4 jours de folie
Imaginez la situation : vous êtes sur le point de quitter incognito l'appartement du garçon avec lequel vous venez de passer la nuit. Quand, soudain, vous décidez de laisser votre numéro de téléphone. L'instant d'après, vous vous retrouvez face à une omelette et un café et vous demandez au bel inconnu d'être votre faux petit ami pour le mariage de votre sœur le week-end suivant.
C'est comme ça que Poppy arrive au mariage de sa sœur au bras d'un garçon dont elle ne sait rien. Ni son nom de famille, ni comment elle l'a rencontré, ni où il a grandi, ce qu'il a étudié à l'université, ni combien de frères et sœurs il a.
Elle ne sait pas non plus que c'est Adam Winters, la star de l'équipe de hockey d'Orlando, qui s'avère être le joueur préféré de son père, mais aussi l'idole de son petit-neveu.
Et là, c'est parti pour quatre jours de quiproquos, de malentendus, de situations ubuesques que Poppy et Adam vont devoir gérer tant bien que mal. Et si ce petit jeu les rapprochait...
Une comédie romantique drôle et pleine de rebondissements.

Four Day Fling is my very first book by Emma Hart. I chose this book because I thought it looked like it was going to be a lot of fun with a sexy romance at the same time and yes, this did definitely ring true. But, I might have learned with this one that there is such a thing as too much sarcasm or snark. At times it distracted me from the story. As I got to know the main characters, I realized that Poppy uses the sarcasm as a sort of shield but still, for me it was a bit too much.
Poppy is twenty four years old and after college hasn’t figured out what she wants to do with her life yet. She is sharing an apartment with her best friend, Avery, and working as a waitress in Orlando, Florida. Poppy’s sister is getting married down in the Keys at a huge four day affair and has been told that she absolutely has to bring a date. After a one night stand with a gorgeous man that she knows nothing about, she decides to invite him as her fake boyfriend to the wedding, and surprisingly enough, he accepts.
Poppy is a flaming red-head who loves wearing snarky tshirts to aggravate her mother. Poppy considers herself clumsy and antisocial. As you get to know her, you see that she kind of uses her sarcasm as a kind of shield, that there is a softhearted woman in there. She dreads spending this time with her family but when you really see her in action, she kind of holds the whole thing together. She doesn’t seem to recognize her own value at all and I did love that about her.
Adam Winters is a rich, famous, hockey star. He can’t go anywhere without women throwing themselves at him, wanting to be close to him because of who he is. When he met Poppy in the bar, she had no idea who he was. She was the first woman that was attracted to him just for him. After their wild night together, when she asked him to spend the weekend at her sister’s wedding, he thought, why not. He liked spending time with her and thought it would be fun and some more guaranteed sex. The more time they spent together, though, the more he saw the parts of her she kept hidden. She made him laugh. Somewhere during those four days, his attraction to Poppy started to feel very real.
Poppy and Adam had agreed to a four day fling. Each day that passed, each kiss they exchanged, it began to feel more like a real relationship. Poppy knew, though, that a relationship with a professional athlete who is on the road more than he is home, was not something that she could handle. That when their four days was over, she had to go home alone. That four days was all they could have together.
I did enjoy this book. As I said above, it was fun and sexy and had some really sweet moments. I loved the ending. Well, I loved the ending AND the epilogue. And even though I understood Poppy, as I said before, I just felt a little bit overwhelmed with all of the snarky banter. At times, I even had to go back and re-read a sentence or two. I would think, wait, what? It took away from the romance just a bit. This is definitely an author, though, that I want to keep my eye on and see what she comes up with next as well as look through some of her previous books.

Some funny moments, and it was sweet and steamy for sure, but nothing that stood out.

