Kinni Corbet is the perfect bridesmaid. She’s efficient and has a to-do list for every occasion. When the bride-to-be adds “relax and have some fun” to Kinni’s schedule, Price Lyons seems to tick all the right boxes. He’s guaranteed fun, and it’s only for one week—what can it hurt?
Playboy hotel owner Price Lyons has wanted to break down Kinni’s walls for years. Her plan to relax for a whole week is the perfect opportunity to get to the one person he’s never been able to charm. And this time, she seems…receptive to his advances. Unexpected, but he’ll take it.
There’s just one problem. Kinni’s allergic to spontaneity, and the only thing predictable about Price is his unpredictability. There’s no way they’ll last beyond the week, and Kinni’s going to make sure of it…

"Funny and riddled with clever banter and dialogue." -Becky Burciaga, Goodreads review

Well, this was a fun read that left me chuckling a lot! The opposites attract story can be so much fun when done right and I think that Ms. Brux did that here. It was entertaining and lighthearted, and definitely an improvement over the previous book in terms of the characters as well as the story.

This was a delightful read. I was surprised at how down to earth the characters were, once you got to really know them. The entire friends circle was more like a little family. It felt homey, real a welcoming.

Well opposites attract or is that a balance of yin and yang... Well it fits Price and Kinni. She's OCD about everything in her life. It's great for your home and professional life but not so good on the personal side so her best friend challenged her to say YES.... to fun and relaxati ...more
I went into this one unsure of if I was going to like it or not because I felt like I read a similar story before, but I ended up enjoying this one a lot.

What a wonderful surprise this charming story became. What I'd thought to be just another RomCom, turned out to be funny and riddled with clever banter and dialogue.

There is both light cursing (but NO f-bombs) and explicit on-screen sex in this one. If those things will cause you to leave a bad review, you should skip this one.

It’s so very easy to only see the surface of a person’s life and believe that you know everything you need to know about them to make a judgement call. That so often leads to misunderstandings and the loss of getting to know someone amazing based on their surface. Our co ...more

'Random Acts of Marriage' was...okay for me but I found the characters a bit...well, not to my taste. They just weren't what I wanted them to be, and I guess that really brought down the overall rating for me
