This sassy romance duo have teamed up to bring you a sexy, fun and hilarious new series. You’ll love these hot-as-sin Billionaires…Down Under ;)

Logan Skye.
Drop-dead gorgeous and knows it, shameless playboy and confirmed bachelor, heir to a luxury hotel empire.
He has everything a man could want: fast cars, faster women, more money than God.
It’s all about to be taken away from him thanks to a pesky little clause in his late father’s will.

That is…unless he gets married.

I’m Talia Rose, heir to a stack of debts and broken dreams, hiding from my past in the land down under. I am everything except a doting fiancée: Feisty. Stubborn. And determined to hate all men.
Including Logan.

Especially Logan.

Imagine my surprise when Logan makes me the proposal of the century.

All we have to do is to fake a whirlwind courtship, fool everyone that we’re desperately in love and get married in less than thirty days. Never mind he’s the most arrogant, annoying asshole I’ve ever met. I just have to ignore the electric, hateful, lusty sparks that fly when we’re together and focus on the big fat payday that will solve all my problems. I just have to NOT fall in love.

Piece of (wedding) cake. Right?


If you’re not into smirky, cheeky billionaires and the sassy, independent gal he can’t help falling for, don’t read this book.

If you’re not into flamboyantly fabulous bosses, outrageous won’t-take-no-for-an-answer sisters and a butler with more back-chat than shock jock radio, you definitely shouldn’t read this book.

We warned you.

This was a fun read! A most enjoyable story of two opposites attract, and all the sparks and fireworks that come with it.
I really liked the characters, especially Talia and her no-nonsense attitude. I enjoyed the 'richer than god' playboy Logan and him floundering around Talia not knowing how to handle her. I loved how she unwittingly helped him find his pride and strength.
This was one of those stories where the characters pulled me in and the story has enough going on to keep you involved. There are some interesting other characters in this book that I hope we will hear more from.
This was a fun, thoroughly enjoyable read with strong characters, a solid story-line and enough sass and chemistry and spark to have me looking forward to the next books from these authors.

I’m not sure what I loved more, the writing style that has you drawn in from the first sarcastic quips; the characters that fit and don’t fit at the same time; or all the walls being torn down! He needs to keep his billions and she just needs to pay the bills. She will never fall in love again and he’s ok with that. Are they telling themselves and their hearts the truth or will they risks more than they bargained for? Logan and Talia’s story is that wonderful fairy tale escape that allows you to fall in love with them individually and as a “couple” even though it’s all fake. Right?! This one is going on my “will read again” shelf.

Amazing!! Hot!! Must read!!
Ok I have a huge book hangover. I could not put this book down. I loved how we were introduced to Logan and Talia. Logan who inherited the family hotel empire. But in order to keep said empire there was a clause put into the will. Talia, thanks to her ex, had lots of debt and heart ache. How these two meet and the way Logan tries to "proposition" her was quite entertaining. I enjoyed the banter back and forth between these two. The chemistry was off the charts HOT! This was an amazing page turner you won't want to miss.

Fun and enjoyable reading for this first book from Ms Blake and Ms Willows.

The characters have great personalities and are very endearing.
Lots of great romance and chemistry between them and a couple of excellent secondary characters that I can’t wait to see in their own books.

Maybe even Lane the Butler too, a silver Fox if ever I read one.
I eagerly look forward to reading more from these two authors.

Sass, Spunk, and Beauty all wrapped up in a package laden with debt she didn't incur. That's Talia Rose, recently arrived from the States to Australia, hoping to hide from all the debt her ex took out in her name. Logan Skye; Rich Playboy, Hotel Heir, and No Ambition, suddenly finds out he has to marry before his 30th birthday which is in 30 days. When Logan meets Talia at a club, miscommunication sends Talia into a tailspin and she insults him, causing herself to look bad and get fired!

Nobody says "No" to Logan and that makes him want Talia more! He's never had to work for a woman before either, it's new territory for him.
The dance these two do, the witty banter, the slow burn, I was waiting with bated breathe for the fire to ignite from all the sparks that were flying off them! It was riveting!