I’m in love with this book cover.
In LOVE!!!
Such a beautiful hair color, my dream color, absolute #WetDreamAlexIsChasing.
Ah…. the power of Photoshop…
But the real life is cruel; you buy a new brand with a perfect print on the box, do a happy dance, then you apply it, patiently wait, rinse and look into the mirror with full expectation of this Goddess…
And you see…
(which is still cute as hell, but you wanted it sex-bomb-ish)
Story of my life...
But, well, I was actually talking about the book *lol*
Hilarious, funny, a bit weird and slightly absurd, sometimes exaggerated, maybe a bit OTT, but overall VERY FUNNY!
Amazing heroine, I liked Poppy a lot.
A girl, who lived through so many embarrassing situations, is normally not my coppa, but this woman owned it, she totally owned her personality. High five, girl! Cool!
Very likable hero, not a manwhore or alpha-hole, but a sweet and strong guy.
Together they were explosive!
Safe! They didn’t invite virgins into the book, and also did NOT slut-shame!
Looking forward to the story of heroine’s BFF Avery.
This woman won me with following line, which I also want to use as a perfect ending of my review!

I nudged him off me after a minute or so. Hot sex or not, a girl needed to wipe and get panties. And pee. That was real life, and while pornstars might have gone to sleep like that, I was no pornstar and the camera wasn’t about to shut off on me.
"You’re adorable when you blush." Adam grinned.
"Thank God," I drawled. "That was my life goal. Be adorable. Now, I can get it in neon lights over my bed."
Very likable hero, not a manwhore or alpha-hole, but a sweet and strong guy.
Together they were explosive!
"Did you just call me honey?"
"Would you prefer I reverted to Hockey Boy?"
"No, actually. I wouldn’t."
"All right. Hockey Boy it is."
"You have. I’m quite fond of it." He grinned and flicked his thumb over my lower lip. "I never claimed I wasn’t sarcastic myself. Actually, I think you bring it out in me. Is it infectious?"
"No. It’s a language for smart people. It’s how we confuse the idiots."
He nodded. "It’s hard. Why do you think I’m single?"
"I dunno. I assumed you had a really bad habit. Like biting your toenails or something."
Safe! They didn’t invite virgins into the book, and also did NOT slut-shame!

I was super excited to read Four Day Fling by Emma Hart, plus I absolutely loved the cover. I must admit, I do have a thing for red heads, so this story definitely drew me in from the get go. I was searching for the ultimate romcom to read. All I craved was something sweet, fun, flirty and sexy to draw me in and get me hooked. Four Day Fling was simply one of those books that is an absolute joy to read and leaves you with a smile on your face. It certainly did deliver on everything I was searching for.
Poppy is in the ultimate predicament. Not only is it bad enough that she has to spend four days with her family, who are quite possibly crazy (especially her mother), but her sister’s getting married and Poppy is in desperate need for a date to the four-day wedding from hell. After waking up next to her one night stand she believes she has found the solution to her problem; the date she so desperately needs. Poppy is not above begging and pleading for this sexy stranger to be her fake boyfriend for four days.
Adam agrees to be Poppy’s fake boyfriend during the four-day wedding vacation, but has no idea at the time what he has gotten himself into. Clearly not a sporting fan, Poppy has no idea who Adam is, that is, until she introduces him to her family as her boyfriend. Her family knows who this sporting superstar is and to say they are massive fans is an understatement.
I absolutely adored Poppy, she just made this read so much fun for me. She’s a total badass; positively crazy, batty and a fierce red head to boot. She always says it like it is, never sugar-coats any situation and is totally fearless to a fault. All the craziness that is Poppy made me laugh out loud so much and I just loved her outspoken persona.
Adam was awesome, the complete package. He’s so adorable, sweet, laid back and ever so cool as a cucumber. He is a hockey superstar and would love nothing more than for someone to love him for the person he is, not for the money, for the fame or the adoring fans. I just could not get enough of sexy Adam and wanted more, so much more. He is a hero that will positively make you swoon.
“God he was beautiful. I’ll-chisel-you-into-marble kinda beautiful. The kind of beautiful that should be displayed in museums for years to come. In a hundred years, people would marvel at the statue of him the way we did the Mona Lisa today.”
The sexual tension and chemistry was off the scales hot and even though both Poppy and Adam were two completely different people, they just worked. They were in the truest sense, opposites who were attracted to each other in the absolute hottest way.
While Four Day Fling is not the most original idea, Emma Hart did an amazing job writing a story that pulled me in from the get go and was simply a joy to read. Her writing and storytelling drew me in and kept me fully engaged throughout. I loved the characters and everything they brought to the story, the crazy family drama and of course the romance. If you are after your next read to be so much fun that you’ll finish the book with a gigantic smile on your face, then look no further than Four Day Fling to satisfy your romcom cravings. I have a feeling Adam will be melting many hearts around the world.

