Lies get you nowhere in life, as Mindy soon found out. In comes Oliver to save the day, but neither one is prepared for the outcome! A light hearted romance you've got to read. BTW, just warning you, Grandma is a hoot!

If this is what a fake fiancé looks like...where do I sign up?

When Oliver Steele does something he goes all out much to Mindy's chagrin. She thought, a bit naively, she could take home a stranger to her mother's wedding have him play the part of doting fiancé while following her carefully constructed rules. What she didn't count on was Oliver's complete disregard for rules and his ability to make her panties wet and knees weak.

There was a scene in this book which I still can't shake - the condom and the dog (don't worry no one gets hurt and nothing weird happens - just a hell of a lot of laughs!)

Landish hits the spot again with the Irresistible Bachelor series... hope there's more to come!

I really enjoyed this. Oliver is sexy and I think we all want to be engaged to him. Mindy has been lying to her family about being engaged because she wants to keep her mother off her back. Of course it all falls apart when she and her 'fiance' are invited to her mother's wedding. In steps Oliver a friend of Mindy's best friend's husband to save the day. Trouble is, he won't be told what to do so things get a little rocky at times. Overall, I laughed out loud at parts of this story. I loved Mindy's family. Especially her grandmother. That woman is hilarious. Hot and sexy story. Didn't need all the extras after Mr Fiance though.

When Mindy told her family she was engaged, she figured it was just a harmless little white lie. A year later her mother is getting married and she insists that Mindy invites her fiance to the festivities. Oliver Steele owes his friend and agrees to pretend to be Mindy's fiance for a week. He makes it clear to Mindy that he won't just go along with everything she says. Wow, this is a laugh out loud funny, emotional, sexy and sweet romantic comedy. All of the characters are fascinating wonderfully well written. The plot is interesting and fun with some twists, and there is a happily ever after, definitely a must read. Fantastic book!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book.

I absolutely loved reading this book. I must admit I always enjoy Lauren's book's and this book is no exception. She balances the heat in her books as she weaves her storytelling whilst providing some of the funniest scenarios. Our leading lady Mindy has no filter and is absolutely unapologetic about it - which makes for some hilarious moments throughout.

Mindy is the serial dater/party girl, turned workaholic since becoming a co-owner of the coffee shop she works in. Mindy lied to her mother over a year ago as she was sick of being pestered about her man status and told her that she was happily engaged!! She manages to derail her through phone calls but when has to front up to her mothers wedding, she's forced to either tell the truth or produce a handsome, rich fiancé as her date.

A good friends husband makes an arrangement with one of his poker buddies and although skeptical at first, once Oliver see's a photo of Mindy, he is all in. Oliver is handsome, wealthy, smart and charming, not to mention sexy - much more than Mindy could have ever dreamed of. She tries to set some ground rules for their week-long fake engagement, but it's quickly made clear that following rules does not interest Oliver in the least! ... 'I’m thinking about Mindy. And rules. The only thing separating me from her is a flimsy barrier of rules she’s put up between us. And if I want to get the rules to change . . . I need to change the game.'
Enter the charades and shenanigans!!

If you want to read a story with hot, sexy scenes that starts as a big fat lie then turns into so much more you're going to love Mr. Fiancé! It was the perfect romantic comedy - funny, witty, great banter, fantastic one liners and a touch of angst and then finishing off with a wonderful happy ending. I haven't read Anaconda but Lauren Landish sure outdid herself with Mr. Fiancé! I highly recommend it.

Mr Fiancé by Lauren Landish a blissful five-star read. This is a stand-alone book, but you do see Brianna and Gavin ‘Anaconda’ Adams pop up which I personally loved as I adored Anaconda when I read it, and I has high hopes for this book when I saw it coming, needless to say it didn’t let me down. I loved this story so much, I adored Mindy and her lack of filter when she popped up in Anaconda so was so happy we got to see so much of her when she got her own book.
Mindy Isabella Price has a good life even if it can be hectic running the Bengals Den, but as her bestie owns the place it’s not too much of a challenge, the challenge in her life comes from her family. The challenge from them comes due to the fact Mindy told them that she has had a fiancé called Harold for over a year, and now there is a family wedding and Harold’s presence is needed. Not really a challenge until you find out Mindy may have told a tiny fib to get her mum off her case and Harold may not exist. This leads to much hilarity and Bri and Gavin stepping in to help.
Oliver Steele is tall, cocky and rich, it also helps that he is panty wettingly handsome and he is the one who has agreed to step in to ‘Harold’s’ shoes, for a week to help. Not that he does it for altruistic reasons, but that’s digressing. One week is all they have to pretend to be together, but one week may be to long. Oliver doesn’t like to follow the rules, he lives to push boundaries and enjoys taking things to far, will he push Mindy to breaking point? Or will they make it down the fake aisle for real?
I would marry Oliver in a heart-beat, but Mindy isn’t me, she is a strong willed, woman who makes a mean coffee, and has a good heart, she would do anything for her friends and family, even if it breaks her. This book is so funny you will laugh out loud, but it’s also so sweet it will guarantee your teeth will ache, ache in a good kinda John Wayne way.

