So Jake makes Emma a proposition to shake off her prim-and-proper image: for a month, they'll pretend to have a steamy affair! All she has to do is trade tailored suits for scandalous public clinches!
Emma's out of her depth—and things quickly get passionate in private as well as in public. Soon the girl-next-door is wishing the month of mistress make-believe will never end…. What begins as calculated elevator touches soon spins into fiery encounters. One wicked smile, and every sensible rule goes right out the window!

3.5 stars — There were parts of this story that I loved, but I will admit I became frustrated with both Emma and Jake for holding on to preconceptions for so long. But at the same time, they felt pretty real — their flaws were easy to see, easy to connect with, and while I wanted them to grow faster, I felt like the growth made sense and would be sustainable. Which is a lot more than I expected to say about a Harlequin. So while they frustrated me as individuals a lot, I actually really loved them as a couple — especially when they were having fun and flirting and just loving being together. So yeah, it was a bit of a mixed bag. Some great stuff, but it balanced on that edge of being too frustrating.