July 22, 2018No Rating/A 'Just-Not-Feeling-It' DNF
Poppy and Adam had a ONS after meeting in a bar. She needs date for her sister’s big wedding. He agrees. She doesn’t know he’s a pro athlete.
Full disclosure, there’s an author’s note at the beginning reaffirming it’s an unedited, unproofed ARC. Nothing uncommon there. But then it proceeds to request that reviewers skip over any mistakes (specified as “typos, incorrect words, misuse of words, and facts”). I generally don’t dwell on minor, infrequent, and inconsequential grammatical mistakes that a final proof will likely fix but “facts!!!” WTF? I had to wonder if that was another wording mistake.
I did quite a few double takes or rereads of paragraphs. In the first chapter alone, there were more unproofed sentences than there should be. My genuine advice to any author (and this comes from my years working in the publishing industry as well as studying composition and literature in college)—first impressions are important, and that first chapter can set the whole tone. Re-reading sentences and playing ‘what’s the missing word’ guessing games is distracting. And if I’m being honest about my reading experience, which is what every reviewer should do, then it’s only fair to mention how and why it kept me from engagement with the actual story. Aside from correcting grammatical mistakes in my head, I also kept trailing off pondering questions germane to the plot as I continued on past the first chapter.
Like why didn’t Adam clue her in? He seemed like a decent, laid back guy, and I got that he found it refreshing that Poppy didn’t recognize him nor was she attracted to him because of his celebrity status. But after he agreed to be her fake boyfriend for a long weekend family wedding, it made no sense that he didn’t inform her of his identity. Heck, they exchanged phone numbers but not last names?
Also, if Rosie and Mark have been high school sweethearts and have a 6 year old son together, why would Rosie say she didn’t feel bad leaving Mark with her parents at a pre-wedding event so he could get a “warm up” in what they were like? This dude has clearly known the family for years if he sired their elementary age grandkid, married yet or not.
And perhaps most importantly, why did all these adults let a woman old enough to be a grandmother dictate so much drama??? It’s contrived, perhaps, in many cases. For example, Poppy narrates that her sister is her mom’s favorite, and when Adam’s identity is revealed she fears her mother will accuse her of trying to upstage her sister’s wedding. But Poppy and Rosie appear to get along, Rosie being just as annoyed with her mother as Poppy. So why didn’t someone just tell the women to shove it? Or better yet, not invite her to the wedding!
And maybe they do give her the boot. (God I hope they do.) But it was 22% and I still wasn’t making a significant connection with the characters or feeling any substantial chemistry between the hero and heroine. I was also pretty meh on the whole ‘awkward’ theme. I don’t care for heroines who have been dumped on, have a history of embarrassments, or simply can’t stand up for themselves. It’s not endearing, and it feeds a culture of depicting women as the lesser sex—less confident, less capable…hell even unable to hold a conversation with a naked man she already had sex with or to choose a career based on her own interests rather than as a way to avoid or spite her mother.
On the plus side, the safety factor on this one seemed fine from the parts I read, and I think it had potential. It appears to be a light-hearted, upbeat romance, which I typically enjoy. This one just didn’t work for me. I finally decided to throw in the towel when I was losing interest and the story reminded me that I have an awesome family (hubs & kids) who deserve my attention more.

