GRR Reviews Arm Candy (Hot City Nights) by Patricia Ryan


Arm Candy is "ingenue / fake girlfriend falls for real to their pretend BF" and a pretty standard one. Some aspects feel forced.

Nora Armstrong is an ingenue from Midwest and when her best cousin asked her to help him out as arm candy to a fundraiser he's trying to pitch ideas to, she can't refuse. The fundraiser is David Waite, a British fundraiser who was tired of social climbers and users that flooded the events he attended, so he hires arm candy to ward them off with neither emotional nor sexual strings attached. He did not count on meeting Nora, who was both innocent and seductive at the same time. When circumstances forced them to continue their faux relationship... David changed the rules... as both had fallen for each other... but Nora lied... she wasn't a model, she's just an artist. Will David ever forgive her?

Nora was seductive without trying despite being an ingenue out of Midwest that a British gent, who hired arm candy all the time can't stay away? Hmmm... a bit far-fetched, IMHO. The rest of the romance is okay, but nothing special. The British guy didn't act very British. All in all, average romance.
