All he wants in return is for me to be his fake wife?

My grumpy billionaire boss is the bane of my life and my embarrassing crush. So I must be crazy to agree to his proposal, right? A marriage of convenience for him, and in return, I’ll get a pregnancy to fulfill my grandmother’s wish.

The only catch?

He wants to get me pregnant the old fashioned way…

The heroine: Adrianne Blake – she wants to fulfill her grandmother’s last wish so she plans to get pregnant. Since she doesn’t currently have a man in her life and she is not wealthy enough to afford IVF, she goes online to get the “Magic Juice” at a discounted price. She not only wants to give her grandma a great grandchild before she dies, but she also wants someone to love who will love her back. Her father left when she was a baby and her mother died, so she doesn’t want to be alone when her grandmother goes. Adi is a twenty three year old virgin with a crush on her boss, whom she suspects might also be a mafia kingpin.

The Hero: Rhys Cavendish – he is a billionaire mob boss that runs half a dozen major companies. Miss Blake was working at one of them for nearly eighteen months before he showed up to check in on that company which was used mostly for laundering money from his illegal businesses. Rhys is a bit older that Adrianne but he fell for her the moment he first saw her and he has since been spending an inordinate amount of time at that company just so he can see her every day.

The story: When Rhys sees that Adi is looking for sperm donors online, he says she is not being safe and gives her a proposition, that he be the one to impregnate her and be her baby’s father. Mostly because he can’t even think of her being pregnant by another man. He has completely fallen for her and is obsessed with her. What he doesn’t know is that Adi has been crushing on him since she first met him, though she thought she, being a lowly assistant, would never have any chance with a handsome, wealthy man like him. So when he says he will father her baby in exchange for her being his “fake” wife, she agrees.

I have to admit, as silly as the premise was in this book, I didn’t mind it so much. I loved the fact that Rhys was so in love with Adi from the start. Usually these office romances play down the feelings of the grumpy boss and seem like the assistant is the only one crushing. The boss is always attracted and wants to get some, but I like the fact that in this one he is so in love with her. Though I am not too fond of the age difference, I am not a big fan of age-gap romance. I am even less fond of the virgin heroine. When I was in my teens and early twenties, I loved it when the heroine was a virgin, but now, it just seems too weird and makes the heroine seem too young and naïve.

This was a short read at less than 100 pages, though I was in the mood for something fast paced today, so it hit the spot for me. There was still plenty of story and some really steamy scenes as well. There was also quite a bit of humor which I really enjoyed.
