The Boyfriend Experience by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde

Evie was dating a guy named Eric that cheated on her. She needs a date to take to a family reunion so she doesn't have to tell her family she's single. Her friend tells her about an app, still in testing, that she can find a boyfriend on. Eric's friend put him on the app without his knowledge. Evie picks him because she told her family her boyfriend's name, and she thinks he is very attractive. They meet and hit it off. He says yes about going with her.
The scenes at the reunion are hilarious because of her parents careers, and matter-of-fact views about sex. We meet her ex Graham who cheated on her with, and is now engaged to, her witchy cousin Raquel.
Awesome story, I love the books written from this author duo. Cannot wait for more from them!

Ink by Numbers by Carrie Ann Ryan

Kaylee is the artist who does Brushes with Lushes from some of the previous books. Landon is her best friend. They tried dating then realized they were better as friends. Kaylee was married to please her family but divorced him since he liked his secretary. The sexual tension between these two just jumps off the pages. I practically had to throw the book into water to cool it down ! They are practically dating without the physical part. They spend a lot of nights together, eating dinner, just spending time together. But then they get to the physical part again and again.
Short, sweet to the point book, wanted it to be a full length book, but it was good, a lot happened in the book.
Can't wait for more Montgomery's.
The next release is Breaking Without You.
I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.