Oliver and Mindy.

What starts as a lie evolves into much more...

Mindy's mom is engaged and for her wedding, she requests to meet Mindy's fiance, Harold, whom she's never met but whom Mindy has been engaged to for over a year.

Except the issue is, Harold is a fake. He's a made-up man to halt Mindy's mom's attempts at pairing her up with every eligible bachelor her mom knows.

Enter Oliver, a friend of Mindy's best friend's husband (that was a mouth full)

Their adventure begins. Sparks fly as soon as these two strangers set their sights on each other, so does the challenge. Both have egos and pride which causes them to start the game of who can one-man the other.

This story was funny, it was infectious in the humor it contained. It was blazing with the chemistry it described and it was engaging with the banter between all characters.

Oliver and Mindy has so much chemistry between them, you could feel the sexual tension in the air. I loved Mindy's character a lot, she's just like every young woman, confident in herself and a go getter. Oliver's character was the perfect balance for Mindy's.

I really had a great time delving into their lives, their relationship with each other as well as their family.

A fun read that will grab your attention as you laugh, as you feel the heat (it burns) and as you celebrate with this two characters.

I was super excited when I started reading Mr. Fiancé and realized who this book’s heroine was- if you read Anaconda then you will remember Mindy – the heroine’s sassy BFF . Well this is her love story and what a story it is.

Mindy is now the manager at Beangal's Den Coffee House. She gets a call from her mom telling she is getting married and she (Mindy) better come home for the wedding with her “fiancé” .Mindy now has to find someone to pretend to play her “loving fiancé “ but who? She turns to her BFF Brianna who confers with her hubby Gavin. He has a friend named Oliver who owes Gavin a pretty huge sum of money from when they played poker and if Oliver helps Gavin with this “favor”, he will wipe out that debt. Well, then Oliver will be playing the “ loving fiancé “ to Mindy.
Their mutual beneficial fake arrangement ends up evolving into a real relationship. There is angst, passion(A LOT OF), tons of humor, sassy banter, great chemistry between the main characters and fantastic secondary characters making reappearances. I adored the sexual tension which led to some awesome lovemaking scenes. Lauren Landish outdid herself with the followup to Anaconda. Mindy and Olivier- They had fabulous banter and hot chemistry. I look forward to reading what Ms. Landish puts out next.

My Rating: 4.8 stars *****

Lauren Landish does it again with a book that will have you laughing and cheering on the characters, Mindy and Oliver. We were introduced to Mindy in Anaconda and I have been waiting for her story since then and the author doesn't disappoint. She had me laughing in the first book and it continued in this one. All the characters had me laughing especially Mindy's family when we get to meet them when Mindy has Oliver pretend to be her fiancée. Oliver is Gavin's friend and when Oliver loses in poker to Gavin, instead of paying him the almost half million, Gavin tells him he doesn't have to pay him if he poses as Mindy's fiancée for a week. What a week it is with Mindy's mom getting married, between meeting everyone, doing all the pre-wedding traditions and just spending time together, the fake becomes more and more real.
What I enjoyed is not only the banter, the jokes, the laughing that the author pulls off but the characters that Lauren Landish has written, Oliver is of course a hot alpha male but he's not a man wh***, he looks after his mom and is starting his own company...refreshing....and Mindy has sass but also tries to please everyone else, looking after them and not worrying about herself.
A GREAT GREAT read that will have you laughing and maybe a little misty eyed as well, along with the steamy scenes....HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! 5+++++++ stars

I received an arc copy for a voluntary and honest review.

Mindy needed a fake fiancè and fast. With her mother's wedding approaching quickly Mindy had no choice but to ask her BFF Bir if she new someone.

