Aton & Ashley: The Logic Behind the Date Was Thin. Nevertheless, They Worked!

Even though the reason need for the fake date was pretty thin, this story worked.

Aton is a very successful businessman who has made his own way int he world due to a schism between him and his parents. When his brother announces he's getting married, Aton needs to find a date ASAP to avoid the fallout from his mother, who is overly critical of the fact that he has not yet married. Enter: Ashley, a sassy waitress who just found out that her mom has cancer and needs a surgery to aid in saving her life. Ashley turns to a dating agency to work as an escort to raise money for her mother's surgery.

Aton grew on my because I really didn't care for him much until he dropped some of his walls. Ashley was a joy from the very beginning and I enjoyed her candor. They really made a good couple once they lowered their inhibitions. However, the plot was very weak and stretched very thin. It was truly the characters performances that saved this book. I love Weston Parker's books but that needed a stronger reason to support the need for Aton to need an escort. Still, a good read.

Happy reading!
