An excellent fun quick read. A friends to lovers story that made me laugh, swoon, and sigh.
Dean Grayson can't believe it when his cousin asks him to bring someone with him to the destination wedding the family is attending. Why? To keep Dean's hound dog ways to a minimum. To comply he asks his best friend Carly Jensen along. Nothing safer than your best friend, right??
I highly recommend this one.
this is a well written quick read (it's short). My issue is that Dean is Carly's employer. While they may indeed be best friends, I would have preferred that this "fake" romantic relationship start differently. An employer, friend or not, is always in a position of power over an employee.
Dean Grayson is one of those men that every girl’s mother warned them about, a bit of a player and known for his commitment issues. When Dean’s cousin asks him to see if he can bring a date to his upcoming wedding in Mexico so he won’t be tempted by his fiancee’s friends and family and cause drama Dean questions his dating choices.
Carly Jensen works for Dean at his bar and while she thinks Dean is on the good looking side she knows of his reputation and wouldn’t want to ruin their friendship and working relationship. But when Dean is in need of a “date” for the wedding Carly finds herself flying off to Mexico. Unfortunately for Carly her ex has also been invited and to avoid his pity she pretends she and Dean are really a couple and Dean decides this would be a good idea to continue for the week.
Until the Sun Sets is the third book in the Graysons series by Tara Wyatt. The book is novella length and it wouldn’t be necessary to have read the previous books in the series to enjoy this story. As with most romance series the couples have changed in the story but there are mentions of previous characters.
I think really for me it’s always a fun idea to read of a couple that are friends but for one reason or another end up pretending they are in a relationship with that growing into something more. Dean and Carly had a previous friendship so especially in a novella it makes the story more believable while moving at a faster pace. I would say that I would have liked this that much more if it were a tad longer but that’s the novella curse there, sometimes ending a little too quickly.
I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley.
Until The Sun Sets is the third novella in The Graysons series, it was a new quick and enjoyable read for me.
Carlie is Dean's employee, they worked together for two years and became friends at the same time, so when Dean has to fly to Mexico for his cousin's wedding and needs a partner to prove he isn't a playboy the best solution is to ask her to go with him.
I loved to read Carlie and Dean journey and the developping of their relationship,even if this was a short novella I closed this book feeling pleased.
This is my favorite kind of book. The kind where friends become something more and then wonder how they did not know it would be that good. Makes me smile every time.
Dean is a confirmed bachelor, they are the ones that fall the hardest. Once they wake up to what's in front of them that is. Where Carly can't wait to find that forever man.
While Until the Sun Sets, is a novella it leaves nothing out.
