A wedding. A playboy. And a week he’ll make sure she never forgets.
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 unpredictably. There’s no way they’ll last beyond the week, and Kinni’s going to make sure of it…
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.
To say that Kinni Corbet is a methodical and detail-oriented organizer is an understatement. Others might call her a control freak or anal retentive, but she loves logic and order so helping her friend plan her wedding is right up her alley. Except that the bride thinks that she needs to relax and have some fun. Enter Price Lyons.
Price has had a thing for Kinni for quite some time but Kinni doesn’t seem inclined to consider him as anything more than an acquaintance. After overhearing the bride’s demand for Kinni to have fun, he decides it’s in his best interest to show her how to, especially because it will get him closer to her.
I enjoyed Kinni and Price because they balanced each other. Price’s carefree and outgoing personality was a challenge for Kinni but was exactly what she needed to loosen her up. He knew just how to maneuver her into giving him what he wanted: to spend more time with her, but she was no pushover.
I really liked the easy progression of their relationship from friendship to hot passion, with little drama. The glimpses into their backgrounds were not what I expected but it’s obvious that they have shaped who they are as adults.
If you’re looking for a fun, quick read, then RANDOM ACTS OF MARRIAGE is one book to check out.
