Hers for the weekend

Hers for the weekend

Helena Greer

Book - 2024

"No-nonsense lawyer Tara Sloane Chadwick is perfectly fine with going to her ex's wedding--the break-up was congenial, and Tara is nothing if not well-mannered. But after one too many reminders of her dismal dating track, Tara panics when asked if she'll need a plus-one and declares she's bringing her new girlfriend. One issue: Tara is seriously single. Thankfully, Holly, the waitress she's been crushing on, happily offers to be her fake date . . . Only Holly's offer isn't quite selfless-she's been lusting over Tara for ages, but Tara only dates women she can marry. And Holly has no interest in settling down with anyone or in any one place. A temporary arrangement is the perfect solution: Holly and Ta...ra can enjoy a no-strings fling for the wedding and part ways after. However, between sharing kisses and hotel beds and cuddling under the mistletoe, Tara begins to dream of a life with Holly in Charleston . . . just as Holly starts wishing she could travel with Tara by her side. Soon, neither can see a future without the other, but can they find a path forward where they both can thrive?"--

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

A woman recruits a fake girlfriend to bring to her ex's Christmas wedding in this paint-by-numbers romance from Greer (For Never & Always). When high-powered lawyer Tara Chadwick receives an invitation to her ex-fiancée's wedding, she has no excuse not to attend. All of her closest friends will be there, and she doesn't want them pitying her, so to save face she mentions she will be bringing her new girlfriend. The only issue is Tara doesn't have a girlfriend. To sort out what to do, she heads to her favorite café, where she blurts the whole story to Holly, a waitress who has had her eye on Tara since her breakup. Holly is desperate to escape her mother's matchmaking and avoid going home for the holidays, so attending a Christmas wedding with Tara is the perfect excuse. Their very real mutual attraction makes the ruse all the more believable. As feelings begin to develop, there's one thing keeping the couple apart: Tara is looking to settle down and Holly doesn't do commitment. While the main characters share plenty of chemistry, the love story feels entirely predictable and relatively mild. This is best suited for Greer's diehard fans. (Aug.)