And know someone she did!

If anything Bri and her hubby Gavin are loyal friends to Mindy.....more so because of her they were together. It's as if they owed her one and hoped it would work out in the end.

So Gavin does what any loyal friend would do. Playing a game of poker her had Oliver cornered. And Oli did not like where this was heading.

Oliver was done for and he knew it. So Gavin went in for the kill. He knew he had Oliver and it was only supposed to be a favor to Mindy' s crazy a$$, but when they first met they knew trouble would follow.

A deeply troubled matter of the heart....based on nothing but lies and deceit. How was anything going to work out when all they've done was lie.

And Oliver hated lies.

But they both couldn't deny the feelings that we're starting to brew for one another, but the reality of it being fake stomped the undeniable truth.

Emotional, passionate, and an all enthralling read!

Mindy has gotten herself into a bind. She reaches out to Brianna, her best friend, for help. That help comes in the form of Oliver. Oliver is kinda bribed into helping his friend Gavin out with a favor. Actually, the favor is for his wife's best friend, Mindy. If he does this favor, the debt he owes Gavin will be settled. It all starts out as fake, but soon you won't know what is real and what is fake anymore. After all, the two main characters are confused. I loved how Oli *Harold wouldn't follow the rules. I absolutely laughed when he called her "Princess" and then it became so endearing, I loved it all the more. When he kept changing the story or adding details to it, it was a scream. I loved how he blamed things on her bad memory. If you want to laugh and fall in love with a bunch of characters, read this. You will want a family just like Mindy's, for sure. I wish I could meet them all. When things come to a head, as they inevitably always do, Mindy is at a loss for what to do. Rather than fess up, she decides to carry on the lie on an even more grand level. Oliver isn't sure of what to do. He can't want this...can he? The whole thing blows up, but it isn't over yet...so keep reading. You will be so glad you did.

If this is what a fake fiancé looks like...where do I sign up?

When Oliver Steele does something he goes all out much to Mindy's chagrin. She thought, a bit naively, she could take home a stranger to her mother's wedding have him play the part of doting fiancé while following her carefully constructed rules. What she didn't count on was Oliver's complete disregard for rules and his ability to make her panties wet and knees weak.

There was a scene in this book which I still can't shake - the condom and the dog (don't worry no one gets hurt and nothing weird happens - just a hell of a lot of laughs!)

Landish hits the spot again with the Irresistible Bachelor series... hope there's more to come!

Mr. Fiancé is a super fun, scorching hot read with wit, sass, and sexy times exploding off the pages.

Lauren Landish hit it out of the park with an entertaining, new standalone RomCom. Bonus, you will have no problem following along if you haven't read Anaconda (like me ??‍♀️). But now I definitely have to!!!

Mindy and Oliver hit it off from their first meet. Their chemistry and attraction set the pace for the rest of the story. These are both smart, strong willed and determined people. Mindy has dug herself into a hole of lies with her family. Oliver is the perfect accomplice to amplify the situation. I mean, Mindy's family is a hoot!! I love their lack of filter and their raunchy sense of humor. It helps carry the story when Mindy is feeling lost.

Oliver and Mindy's relationship moves FAST but it's doesn't feel unnatural. I was totally cheering for them to Get. It. On!! And then FIREWORKS ?

The end felt a little rushed for me, a little wrapped up in a bow, but sooooo good at the same time.

Add this one to your summer reading list! You'll love it ??

I really enjoyed this. Oliver is sexy and I think we all want to be engaged to him. Mindy has been lying to her family about being engaged because she wants to keep her mother off her back. Of course it all falls apart when she and her 'fiance' are invited to her mother's wedding. In steps Oliver a friend of Mindy's best friend's husband to save the day. Trouble is, he won't be told what to do so things get a little rocky at times. Overall, I laughed out loud at parts of this story. I loved Mindy's family. Especially her grandmother. That woman is hilarious. Hot and sexy story. Didn't need all the extras after Mr Fiance though.

Mindy is the manager of the coffee shop Bengals Den which is owned by her best friend Bri and her husband Gavin. She is happily single however she has told her mother that she is engaged so she stops telling her she needs a man.

Oliver Steele is a playboy billionaire who has no interest in any relationship and is friends with Gavin.

