Marry the girl I’ve had a crush on my whole life? Check.
Inherit a hundred-billion-dollar company? Check.
Produce an heir… Wait,
what?
I have ninety days to knock up my brand-new fake wife.
There’s only one problem—she hates my guts.
And in the fine print of the contract? The requirement that
we produce an heir.
She can’t stand to be in the same room with me. Says she’ll
never be in my bed.
But I’ve never backed down from a challenge and I’m not
about to start now.
Mark my words—I’ll have her begging for me, and it won’t
take ninety days.
On the heels of her smash hit and New York Times bestselling
SCREWED series, Kendall Ryan brings you HITCHED, a romantic comedy that
delivers heart and heat. A NYC playboy turned business mogul has ninety days to
win over the woman he's always desired in order to save his father's company.
One tiny problem: She hates his guts.

Globug's Review
Noah Tate: great looks, huge cock, charm oozes from his pores but he also happens to be a man-whore. I'm not a huge fan of guys with Noah's player status but when I discovered in the first chapter that he's had feelings for Olivia since childhood and she's the only girl he would never consider taking advantage of I really hopeful about being able to love him.
First impression of Olivia wasn't great either. She comes across at first as a stone cold bitch. I think secretly she harbors hurt feelings over Noah not taking her virginity when she gave him the chance.
Noah and Olivia have been groomed since childhood to take of their family business but they never expected their fathers to insist in their wills that they must get married to each other to claim their inheritance. A modern day arranged marriage? For Noah it's like a gift. He gets the woman he's always wanted but could never have. For Olivia, the closet romantic, it's like giving up her dreams of being swept off her feet by her forever love. For both of them, the interminable success of their family's legacy is the most important goal.
I loved that Olivia had Noah convinced she was immune his charm when she actually warmed up to him more and more with each of their encounters. Their trial run at courting was funny but with lots of sexual tension. I was happy to feel like Noah was also a closet romantic. For Olivia he was protective, loyal and tenderhearted. In this first volume of the Hitched series you really get to see the heart Noah has let very few people see. Olivia begins to thaw but with the cliff hanger ending it's clear she may be hiding something very big. I can't wait for volume 2.

EXCERPT:
"That’s
the whole point of doing this trial period—to see how well we can play ball
together before committing to a team-up. I’m doing my best to become friends
with you, so . . .”
He tilts his
head with a half smile. “Just friends? I’ve got my sights set a little higher.”
Gee, I never
would have guessed, what with his constant attempts to steer the conversation
toward sex.
I quirk one
eyebrow in skepticism. “Friendship is all we need to pull this thing off. And
we’re pretty much starting from square one . . . I would call us acquaintances,
at best. Don’t you think you’re being a little overambitious?”
“Nope,” he
replies, cocky smile still firmly in place.
I roll my
eyes. “Wow. Your arrogance truly has no limits.”
“If I can
put my money where my mouth is . . .” His lustful smirk makes it clear exactly
where he’d like to put his mouth. “Then it’s not arrogance. Just confidence.”
“What makes
you think I would want more with you, anyway? You aren’t exactly my type.”
I expect him
to just give me a knowing look, or maybe toss back some mild innuendo. What I
absolutely did not expect was, “Because I have a nine-inch cock.”
I almost
choke on my martini for a third time. I splutter, “Is that number supposed to
impress me?”
3"
I give him a
skeptical look. “You want to show me your dick?”
“If it’ll
help convince you.” He drains the last drops of his Scotch and stands up. “Come
on, let’s go.”
I stare
after him as he walks away.
Is he
serious? He’s just going to whip it out? I look around to see if anyone is
watching me, then I get up and follow him to the bar’s back hallway, near the
restrooms, unable to comprehend why the hell I’m humoring him. This is
ridiculous.
Once we’re
safely in a private corner, Noah undoes his belt, opens his fly . . . and pulls
out a fucking fire hose.
Holy mother
of God. My hands fly to my mouth. I want to gasp in shock, but there’s no way
I’m giving him the upper hand.
He was
right. His cock is nothing short of massive, and it’s not even fully erect
right now. Nine inches may actually be a conservative estimate of what it might
look like hard. He must destroy men’s egos every time he walks into a locker
room. And I don’t even want to think about what he destroys with women . . .
“Meh. I’ve
seen bigger,” I force out, fighting to maintain my composure.
Noah
chuckles. “I don’t think so, sweetheart.”
“Well,
th-that monster is not coming anywhere near my uterus. No, thank you. I prefer
to keep my organs intact.”
Noah’s grin
widens. “I doubt that, but just to be on the safe side, I’ll ease it in nice
and slow. Piece of cake. Plus, you’ve got good health insurance, right?”
“That is not
funny, Noah. Now, put that thing away or I’ll remove it.”
I try to
sound stern, but my shaking voice and bright red cheeks surely give me away.
Why the hell can’t I stop staring?
He
chuckles—yeah, the jerk can definitely see right through me—but he obliges,
tucking the beast back into its lair.
