Faking It is a duo of Mills & Boon Modern novels. Fast Track Fiancé by Amanda Cinelli and Billion - Dating Game by Natalie Anderson combine to make this a sizzling late summer read!!
I’m not particularly interested in Formula 1 racing but as this provides the back drop and shapes the storyline to Fast Track Fiancé I decided to overlook this. Nina Roux is a heiress and reserve driver for the Falco Roux Team. She had assumed she was about to be promoted after a disastrous race in Monte Carlo but instead legendary driver Apollo Accardi arrives back after a six year absence. So she is still benched from Falco Roux’s F1 driving team. Tristan Falco, the owner/ playboy of the team is caught on camera arguing with her. To try and calm the media storm he agrees that if they maintain a paddock romance for the season and she pretends to be his fiancé she can have a seat in the team. All is fine until the fake feelings become very real!!
An enjoyable read full of chemistry and sparks between the two main characters. I liked that Nina was so determined to get her place on the team and not just stay as the reserve driver.
Billion-Dollar Dating Game by Natalie Anderson is the first in the three part mini series Billion-Dollar Bets. The three main men, Zane, Adam and Cade are best friends and billionaires. All three have a reputation as one date wonders but excellent businessmen. All three, each for their own reason, want to purchase Helberg Holdings as Reed, the owner, died several months ago. Zane puts down a bet that if they can date one women between independence and Labour Day he will take all the shares that they have accumulated and have a free run at taking over Helberg Holdings. All three men agree.
Zane de Marco and Skylar Bennet grew up on the same estate. Neither had a happy childhood. She lived with her strict father, him with his mother. Zane slowly built his empire and Skylar is now an employee. After a night together he persuades her to have a fake relationship so he can win the bet and take over the business that destroyed his childhood. He/ they didn’t take into account that their fake relationship would develop into a true romance, but will their flaws and stubborn characters prevent their romance from being their HEA?
Full of passion and pent up emotions that can be traced back to childhood, both characters are clearly flawed but likeable. The reader can root for them and hope they get it together so their relationship survives because they are relatable characters that most readers can empathise with.
An excellent duo and I would recommend this novel as both books are rereadable and full of spice.
I received this book via Netgalley and Mills and Boon in exchange for a honest review. I am a #MillsAndBoonInsider #netgalley #gifted