When Mindy’s mom tells her she is getting married and that Mindy must bring her fiancée to the wedding she panics and calls Bri. Gavin offers to pay Oliver to do this favor and once Oliver sees a picture of Mindy he agrees. They only need to convince her family for one week however they both struggle for control and Oliver has never followed a rule in his life and loves to see Mindy’s reaction when he doesn’t. How far are they willing to take this face and will they be able to convince her family or will it all blow up in their faces?

OMG the family antics were hilarious and the chemistry between the two was hot!I voluntarily reviewed this book as an advanced reader copy.

Oliver Steele is every girl's dream fiance. Single, rich, good looking, and charming. The only problem Mindy has is that it's all fake. After losing a very large hand at poker with his buddy Gavin, Oliver agrees to settle his debt by becoming Mindy's fake fiance for a week while she attends her mother's wedding.

All is going well until lines get crossed and become blurred and real feelings become involved. They share some special bonding time together and share some very special and funny moments, one with her mother's dog Bertha is quite hilarious and memorable.

The wedding finally happens and their fake engagement is put to the ultimate test in front of Mindy's family and even though their feelings are becoming real, the lies they have spun ultimately blow up in their faces. Can Oliver prove that he really has fallen for Mindy and will she let him love her for real? Beautiful epiloge that will leave you feeling happy with their choices. I recieved an ARC for my honest review.

Mindy has spent the last year lying to her family by telling them that she's met this fantastic guy, Harold, and he'd popped the question without the family having met him. When her mother informs her that in a week she's getting married, Mindy panics, her best friend Brianna's husband Gavin, comes to her rescue. His buddy from poker night, Oliver, lost a hand worth a cool half mil, but instead of collecting the money, he strikes a deal, Oliver can go with Mindy for the week o her mother's wedding as Mindy's fiancé. As soon as Oliver sees the picture of Mindy something makes him agree. When the two actually meet there are sparks.
This story grabbed me from the first sentence and kept me reading all night long, I could NOT put it down. I loved this story, the characters in Mindy's family are a total riot. I hope that we get to read about Mindy's sister, Roxy or Oli's brother, Tony next. They both deserve to get their other half.

If you read Lauren's last fabulous release, Anaconda, then you'll definitely remember meeting Mindy. She's the fun, feisty best friend of Bri. Mindy has no filter and is absolutely unapologetic about it, which makes for some hilarious moments throughout the story. Little did we know that when we met her family, we would see that she definitely comes by that trait honestly!

Serial dater/party girl, turned workaholic since becoming a co-owner of the coffee shop she works in, Mindy told a fib to her mother about a year ago. She was fed up with fending off questions about when she was going to settle down and start making some grand-babies, so she lied and told her mother that she was happily engaged. This was no problem when their interactions were kept to just phone calls, but when Mindy's mom calls to invite her to her wedding, she's forced to either fess up or produce a handsome, rich fiance as her date to the wedding.

Bri's well meaning husband Gavin makes an arrangement with one of his good friends and poker buddies and although skeptical at first, once Oliver saw a photo of Mindy, he was all in. More than Mindy could have ever dreamed up in her own imagination, Oliver is handsome, wealthy, smart, funny and charming, not to mention panty-melting sexy. She tries to set some ground rules for their week-long sham engagement, but it's quickly made clear that following rules does not interest Oliver in the least.

Their chemistry is absolutely electric from the first innocent touch. As the week progresses it becomes harder and harder for Mindy to keep her distance. Oliver is not only charming her entire family, but he's also charming Mindy. The lines between what's fake and what's real, start to get very blurred. Their bodies are very on board with the intimate developments of their relationship, but it's when the hearts start getting involved that it gets really real.

Will Mindy and Oliver be able to keep up the ruse until the end of the week? Will they be able to walk away from each other after starting to have genuine feelings for each other? There's so much potential for hurt feelings and broken hearts, but what if it could actually work? It could be forever kind of love that Mindy's been looking for.

This was the perfect romantic comedy. Funny, sexy and witty with a touch of angst and a beautiful happy ending. I absolutely loved this book!

I received this book with the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review.

In this book we me Oliver Steel and we get Mindy Price's story (we meet Mindy in Anaconda). When this book opens up we find Mindy still working at the same coffee shop in the hotel we found her working at when we met her in Anaconda. However now she works for Gavin and Brianna instead of the hotel as their manager. Though she has dreams about owning her own coffee shop she knows she has bigger fish to fry right now. When her mother calls to tell her she is getting married in two weeks and the fake fiance she has had for the last year, well her mom wants to meet him. What's a girl to do well first freak out, second ask her best friend to help out. Can she trust the guy though or will she find that the lies she has told in the past will just be to much for the present?

