Publisher's Summary

Spencer Cohen is the guy who gets answers to relationship questions. Playing the role of the new lover, his job is to make his client's ex realize one of two things: he doesn't want to break up or he really does. Either way, his client gets answers.

The ex would either apologize and beg, or turn and walk. But in the end, Spencer's client won. If he wanted his ex back and got him, it was great. If the guy walked away, then as hard it was for the client, he knew it was over. Regardless of the outcome, Spencer's work was done.

Andrew Landon's ex left him without so much as an explanation. But his sister can't stand to see him miserable, so, much to Andrew's dismay, they hire Spencer to be Andrew's new boyfriend to get the ex back.

For Spencer, it is never personal. Merely a business transaction. No emotions, no strings, no complications. Yeah right. Even a blind man could see how this would end.

Contains mature themes.

Really enjoyed this series

I love many of N.R Walker's books and I had been avoiding reading or listening to these ones. I am not entirely sure why maybe because the covers didn't appeal to me but I read this book and it was great. If you are hesitating for whatever reason just give this series ago.

Not great

This was pretty disappointing I must admit. The plot was very basic when compared to books in the same genre (i.e. books by Mary Calmes). the characters were sort of likeable, but it was strange to realise the N R Walker doesn't know the meaning of the words abstract and redundant, 2 words used in the book at some point that were in direct contradiction to what was being said. It would have also been good to try and come up with different adjectives rather than the incessant "stupid", this is particularly so towards the end of the book.

I must admit that what bothered me the most though was Leslie's performance. I had read such great reviews on his narration, that against better judgment, decided to purchase the audio book without properly listening to the sample first.... big mistake. Leslie does good voices and the accents were ok, but seriously the out of breath, "chest pressured" reading was truly unbearable.

I actually find this particularly difficult to describe, but it was as if the book was being read after Leslie had gone for a run and was trying to catch his breath. It genuinely made anxious (lol, maybe i'm just particularly sensitive!!) After the first 15mins I had to listen to the rest of the book in 2x speed, just so I didn't notice the struggling-for-air reading.

Sadly I do not recommend this book.
