About this ebook

Wild child Jade Easler has never met a dick she didn’t like, but there’s only been one she thought about keeping. And now he’s back in town...right after she’s slept with charming Hollywood up-and-comer, Dean Hartley. The fastest way to get her ex’s attention? Show up on the arm of a sexy younger man. She just hopes Dean is up for the task of fake boyfriend...

When he hooked up with his beautifully curvy photographer, Dean thought he’d only get the one night she promised. But when she needs help convincing a former flame she’s ready to settle down, who is he to argue? He’ll get to show her—in as many ways as possible—that giving up crazy, hot sex for a stale, predictable life isn’t what she wants. And prove that what she needs is him.

Ratings and reviews

Not a favorite of mine but overall a pretty good read. It's well written and has some strong characters. Myself, I just couldn't warm up to these characters, especially Jade. I found her to be a bit obnoxious and couldn't see why a handsome younger successful guy like Dean would be interested in her. There was obviously great sexual chemistry between Jade and Dean but other than that I didn't think they worked that well together.

Bright lights, big city ...love triangle? Julie Particka is known for her sexy stories. Though Playing the Perfect Boyfriend does not lack for heat, it is abundant in laughs and tackles some serious stereotyping. For instance, I thought it was great that the woman was not getting played as much as she was pulling the strings. Usually, it's the opposite. I also liked the hint of younger man, older woman. Another stereotype that is usually the other way around. I received Playing the Perfect Boyfriend in exchange for an honest review. It's not rocket science, it's great entertainment.

About the author

Julie Particka was told to get serious about her future in junior high. Several years after getting a bachelor’s degree in chemistry, she realized being serious was overrated and went back to her rst love—writing. Now rather than spending her days in the drudgery of the lab or teaching science to high school students, she disappears into worlds of her own creation where monsters sometimes roam, but true love still conquers all.

She can most often be located in the Detroit area with her favorite minions (the ones who know her as Mom) where she is currently hatching a plot for world domination. It involves cookies for everyone, so she’s pretty sure there’s no way it can fail...except the minions keep eating the cookies.