Oliver isn't looking to settle down with anyone so when all the guys at his poker game start talking about their wives he starts tuning out. Oliver has a lot on his plate and adding a permanent woman in the mix just isn't in the cards right now. However when he looses a pretty big hand to Gavin he is handed a reprieve when Gavin tells him instead of money he wants him to help out Mindy. Gavin isn't buying however till he gets a look at the lovely Mindy. Will he find that their is more to them then their original agreement or will he loose something more precious than money before this is over?

This is a great book about not only finding love but finding that line that all of us have to walk with out families. This book has quite a few quirks in it that will have you hooked from the first word to the very end. I want to tell you more about it but don't want to ruin this book for any other readers. I will say that I would highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone.

What an amazing read. Lauren catches your attention from the start and keeps you engaged until the very end. The characters are amazing, Oliver first seems to be cocky and a bit conceded, he becomes the "Fake" Fiance to square a debt lost at a poker game. Mindy is outspoken and a bit crass, but lately she hasn't really been herself, that is until she needs to come up with someone to play Harold, her fiance for the last year.

Mindy's family is in your face, as it is, and absolutely great. If you can't be embarrassed by family life is boring. And never forget Grandma, no filter on that lady. This book had me giggling, sighing, and wishing for the best possible fairy-tale. I voluntarily read an ARC copy and it was awesome. I love Lauren's ability to draw you into the story and keep you wanting more.

I was thrilled to hear Mindy from "Anaconda" was getting her own book and it's better than I imagined. Mindy is a spunky, in-your-face kinda gal with a caring heart. There's one thing that shakes her confidence - her mother's expectations for perfect daughters. That little white lie Mindy told her mom a year ago is about to bite her in the butt and the neck and on her...well you need to read it.

I received an advance review copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. This was truly a great book and can be read as a standalone. I would still suggest reading Anaconda to truly get the bond of the characters (and it's awesome). A tissue or two may have been destroyed during the reading of this book but I can be a romantic sap at times. I highly recommend this book.

I absolutely adored Mindy as Bri's best friend in Anaconda. She was so sassy and full of spunk, so I was thrilled to hear that Lauren Landish was giving Mindy her own story.

Generally, the fake relationship trope is not a favorite of mine. Too often, the main characters falling for each other feels forced to me, and by the time they get to The Conflict that makes them realize their feelings for one another are genuine, I don't feel emotionally invested. But that was not the case with Mr. Fiancé. Yes, this book follows the basic formula of the fake relationship pact, but Landish did a great job in showing (as opposed to telling!) the reader how Oliver and Mindy were starting to fall for one another. There are a lot of little moments between the characters that sealed the deal for me, so by the time The Conflict arose and Mindy discovered Oliver's reasons for agreeing to be her fiancé for a week, I was totally rooting for this couple to just get it together!

Oliver handled the argument in a mature way, and how he goes about wooing Mindy for real was so on point! Mr. Fiancé also had enough of the characters' friendships with Brie and Gavin (from Anaconda) sprinkled in throughout the storyline that gives the reader an update on that couple without taking away from the story of Mindy and Oliver themselves.

Now, can we please get Roxy and Anthony paired up next???

Mr. Fiance by Lauren Landish
I just loved this story. Mindy has to attend her mother’s wedding and she is told to bring her fiance with her. The only thing is she made him up to get her mother off her back. Her mother wanted to fix her up with so many men and Mindy was not interested. In comes Oliver her best friends husband’s buddy. He agrees to act as her so called fiance for a week and the situation’s they get themselves into are intense and funny. Oh and did I mention very sexual. Can what starts out as a fake relationship turn real between Mindy and Oliver??? You must read this to believe it. I enjoyed this book so much and I never wanted it to end. And it had two bonus books attached that were also great: Over the Middle, and Reckless. I loved them both. Great reads.

Wow, I thought Anaconda was a great book, but Lauren Landish sure outdid herself with Mr. Fiancé! I have never read a story before that so sucked me in that made me believe the lie I knew was there! Mindy being the least offensive of her family was something I couldn't have believed until I saw it for myself! Oliver definitely gave them a run for their time and hilarity. Roxy was a hoot and I am really hoping that her story comes next. If you want to read a story with hot, sexy scenes that goes from the big lie into something more, you're going to love this one! The way Lauren Landish portrays things makes the scene pop out at you and I admit that I completely cried at one point!

