About this eBook

Fake date. Real trouble. Fall for a new trope-tactic, fake dating rom-com read from USA Today bestselling author, Lila Monroe! 

Playboy bachelor Dash (aka Phineas Henry Dashford IV) needs to settle down, and fast - at least that’s what his eccentric grandmother thinks. And since she’s the one controlling his trust fund, he needs the perfect fake date to impress her. Someone sweet, demure, charming… and definitely NOT like the spitfire who almost pulled him in front of a subway train and then dressed him down in front of a million viral video viewers. 

Wannabe lipstick mogul, Callie Delgado, needs to find an investor for her makeup line - before her meagre savings run out. Playing girlfriend to a rich trust fund guy ? It’s absolutely NOT in her plans, no matter how handsome he is… Until Dash offers to invest in her company in exchange for getting grandma Zelda off his case. 

One weekend of (fake) romantic bliss? The challenge is simple. The chemistry between them isn’t. 

Soon, Callie and Dash are caught up in the act of a lifetime - and the sparks are anything but make-believe. Can these opposites find a way to attract? Or will a week in Palm Beach, a scheming ex, and a frisky alligator be the formula for trouble?

Find out in the new romantic comedy, perfect for fans of Ali Hazelwood, Sophie Kinsella, Jasmine Guillory, Christina Lauren, and Tessa Bailey!

Ratings and reviews

Phineas Henry Dashford IV aka Dash Dashford lives off his boyish charm, his trust fund, investments, and doing whatever he wants, until Grandma Zelda cuts him off. She wants him to grow up and settle down. Callie Delgado has spent every waking moment and every spare cent she has trying to get her makeup line off the ground. Callie is a spitfire with heart and ambition. She is honest and hard working. She also has a certain charm of her own. Callie and Dash clash at the subway station and things do not go so well. Now, Callie has to start all over with her samples and Dash owes her big time. Dash needs a fake girlfriend and Callie needs everything. I am sure you see where this is going. Let the games begin! Did I mention that Dash and Callie have a certain zing whenever they are together? Yeah, there is definitely chemistry. A lighthearted fun rom-com by one of my favorite authors. This book is sure to keep you entertained on the beach or at home in a cozy spot. I so recommend it!

4.5 stars Renegade Roomie is a fake relationship story that will send you on a crazy ride. Dash’s trust fund has been taken away from his grandmother and he needs to show her he can settle down. He meets Callie in a rather strange way but the arrangement these two forge is really quite something. Honestly I was laughing at the funny moments and the way Dash and Callie get to know each other is entertaining at best. She sees a different side of him and when neither of them are supposed to catch feelings, what happens, do they talk it out or go their separate ways. Dash’s grandma is a hoot, she may be hard on Dash but she cares, although he doesn’t quite see it that way. Callie has a dream and it could become a reality with Dash’s help…. This book has it all, fun, witty banter, steamy moments and just a great read that will make you fall in love with the characters. An enjoyable read for sure!

As with all of Lila Monroe’s books, this one is packed with witty dialogue, chemistry-perfect couple, and a smidge of redemption. Dash and Callie are the most wonderful “fake couple” : she helps him with his grandmother and trust fund while he helps her with her make-up line to get it off the ground. Not only do we have confident and cocky male lead, but also strong independent women that are relatable. Pick up this must read!
