About this ebook

Stats whiz Kayla Moriarity knows her way around numbers and algorithms. Men, on the other hand, are unsolvable equations. Now Kayla's en route to her sister's wedding—without the fictional boyfriend she invented for her family. Fortunately, her plane comes complete with complimentary cocktails and a ridiculously hot former Marine in the seat beside her. And that's all it takes for Kayla's inhibitions to go sailing out the airlock...

Cooper Shillings has soft spot for people in trouble, but he certainly wasn't expecting to land in it himself—and definitely not while getting naughty mid-air with a sexy southern belle. When he hears Kayla's predicament, however, he offers his services as a stand-in boyfriend. After all, he's heading overseas soon...and how could he refuse a little no-strings wickedness?

It's the perfect plan. And all Kayla has to do is ensure her family falls for the ultimate bluff, without falling for it—and Cooper—in the process...

Ratings and reviews

This story starts with Kayla and Cooper meeting in an airport. That's not very unusual but then he exchanges his ticket for first class - the seat beside her - and helps her through the flight because of her terror of flying. Things heat up on the plane then he goes to her hotel with her for a night of passion. Kayla wanted to stop her parents from worrying about her being single so she made up a boyfriend to get them off her back. But when she goes home for her sister's wedding, she has to make up another lie to explain why he's not with her. She told Cooper about her problem and since he has a few days before he needs to be at his new job he suggests being her fake boyfriend for her sister's wedding. Both of them like the idea because they each prefer to be on their own, neither wanting a relationship. A temporary fake relationship is perfect. Temporarily Yours is a very hot story with this couple falling into insta-lust as soon as they meet and can't get enough of each other over the few days they are together. Cooper is a buff ex-marine so who can blame Kayla for wanting him. Kayla is confident and beautiful if a bit quirky with her knowledge of random statistics for everything. If you like steamy romances then you should read this fun story.

It was good but i didn't like the whole wedding part. He came looking for her and the speech he did in front of the wedding party. It's so common in alot of the novels and even in movies. The rest of the story was good though.

Characters were so quirky, the sex was hot, and story line felt rwal. I hate flying wish I could find a Cooper!!!!
