Of all the weddings in all the world, Angie Roux had to be mistaken for a bridesmaid in this one.
Caledon, South Africa, is supposed to be just a stop on the way to Christmas in Cape Town, part of Angie’s long-avoided homecoming. She never expected to star in a bizarre comedy of errors, but here she is: convincing a handsome stranger to be her fake boyfriend for the day.
Ezra Johnson, the handsome stranger in question, turns out to be a pleasant distraction from both the wedding and thoughts of her first family Christmas without her father. And he seems to loathe weddings just as much as she does. He’s the perfect temporary companion.
But a lot can happen in twenty-four hours. Including a connection so strong it tempts them both into thinking of something more permanent…
One-click with confidence. This title is part of the Carina Press Romance Promise : all the romance you’re looking for with an HEA/HFN. It’s a promise!

My Review 3 STARS
**My thanks to the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**
This story takes mainly takes place over a period of 24 hours and i really wanted to like this one more, but to be honest it seemed such a long 24 hours before anything happened other than them just talking and hashing out their pasts with a stranger.
Both Ezra and Angie have a past that they are going home to face, but after talking to each other they come out with more realisations and home truths than they expected along with a connection to someone that they have never felt before in more than the physical.
There is a lot of emotional talk and reflection within each others lives a few comedic moments and an interfering old man that pops up when not wanted, and then turns out he's quite sweet.
It's a good read if you like the emotional talk, but certainly not if you want lots of action and things going on, its more of a very slow burn.
