The BRAND NEW laugh-out-loud, fake dating rom-com from MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER Portia MacIntosh! Perfect for fans of Christina Lauren, Abby Jimenez and Emily Henry

Don’t get mad, get Ethan!

Lana has had enough. Her ‘perfect’ sister is getting married. In Australia. On Lana’s 30th birthday and no one seems to have noticed. To make matters worse, she’s been given a list of rules she must follow so she doesn’t upstage the bride. Well, rules are meant to be bent right?

She’s found a killer dress, now she just needs the most inappropriate wedding date she can find. But where to start? All her attempts at online dating are simply disasters, and not in the right way! Too boring/married/easily intimidated! But then her drop dead gorgeous ex Ethan suddenly reappears in her life. With the power to make her dizzy with excitement she reminds herself why they broke up. Together they literally attracted chaos until their relationship imploded. They couldn’t make it work. But could Lana make this work in her favour… just for the wedding?

However, when they arrive in Australia Ethan seems to have forgotten he’s only there to help cause bedlam. Instead he’s off the charts charming, nothing like she remembers and not playing by her rules. She’s here for revenge, not a rekindled holiday romance… but Ethan has other ideas!

A laugh-out-loud fake dating romantic comedy from million-copy bestseller Portia MacIntosh.

Loved the plot

The narrator was perfect who had perfect reading! The stuffy family was hilarious_ it shows the differences how families view each other.

Fun read

Held my interest, read in 2 days. Funny, believable, making you feel like you were there with them First time reading this author, will definitely read another. Narrator was good, told the story but didn’t get in the way of it.

A wonderful read

Wonderful writing and so fun! I really enjoyed every one of her books that I have read! Her books are my vacation!

cute story,nice reader.

nice, easy listen. It was a cute story. Could have cleaned up the language a little

Favorite author narrator pair hit gold!

I look forward to January every year for a new book from Porsche, narrated by Karen. They are a dynamic duo. This story had me laughing out loud in chapter 1, and finishing the book in one day while putting away the Christmas decorations. Great story. Great narration. Can’t wait for a few more weeks until Porsche’s next book with Karen comes out.

The best

Love this author!!
Nice book with the funny moments!
I’ve heard all the books, the best!

The talent these women have!

Both Portia & Karen have such amazing talent. I can never get enough of these books. Thank you both so much for your work!

Great book

Loved the story! Very well written. Finished in 2 days before and after work. I love how the author makes you feel for the characters.

Fun love story

An easy listen that will have you laughing and cheering on the romantic interest. You will fall for the antics and wish there was an app just like they made.

Very Slow start to a happy ending

I enjoyed this audiobook but to be honest I almost put it “down” because of the slow start, however once you get into the last 57% of the book it gets really good… just the lead up was like “okay we get it, she’s struggling let’s move on already”
