Mackenzie worked for Ethan O'Connor as one of his sales people. He had branches in Los Angeles where she worked, also New York and London. Mackenzie was his best sales person in any of the branches. She didn't socialize or participate in office gossip. She focused on her job. She also knew every time Ethan came to visit the company. The women would run to get all fixed up for him and drool. His nickname was 'Mr. Charming'. All women would fall all over themselves for him. All except Mackenzie. She said whatever she thought and didn't drool. She would actually make snarky comments and get away with it because Ethan knew she was the best sales person he had. Both of them dearly loved to push each others' buttons.Ethan had just ended yet another relationship where the girl fell in love with him and had hinted at marriage. He did not want to get married. As soon as they started talking wedding bells...he ended the relationships. This time it got nasty. His exes started giving gossip to the newspaper about their experiences with him. He knew he had to put a stop to it, so he called a press conference, and told them he was engaged to a woman who had put him off for 5 years (the only woman he knew who would never be interested in getting married to him).,..Mackenzie. He just had to get past her anger to carry this off, especially after making it a public announcement during the press conference without her prior knowledge or consent. He knew how to get to her. Money or a challenge. He offered her 1 million to pretend to be his fiance for 6 weeks, then she could break it off and go her own way.She thought he was insane. They could barely stand each other, but for a million dollars she thought she could put up with it for six weeks...if she didn't kill him first.This was a hilarious, delightful funny read from page one. The antagonism between these two characters was so funny, you'll be holding your sides. I have never enjoyed a book more. The hot, spicy romance between these two just might cause a short circuit. Throw in a potential mother in law who hates you just because you are engaged to her son, and it gets even better. You don't want to miss this story.
