Playboy. Jokester. Uncle Jakey. Bro.
Living in this small town my whole life means everyone knows my name. The one title I never expected to take on?
Husband.
My father’s will is clear: the only way I’ll ever see my inheritance is if I get married. I never cared about the money. I cringe at the thought of letting him manipulate me from the grave.
But now I’m short on time, out of options, and desperate for cash.
Cue the wedding bells.
The only reason I’m moving forward with this crazy idea is because I’ve figured out a way to unlock my inheritance while also raising the middle finger to my father’s legacy.
See, there’s something Joe Whitely’s narrow-minded bigotry never counted on: times have changed. Laws have changed. Getting married doesn’t mean I have to find a wife like he so desperately wanted.
In fact, I’m determined to do the opposite.
I just have to find myself a man, convince him to marry me, and pop my relationship cherry.
Because that’s the catch: I’ve been with plenty of men. And women. But I’ve never been in a committed relationship.
Husband.
I guess I better get used to hearing it, saying it, and figuring out what the hell it means if this plan is going to work.

This is the first book I have read by Abby. I really enjoyed
this book. It is the second book in this series and connected to Abby’s Hampton
Hearts Series. I have not read the first book in this series. I didn’t realize there
was another book when I started this book. Jake has the chance of a lifetime to
finally by a business owner of not one but two restaurants. The thing is he
would need his inheritance his father left him and to get he would have to get
married. But he has an idea about how to get his inheritance and defy it at the
same time. He will marry a man. Cory finds himself in an impossible situation.
He has just lost his funding for college and has no idea what he is going to
do. Then Jake offers him a way forward. Marry him and help Jake out and
himself. This book was a great read. Jake is a playboy for sure. He likes men
and women. His childhood left him never wanting to commit to anyone. Who knew
that his father’s demand would change his life so much and that he would
actually enjoy the change? The two characters from the other series this one
connects with play a big part of this book as well. Great job Abby. I loved these
characters. I have the first book in this series and can’t wait to read it.
