Happy Friday!
Halleluiah! Our family vacation has finally been agreed on and booked. I didn’t think it would happen. The dates kept changing. The location kept changing. I kept screaming my usual mantra involving my in-laws…”Not my monkeys. Not my circus.” I do this like a chant of protection until they finally agree on something. So the deposit has finally been put down and now it is time to start picking my beach reads.
I think it is time for us all to start accumulating our summer reading. This week I have a fun fake-dating theme. You know I am a sucker for those.

It turns out that a fake relationship is the perfect recipe for a love that sizzles hotter than Santa Barbara’s spiciest salsa–when it’s between enemies….
Enrique Montez, smooth-talking heir to the Taco King empire, is man enough to admit that he made a critical error when he underestimated Carolina Flores. The agricultural hotshot should have been an easy conquest–who would turn down the chance to partner with California’s largest fast-food chain? But instead of signing her name on the dotted line, Carolina has Enrique eating out of the palm of her hand, and when fate steps in with an unexpected opportunity, Enrique is willing to do whatever it takes to capture her heart.
Growing up as the daughter of farmworkers, Carolina spent her youth picking strawberries in the fields of Santa Maria and vowing to improve the lives of people like her parents. Now, as one of only a few Latina farm owners, she has no time for romance and she’s certainly not about to let the notorious Montez brother anywhere near her business–even if just being near Enrique makes her skin tingle.
But she is willing to let him help get her overinvolved family off her back. When Carolina’s father and her lovelorn sisters mistake Enrique for her (nonexistent) boyfriend, she reluctantly agrees to a series of pretend dates to their town’s traditional Mexican-American holiday celebrations. Soon the fake feelings turn real and both Carolina and Enrique must convince each other to take a chance on love before their vacation romance is over.
I enjoy our family gatherings, but finding dates that everyone can agree on is a major hassle.
fun
Yeah for family vacations and fake dating books!
