New Release and Review: Faking Ms. Right by Claire Kingsley

Title: Faking Ms. Right

Author: Claire Kingsley

Genre: Contemporary Rom/Com

Release Date: May 28, 2019

“When I kissed you last night, I wasn’t pretending.”

Everly Dalton is a walking, talking, martini-drinking dating disaster. Forget kissing frogs. She can’t even get past the first date. But at work, she’s a badass—the longest-running assistant billionaire Shepherd Calloway has ever had. Her coworkers wonder how she handles the big bad wolf—and never gets bit.

Shepherd Calloway isn’t interested in being anyone’s sugar daddy. Tired of women who only want him for his money, he swears off dating, determined to focus on running his empire. Until his gold-digging ex hits him where it hurts, putting him in a difficult position.

His solution—to have Everly pose as his live-in girlfriend—is obviously crazy. But the timing is uncanny. It just so happens Everly needs a favor from her boss—a big and awkward one—and this could ensure everyone gets what they want.

Besides, Everly can totally survive a few months of faux romance.

Except there’s a problem. Shepherd is supposed to be a single-minded, unemotional robot boss. Not an actual human with a heart and morning wood. Between the awkward bed-sharing and tingly fake dates, lines are blurring. And as Everly gets to know the real Shepherd, she discovers there’s more to the man behind the bank account.

And faking it gets all too real.

Review:

This is a new complete standalone romantic comedy. This was such a fun, quick read. When you combine a sunny Everly with her grumpy boss Shepherd, add in a fake relationship-turned-engagement and a cast of supporting characters that are funny and supportive, you get a charming and delightful read. Not only are there some laugh-out-loud moments, but there are some very sexy, steamy times also. The chemistry between these characters is electric. The side characters are intriguing and I hope we get to read their stories at some point. I also really enjoyed the path this story took in many aspects. Not only the path of the main characters but the hints of potential future stories. Both Everly and Shepherd showed such touching vulnerability as well as incredible strength as the story progressed. If you are looking for a quick, fun read then definitely get this book.
