Release Date: October 28
The last thing Callie Richardson expected was her debut romance novel, Ready to Fall, to top the charts. Nor did she think her readers would become obsessive over her book’s hero, Hudson Newman.
Life couldn’t get any stranger. But then her assistant announces that Hudson Newman wants to see her. She’s convinced her best friend is playing a joke on her, because no one in her office knows she’s written a book. Plus, the name is fictional, a mashup of famous actors.
So when the stunning man steps into her office, she thinks she must be dreaming. Except this Hudson Newman wears a scowl rather than a model-worthy smile. After confirming his name is in fact the same as her character’s, he proceeds to tell Callie that her book’s success has turned his orderly world upside down.
Not only that, but her readers have set out to make Hudson the hero of their hoped-for romances. After weeks of receiving gifts—from candy to lingerie to things that make Callie blush—Hudson has had enough and tells Callie she needs to get her overzealous fans off his back. He smiles smugly and gives her two choices—delist the book or date him.
That was the moment Callie found herself in a fake relationship with a real-life book boyfriend.
MY REVIEW
A week is long enough to be on the receiving end of attention from fans that aren't even his, so Hudson decides confronting the object of his misery is the right thing to do. He wasn't expecting to find the author that (gasp!) used his name in her debut romance novel to be so beautiful. And Callie certainly wasn't expecting a grumpy looking hottie to come into her office demanding she either delist her new novel, or pretend to be his girlfriend. And neither was expecting to fall in love. Unfortunately, Callie's got even more demons and fear than Hudson, so this pair will have a hard road ahead of them if they want one of those HEAs romances are so fond of.
This is a sweet story and I loved Hudson. I may have wanted to smack Callie a time or two at the end when she let her fear get the best of her, but I could see where she was coming from. She and Hudson are an adorable couple - I will definitely be on the lookout for more from this author now.
