This was such a fantastic book! I was pulled in from the very beginning with Abi's mistaken identity with Declan's parents.
I loved the feistiness of Abi and the stories that they both made up when people questioned their relationship. I laughed so much! There were so many swoony moments throughout this book filled with Pretty Woman vibes. I am obsessed!
I did feel at times that Declan was too over the top and Abi was too strong headed for her own good. The miscommunication trope is one I rarely enjoy but I am glad they could overcome it. They were perfect for each other. Overall, this was a fast, fun summer read!

This is the perfect book if you are in the mood for a fast-paced rom-com. There is fake dating, which is one of my favorite tropes. These two have great banter. The FMC was a little annoying at the end, but it did not stop me from loving this book. I love Lynn Painter's writing! Thanks to NetGalley and Berkley for an ARC of this book.

I will never not love a Lynn Painter book. Her writing flows perfectly and has me cackling and once I start a book by her I can’t put it down until it’s done.

The plot for Maid for Each Other might be a bit out there but I immediately bought into it and just enjoyed the ride.

I enjoyed every single second of this one!!

Lynn Painter's fast-paced quick witted writing style always sucks me into the story immediately. I enjoyed the banter between Declan and Abi, but didn't quite feel the love connection. The plotline was fun and the characters entertaining, but it just didn't have the same spark of attraction that her other books have. Still a great read though and I enjoyed listening to the audiobook.

3.5⭐️

this was the perfect rom-com, with such a charming premise. abi has several jobs in order to pay off her schooling, one of which is working as a house cleaner. she spends the night in this lux apartment and lands herself in a bit of a situation when she gets caught by the owner's parents downstairs... except the catch is they think she's their son's long-time girlfriend. at her other job, she gets cornered by the owner, declan, and strikes a bit of an interesting deal with him. turns out, he's made up this girlfriend (ironically named abby with a "y") to his parents and needs her to show up at this important event. so, abi agrees to be his fake-girlfriend but for a price - $4oK is on the line and it's too good to pass up, not to mention she gets to stay at his very fancy apartment for the remainder of the week.

while i thought this was very cute, it felt a little too fast for my liking. i understand being in close-proximity to someone can warrant growing feelings for somebody - but all in a week's time? i did find their chemistry together to be sweet and i liked that they weren't afraid to razz each other and just be a little silly.

thank you berkley romance for the ARC!

Thank you Berkley and PRH Audio for the ARC!

Lynn Painter has done it again with a super sweet rom-com featuring all my favorite tropes, fake dating, millionaire, grumpy x sunshine, strangers to lovers, and forced proximity. It gave me major Maid in Manhattan vibes, and I loved it! Abi, a cleaner, falls asleep in a penthouse she’s cleaning after her apartment is infested with bugs. The owner's parents find her, assume she's his girlfriend, and cue all the fun fake dating shenanigans that follow. This book was an absolute blast!

I reeeeally wanted to love this. Lynn Painter's YA books are some of my all time favorites and her earlier adult romcoms were so fun! but I've struggled with some of her more recent stuff. the premise of this was made for me, I love fake dating, I love enemies to lovers. but Declan's complete disdain for Abi and the way he treats her at the start of the book just made it so hard for me to root for them. don't get me wrong, this was an easy read that I think plenty of people will enjoy. but I struggled to get into them as a couple and even when they were together, I didn't feel any sparkle. there was just so much miscommunication and the angst was lackluster. I love Lynn Painter but this just wasn't for me.

Maid for Each Other is a must-read romcom!

Painter's latest adult romance is filled with her signature heart and humor. This billionaire x maid fake dating romance is full of the hilarious hijinx it promises. Perfect for people who love to laugh and lovers of HEAs.

I've enjoyed many books by this author (particularly her YA novels), but for some reason, this one wasn't a huge hit for me. There were still some very funny moments, and I generally enjoyed the characters, but I didn't feel quite as connected to them or the story as I did with some of her past books or other books in this genre.

The premise is fun, though! Abi "crashing" at Declan's apartment while cleaning it cracked me up. I absolutely enjoyed their meet cute, the family involvement, and the ending. There were some great NYC moments that were fun too! In general, I just got lost a bit with the way the story unfolded even though I will say it was a great distraction from a busy few weeks and I don't regret reading it - just not rushing to recommend it first!

What is your least favourite cleaning chore? I hate vacuuming which is why we have a doodle for a pet. Lol

Lynn Painter is the queen of fun escapist reads, and this one strikes again. With a lighthearted tone and lots of banter, this becomes a very quick read. At times, the lighthearted tone veered a little too far into ridiculous and repetitive for me, and overall, I wanted more depth from the story, but I'd recommend this if you're looking for a very fun, light read for the summer.

I am a huge Lynn Painter fan - if she writes it I’ll be buying and reading it the first chance I get for adult or ya reads. While this was not my favorite of hers, it was still a fun and lighthearted read that I really enjoyed.