Four-day fling has popped up all over my radar lately and I'd already got high expectations before I opened the first page. I was a little nervous to read it but luckily it didn't disappoint. This is my first Emma Hart story but won't be my last.
Poppy is everything her family wishes she wasn't. She stands on her own two feet. She comes from money but has chosen her own path through life. She has an average job, she likes to party and she isn't afraid to make a fool of herself. The book starts with her waking up in bed with a man whose name she can't remember. She's debating her exit when he notices she's staring at him. Adam is calm and laid back. Her swift exit turns into breakfast and an invitation for Adam to be her plus one at her sister's wedding. Poppy's mother is overbearing and a pain in the butt. A fake boyfriend to her sister wedding is the perfect scenario but maybe Poppy should have gotten to know Adam a little better before her family met him.
The four-day fling is a classic story which has been told many times before but Emma Hart tells it well. Poppy has already slept with Adam so there are no awkward sleepovers. The chemistry is already there. They get on so well four days could be all it takes.
Poppy is a sassy chick and Adam is everything a girl dreams of. There are no cringe-worthy moments and the comedy keeps on following.
4.5 stars out of 5.

Great story!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In Four Day Fling, the author takes a familiar story line but gives us a sweet and delightful twist. A one night stand turns into a wacky, crazy weekend where the heart grows fonder against their better judgment.
We’re introduced to Poppy, who is by all accounts crazy. High maintenance and just rather wacky but she is better at managing life than her sister and her mother, if that means anything. But she tends to endear herself to us and I love how Adam can completely balance her emotions.
And this guy, Adam – what a saint. If it hadn’t been for growing up with four sisters, there’s no way he would survive the craziness in the story. He’s sweet and kind and you can just feel the connection that they have together, even though they tried to deny it.
Funny, wacky, sexy, along with all of the sweet heat and love we look for in this young adult rom-com. Emma has crafted a lighthearted and endearing story that leaves you begging for more.
It makes you wonder who’s next …

Si me hubiera dejado llevar por la portada o por la sinopsis de esta lectura puede que no le hubiera dado una oportunidad hasta dentro de un tiempo, sin embargo, lei tantas reseñas poniendo por las nubes esta novela que decidi adelantarla en mi lista y no esperar mas.
Poppy y Adam fueron mucho mas de lo que imaginaba cuando lei la sinopsis, su historia es alocada, fresca, divertida y con un toque distinto, me encanto sobre todo el aire tan despreocupado y ligero que tiene la novela, aqui no hay casi drama ni malentendidos, es simplemente un libro de Fake Relatioship que te deja con muy buenas vibraciones y con el que pasaras unas horas de lo mas entretenida.
Como ya digo la lectura no es de las mas profundas y transcendentales que encontraras pero engancha que da gusto y en ningun momento se vuelve aburrida, todo lo contrario, con cada nuevo capitulo ( y cada nueva aparicion de los familiares de Poppy ) se hace aun mas adictiva, literalmente la loca familia de ella me hizo llorar de la risa, especialmente su abuelo, fue un personaje hilarante.
Resumiendo, Four Day Fling es el libro perfecto para las que buscan un romance falso que no tenga un exceso de drama y si muchas escenas lindas. Ademas es de esas novelas que recomiendo para un momento triste o un poco negativo que todos tenemos de vez en cuando, te aseguro que te hara sonreir sin remedio.
Muy recomendable, la leere de nuevo durante este año.
4 Estrellas!!

