The first of the Cane Brothers series, A Not So Meet Cute has Lottie meeting the handsome billionaire Huxley Cane on a walk when she decides she’s on a mission to catch a wealthy man to make her ex-best friend and most recently ex-boss jealous. Huxley desperately needs a fake fiancée when he convinces an important potential client that he is a relatable and caring man to land a big deal for his family’s real estate firm. As Lottie and Huxley literally bump into each other, Huxley propositions Lottie with a mansion to stay in, new clothes and money in exchange for her to act as his partner on double dates with the important client. 

This story was hysterically funny. The mishaps and situations Lottie and Huxley found themselves in were ridiculous but had me laughing out loud. There were super steamy moments along with tender exchanges between the protagonists. I especially enjoyed the banter between the brothers.

The narrators were absolutely superb and only enhanced the story even more for me.

Thank you Bloom Books for the gifted copy. Thoughts expressed in this review are my own.
