Starting this tonight I was BLESSED to get the ARC yippee I am doin the Happy Dance I love @KristenAshley68 

I loved this book. I tell ya it was a lot of fluff but so freakin cute! The idea that Olivia was one of 4 kids and her parents, being traditional, wanted her married, was adorable. They all had a hand in setting her up with someone. She had a brother and two sisters who constantly tried to get her to go out with friends and associates. The reason for her wanting a husband was to have a nice time at her sister’s wedding. At her law firm is a big player named Brody O’Connor. She picks him because she “knows” she wont fall for him. Of course he is hot, dates, and is an all over catch, but Olivia pretends ignore that. So she asks him to go to Hawaii and pretend for a week they are married. He thinks of it and by the time he gets back to his office his Mother shows up. Clarice is sweet and a great Mother who wants her son to marry and have children with a well bred Connecticut woman. That is when he high tails it to Olivia’s office and says yes he will do it.

There is a little mystery when Olivia gets a few calls and strange text messages. Overall I liked it and the ending was perfect for me. I guess other reviews complained about plot and grammar. I guess someone fixed it because there was no issue for me. I don’t know where the author is, I tried twitter and facebook  so I only have the Amazon link. http://www.amazon.com/The-Rented-Husband-ebook

I had to add my quotes:
Then, for the first time tonight she looked at him, really looked at him.  She studied his strong jaw line and the high cheek bones that were a trait of his Native American ancestry, took in the dark lashes that framed his eyes and the cleanly shaven face that was remarkably more handsome that she had ever considered before.

She had always thought he was cute but in more of a play-boyish way rather than the maturity that she was seemingly viewing for the first time now.  He was down right sexy and as quickly as that thought entered her mind, she pushed it back out.

She jogged down the steps and made her way to the kitchen, skidding to a halt when she saw him.  He stood at the stove, with a spatula in one hand, wearing nothing but SpongeBob boxers.

I have read the other Sinner’s books. This one incorporated the Exodus crew so I liked that. It seemed like they were all evolving and growing up a little. Brian is still a dream boat to me! As usual Trey was there and this was his story. The way that it started with Reagan was a great spin. Trying out for the band in a “blind” audition was very NOW.They sort of happened quick. Reagan’s background is brought up and how she was a barista who was living with her bff (who happens to be gay) Ethan. Later on you find out that they were together once before and he is not gay but bi sexual.

When Exodus picks her everything changes and she is catapulted to stardom.Most of her story was different than the others career wise. She was only playing for three years and did not have any stage experience. Her road is a little tough being throw into something as big as this so fast. Their manager had a lot of conniving to do to get her to agree to a makeover. Within a few hours not only is she told you are “in” but for practice you are going with Trey (who she wants ooey gooey bad) to tour with the Sinners for two weeks before Exodus starts.

At this point Trey decides no more men. Then shockingly he decides Reagan is his girlfriend and announces it to everyone. This seems out of character for Trey. Trey loves his fellow band mate, Brian Sinclair. He has an experience ten years before with Brian and he has never gotten over it. Seems like everyone knows but nobody really says it out loud ever. When Brian and Myrna celebrate the birth of their child, Trey is there and agrees to be Godfather. Trey realizes that it’s never going to happen with Brian. Can’t go on for spoilers.

Whether you are heterosexual, gay or bi you need to wait at least more than an hour to want to sleep with someone. Wait scratch that! think it all you want, but wait. The entire build up with Ethan thinking Trey is hot was non existent to me. I think Trey is given a pass on being an asshole but Ethan? Well he should have to lick smelly monkey balls for cheating on Reagan first of all. Then for coming on to Trey, well he should have to go blow a monkey. I thought that was low. There has to be some little thing about a room mate and best friend that is sacred.

What I did not like: It was the story of the stalker . It was on the back burner and then it pops up front and center and it was sort of a non event. I love sex, ok I think the other stories were just great. This one was too much m/m for me. There were a lot of m/m scenes that were really explicit. I do think Reagan was and could have been that ONE.

But, I really loved Trey Mills because he was such a nice and ooey gooey sweet character. I am teetering between really liked it and liked it. I do want cherry lube though. I will definitely read the other books.