Quizá soy yo o quizá es que tenía demasiadas expectativas tras leer algunas reseñas de gente de la que me fío, pero la verdad es que este libro ha supuesto una pequeña decepción para mí. Y mira que soy la reina del sarcasmo y me encantan los protagonistas masculinos deportistas y las protas femeninas con carácter, así como las familias locas y los fake romances, peeeeeeero en este caso me ha costado verle la gracia, entrar en la historia, creerme el romance y hasta entender los peros y la cabezoneria de Poppy (hasta para acostarse con alguien tan perfecto como Adam ponía pegas, pero muchacha!!!).
2,5 estrellas, pero redondeo hasta 3 porque Adam es un amor.

Siento que duré mil años para terminar.
No lo disfruté como yo hubiera querido, no culpo al libro culpo a mi resaca pero en general me gustó y creo que si hubiera estado en un mood decente me hubiera encantado más.
Es un fake romance muy divertido con personajes encantadores que te hacen pasar un buen momento.
Poppy no me gustó tanto porque en momentos me desesperaba cuando hablaba mucho y no se callaba y no voy a decir nada de su grumpy mood porque yo soy igual y me quejo por todo.
Adam en cambio me encantó era un amor, es lo mejor del libro por eso le voy a dar las 4 estrellas.
No lo disfruté como yo hubiera querido, no culpo al libro culpo a mi resaca pero en general me gustó y creo que si hubiera estado en un mood decente me hubiera encantado más.
Es un fake romance muy divertido con personajes encantadores que te hacen pasar un buen momento.

Move on from Noelle Bond!
It seems the author is stuck in regurgitating characters that are carbon copies of Noelle. I didn't mind the snark with Ms. Bond, but now it is tired and annoying.
Poppy is a brat, or quite frankly, another B word. She's not funny, not cute, she's absolutely mean and vicious.
What happened to the shy girl at the beginning? She practically begged Adam to help her, and do you think she was nice to him? Not at all. She didn't waste a second turning on him and being a B with her attitude. I wanted him to run! Get the heck away from the train wreck. The poor guy didn't even get the sex he was promised! The guy was clearly a masochist. The nightmare wants to runaway? Let her! She's an idiot, and awful, don't chase that! They were obviously on different maturity levels, which isn't a surprise considering she is 24 and he is nearly 29.
The wedding was ridiculous. Who let's their mother terrorize them like that?! There was not a single laugh in this tragedy.
The editing! Who did it? Fire them immediately. Missing words, wrong pronouns, British descriptors where this was clearly in America. The author renames (last) her H for half a chapter! So much of the dialogue was scattered, I had no idea what they were talking about.
A few things for the author to consider: 1) No more Harry Potter references. It does not need to be in every book. 2) All female characters do not need to be clumsy. 3). Please move on from the overly snarky Noelle Bond personas.
I'm not sure if I will pick up her next book, I've been disappointed by the last offerings.

This was a fun read. It was safe.
The heroine is awesome, I didn't get annoyed with her OTT sassiness, cause girl I get it, I need coffee to survive too. (She was an uber bitch in the morning but then so am I !!)
The hero was super cute and loyal. At first, both agreed to split after their fling was done but then the hero wanted to admit his feelings for her and I was fine with the fact that initially, she did not want to admit her feelings for him as she did not want to get hurt. I completely understand that, so she may not have admitted her feelings for him but she was not chicken shit, she did not physically run away. I don't know if you get what I'm saying but whatever, she stood her ground and I admired that.
Her family was funny AF, I loved her grandpa( horniest grandpa I've ever read about). She had an amazing relationship with her sister and best friend and even with her brother in law.
I liked the mom and daughter relationship, they are not at all affectionate towards each other but are super entertaining.
It's a good book to read, especially when you are in a book funk (AKA me). There was quite a lot of typos but I prefer typos over douchebag heroes and doormat heroines.
Also looking forward to her best friend Avery's story!!
H and H - 4.5/5
Secondary characters- 3.5/5

Emma Hart knows how to write a rom com.
August 29, 2018
I loved this book! I have a thing for funny books and this one was full of funny conversations, funny actions and more than that, a funny-hot guy!
Red and Adam were such a beautiful “fake” couple! I loved them. They were so perfect for each other. And their beginning... man :)) that was funny too. I mean... I don’t want to spoil it for other readers, but damn, I wish something like their story would happen to me too. Sometimes my family can be crazy too, so I totally understand why Poppy/Red needed a guy to pretend to be her boyfriend.
5 stars without a doubt! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Favourite quotes:
“He tasted of whiskey and coke, and he smelled like my next big mistake.”
“How could you miss someone after only a few days? It was meant to be a fling, nothing more and nothing less. Yet here I was, three weeks after said fling, with a severe case of feelings-itis.”