This book kept me glued to my kindle, forsaking all others lol! I bet you will, too! So grab this now!

Over the top Logan Skye, too much money and too much time on his hands. Talia, not enough money, not enough friends, not enough jobs. She's desperate and she reacts like a wild cat when Logan offers a business deal, after he has done something unforgiveable. I absolutely love the sarcastic comebacks from Talia and Logan is totally out of his element with Talia. No one has ever challenged him before. Loved Bunberry, Loved Lane, Loved Claire, and, oh and Miguel!! Totally got it when she had "to spin" at her new job. This book made me smile quite a bit at different times. It was hot, with a bit of suspense and a whining woman that you just wanted to strangle.

I voluntarily reviewed this book.

ARC review...

If richer than God Billionaires tickles your fancy, then this will warm your heart.
Australian Billionaire, Logan Skye has to fulfill a clause in his, father's will or he loses his inheritance.
A beautiful feel good book that will have you smiling as he finds the perfect 'fake' girlfriend to help him. Can they stick to their contract and NOT fall in love? You'll have to get the book to find out how it ends.
Beautifully written by two wonderful authors. Well done ladies!!

I love finding new authors! This was an easy find as one of my favorite authors paired up with Sarah Willows in this super fun read!

To Have and To Hoax follows Logan and Talia, two people who don't want to fall in love but end up together for different reasons.

I was definitely not disappointed in these two. Talia is a spunky, stubborn girl and Logan is wild, with a secret soft side. Be prepared for heat and fireworks when these two are together.

This story was co written with Sienna Blake. I have read everything by Sienna and I found myself trying to figure out which chapters were written by her. I think I figured it out, but it wasn't easy, which speaks to the writing skill of Sarah. While Sarah is new to me, I didn't feel like I was reading an author who was new. If that makes sense.

Awesome story, awesome collaboration. Can't wait for the next book in the series!

Logan is a playboy billionaire, and the reluctant CEO of Skye Hotels. He just found out that if he doesn't marry by his 30th birthday, in 31 days, he loses his shares of the company, and everything that comes with it. Talia is a woman who has been burned by a man before, so badly she moved halfway across the world to get away from him. She'll never fall in love. Logan decides she is perfect, as he only wants a business arrangement for a marriage. It takes him a minute, but he convinces her to join him.
Logan is so much more than he thinks he is, and Talia just needs a hand up. They are perfect for each other, and their HEA is so sweet. This book was a great way to escape for an afternoon. I definitely recommend it!

Once I picked up this book I couldn’t put it down! Logan and Talia are an amazing duo that complement each other perfectly. I love how Talia doesn’t take anything from Logan and puts him in his place at times! This is a great start to a new series and I can’t wait for the next book! All of the characters you meet are fun and amazing and I really hope they each get there happily ever after!

Logan is a playboy at heart, and avoids responsibilities at all cost. But does he really? When his father dies, he is to inherit the business that he has avoided running. But now he must marry by his 30th birthday to keep his inheritance. This is something he has always thought would never be something for him. Talia has been rebuilding her life after an ex leaves her with massive debts to repay. She loses her job after an encounter with Logan. He feels Bad about what happened and sees an opportunity to get his bride and help her out. Can they work together? I liked this cute, short read that draws you in. The characters come to life and I liked how Talia challenges Logan, it’s the push he needs.

Received this as an ARC. this was a voluntary review.

First off, I love Sienna's books and I am so excited about this series. And now with Sarah Willows, I have a new author to fall in love with.
Now for the book!
I LOVE Logan! He is the picture perfect example of a playboy billionaire. The first chapter had me rolling (naked and hiding in a closet, my kind of guy. Hahaha)
Talia is his perfect match, even if they are extreme opposites and don't like each other (we all know where this is headed ;) Heehee)
The dynamic between these two characters is off the charts! Of course we get our HEA, but the ride along the way is fun and entertaining and will keep you glued to your kindle until you get to the last page.
I can't wait to see where Sienna and Sarah take us next.

I really enjoyed this book.

I laughed so hard I cried at times.

