“I
need a ride,” I said to a sexy stranger on a Harley.
Three hours later? A six-foot-tall Marilyn Monroe was officiating our Vegas
wedding at the Happy Chapel.
But it’s not love—it’s business—a marriage pact made out of desperation so my
career doesn’t go up in flames.
Sure, Flynn Winslow is a hot, broody, mysterious man that women all over the
globe would sell their souls to land for real, but I have my eyes on the prize
and our marriage arrangement will end in three months with no strings attached.
Right?
Or will it all go out the window when I have to move in with Mr. Mysterious and
our fake marriage starts to feel remarkably real?
I wish it were as easy as telling myself, Do not fall in love
with your fake husband, Daisy, but apparently, when feelings get involved,
not everything that happens in Vegas knows how to stay in Vegas.
Don’t miss our reviews of the rest of the Winslow Brothers series!

Flynn
“Oh my gosh! I’m sorry!” A female voice grabs my attention, and I glance toward the entrance doors of the Wynn to find a blur of wild curls running like a banshee. She bumps into several people trying to get outside, and more apologies blurt from her lips as she almost takes out an older gentleman wearing a cowboy hat.
The man is none too pleased, but his annoyance doesn’t stop her. Out onto the pavement of the driveway, she stumbles a bit on her sky-high heels as she continues her fast-track path to who knows where.
She comes to a halting stop in the center of the entrance driveway, in the middle of cars and only a few feet from my bike, and looks around maniacally with her big green eyes.
What is she doing?
Her breaths come out in harsh pants, and she chaotically brushes pieces of her wild mane of curls out of her face.
“You okay?” I find myself asking, and she snaps her eyes toward mine.
She stares at me like I just asked her to solve an advanced calculus problem, and I lift the visor up on my helmet to repeat my question. “You okay?”
She shakes her head and digs her teeth into the meat of her full, red-painted lips. But just as she opens her mouth to respond, a man in a well-fitted suit comes bursting out of the entrance doors, yelling, “Daisy!”
The beautiful but possibly insane woman shuts her eyes on a heavy sigh, and by the sag in her shoulders and frown on her lips, I have a feeling she’s the Daisy he’s calling for.
“Daisy! Honey! Wait up!”
“Fuck,” she mutters, and it doesn’t take a genius to figure out Crazy Daisy wants nothing to do with this guy.
Maybe he’s the reason for her abrupt departure and reckless sprint out of the casino?
This guy could be her boyfriend. Fiancé. Husband. I don’t fucking know what. But whoever he is, she wants distance. That much is apparent.
And even though I’m supposed to meet my brothers at one of the Wynn’s bars in about ten minutes, the urge to help her is too strong to ignore.
It’s a rare thing for a guy like me, to be honest. I don’t meddle in other people’s shit, but the panicked look on her face makes me want to give her the escape she needs.
But before I know it, before I can even offer the help, she takes it for herself.
One leg over the seat of my bike and her arms around my waist, she leans into my back harshly and declares her intentions without pause. “I need a ride.”

Four Winslow brothers in Vegas for Jude's bachelor party weekend, what could go
wrong?
This is the second book in the Winslow Brothers series and is Flynn and Daisy's
story. It is filled with emotional scenes, it will have you laughing one minute
and crying the next.
Flynn is the more sensible one of the four brothers, he knows he is not getting
married, he is not made for it. When he sees Daisy at the slot machine, all that
changes. Well, that is at least for a short time. Daisy needs to be rescued and
Flynn is more than happy to help.
Daisy is the fun and sometimes crazy heroine, with her internal monologues,
hands waving in the air, and walking in circles to talk herself off the ledge,
not literally. When she meets Flynn, he is the calm she needs, they balance
each other out.
This story is fun, flirty, laugh-out-loud great, and in the end, it's perfect.
I cannot wait for the next brother's story.

This is the second book in the series, and you are in for a treat! I loved Jude
and Sophie's story, but I may have liked Flynn and Daisy's even more. The set-up
is just so perfect, and the romance so absolutely engaging, funny, and super
sexy – especially for two people together on a pact.
I would recommend that you do as recommended by the authors and read this in a
quiet and private space – they are certainly right that it is funny, but more
than that, it is so engaging that once you start you will not want to be
interrupted. I read it cover to cover today!
We get plenty of the whole Winslow clan, with the single brothers being just as
zany as ever – Ty really is hilarious. Flynn – the silent one – finally has
good reason to speak, and thanks to Daisy, we learn quite a lot more about him.
I loved his honesty, which members of his family just didn't believe. And his
niece once again provides a lot of humour... be warned. I cannot say more, as I
think you need to enjoy it directly.
Another fabulous story and a great addition to the series – that fortune-teller
has a pretty good strike rate so far!

Flynn is the quiet one of the rowdy group of brothers. He is serious all of the
time and takes the time to make sure that his brothers don't make too big of
oafs of themselves. When he sees a beautiful woman playing the slots, she
sticks with him.
Daisy is working and living her best life until a mix up causes her to make the
most spur of the moment decision of her life! Daisy is hilarious with her runaway
mouth, crazy internal monologue, and sweet demeanor.
Flynn and Daisy have off-the-charts chemistry and they burn up the sheets. But
they also have the ability to truly see each other. Not just their outer
personality, but who they are underneath that. It was fun to watch Flynn discover
a different side of himself and to get to see Daisy open his eyes to what he
was missing.
Daisy and Flynn complement each other so well. Flynn is the calm to Daisy's
storm and in return, Daisy lights up Flynn's life in a way he never knew he was
missing. Sure, he's got a crazy family, but Daisy is a breath of fresh air for
him.
I can't wait to see who comes next in this crazy family. You'll fall in love
with them, and I highly suggest you read the books in order!
