you don’t say no. My mission? Lose my V-card before my baby sister’s wedding. Did I mention she’s marrying my high school crush? Yeah. There’s no way I’m walking into that ceremony as the awkward, untouched older sister.

Enter single dad Ian Barlowe—my sinfully hot, NFL legend neighbor, who owes me big time after his daughter breaks into my house. He offers to make amends by playing my fake boyfriend. How can I say no?

It should be easy enough—except nothing about Ian feels fake. The chemistry? Explosive. His unexpected sweetness? Heart-melting. And the way he seems to like me just as I am? Ruh, roh.

Here’s the thing—I don’t do vulnerability, and neither does he. But as the line between pretend and real starts to blur—especially in the bedroom—I wonder if happily-ever-after is a game we can win. I set out to score one for the bucket list, but now I’m playing for keeps. And if we’re not careful, I might lose my heart in the final play.

This small-town, single dad, standalone sports romance is perfect for readers of Jill Shalvis and Laura Pavlov. If you like your happily-ever-afters swoony, steamy, and filled with laugh-out-loud moments, one click now to fall in love with The Skylark Series.



One (or more) Sentence Summary:  I have never read a Michelle Major book and I can't wait to read another.  I LOVED IT!

Ingredients for an amazing book:
A small town in Colorado
Ian the single dad (ex-NFL player)
Riva the sassy daughter
Sadie the next-door neighbor in need of a date
Felix the NFL player and Ian's younger brother
Piper the bride-to-be and Sadie's younger sister
Bradley the groom-to-be and Sadie's ex
Great gal pal bookclub 

I thought Someone to Love was such a great story, that I wanted to keep reading and turning the next page even when life was calling for me to get moving.  Sometimes you just need to turn the next page and keep on reading!

Without giving away the book, I wanted to cheer when Sadie stood up to people that "push" her around in the past.  I loved watching her start to put her own happiness before others.  I can't wait for the second book in the Skylark Series.  In the meantime, I need to go read some of Michelle's other books like The California Girls series, Colorado Hearts series, Welcome to Starlight series, Crimson Colorado series, The Magnolia Sister Series, The Fortunes of Texas series, just to name a few.  So many options!

USA Today and Top 5 Amazon Bestselling author Michelle Major writes swoon-worthy stories full of heart, heat, and guaranteed happily-ever-afters. When she’s not dreaming up romance, you’ll find her hiking the trails (or avoiding housework) in her home state of Colorado.
