Publisher's Summary
Bakery owner Willow Dalton's friendship with Zane Walker has always been a bit complicated. Now a scrumptiously hot A-list actor, Zane's always had a reputation as a player. He's arrogant, and he's definitely not boyfriend material. Sure, he did Willow a favor by agreeing to take her virginity before college, but is that reason enough for her to go along with a fake engagement a decade later - even if it comes with a real diamond ring?
Zane should have known better. Nothing involving Willow has ever been easy. Still, he knows her better than anyone, and becoming America's hottest new leading man means cleaning up his reputation. An "engagement" to curvy, sass-mouthed Willow is the perfect PR move...provided no one gets hurt.
Now Zane and Willow's little white lie has turned into an irresistible recipe for sweet temptation. And soon no one will be able to tell the difference between their fake engagement and the real thing - including them.

Narrator does a good job.
Took too long for these two to become likable and by then I didn’t care.
I just couldn’t like either Willow or Zane. The secondary characters were good though.
Friends for years but the silliness of Willow wanting to give her virginity to Zane, just so she didn’t go to college a virgin. Really stupid and immature thinking at 18.
These two just rubbed me wrong on so many fronts which is a pity. The, I’ve loved you for years, vibe just didn’t show up for me.
Neither are honest, likeable or believable. In fact, both of them are pretty imbecilic and I hated the deception that was also perpetrated on the family. Zane had practically grown up with Willows family, so that was really mean.
They do come clean but it still didn’t feel realistic.
Zane starts this of with lies and deception, basically forcing Willow to become his fake fiancé, then leering at some busty blond that crossed his path.
Willow’s thinking is unbelievably immature and I just couldn’t understand her going along with the deception.
I think this author’s leading men are becoming too a-holish for me.
I listened to this though KU.