Fake dating, forced proximity, billionaire romance. Oh and Dex might just be the modern day Mr. Darcy?!?! This was SO GOOD! I loved the dual POV and Lynn Painter’s writing style is so enjoyable. I absolutely loved Abi & Declan’s meet cute at the beginning and was invested pretty much immediately. I loved learning about the billionaire shareholders weekend, it was news to me that this is a real event that takes place in Omaha every year, where Lynn Painter is from. An absolute classic rom com, reminded me of Maid in Manhattan and Pretty Woman meet a modern day Pride and Prejudice. This was my first Lynn Painter book and I’m SO excited to read more of her work, specifically Better Than The Movies and Fake Skating!

DEX REALLY WROTE “you have bewitched me, body and soul” for Abi and I LOST IT!!! Such a fun, quick read.

Thank you to Berkley for the ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

I think I need to stop reading Lynn Painter’s adult romances because so far they’ve all been disappointments. Overall this was fine, but seeing as this is basically Maid in Manhattan/Cinderella with some Robin Hood & Pretty Woman mixed in, I’ve definitely read this story before.

•inexplicably wealthy MMC
•maid/barista FMC
•fake dating
•third act breakup

Abi’s apartment is suffering from some sort of unknown infestation (ironic for a maid) & has nowhere to go, but knows one of her cleaning clients is out of town so she takes it upon herself to stay there. Except she wakes up in Declan’s apartment the next morning only to find his parents there, who assume she’s the fake “Abby” girlfriend their son claims to have.

He tracks her down & she agrees to pretend to be with him in exchange for $40k to pay off her student loans. She gives him a super cringey nickname. Yadda yadda yadda, they fall for each other, the end.

PS - Maybe don’t credit Jane Austen for the “you’ve bewitched me” line of the hand flex Pride & Prejudice film from 2005.

(Also…this isn’t the author’s fault, but it didn’t help that I have a massively toxic ex who shares the same last name as the FMC, which is what Declan constantly calls her by.)

Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I love Lynn Painter. Her characters are so relatable and the banter is *chef's kiss* in every book.

This one was no exception. Of course, it was predictable, but I knew that going in.

The only thing I didn't love was the ending -- there were too many questions that still remained for me.

Thanks to Berkley Romance for an advance copy of Maid for Each Other by Lynn Painter.

Lynn Painter is such a hoot -- I love her books and I know I'm going to be laughing out loud reading them. Plus, who doesn't want a romance centered in Omaha, Nebraska? (I love that her books are set here, it's fun and different!).

This book is Pretty Woman meets Maid in Manhattan. Throw in some fake dating and I'm sold. I love Painter's banter and endearing characters. I thought the whole millionaire romance aspect was done well.

If you're looking for a fun rom-com that's perfect for throwing in your beach bag, pick this up!

First things first- I LOVE a Denver mention! Also, I’m really into the chapter titles. Being back chapter titles!

Ok, now for the actual review.

This was so cute! I loved the banter between Dex and Abi! They were silly and flirty- perfect combo. I’m always into a fake dating romance, and this one was so much fun!

It was a tad cheesy, but I don’t mind that.

This was such a fun read, like other Lynn Painter books it was funny and addictive, I read it nearly all in one sitting finishing it in a day!

I was a little nervous about the premise, I’m not usually into millionaire romances, but this wasn’t really like that at all. The money was a stumbling block to the relationship more than anything, and it was nice to see that played out in the story rather than just a “Pretty Woman” type situation.

The banter was fantastic, I LOVE a book that makes me laugh out loud and smile at the witty back and forth.

This was a great light read that left you feeling satisfied.

Thank you to NetGalley and Berkeley Publishing for providing me with a copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

Made for Each Other is a fine, quick, and easy romance read. The story follows Abi, a cleaner who ends up crashing at a client’s penthouse while he’s out of town, only to be mistaken for his girlfriend by his visiting parents. When Declan, the penthouse’s uptight owner, finds out, he convinces Abi to keep up the fake dating charade… for both their benefit.

There were definitely some sweet and entertaining moments, but I found myself wanting more emotional depth and stronger character development. Some of the dialogue felt a little cringey, which pulled me out of the story. I didn’t dislike the book, but it didn’t leave a lasting impression either. It would make a good palate cleanser, book because it was an easy and light read.

Thank you to Berkley and NetGalley for the early copy!

Thank you so much Netgalley for the ARC. In exchange, I have my honest review.

This was another classic from Lynn Painter that had me absolutely cackling to myself. The story focuses on Abi, who is as hard working as they come. She works multiple jobs to pay the bills, but still pursues her passion of writing when she finds the time. Who else deserves to get tangled up with a multi millionaire??

Dex is as rich as the sun is bright; flaunting his wealth at every moment and not giving a care. Until, an unexpected event causes his plans to be derailed and a very fun red hed to plant herself in his life. The pair learns their drastic differences in life, but seem to find a common ground the benefits them both. Although her abrupt entrance might have knocked him off balance, it seems he found himself a new centre of gravity along the way.

This whole story is light hearted, fun, ridiculous, and a damn good time. The perfect read for anyone wanting an adorable romance!