This is a quick funny romance story. With a happy ever after to boot.

The only reason for a star deduction is.

It felt to much like instalove for me. Together for 30 days and fall madly in love with each other. Also the FMC stubbornness got on my nerves a bit.

But was a great book and I look forward to the next one.

I really enjoyed this fun romantic comedy. The characters have big personalities with sass and arrogance along with steamy hot chemistry. Two people who have sworn off love agree to an arranged marriage to help both of them out of a jam. Secondary characters were fabulous too!
Looking forward to book 2 in the series, The Paw-fect Mix-up releasing March 8th!

This was a fun quirky cute debut for SW and SB together.

Funny banter between two endearing characters who both swear off falling in love. But that’s the thing with love, the more you resist it the faster it can sweep in and create a whirlwind of beat laid plans.

Loved this read and look forward to many more from this combo of storytellers.

Finally... A funny, light-hearted Marriage of Convenience that doesn’t make readers cringe! Kudos to the authors for their amazing writing style!

Logan (a good-for-nothing Billionaire MW) has to be in a life-long committed relationship within a month or he’ll lose everything he has. Instead of choosing one of the million girls who are dying to marry him, he obviously propositions a stranger because he overhears her saying that she is done with love! Since neither of them love each other, they can easily get divorced after a year... Rrrrright!

Talia was pretty awesome in they way she handled Logan... her independent streak was impressive, considering how committed she was to her work, even after marrying a billionaire!

Logan was the kind of guy a sensible heroine Dumps at the start of a book, right before she meets the good guy. However, he did show a lot of development as the book progressed and I found myself rooting for him towards the end!

The secondary characters like Lane, Shell, Miguel and Claire were awesome! Logan’s friends, James and Rhys, were as douchey as him!

Dual POV

Safety - No Cheating, but...
1. Unfortunately, the book begins with a morning-after scene as Logan has his valet get rid of last night’s nameless hook up... Hours later, he’s with someone else. All this is before he meets the h.

2. Later, Talia finds a scantily dressed woman at Logan’s when she comes over to accept his proposition; Logan throws her out and tells Talia that the OW was neither invited nor wanted... nothing happened.

3. After freaking out, Logan decides to have strippers, drugs and booze at his Bachelor’s party but later confesses that he sat in a corner moping all evening)

Very small OM drama... Lots of OW drama but Logan isn’t interested at all

No Separation

HEA with an Epilogue... (I would have liked more though)

Talia and Logan were a great couple. I automatically liked their dynamic. She was sharp tongued, witty and could hold her own. He wasn’t used to having women not fawn all over him or fight him. It was great. FroM their first interaction I like Talia. She was firstly and prideful which needed up costing her job. He was cocky and acted like the world revolved around him because his did. Then he had to marry someone in 30 days to keep his company and lifestyle. Their chemistry was their from the very start but I enjoyed how it grew into a real love. The way he cared for her and did things for her showed his true feelings. The wedding scene was dramatic and added to the drama of the book. One of my complaints on the book was the ending. 2 major problems get resolved in like 1 (maybe 2) chapters and it just made it feel a little rushed.

I loved reading this book. Set in Sydney, I enjoyed reading a story set in the city I live in. Even more I really liked Talia's character, she doesn't take crap from others and knows the respect she deserves. Logan comes across as an arrogant playboy at the beginning but we see a considerate, caring guy underneath the facade. I loved that he helped give her an opportunity to attain her dream job, and she helped him realise his full potential career wise. Whilst the book is shorter than most other books I've read recently, and the development of their relationship just over 30 days seems a bit too short, I really enjoyed the story, from the sarcasm and banter at the beginning, to the sweetness at the end. I really look forward to reading more about the friends and family in this story as well, as I'm sure this is not the last we've heard from this lovely bunch of characters.

I was pulled into the story from the first page. Talia was a fabulous character and when throwing a drink in Logan's face was priceless. The banter between the two of them was wonderful and funny. I loved their bickering and how they managed to get close in a sort time.