Quirky quick romance
Wedding Date's book hangover
I was totally into the fake boyfriend for wedding trope but not so much for this. This book was quirky and awkwardly humourous at times. I had give credit to the hilarious moments but not so much on the romance. The family drama was way too much and somewhat exaggerating.
Sadly, I was skimming through some sections of the book.

I just can’t get past the beginning of this story. It’s completely unbelievable. First of all, would you invite a one-night stand whose first name you can’t even remember—and not one single detail about you spent the night together—to spend four days out of town with you? The answer is no. Then, if you are trying to pretend to be in a relationship together, wouldn’t you at least find out some basic information about them — their last name and profession. for example? And if you are a professional hockey player, would you willingly put yourself in a position of being surrounded by diehard fans for an entire long weekend. If that wasn’t enough, the heroine’s mother is unrealistically over the top.Nope. Not buying it.

Now this was a Rom-Com!
AWWW this was so cute! I mean it was really over the top, with larger than life characters, but I smiled the whole time I was reading it, and really enjoyed myself! The plot was fun-one night stand turns into wedding date, which then turns into love 😍 😍 The characters were a lot of fun, and I loved Poppy's family! The wedding in this had a lot of things going wrong like another book I read recently, but whereas there was too many catastrophes in that one, this one was funny.
Poppy
I really liked Poppy! She was stubborn, feisty, quick witted and I appreciated her sarcasm. I personally use a lot of sarcasm, so related to her a lot! I LOVED her t-shirts! I really want some of the t-shirts that she wore in this! Poppy cant function without coffee in the morning, and I get that so much! She was a lot of fun, and had great banter with all of the people in her life, but I liked that we saw her insecure side too. I also liked that she gave her art a go at the end of the book. That was what she loved and was good at, so I'm pleased she chose to pursue that dream. I'm also so happy that Poppy had work colleagues, friends and family! So many women are don't have these in books, and it bugs me a lot!
Adam
Swoon! Adam was charming, sexy, cute with Poppy's family and with kids, honest, and did I say sexy?! He was so calm and laid back, he was the perfect partner for Poppy, as they balanced each other out. I loved his banter with Poppy, I thought they had great chemistry! I liked that he saw that she was the one holding all her family together, even though she saw herself as a disaster. They had a great connection, a lot of fun, and some tender moments too. Yeah and he was HAWT and pretty funny too.
I loved Poppy's dad, grandpa and sister! Her dad just went with the flow, but he was always there for her. Her grandpa was just hilarious! I love it when old people just don't give a fuck! Rosie and Poppy had a great relationship, sisters do fight and try and get one up on each other, I have one and it is true.
Now I couldn't give this 5* purely because of the lack of editing. It really bugged me! There were several spelling and punctuation mistakes, missing words, incorrect words, and in one scene Poppy's best friend Avery was going out to work, when Adam knocked at the door, but then it said she was going out to read and buy cake?! If this was all corrected, I would have probably given it
5⭐️ s! I know its only authors who are with the big publishing house who get lots of editors and proof readers, but I don't know, surely a good friend or someone, anyone could have read this and highlighted some of these errors?! Actually that is like my dream job ha! I used to proof read all my husband's essays when he was at uni!
I'm definitely going to read another Emma Hart book, as this was really fun! I can see this as a rom-com movie on like Netflix.....

