Wife for Hire was a bit over the top, but I really enjoyed it. I loved the combination of the fake relationship and this kind of minor suspense plot. Of course, Liddy and Owen fall in love during all of this chaos, and it is extremely fast. But I liked how they actually got to know each other a lot. They had to get to know each other before pretending to be a couple, and then the retreat itself forced them to learn more about each other as part of the daily activities. Not to mention there's a lot of harbored lust as they share a bedroom!
The ending of Wife for Hire is very rushed, but that didn't make me like it any less. It's a short read, so no need to drag everything out needlessly. I found the conman's plan to be very clever (and despicable), and he would have gotten away with it if it weren't for that meddling fake couple!
