This book had been all over my news feed on Goodreads and let's be honest ... the cover caught my attention. Guys aren't the only ones that appreciate a pretty hot body. Dude. He's hot. Whew. Anyway, so of course, I needed to jump on this bandwagon and see what everyone was talking about.It was better than I ever could have imagined. The main character, Spencer, is cocky and conceited and so damn crass. I ... LOVED IT. I found his inappropriateness to be hilarious and honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if most guys felt the way that Spencer does.There are a lot of readers that were completely turned off by how this main character behaved. Some called him a douchebag (which he is), some said he was fake (I didn't get that one at all), some said the book was horrible and had no plot (these people are obviously dead inside). Here's the deal ... they're all right. How people feel about a book can be totally different from one person to the next. And that's okay. If you are easily offended, this is not the book for you. This dude talks about his junk like it should be knighted and maybe have a monument dedicated to it. If you don't mind the occasional f-bomb and a guy waxing poetic about his manly playground, then you should give this book a shot.I was really surprised by the humor! I was rolling as I read this book. Not literally but it could have happened because I read this in one sitting without getting up and my legs kept falling asleep. I just loved everything about how Spencer behaved and how Charlotte reacted to him. Charlotte was absolutely awesome. I loved her. The chemistry between these two was exciting to experience and I really wish that this was part of a series about them because I couldn't get enough of their back and forth. Plus ... Spencer. Le sigh. You know how things are so ugly that they begin to look cute? Spencer was such a cocky bastard that he started to look like a sweet guy with a potty mouth that was misunderstood.Basically, the story kept me entertained. I loved every single word of this book and I can't wait to see what else Lauren Blakely has up her sleeve. I hope it's another book written from a male POV because she is a total badass at it. Love!! It will be a long time before I forget about it so I can read it again.

Spencer is the ultimate playboy and has to rein in his ladies charm while he tries to support a business deal for his father. He can tame himself for a week or so, no problem - or is that just him being cocky!? He thinks he has the genius plan to mold into the "good guy" persona to make it all work.Charlotte is his best friend and business partner. They have each others back. Well, now that takes on a whole new meaning. Can it be temporary? Can they go back? How will all of this pan out?Without a doubt, this was a two thumbs up, squeal with excitement, 5 STAR incredible rom-com! That's right, yet another book that is blessed with wit, sex, relations and all the feel goods. Lauren Blakely takes on writing such incredible books and I instantly fell in love with Spencer's story.This can be read as a standalone, absolutely. BUT, I would highly recommend reading them in order because they pick up beautifully with neighboring stories within family and friends. I thoroughly enjoyed getting the insight of all the characters. AMAZING!

Where to begin????I have to say this my friend is the best book of the year and my absolute most favorite book by Lauren Blakely.I also have to admit from the beginning when I first heard about this book and that she wrote it from Spencer's POV...that I was a little skeptical because some would say a woman can't write from a man's POV...but my friend Lauren Blakely blew everyone out of the water by doing just this.The way she gave us the blunt non filter version was spot on. Spencer and Charlotte are PERFECT together.At the beginning of this book it goes on how they are best friends who are joint owners of a bar and that they are extremely close and would do absolutely anything for each other. This book gives you a true insight of just that. Charlotte coming to his rescue in this book showed just how much she really cared for him when they neither one wanted to admit their feelings went beyond friendship. Their motto was that they would do this "relationship/engagement" for one week no strings attached, no weirdness etc and would return back to being friends.....but what they didn't realize was that this would bring out things they neither one could imagine and got more than just being best friends out of the deal. Lauren was spot on with their chemistry and all the fun, sexy, sweet, and crazy things made this book a top 2016 read and it's just January. Lauren you are absolutely an incredible writer and this just shows that you have so much to offer us readers by giving us both a woman's POV and a man's and make it incredibly interesting and on the edge of your seat .......A MUST READ!!!!
