About this ebook

Juno

When I'm late for a job interview and get stuck on an elevator with an annoyingly sexy, Ancient Rome-obsessed grump, the last thing I expect is for him to be the billionaire owner of the building. I also don't expect to almost kill him… accidentally, of course.

Sure, I don't get the plant care position I applied for, but I do receive an interesting offer.

Lucius needs to trick the public (and his grandma) into thinking he's in a relationship, and I need tuition money to get my botany degree. Our arrangement is mutually beneficial—that is, until I start catching feelings.

If being a cactus lover has taught me anything, it’s that if you get too close, there's a good chance you'll end up hurt.

Lucius

Post-elevator incident, I'm left with three things: my favorite water bottle full of pee, a life threatening allergic reaction, and paparazzi photos of my “girlfriend” and I that make my Gram the happiest woman alive.

Naturally, my next step is to blackmail—I mean, convince—this (admittedly cute) girl to pretend to date me. That way, my grandma stays happy, and as a bonus, I can keep the gold diggers at bay.

Unfortunately, my arch nemesis, a.k.a. biology, kicks in, and the whole "not getting physical" part of our agreement becomes increasingly hard to abide by. Worse yet, the longer I'm with Juno, the more my delicately crafted icy exterior melts away.

If I'm not careful, Juno will tear down my walls completely.

Ratings and reviews

You either love Misha Bell or you’re wrong. Her characters are always so fun and quirky. Juno and Lucius are no different. Juno is so quirky and interesting. She’s the sunshine that grumpy billionaire Lucius never knew he needed. Their chemistry is instant and super steamy. The story is well-written, and the characters are well-developed. It is such a fun story line full of laugh out loud romcom uniqueness. It’s also very sweet and heartwarming. The perfect amount of steam, romance, and comedy.

Really loved this romantic comedy i was giggling most of the way throughout the story. Loved it from the beginning to the end from when Juno and Lucius first meet right through to when they reach their happily ever after. Loved both the main characters who were just amazing,funny and sweet.Loved the family the pets and the plants😁. A feel good romance very highly reccomend.,cannot wait for the next one!. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Each time Misha Bell comes out with a new book, I think they can't possibly make it any funnier than the last book. But Lucius and Juno top the cake by far. That elevator scene to open the story just proves that it's possible to make the absolute funniest and most awkward meet cutes into absolute hilarity. I seriously laughed so hard I cried reading this book, and also had to stop to catch a breathe multiple times. LOVED this story, and it was just what I needed to reset my brain. Everyone needs a good laugh while falling in love. Please note that I did receive an ARC of this book and the opinions expressed in this review are my own.

About the author

We love writing humor (often the inappropriate kind), happy endings (both kinds), and characters quirky enough to be called oddballs (because… balls).
