Review: A Friendly Engagement

For this review, I chose A Friendly Engagement by Christine Warner, which is my first book by this author.

I received a copy of the ebook for a honest review of this book.

Here is a brief description from Goodreads:
Omar Esterly is married to his job. But when Omar sets his sights on a potential, family-oriented client, his confirmed bachelorhood becomes a problem. Fortunately, his friend and employee, Devi Boss, has the perfect plan…

Okay, so it wasn't exactly Devi's plan to become her friend's fake fiancĂ©e. Lies aren't her style. However, Omar offers her a big, beautiful raise—enough to track down the missing father she's never known—and Devi reluctantly agrees to the whole engagement hoax…

This was supposed to be a no-strings-attached win-win for both Devi and Omar, but when they cross the line between friendship and…well, something more, Devi realizes she’s made a huge mistake that just might cost her both job and friend—falling for her fiancĂ©.

I have been enjoying reading books from authors that are new to me.  This author is just that.  Very well written.  It flowed together very well.

Let's talk about the book now.  It offered a lot.  Romance, Conflict, Heartwarming, Chemistry, fake engagement!!  I laughed, cried, and my heart warmed a lot. 

Devi Boss works for a workaholic, who does not know how to have fun and enjoy life.  She is the Personal Assistant to Omar Esterly.  Devi is the opposite of her boss.  She  enjoys her life and willing to try anything once.  Omar is obsessed with getting this one account, which is family oriented and Omar is not.  Omar decides to get a fake fiance and Devi would be the perfect woman for the job.   

My favorite part of this book was the Grand Gesture at the end of the book.  I do not want to say much because I don't want to give anything away.  It was so sweet and romantic.

☆☆☆☆☆
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.
Would I recommend this book? Yes! Author? Yes!
Would I read more from this author? Yes!

Happy Reading!
