This was the typical grumpy hero that needs to have a fake relationship to achieve a goal and needs the heroine who is a complete stranger be in a fake relationship to attain that goal read. This time, this typical read takes place in London with a heroine is trying to secure her job while getting over a cheating fiance and figuring out her life all while having repeated reminders of her deceased mother keep popping up in the form of a popular movie star and his series of movies that have taken place in destinations that she keeps finding herself at both intentionally and unintentionally though out the book.
Tuesday is an American trying to figure out her life when she runs into Ben in a case of mistaken identity and keeps running into him. She agrees to his fake relationship but continues to second guess her decision when she realizes that she likes the people Ben is trying to do business with and when she starts to develop feelings for him.
Ben is the typical grumpy, closed off businessman who has a business deal that he wants to close but needs to change his image in order to do so. He does not open up to others easily until nearly the end of their story, but he wins the hearts of the reader in the small gestures that he makes for Tuesday.
Their story moved along really quickly but I think that where the movie references were important, they were a bit overdone making some of the story hard to believe. I enjoyed the banter between the characters once Ben relaxed a little but really was not in love with Tuesday. I felt that she spent so much time trying to please others it made her a weak character. I understand her love for the movie star since it brought her memories of her deceased mother, but I still think it was over the top especially since she admits that she had a teen obsession with the star and she was well into her twenties during the events of this book.
Where this story was told from the heroine's POV, I think that I would have enjoyed it more if it was told from a dual POV. In the audio version of this book, I did enjoy the performance by Erin Mallon. She did a good job performing this narration.
Overall, this was just an okay read for me. I think that I would have enjoyed it further if it was told from dual POV so that we got a better look at the hero.
