I enjoyed this short story. It had relateable characters, an interesting storyline, some heat and some drama. I wished however that the intimate scenes were more involved. While reading them, it felt a little furtive and rushed as if the author didn’t want to delve any further than the basics.

What a great story!
The characters are well written. You’re rooting for them to get together.
It’s funny, steamy and a wonderful escape.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an arc in exchange for my honest review.

I randomly selected The Chauffeur Wore An Evening Gown based on the book blurb and I'm so glad I did. This was a fun, witty quick read with likable main characters and just enough angst to keep things interesting. This definitely won't be the last Roni Adams book I read. Thanks #NetGally

The Chauffeur Wore An Evening Gown is a short and sweet romance with little drama, except the Irish family and temper kind, and a lot of steam.

When Erin O'Malley agrees sub for her brother’s limo service and drive a VIP big wig to the Governor's Ball, she has no clue what a wild ride she was really agreeing to. Josh Stone was having a great night. On his way to the Governor's Ball to receive a major award, he gets dumped by his fiance. In an effort to not show up empty-armed to the event he had personally told the governor he'd bring his fiance to, he strong-arms his chauffeur into pretending to be his fiance.

I love discovering new authors and books that may have few readers and getting in on the ground floor. The cover could honestly use some work, but... *shrug*. I loved the O'Malley family with their multiple successful businesses and everyone filling in for everyone else across them all. It's great.

Erin was a bit of a typical Irish princess with a fiery demeanor and over-protective brothers. Josh was supposed to be an alpha, hot, millionaire but he just came across as a decent, typical business owner to me. These two had a bunch of steam and decent chemistry between them. I wish we had a bit more build of the relationship but for a quickie, short story, we got about what's typical.

I will be excited to read more from the author in the future.

I really enjoyed this book; it brought me so many smiles and laughs. It was a quick read and the characters are well developed. JR is a straight forward hero, and knows exactly what he wants, Erin. She lets the what ifs stand in her way but when she finally lets her hair down then magic happens. This was a very enjoyable book and I can't wait to read more by Roni Adams.

Cute, quick, fun read with good main characters. Erin is a down to earth person. JR is business like. They are definitely opposites, but when Erin is the substitute limo driver taking JR to an important presentation and his fiancée pretty much ditches him, she, reluctantly, stands in for her. Erin surprises JR by smoothly fitting in the role. Thus begins the journey of relationships. Is it smooth? What do you think? To find out be sure to read this book/author. This was the first book by this author that I had read, but it won’t be the last!

Thank you NetGalley, The Wild Rose Press, INC. and Roni Adams for gifting me a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review!
If you’re in the mood for a quick and steamy read, this is it! A hot, alpha businessman and an independent, fiery woman have one night of hot chemistry and suddenly they can’t stay away from each other.
You can guess from the title/cover that this isn’t going to be the best written book you’ve ever read. There are some cheesy moments and the entire premise of the book is a common cliche, but it works. The chemistry between the characters is clear and saucy. I think if the author had put in just a little more before the night we met and built up their relationship a little longer, I would’ve really loved this. Instant love just isn’t my thing, but the plot is great!

A big thank you to NetGalley and Wild Rose Press for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. First time reading this author. This was a quick, fun read. The characters were likeable, the premise was a little out there but fun. Communication is important for relationships. Erin and Josh made a cute couple. 3.5 stars

It’s a quick fun story and it could’ve been written so poorly. Thankfully the characters were likable, the premise easy to understand and an overall enjoyable read. First time I’ve ever encountered this author and she did a great job. 3.5 stars.

What a fun read! I knew this would be unique when I read the summary and it was a joy to read. Erin O’Malley drives a limo for her brother’s company and fills in for her client when his date stands him up. JR Stone was to receive an award at the governor’s mansion when his fiancée refused to attend, so he asked his limo driver to fill in. Erin is jeans and t-shirts and JR is business suits and meetings. Can these two find a way to make a relationship work? Great writing with hot romance and two strong characters who fall hard and fast. I had not read anything by this author but plan on checking out her other books. I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation for an honest review. (by paytonpuppy)