The evil characters were perfectly devious and Amelia played her part perfectly as a very spoiled and entitled rich girl. She was a bit over the top and was determined to get her way.

Lane was very supportive and you couldn't help but love him I'm glad how the story ended for him. Karma also hit at the end in a lovely fashion. I was surprise though the currency used at the end was a Euro instead of an AUD

The story moved quickly and had plenty of steam but not enough to detract from the story.

I really liked the plot of this book but I found several grammar issues throughout the book and I got this from Kindle Unlimited so it was the official manuscript and I felt like there were so many plot holes and skipped parts. It felt rushed. Kinda like how you turn a book into a movie and you just can’t fit everything in. There is a one bed scene but there is only a chapter about what happens when going to bed not waking up. The waking up scene from a one bed scenario is where the awkward feelings come in and it wasn’t even addressed. This happens multiple times throughout the book and it leaves an unsatisfied feeling after reading. It is a quick read with good plot ideas but didn’t have the follow through I was expecting.

A light easy funny romance.
I loved the enemies to lovers vibe and the chemistry between Logan and talia had me giggling.
A lot of the interactions made me genuinely lol and the story although mostly predictable was enjoyable and it was predictable In the right way. Like I knew where it was going but I didn’t know how it would yet there and there was a few surprises in there.
The characters where stereotypes and there was a few typos and minor errors but not as bad as you sometimes get. The dialogue felt natural although the plot at times was a little cliche
Overall great for a light easy romcom read and free on KU

Billionaire hero and fiesty lady

Classic trope, but nicely done. I would have loved to read more about Logan's thoughts after Talia tells him to work in his company. We get a glimpse of what he thinks when he's talking to Lane. But I was looking forward to read more about his transformation.

I was also glad to see him go to Talia immediately after the church fiasco. I was afraid he might be swayed to think that Talia was at fault about her ex. But he did believe in her, and that was heart-warming.

A big thank you to Mr. Lane and Mr. Bunberry too. Was 'earnestly' delighted to read about Bunberry. 😁 I hope he's doing well and Logan doesn't need him ever again.

Good for a quick read and a little-to-no-angst ridden story. Girl swears off love due to experience. Guy is a spoiled moneybags who lives off his money. Guy (Logan) has to get married to keep his money & overhears girl (Talia) say she’ll never fall in love. A little back and forth between her agreeing to marry him. Logan plays his part, buying things for Talia & showing her around for publicity. Their partnership leads to other things. Wedding is scheduled. Surprising blip comes up. Since this is a guaranteed HEA, it eventually happens. It was a cute story and Logan and Talia were fun to read about. Yes, I’m heading to the next book in the series, because I liked the characters.

OMGosh so much better than I thought it would be.

This book was such a fun and entertaining read. I just loved Talia and all her sass. Logan was just too cute in is lost little ways. Together they made such a fun pair and cannot wait to see what they get up to next.

James and She’ll need their own story. I will be reading the next in this series.

What I found great about this book was the way the writer kept it simple and real. The mannerisms, the way they spoke to each other and their playfulness. The supporting cast of characters where just icing on the story cake.

Great book!

I absolutely loved this book! Story was sweet and funny. I loved the characters! Talia was a sweet girl who married a con man who took all her money, charged all her credit cards to the max, then left. She tan away to Australia to start a new life. Logan was a playboy with a butler who had raised him and more a father to him. What happens after is fun stuff and great laughs!

A great book!

What an interesting book. Rich, play boy (Logan) didn't work just spent money like water. Talia, went to Australia to get away from her ex-boyfriend who took her to the edge of bankruptcy. He needs a wife, she needs a job and security. You know what follows next. Oh, you don't know. Read the book it's really good. Thanks for such good entertainment. Written by Cindy :)

Fake to real and everything inbetween

This was such a cute love story, you could actually read when they started to fall in love, i love that, it was really well written, all the characters had a part to play even the awful Amelia, oh how much did i hate her? i cant say i hate Gerard even though he did what he did but looking at it, i would say he did because Amelia his daughter WANTED Logan and whatever the princess wants the princess gets, Talia and Logan forever.