This. Book. Was. Everything.
Cute, funny, adorable, gut wrenching but absolutely incredible.
As soon as I started I never wanted to put it down, I was hooked from the get go.
ARC received in exchange for an honest review
When I read the info on this book I knew it was a book I’d want to read, a book that piqued my curiosity and a book I knew I’d love.
Poppy and Adam are amazing. When a one night stand turns into a four day fling you never expect anything more than a fling but this book is so much more.
Poppy is a firecracker, she’s badass, she’s fierce and absolutely awesome. She isn’t afraid to say what she thinks of feels. She legit has no filter when it comes to speaking and that in turn is absolutely hilarious especially when she’s around Adam.
Adam..*sighs* what a man he is. He’s sexy, muscly, charming and absolutely adorable. He’s the complete opposite of Poppy which makes them work. He’s a gorgeous hockey star looking for someone that wants him for himself instead of what he’s got. I fell in love with this guy, hard. I just wish he had more chapters in this book, hearing his side of some parts of this book would have been funny.
Their chemistry is hot AF. Their sex, oh man, what a turn on, like I need to jump in a cold shower already kinda hot. Gahhh.
Emma Hart did amazing with these two characters and their story, I do love me some good family drama at weddings and damn, Emma made Poppy’s family incredible funny. I’m so sad that I’ve finished Four Day Fling I want to rewind and re read it all over again *sighs*

One of the most interesting heroine I read lately, she (like me) hates the world before breakfast and loves her space while sleeping. And the scene in the shower was hilarious! Aside from that the story didn't hold my attention enough to continue reading. The fourth time I try Emma Hart, still no luck!

3.5 stars rounded up to 4 stars!
I liked the heroine but I loved the hero.
The cover was beautiful also. The heroine's mother continuous nagging got me so irritated that I had literally skipped some of the pages when the mother appears. But can't complain can I? Because of her, this ridiculous fling had started.
I have to say again I just loved the hero. ❤️
And there was the epilogue, it was full of sweetness!

Such a fun read...
Loved it...
Poppy Dunn is a free spirited firecracker, stubborn, feisty and in total opposition from her family, especially her overcontrolling mother. She can't really get along with her a little bit over bearing family member, it's chaotic, it's hilarious and when her sister's four day wedding celebrations appraoches, she proposes an outrageously insane idea to her one-night stand, Adam Winters to be her "plus one" at this merry event, no strings attached, all payed, four day fling and pretense to get her mother's nagging off her back.
As propostrous as it sounds, Adam accepts...cause well, she's a feisty redhead and her liked her, so what's there to lose, but only gain and he happens to be free that weekend, so why the hell not?
the troubles begin as soon as she introduces Adam Winters to her family and they all become infatuated and stunned, cause Adam is non the less but the hero to them - cause Poppy's family is hockey crazy and Adam happens to be the main player for the home Orlando team, and somehow, Poppy being ignorant of all sports, whatsoever, happens to fall even deeper into the pretense relationship, slowly giving in to the natural sexual attraction to this guy...
but is it enough to start smth more?
Is it enough to start building smth more on the basis of pure chemistry?
and once they both give in to this tremendeous physical pull they have towards each other, the thin line of giving a chance to something more will be just a matter of when...
I have read Emma Hart's books some time ago and I had a pre-notion of what to expect. Her writing is fluent and effortless, light and funny. I had "laughing out loud" moments while reading this story and generally liked the fact that she didn't push the "insta love" as a solid thing, the characters went with the flow in the given situation and that felt as realistically as possible, considering the "toss in the hurricane" kinda surroundings LOL and then they slowly worked towards the possibility of something more...
However, I do have a remark on the editing process, it would have had a better impression if I didn't notice the faults in grammar and evident mistakes in wrongly naming the main characters :/ in the middle of the story, I just couldn't overlook this time...so, 4.5 stars, for the brilliance of the romantic comedy and lovable characters

Poppy Dunn, with her red hair and her brown eyes and her smartass mouth, was someone I could see myself falling for.

