Fiancé for Hire
Neither of them was looking for love, but that was before they met each other.
As a professional model and actor, Drevon Ross lives a life of luxury. Now he’s ready for his next role—movie producer. But first, he needs to deal with his personal life, something that became way too public months ago, thanks to his ex-girlfriend. He wants to lay low for a while. Unfortunately, that can’t happen, thanks to his matchmaking aunt and her belief that he’d be the perfect arm candy for a particular woman who needs his help.
Former WNBA player Antika Wilcox doesn’t want a man. Her heart has been crushed too many times. But as life would have it, she needs one to pretend he’s madly in love with her. When she hires a guy through At Your Service, Antika gets more than she requested. He’s mouthwatering, gorgeous…and way out of her league. No one will believe they are a couple.
With Drevon’s acting skills and Antika’s guarded heart, what starts out as make-believe turns oh-too-real very quickly.

Loved this Men for Hire trilogy by three of my fav authors. Antika and Drevon was a very fun read. They went from hired date, to fiancée, to pregnant, to marriage.

🔥 Hot the Nth Degree
The chemistry was off the chain from beginning to end in this story. Glad the characters were able to get pass their fears of finding love again. Hooray for second chances at love.

The book was an amazing read, and the guy on the cover was the icing on my proverbial cake. The story was snarky, sexy and really sweet. I need to hire this man to be my real fiancé. Lol…

Fiancé For Hire!!!
Antika and Drevon had gone rough times in their relationships, especially the last ones that they were in. Antika needs a plus one to take to a couple of events that she plans to attend. At her bestie's urging, she goes to At Your Service seeking a date who will help her out. Drevon is who is tapped to handle the dates. As they begin spending time together, one thing leads to another and what starts as a fake relationship ends up with them having real feelings for each other. I loved the way they got to know one another first which made it hard for them to resist the fire that built up between them until it finally boiled over. I was glad that they didn't go through the usual angst most couples do except for one little hiccup and they ended up with their happily ever after. I did not feel sorry for Edward AT ALL. His trifling self got what he deserved. Kendall was the worst too. I didn't understand her thought process AT ALL. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and you need to dive into it as well.

Fabulous Romance
This story made me so happy. It's flawed, yet it's the perfect romance novel. The author gave you every reason to fall in love with the characters and to see how they belonged together.
I loved the romance, but the true connection built between Antika and Drevon was the magic. The way they spoke to each other and treated one another... The sex scene were steamy, but they were moving because they were emotionally based. So well done!
I did some editing in my head (the word that is over-used), but the story is captivating. It's not a new plot, but it's beautifully crafted with charming players and a moving story. It's well paced and enjoyable to read.
I'm looking forward to reading the rest of this series and to discover more from Sharon C. Cooper. If all her books are as lovely as this, she has a dedicated fan in me!

Talk about chemistry from the beginning. Even though when Antika and Drevon met it was nope, I’m not doing this from her part and him thinking no you can’t con me into being someone’s hired date. But once these characters really know each other there’s so much chemistry and so much fire.
One of my favorite conversations in the novel was a text exchange as a characters are getting to know each other prior to their first big date. It shows how much they have in common with both of them having a great sense of humor. I also love how quickly Drevon defended Antika against her chauvinistic ex.
In the end, when Drevon told Edward-man don’t 🤬with me. Don’t let this pretty fool you. If you step to my woman or repeat what you think you heard , I’m gonna your life miserable. 😡. He stepped into Edward.
There HEA was well deserved and sweet (marriage and a baby). 🥰

Whew Chile!!!
This book was “off the charts!!” I absolutely loved Antika and Drevon’s journey! What started out as a hired plus one, ended up being a very real romantic relationship! Because of Antika’s past relationships with men, especially with Edward, she was always doubting herself. Then in walks Drevon to the rescue! What they didn’t expect, was to actually fall in love with each other. They were so right for each other. I’m just glad Edward got just what he deserved! I must say that this book gave me all the feels! Thank you so much Sharon Cooper for this most amazing book!! I can’t wait to dig into the next book in the series! Which is what I’m going to do right now! This book was 🔥🔥🔥❤️!!!