I received a complimentary copy of the story and am voluntarily reviewing it!

Mindy’s mother is getting married and she asks Mindy to bring her fiancé with her so she can finally meet him. But Mindy is in reality not engaged and just said it so that her mother stopped complaining about her being single. Mindy needs to find someone who wants to pretend to be her fiancé for one week. Oliver will be that man. He wants to know Mindy better and he enjoys that one week they’re spending together.

I loved Mindy and Oliver. Mindy is sweet, funny, determined and loving. She works very hard and dreams about owning her own shop. She needs some vacation and can’t wait to see her sister again. Oliver is setting up his own business and he’s determined to make it a success. He’s rich, smart, hot, sweet and caring.

Everything happens fast between Oliver and Mindy, but it felt right. Mindy and Oliver were attracted to each other from the moment they first met. They spend a lot of time together during that week and grow closer. Their feelings become stronger. They want a relationship after that week, but they aren’t sure how to say it to the other.

I didn’t read Anaconda before reading this book, so it definitely can be read as a standalone. After meeting the characters from Anaconda, I want to read that book, because I like them a lot. They are great friends of Mindy.

I loved Anaconda, but I really loved Mr. Fiance even more. Oliver was not as annoying as Gavin was in Anaconda. Oliver starts off arrogant but turns out to have a sweet side to him that I got into. I really loved Mindy in Anaconda and loved her even more in Mr. Fiance. There is drama, humor and hot steamy sex. Lauren Landish does a good job of roping you into the story. The secondary characters make the story worth it, in my opinion. The secondary characters are irreverent and have no filter and yet they seem real. If you read Anaconda and enjoyed it, then in my opinion Mr. Fiance is even better. In my opinion Lauren Landish does a good job of making you want to get to know the secondary characters. I received an ARC edition for my honest and voluntary review.

Better than Anaconda! Kept me up late reading wanted to see what would happen. The characters are great and have a good dynamic. There is Mindy the strong woman who speaks her mind. Her Mom thinks she is getting married but "Harold" does not exist. When she is invited to her mother's wedding and told to bring Harold, what is she going to do?

Then there is Oliver, who wants to have a new life helping out his Mom but when you lose a REALLY BIG poker hand, you may agree to do just about anything. There is great chemistry and it is an emotional and funny read. Good family characters, just gotta love them. I enjoyed the book, hope you do as well.

This was such a cute story with very steamy moments. Mindy needs to find a fiancé, named Harold, for her mother's wedding otherwise her family will know all her lies. Thank goodness for loving friends who blackmail (or should say convince) unsuspecting men who lose large sums of money in poker to help. At first, Oliver and Mindy rub each other the wrong way, but as time passes and they get to know each other their feelings change. However, can a relationship that starts off as a lie really become more? Will the truth come out before Mindy is ready to face her family? Will Oliver finally be willing to take the biggest risk of all?

I need more ROXY!

What a funny and sexy read! I really enjoyed reading this book. I couldn't put this book down. It is for sure a book worth checking out. I laughed and fanned myself so much. Mindy needs a favor aka Fake Fiance !! Oliver needs to pay back money from a poker game!! They only needed it each other for one week to Fix their problem .What could possibly go wrong when fake begins to start feeling real! Their chemistry started from the first time they laid eyes on each other ....will the chemistry last? Will the lies be to much? Will Mindy family find out? Will they ever admit how they truely feel about each other?? You absolutely want to read this book to find out. I really enjoyed reading this book. You will to.... I so recommend this book!

Super cute and funny. Oliver and Mindy are too adorable for words and this was a delightful read. They didn't mean for this to go as far as it went but you can't predict your feelings.
Mindy was the scene stealer in the Anaconda book so I was happy to read her story. Glad she got her happily ever after and man, the name Oliver always belongs to sexy men. This character is no different.
The scene stealer this book is Roxy. Can we have her book next? Maybe with Anthony? Thanks again for an enjoyable read!

