Best way to get rid of an evil ex? Snag a gorgeous heartbreaker, plan our wedding, and let the small-town gossip fly. What could possibly go wrong?<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Free in KU<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Just when I\u2019m about to inherit my family\u2019s winery, the one I\u2019ve dreamed of bringing to life, my old-fashioned parents throw a wrench in my plans. Convinced I can\u2019t succeed without a man\u2019s business savvy, they make my ex my partner.<\/p>\n Now there\u2019s only one way out\u2026 get married\u2014to anyone but him.<\/p>\n When Dash Corbett rescues me with a pretend kiss in a cowboy bar, we devise a one-year plan that will help us both. Makeover Dash\u2019s reputation and fulfill my parent\u2019s antiquated expectations. Win-win.<\/p>\n Falling for my fake fianc\u00e9? Not a chance.<\/p>\n Dash might have a distractingly hot exterior, but he\u2019s a reputed playboy\u2013and I\u2019m done with men who don\u2019t walk the talk. But then I do something stupid. And dangerous. I get to know him.<\/p>\n Beneath the surface, he has vineyard dreams and a cinnamon roll heart. He\u2019s the first man to see beyond my social butterfly exterior. And when he touches me, I melt into a puddle of wine, a vintage that forgot it was supposed to be sophisticated.<\/p>\n Soon our pretend relationship feels like forever. Especially with the possessive way he says \u201cmy wife,\u201d making me believe our lie.<\/p>\n Falling for Dash could ruin more than my wine country dreams. But what if I love him truly?<\/p>\n Love You Truly is a standalone, small-town romance in the Buttercup Hill series, where the wine is chilled and the men are hot.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Add to Goodreads<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 3.5 stars<\/b><\/p>\n The third book in the Buttercup Hill series<\/i>, this is a sweetly romantic fake relationship\/marriage of convenience romance with a gorgeous hero and a heartfelt love story, and I really enjoyed this one.<\/p>\n Dash works with his siblings running his family\u2019s vineyard. Each book is about a different sibling, and though there is obviously character crossover, you can read this one as a standalone.<\/p>\n Dash is the young, cute brother with an undeserved reputation for being a player and, working in HR, he doesn\u2019t really feel like he contributes as much to the business as his brothers and sisters do. Mallory is about to inherit her family\u2019s vineyard, and she\u2019s desperate to take control and prove herself, except her ex-husband keeps getting in the way. When he confronts her in a bar, Dash comes to her rescue, pretending to be her fianc\u00e9, and it sparks an idea. If they marry, it means Mallory can legally keep her ex out of her business, and in return, she\u2019ll provide the grapes for Dash\u2019s winery. It also means that Dash can get rid of the nasty reputation he\u2019s held for years, so it\u2019s a win-win. Of course, to truly sell it, they have to make it look real, and that\u2019s where the fun comes in.<\/p>\n \u201cBy the end of tonight, everyone here will know we\u2019re dating.\u201d Dash and Mallory are so freaking cute together! Though they both know it\u2019s not real, there are real feelings there, and as they put on a very convincing show for the town, their attraction is irresistible, and it\u2019s all kinds of steamy.<\/p>\n Dash kisses me like he\u2019s on a mission to save himself before the end of the world, and I\u2019m his only hope. And all too quickly, everything is changing.<\/p>\n Maybe, just maybe, she\u2019s feeling something for me. And as much as that kind of terrifies me because this is business, a bigger part of me wants her to feel it. I want her to feel what I can\u2019t deny I feel.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n It\u2019s such a sweet romance. Though they don\u2019t admit it to each other, they fall easily, naturally and hopelessly for each other, and their interactions and flirty touches suddenly have so much more meaning. As they come to terms with their feelings, they do have some things to figure out \u2013 emotional issues which test their relationship and their feelings for each other \u2013 but I enjoyed the character development as they learn to trust each other, and watching them work through it to get their happy ending.<\/p>\n Though it all, it was Dash who owned my heart as a man completely smitten, and I loved his playful, caring and sweet-hearted nature. And he even had me squeeing out loud with the epic line\u2026<\/p>\n \u201cGet your goddamn hands off my wife.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Eeek! I love it!<\/p>\n This is a great read, and I\u2019m looking forward to continuing on with the series.<\/p>\n 3.5 stars.<\/p>\n An Advanced Review Copy was generously provided by the author for an honest review.<\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Love You More (#1)<\/strong> (Jackson & Ruby) Love You Anyway (#2) <\/strong>(Colin & PJ) Love You Truly (#3) <\/strong>(Dash & Mallory) Love You Too (#4) <\/strong>(Ren & Beatrix) Love You Always (#5)<\/strong> (Archer & Ella) <\/p>\n I can\u2019t sit still, so when I\u2019m not hiking, biking or running, I\u2019m playing a very average game of tennis. Background music for writing undoubtedly features some U2, Lizzo, Billy Joel, Pink, Taylor Swift, and Led Zeppelin. Not necessarily in that order.

It\u2019s a rough world out there, and we all sometimes need a good, romantic beach read, even if we can\u2019t make it to the beach. I\u2019ve spent many lazy days walking the streets of Paris and other gorgeous European cities, and if I\u2019m doing it right, I\u2019m bringing you a dash of romance and a vacay fantasy.<\/p>\n