***5 ‘Not Today, Satan’ Stars***
This was such a fun, smexy read!
(one which was definitelyneeded after experiencing a few highly angsty ones)
I found myself laughing out loud, sometimes with simultaneously cringing, at the snarky and antics of the various unique and colorful characters and falling in love with Poppy and Adam as they found that the ‘fake’ in their relationship wasn’t as fake as they’d thought it would be.
Poppy is a force to be reckoned with. With little, to no edit button, she lets you know exactly how she feels whether it be verbal or not. She’s snarky and stubborn and has a tendency to appear put out when dealing with certain people, but beneath all of that is a heart that cares, and cares deeply whether she admits it or not.
Adam was such a sweetheart, and I know that for some that description lands right next to being called a ‘nice guy’ on the continuum, but he really is. I loved his honesty and how he rolled with the punches, because there were A LOT of them, as if they were normal. He has a laid back kind of alpha thing going on with his determination and honesty and his charm was absolutely lethal.
Poppy and Adam’s ‘fake’ relationship was so much fun. It really was. It was sweet, smexy and was low on angsty drama, though it had a few touches here and there that not only touched my heart but had me growling a little in frustration a time or two. The connection between Poppy and Adam definitely went against the ‘fake’ issues and I loved how honest they were with each other. Their bantering was fun and the smexy was HAWT and I loved where we left them in the end.
I’m a broken record but...this was a fun and easy to devour read. I obviously adored Poppy and Adam, but along with them, I ended up adoring the very well written and colorful cast of characters. They all kept me on my toes and had me cracking up with their antics while brining that family dynamic I love so much to vibrant, HD life. I can’t say I have an ultimate favorite, but grandpa and Rosie are definitely at the top of the list.
So, if you’re looking for a low angsty read with a cast of great characters and a lot of heart, then this is a must read!

"3,5 Red & Hockey Boy Stars"
I enjoyed this one and I laughed a lot!

Super fun read.
Four Day Fling was definitely one of those books that I bought without double checking to see what it was actually about. In the end, I enjoyed the heck out of this book and that is all thanks to the main characters.
Adam and Poppy were everything (at least to me). Although if I'm being completely honest.. I've had a shit ton of wine and I've been laughing at my dog trying to get crumbs out of an empty chip bag. Trust me.. it's entertainment. Other than that, I loved these two together. Even after their first awkward encounter, I shipped them. Heck, Poppy seems to be me because I'm completely awkward when it comes to the opposite sex. Totally my fault.. but hey, I love my life anyways.
Again, I loved these two. Poppy was one of those down to earth girls who didn't care about money or status. She loved just to love and trust me that was rare as fuck to find in her life. Her family made me laugh. Heck her relationship with her mom seemed so realistic with myself. It's probably why I enjoyed this book so much.
In the end, I'm glad that they became a real couple. Heck, even I knew that they stopped acting like it was fake. I honestly loved them together and if there was a second book (or if it was a series) I would totally dive into it.

In the end, I'm glad that they became a real couple. Heck, even I knew that they stopped acting like it was fake. I honestly loved them together and if there was a second book (or if it was a series) I would totally dive into it.

This book is one of the delightful surprises that came in my Bookworm Box. I never know what I'm going to get, but because the proceeds go to charitable organizations and help others I subscribe to it.
This book was totally fun to read, full of humor, and just a laid back easy read. I loved Poppy and her (fun) name. I like how she is able to be her own person and doesn't really care what others think. She "meets" Adam (you'll have to read the story to find out how) and she asks him to be her fake boyfriend and go to her sister's wedding with her to which he obliges her.
I guess I have to admit that this book does have predictability, but it's still oh so fun to read. Adam is dreamy, Poppy's mother is a pain, Poppy's sister is whacked out, and all the characters are still believable.
I hope you decided to read it because it's just to fun.