When you lie big lies sometimes they turn around and bite you. But in this case Oliver and Mindy should have really just told each other the truth instead of fessing up to the lie. But turned out to be a payback of a bet and lying to her family about having a fiancé trouble started right away, but they fell hard for each other. But again afraid of telling the other of their feelings. It was a funny story and really loved all the characters. Hope she continues with another story possibly Oliver, Mindy, Bri and Gavin? I know they can all get into some kind of trouble.

This book is the next success story of Lauren Landish, I'm sure!
The story makes you feel warm and cosy deep inside your heart. But it also makes you suffer with the two protagonists in their predicament and through all the unexpected twists and turns.
I loved the really funny bantering between Oliver and Mindy as well as the slow erotic building up and the sexual tension of the story. And I loved the cat- and- mouse- games.

I can’t wait for the next book by Lauren Landish!

Mindy & Oliver!

I enjoyed this book. I loved Mindy's unfiltered words! And her sister Roxy was even better! (I'd love her book) Oliver was just the perfect compliment to Mindy.

The beginning is one I've heard before - need a fake fiancé because I don't have a backbone to stand up to my family- but the story was different. It was fun, flirty, filthy and down right hilarious at times.

But when did being fake turn real? They can't tell what's fake and what's real anymore but neither is wanting to tell each other the truth.

I really loved Mindy until she nearly forced Oliver into a situation he didn't want to be in. At least not yet! I'm glad she came to her senses.

OH goodness! What a great read! I loved this story so much. It made me laugh, because honestly, Mindy and her family are a trip! It made me cry, because honest emotion is hard to experience. And most of all it made me smile because I love to read a great book! The chemistry between Mindy and Oliver is out of this world and they hold up well on their week of lies until the very end when her family goes just a little to far for comfort. Definitely a one-click buy

Mindy finds herself in a pickle after lying to her family about a fiance which she doesn't have. She needs to take that fiance to her mother's wedding. What do to?! Oliver loses in poker in the amount of $500,000 to Mindy's best friend's husband and he makes a deal after seeing Mindy's picture to exchange the loss to be a fake fiance for Mindy. Their chemistry is off the charts and you can't help but cheer for them to fall in love along the way.

This book was AWESOME! Oliver and Mindy were total opposites and the situation they find themselves in is laughable, but there were no chuckles here! Only moans. Oliver manages to break down Mindy's walls with one delicious, hot moment at a time. He is the best mix of Boy Scout and bad boy and Mindy can only hold out so long until she gives in and lets Oliver have his way and when she does, a love neither expected blossoms and catches them both by surprise. What do you do when the lie becomes truth? One-click and you'll find out! ❤️

What do you do when your mother keeps bugging you about getting married and wants to try to set you up? You lie and tell her you have a fiancé so she'll leave you alone. What happens when mom wants to meet said fiancé? You panic, then you go get yourself a fake fiancé. Mindy and Oliver were fantastic. I loved the two of them together! This was a great romantic comedy that had me laughing and not wanting to put it down.

I loved reading the fabulous and fantastic romance story by the wonderfully talented Lauren Landish. I voluntarily reviewed a copy.
Mindy's mom is getting married and needs a fake fiancé named Harold for a week. Her best friend, Brianna and her husband, Gavin, have the perfect fiance' for her, Oliver. Hot and sexy Oliver agrees to the name Harold but not to any of the rules Mindy has outlined for him.
Read the highly recommended, beautifully written full of romance and humor, and a must read love story.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. I absolutely loved Mindy and Oliver's story. I was so glad to see that Mindy got her own story. The way these two met was great. Right from the time of them meeting you know that their chemistry is going to be great. Mindy had me laughing at times between her sassy mouth and the way she sets rules for Oliver to follow. Oliver of course wants nothing to do with the rules. I enjoyed how Gavin played a part in the two coming together. Roxie, Mindy's sister was also a wise cracking character herself. I enjoyed everything about this story. Mindy and Oliver are one hot and steamy couple. I really liked how the story ended. With an HEA! And maybe the possibility of Roxie and Tony?

Bravo. I knew after reading Anaconda, that Mindy’s story would be hilariously awesome. And…well, duh, Landish delivered! Oliver is cocky, funny, charming, and hugely manly. Emphasis on the huge. Mindy is just as witty as before, often times shown up by her even more outspoken younger sister Roxy. This is a perfect fit for anyone looking for a light (mostly), pee your pants (I dare you not to) read. Bye felicia.
Oh, and I received this book in an exchange for an honest review yadda yadda yadda…
