Timothy Janovsky - Böcker

'This was such a fun read and I was completely obsessed with the characters and the game show aspect.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazon reviewer'I absolutely adored this book!' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazon reviewer'It's such a fun read with lots of giggles and spice.' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazon reviewer Ready. Set. Faux. Things are not going well for Holden James. His chance to audition for his favourite game show, Madcap Market, should have been great – a tribute to his mum, who died six years ago. Instead, he’s destroying the minibar in a grim hotel room…recently dumped and sliding into misery.But at least he has room service. It even comes with a sexy (smart-ass) concierge who arrives with pizza, Monopoly, and rather distracting forearms.All Holden knows about Leo Min is that he’s beautiful, unexpectedly sympathetic, and the chemistry between them is off the charts. Maybe it’s even enough to convince the show’s casting directors that they’re a real couple. And if they can win the competition and the huge cash prize, all of Holden’s problems – his broken heart, buried grief, and complete lack of money and direction – will be solved.Of course, nothing ever works out as planned. And love is an entirely different game…– Perfect for fans of: Male-male romance ❤️Fake dating 🤫Spice 🌶️ Praise for Timothy Janovsky: 'A fake-dating romance with great character backstory and a genuinely surprising twist.

A rom-com perfect for fans of Casey McQuiston's The Pairing!'Such a beautiful and gentle romance. Recommended for any lover of sweet yet spicy mm romances' Reader review Could they be a perfect pairing? Julien Boire can’t wait to get out of his small town. Soon he’ll be leaving to take an advanced wine course that will put him on track to become a master sommelier. He can’t let anything distract him, especially the hot new hire at his aunt and uncle’s restaurant.It should be easy – Julien and TikTok mixologist Greg Harlow could not be more different. One thing they do have in common: neither wants a relationship. They agree to a no-strings sex pact. Nothing is off-limits. Except a future.It’s exactly how Julien wants it. Except for the little part of him that wonders if maybe he’s about to lose the kind of happy that could last much longer than an hour… Perfect for fans of: Workplace romance 🍷Opposites attract ❤️Spice 🌶️ Praise for Timothy Janovsky: 'Janovsky…has a real flair for delivering sensually descriptive love scenes with steam to spare and a gift for crafting characters with whom readers can readily connect.'
