Imagine if your father, or in this case, your grandfather owns a successful business and you are running it. But your grandfather is an old school man who believes that a woman is not successful enough if she doesn't have a family, especially a husband. He even threatens your future in the company if you don't get married and settle down. what would you do?Would you rather walk away from it all or you would rather get married to someone you know your grandfather hates with his guts just to piss him off just like Melissa did when he married Trevor? This book was such a wonderful read, I enjoyed every page and I got lost in it all. Going through the power struggle and twisted family dynamics was my favourite thing. I didn't believe Trevor was a good guy judging from how Melissa described him in the beginning. This just shows how we should give each other a chance without making false conclusions about them.

Oh my gawd, I loved this story!!! It was everything I enjoy in a marriage of convenience book! In order to save her job with her grandfather’s company, Melissa must come up with a husband. Fast. After a meeting with her sisters, she has the perfect candidate. Trevor Bentley is an obnoxious, smug so-and-so and the one man that grates on her grandfather’s nerves more than anyone else. Unfortunately, she doesn’t like Trevor one bit and the feeling is mutual. With a lucrative “business” proposal in hand, she asks him to marry her. What follows is all the wonderful, mixed emotions and sexy times that a marriage of convenience can offer. Written completely in the heroine’s point of view, there is no doubt that the hero has more than just business on his mind. I loved how Trevor was all into Melissa. I’ve read books with dirty talkers and just during sex dirty talkers, but Trevor gave a whole new meaning to the word. His wasn’t your usual dirty talk, his was all about his lady. Sigh. Totally swoon worthy ladies! I especially enjoyed reading the emotional changes that took place within Melissa. She had built walls around her and Trevor’s smirky obnoxiousness, the thing that she had initially despised, were the tool that slowly crumbled them. And when he messes up. Holy heck he gave good grovel. Not all of it verbally, but sometimes remaining strong and steadfast is the best form of grovel. Sigh…again. This was such a fun and totally enjoyable read, fast paced with well-developed secondary characters and steam that will singe your fingers where you hold the page. The resolution is not a blink and it’s over but oh so perfect as it fit in with this hero and heroine. And the epilogue left me with a happy sob and then a giddy smile. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book provided by NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

i love the character of the guy. His love is greater than his ego. His not egoistic, he loves his parents. I hope there's a real guy out there, not willing to give up and let go without a fight. i love both their characters, really meant to be on that marriage from day 1. The strength of the one, is the weakness of the other and vise versa.