Great Read 📚 👏🏾 ✨️❣️
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Dre and Antika were fun, sexy, sweet and genuine. I loved their journey and openness with themselves and friends and eventually each other. Their chemistry felt real and intimate. The sexy scenes gave what they were supposed to give. The crazy exes were wild and unnecessary. Edward got what he deserved but Kendall should've caught hands! I liked them individually as well as they were both solid people who were blessed enough to find each other in an unconventional way. This was a great read 📚 👏🏾 ✨️ ❣️

Never Knew Love Like This
This story of Drevon and Antika was so sweet. They connected immediately from the their first meeting to discuss the contract. They both knew their heart wouldn't be the same due the chemistry they generated when together or apart. Throw in the friends with a sense of humor and you have a great story. Congratulations Sharon C. Cooper on writing another great story.

Another great read by Author Sharon C Cooper. Fiancé for Hire is the first book I read in this new series. Definitely ☕️☕️☕️☕️rating.
Drevon and Antika have both been burned in relationships and not looking for love but when they meet each other… it’s hard not to. I enjoyed their friendship to lust to hot chemistry which lead to real love. They are exactly what each other needs and wants.
I’m looking forward to reading the next two books in the series.

Fiancé for hire
This was a cute book. The story kept my attention from beginning to end. Antika was relatable but I didn’t like how she put Dre on a pedestal and didn’t think she was good enough. I loved that he helped her see she was enough and helped her restore some of the confidence she had lost from past relationships. I loved Dre’s character and how he showed his feelings through actions and words when necessary.

Professional Model and Actor Drevon Ross is enjoying the single like and life of luxury. His matching Aunt asks him to do her a favor and be a pretend fiancé for Antika Wilcox. It did not go well when she first met him. She insisted he was not her type. After thinking about it, she decided to go out with him. But Drevon was immediately drawn to her. She was her own person which he loved. In the end they both realized they were perfect for one another.

Lovely!
As usual Sharon, I loved the flow of the story from beginning to end. I love their meet cute where she was not interested because of his demeanor on first sight. You know what they say don't judge a book by it's cover, but because of her circumstances I'm glad she chose wisely. If she didn't Anyka would've been still beginning instead of having a happy ending. What a lovely story of opposites attracting. Renee G

I decided to attack my TBR stack before the end of the year and this novel did not disappoint. The interaction between Antika and Drevon was well developed. The banter between the two as good. I was glad to see the characters from the other Men for Hire novels mentioned. It was entertaining and I loved that the heroine was a thick girl who caught the attention of the fine hero. I recommend reading this if you want to laugh and enjoy a good read.

You know this is just what I needed. This book was a quick fun and heartwarming read, I felt like I may have been heading towards a reading slump and this book pulled me out of it. I really enjoyed reading the story, I had a great experience. Sharon C. Cooper, you are now officially one of my new favorite romance authors and I can’t wait to read more of your work. I highly recommend everyone check this book out, you’re in for a great time.

I loved Anika and Drevon's story! Everything about thing about this couple was fun, sexy and mature. Aunt Vi hit the nail on the head matching these two up. I enjoyed how carefree they were with each other and was happy when they finally admitted their true feelings for each other. I did not want their story to end. Thank you for another wonderful story, Sharon C. Cooper!!

Fiance for hire
Good book, too bad these type of services are fiction. T and Dre are people that deserve each other. Beauty is often found in various places in a person. I've heard some people are drawn to ones hands, a small area behind the ear, but the attraction is what it is. Love the book.

I loved this story because it's about a woman over 30 who wasn't looking for love but found it and more. I recommend this book to everyone who has felt that love wasn't in the cards for them.

I love this series! Antika needs a plus one and decides to hire someone. When she and Drevon meet, she tells him that he isn't her type. She discovers how wrong she was. I love their chemistry, and there are some LOL moments in the book.

So Good!
I really enjoyed Drevon and Antika. I must say slight spoiler alert. I Kew in the beginning that they were commenting on the status of the arrangement in the public where anyone could overhear the secret. But I'm really glad that it worked out. I'm am enjoying the series.

I like this book because it lets you see that if you hold on to your beliefs and have faith that things that you think are never going to happen will if you wait and see.

Great read
Great read, I enjoyed the characters and storyline. Antika wanted an escort to a few parties. She was matched with Drevon by his aunt. What started as a date for hire became a strong attraction. This is Antika and Drevon’s journey to love.
