Tracey Livesay continues her fun-filled Girls Trip series with this romance that will tug at your heartstrings.
Sometimes faking it can lead to the real thing...

Driven and focused, Dr. Nicole Allen is an accomplished surgeon. With a tough past, Nic's gone above and beyond everyone's expectations. But when she disciplines an intern—a powerful donor's son—a prestigious fellowship she's awaiting is placed in jeopardy.

Coming from a successful family who runs a medical business empire, Benjamin Reed Van Mont is the black sheep, having chosen to start his own business instead. Though he's not ready to settle down, he knows when the time comes it definitely won't be with a workaholic doctor like his friend Nic—even if she's had him re-examining his edict...more than once.

When Ben's status-climbing ex-girlfriend finds her way back into his orbit, Nic proposes a swap of services. She'll spend the week with Ben on Martha's Vineyard, pretending to be his girlfriend—but only if he'll have his family intervene on her behalf so she won't lose her fellowship. How hard can the charade be?

But as they're about to discover, they've sorely underestimated their true feelings for each other...

      Narrator Chandra Skyye's decadent voice brings flair and sensuality to what starts as a fake relationship between two high-achieving roommates--with years of unresolved tension--as they embark on a Martha's Vineyard getaway. Skyye's performance transitions smoothly from businesslike to playful when Nic, a surgeon, agrees to be her roommate Ben's fake girlfriend after he helps save her career from disaster. Skyye nails Nic's easy confidence; her voice has a low, smoky quality that heats up the nonstop flirting between the couple. There is also plenty of room in her performance for softness as the reserved Ben learns to stand up for himself with Nic's help. This audiobook is perfect for those looking for a romantic getaway delivered by a vivacious narrator. J.E.C. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine

      Starred review from June 15, 2020
      Friends surrender to their desires during a scenic getaway in Livesay’s outstanding second Girls Trip romance (after Sweet Talkin’ Lover). Financial planner Benjamin Van Mont is smitten with surgeon Nicole Allen from the moment she shows up to rent his downstairs apartment. But, after being raised by two renowned but work-addicted physicians who paid him no attention, he’s promised himself never to get involved with a doctor. That works fine for Nicole, whose own childhood being raised by a single mother forced to work several jobs after Nicole’s father abandoned them left her determined never to sacrifice her career for a man. The pair ignore their mutual attraction and strike up a friendship. When one of Nicole’s disgruntled intern’s powerful family puts her at risk of losing her fellowship, Ben asks his parents to put in a good word. To show her gratitude, Nicole agrees to pretend to be Ben’s girlfriend on a vacation to Martha’s Vineyard to keep his demanding ex at bay—but can their relationship withstand the ruse? Nicole and Ben are both passionate and ambitious, and Nicole’s fiery temperament is balanced by Ben’s calming nature. The steady pace, smooth progression from friends to lovers, and natural, witty dialogue make this a winner. Readers will be wowed. Agent: Nalini Akolekar, Spencerhill Assoc.
